I do not share your optimism/enthusiasm about the progress of the game. It's now 1 year since the game was released & still many players cannot play the game on medium level machines, even those that meet the officialy advertised minimum specs. There are only a paultry number of player online in multi-players servers. There has been no indication that the dev's are correcting some of the fundemental flaws in the game. By this I do not mean FM's or minor cockpit graphic errors, I mean basic game elements that just don't work. (see http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=29858 ). A miriad of (sometimes fatal)online server console errors (server admins will know what I mean), indicating many flaws in the game code. Random launcher disconnections from the game. We don't even have proper skins on stationary aircraft, or have working air-raid sirens. There's no sign of any SDKs being released. There's no sign of a propper DCG, and the list goes on.

I would agree with you if the developers weren't working on the sim, but thats not the case. COD was just released unfinished and unoptimized so there are going to be a myriad of problems. A major hurdle will be address soon with the optimizations in the next patch. I would assume the patch will include some of the FM, AI, changes, or they might want the new graphics optimizations be tested by the community before introducing any other changes. There is a long list of work that has to be done, so it going to take time. I don't have a problem as I would much rather have an unfinished WIP sim than a cancelled sim.
