S!

Interesting read. Some answers clearly were a snap to the community as community is not always that correctly behaving either. But would like to point out the AI is still crap, worth nothing but be a target drone. Communications are, well as stated, bits and pieces it seems. Planes do still disappear at certain distances or are VERY vague.

For the bomber guys I really hope the "LOD circle" with popping trees and buildings will be fixed as for them it is a pain to align correctly when target is visible like seconds before drop when flying higher up.

I am sure devs want the Battle for "insert Russian town here" be correct and not a CoDish fiasco as if they launch a failcake decipting "great patriotic war" in Russia they will be lynched by the angry mob within a week. Anything related to that era sells there more than weed in a campus Look at WoT subscriptions, in Russia 3-4 times than in rest of world.

Anyways..Seems we will be stuck with CoD as it is almost and then waiting for the next installment of the series. If any kind of SDK is released that will help some to revive CoD, if it is comprehensive enough. Thanks for the answers Luthier, awaiting for the next post with answers

I'm confused. Will CloD & the squeal be merged / compatible? i.e if i buy the sequel will i see its benefits when playing in a BoB scenario.

I'll reserve judgement until the Steam released patch. But it does not sound great, time will tell.

The sequel will incorporate all the CoD content (hopefully improved as per the improvements coming with BoM). So, you get BoM and CoD as well. But it won't install into or on top of CoD.

That's how it worked with Il-2 and its sequel Il-2FB. FB had all the content of Il-2 + Finland and Hungary.

Definitely not planning to release any sequel features as add-ons for Cliffs of Dover, sorry.
Really need an answer to this. Are you saying that CLOD and the Sequel will not merge together the way Forgotten Battles and Pacific Fighters did?

I guess we'll have access to the CoD maps and aircraft in the sequel. What else matters? I wouldn't miss the interface.

Some really disapointing things (see Mysticpumas post) which shouldn´t come in such a tone...

Some honesty on the other side...

Better make that sequel good.

Luthier, your recent RC patch has done nothing towards fixing the netcode, please fly online one night yourself and try it, I know the game is depressing but we have to put up with why dont you have a go, you may learn something.
