Default How about some more content for CloD

Some new content would be nice, DLC is not a new thing anymore. I guess the reason is that they have too much to deal with, with CloD and upcoming BoM. Instead of making an expansion they should have - IMO - just kept fixing CloD and creating content for it. It's the same thing as an expansion but they drip feed instead so the game stays fresh and they get a nice continuous stream of dough coming in. I know a lot of people are hating on DLC but if all it took for a new map and a few more flyables was 10-15€, I'd gladly pay that. Let's face it, BoM will basically be a DLC collection pack but they are selling it as a stand-alone expansion.

On the other hand I can see why they are selling it as a stand-alone expansion, after all who would buy CloD after all the negative reviews just so they can install BoM on top of it? Yes, you would, banana boy but not average Joe. It's a conscious decision that they have made so I'm not holding my breath for any DLC at all, just throwing it out there. They've put all their eggs in one basket, let's hope it doesn't break, eh.

P.S Happy Orthodox Easter to the dev team

Slightly off topic but it'd be really nice if there was the option to download campaigns, missions and mods using the steam workshop feature that Skyrim uses, at least then new community created stuff would be visible instead of being hidden in various forums around the internet.

S!

+1 to Dano's suggestion. Nothing is more frustrating than to chase a mod or file all over the internet.

Very much agreed, CLOD for me needs a few more new things just to keep it fresh, a new plane here or there wouldn't hurt, would keep the game fresh in people's minds on steam and give dribs and drabs of income

If any of you are into offline campaigns, I can recommend Wick vs. Dundas by desastersoft. In version 2.0 they have added a career mode with promotions, medals and what not.

They have now an English version available for download, even a demo. http://www.desastersoft.com/en/downloads.html

Me too, I'd be happy if they just could slap a cockpit on some of the planes that are already in the game, like the Cr.42, Defiant, Walrus etc. I know it takes time to do it though and I guess they just don't have the resources.

I really don't know why it wasn't done sooner. Watch this, its almost complete just probably needs the cockpit

A cockpit takes one person 6 months apparently. Those resources are being used for BoM I assume.

Luthier has also stated that AI flight models use simplified engine management, so that would need to be done.
