Thanks for the update!
Good to know how things are progressing. I've been hesitant to pick up the game so far but in the new year I fully intend to. It sounds like things are coming together for both Cliffs of Dover and the sequel. IL-2 was a bit of a troubled release too and Forgotten Battles really hammered things in to a great simulation as have all of the additions since then. If Battle of Moscow rights things and keeps us rolling along with the great content already in Cliffs plus enhancements then I think we're going to be in great shape! In a few years we'll be back to the point where one online server can serve multiple scenarios and theaters... and consequently and all sorts of fun! That's what I'm looking forward to.

Some of you people really are a piece of work.
We are where we are, deal with it like mature adults. |

On a serious note, Ilya ...
Hello Ilya!
You have known about me for a few years now and you know the pedantry I can descend into when it comes to certain facts. But despite my very own pet issues I do try to keep a look at the "larger picture" and it is indeed rather dark ATM - and that's saying something. I'm usually no pessimist and I am not a hater, but recently things have taken a turn that does make me doubt the validity of some business decisions and company policies. Quote:

So this is my impression of the state of things when you posted that certain "features" will be postponed until the sequel. Even for me, and I am not short of a €, this does a lot to increase the WTF? state of mind I'm finding myself in WRT CloD. Are you seriously expecting the customers just to shrug and swallow that they'll have to pay yet another full game price just to get features which were promised for Clod (some features which I personally regard as vital for any game like a decent campaign mode)? Are you really expecting us to shrug off the total omission of the Royal Navy? My point is that switching full-throttle to the production of the sequel, given the way things are ATM, is indeed quite a slap into the face of customers who have bought the product in good faith, customers who were looking for a good representation of the Battle of Britain with all its phases. |

Whatever the reason is, I just don't see these serious problems anymore in Windows7. If the development team is currently using lots of effort to support many operating systems and versions of DirectX, maybe they could consider increasing game's minimum requirements in order to speed up development - for BattleOfMoscow? CoD was supposed to work in WinXP, but I'm not so sure if this will ever really happen.

The software was a complete mess at release (at a certain point it still is...): I have paid almost 50€ for a download, as a customer I wasn't expecting anything different... Well actually I was, never in my dreams I have thought CloD was going to be launched in such a state. After 7 months I have launcher crashes all the time, planes flying with no wings/tails, lack of AA and really poor performance/optimization specially for us, ATI users.
I can understand that... But looking at the recent past since CloD launch, only a prequel (paid of course) like the Battle of France would have made me understand MG way of running things... If we are talking of a ETO sequel, there's no logic whatsoever! (except financial... maybe). |
