Jason from 777 has said that they have nothing to do with CLOD. They don't have access to the code base and they don't have the rights to it.

Contacting 1C is the only avenue people should pursue if they want CLOD to be DRM free. But I very much doubt that 1C will do anything.

Get some one not in Oz to gift you it on steam, then send them the 10 dollars or what ever the exchange rate is via paypal...

Problem solved...

Well, so far I've just got no responses from the people there. I wasn't really looking forward to posting there, though - I don't know how I feel about BoS, given that 1-C dropped support for it so that the devs could "force" people over to BoS. I figured that if I didn't say something along those lines, I wouldn't get lynched, haha. But maybe I still will, if they hate CoD that much.

Use this "20$" to buy RoF scarf or planes, "Lions/Eagles" for War Thunder or save to buy Il-2 BoS - "The Redemption".
I don't really like RoF, WT is ok as a very basic (modelling-wise) "sim" (it's really a game, though) and as I said, I currently don't like the idea of BoS because CoD was abandoned. Plus, every combat sim I've played has had unrealistically awesome Russian aircraft and unrealistically mediocre German aircraft at the start, until people complain enough that it gets patched. If they follow this tradition, but also abandon BoS early, the Russians will always win (I think I'm only half serious about that...)

Awesome! I'll look that up now. I'm usually able to play (often online too), but it would be nice to know that I could keep playing it after 30 days of no internet. Thanks

Well, I post over at the BoS forums occasionally and check em at least once a day, I don't see a lot of anger at CloD or it's fans, they are just very clear (the moderators) that the usual pissing and moaning won't be put up with.

Frankly, I would not let the 1C/777 situation taint your view of the product they make, who knows, maybe it will end up being really good and then you will have missed out on it.

Anyway, everyone has personal feelings about the whole thing that seem to run pretty deep, I personally think there are so few good flight sims that it never hurts to just say screw it and enjoy them all for what they are

Well, except War Thunder, I don't do F2P MMO's :p

So a AI bombing? I am pretty sure that most sims (and even non-sims) can do that.

Perhaps I missed something specific? If so, please tell me what I am supposed to be seeing.

Please note, not trying to be snide or whatever, I am actually curious.

Everyone is different Mike and see thing's that they like or dislike. There would be no point of me to explain what would be cool to me. but I am looking forward to the new game and will certainly give it a try

There is no one left here that could answer the questions asked by him "plans to release a DRM-free"...he has a better shot over there with their access to the 1C front office

B6 is still here. Whether he would answer is another matter. I wouldn't bother going to il2 net for anything to do with CoD, as its a totally different game being developed by a different company.
Go to ATAG, install the TF patch, and enjoy.
