A request for more features to make IL-2 a better game, not just better software.

First the argument was NO coops..

Than someone wrote the script that allowed coops..

Now the argument is PROPER coops..

Which only proves to me that if 1C did include a coop like menu 'someone' would still find issues with it

But to answer your question, I would welcome it and love it if they could provide both the old DF/COOP along with the new MISSION methods.. But not if it meant we had to give up some of the new features the new MISSION methods provide.. Why? Well because I like the idea of having more immersive missions to play.. I am one that welcomes advancements and not stuck in one way of doing things

I think both would be good, the devs could simply add some more preset triggers/scripts to the ones we already have in the FMB to choose from. Also implementing a coop interface for those who likes that couldn't be so hard since CloD has a .net framework. I'm all for the new possibilities with the "mixed" dogfight/coop servers like ATAG, I fly on that more than ever now but I also like the old style coops, why can't one have/like both? It's not like anyone wants to take anything away here. Time will tell how many people will migrate to CloD and also how quickly with the current online framework that the game has.

P.S If luthier is serious about "crushing" the competition he'd better start making user friendly interfaces because the competition has thousands of online players and they're all used to click on the single "instant battle" button. Free advice for you luthier, "instant action" = instant cash.

Exactly, were asking for the COOP GUI for CLOD.
We want the ease of use of the GUI menus with the triggers and fancy stuff of CLOD.

The stats were created at the end of a mission in a file that held all the info, that file could be uploaded to a website that then could be viewed by all the pilots that took part.

In VEF online war the stats would be added after each mission and your pilot history would be kept up to date with kills, deaths, missions, ground kills and time flown.

you really wanted to keep your pilot alive and keep and it made you fly much more like real life.

Back in the days someone had to write the code to parse the log file for statistics. Now you need someone who that creates the mission script to write the log file on his own and than parse it for statistics.
I can assure you, every programmer is happy if he doesn't need to parse the predefined log file but is able to create his own, with his own content and format. That makes the parsing much more easy. Writing the log really is the easiest part of it.

Problem is that there are to few people that get creative and produce "customer created content" for the sim. People are spoilt and spent more time complaining in the forum instead of getting creative and finds ways to work around the issues and enjoy the good parts.

I dont get it, are people saying we shouldn't be asking for useful features that would help CLOD be more popular?

[41Sqn_Banks]

No, we should ask. But then we have to go on and use what we got so far. You want and online war that features a cooperative gameplay style and statics? Go for it and create one. There are so many ways to cope with the missing coop interface or missing statistics. Just do it.

Inspiring! ...I guess just jump in, get your feet wet and do it. It's not like a person would need to make more than one of them, to meet his needs for many years of use.

Not "people", just "someone"

[ATAG_MajorBorris]

First and foremost, they need to redue the graphics engine then we can get to cool coop gui but Im not sure we need Hyperlobby anymore(I liked it too but why load up somthing CoD allready does..but it might help get the old il2 guys back)

The scoring system, now we need to be able to work with that as well, the old il2 scoring system was much better for full real servers and was condusive to realistic sim play>> 100 points for a kill if you made it home safe--10 points if not--pilots and planes for victory conditions.

Furbs, you should be ashamed. Below is a small sample script of getting co-op to work.It is actually much larger but there is a 50,000 character limit here.

As you can clearly see, it practically writes itself! Not sure why this would discourage any newcomers to the COD family.
