I am in no way saying that the release and subsequent months following the release of this game wasn't a monumental cluster****. Only the people making the game would have the truest of understanding as to how that happened.

It's for that reason why I made the post. The game was released in a complete garbage state. PRE-alpha, many have said. A lot of companies would have, could have, packed it up, counted it as a loss, and started working on something else.

The fact is, this new team seems determined to rebuild the name that is IL2. You can moan and gripe all you want about woulda-coulda-shoulda...it takes a looooonnng time for a dev team on what must be a shoestring budget (this isn't Modern Warfare here, guys) to take a completely broken game of this complexity and turn it into a bonafied sim.

And for that, I think we should all take a moment to thank them for sticking with it and trying to give us what we all had hoped for in the first place. That only implies passion and dedication to the niche market of WWII combat flight simulation on the PC platform.

Forgive, forget, move on, look to the future, all that stuff. It may run like crap on older machines...it runs OK at best on my lil' powerhouse I have...but the devs are making it better. Plus, they are giving us exactly what we asked for in the form of weekly updates to show us how they're making it better. I can think of only a handful of companies out there that do that, so we should all appreciate it. Play RoF in the meantime if you can't stomach it. I for one am just happy that this thing isn't dead.

So, I repeat, go team!
