As there are positive and negative sides in CloD I am trying to focus my attention on positive sides in other posts (which is more constructive and helpful) and do not focus my attention on negative destructive side unless specifically asked a question. Then I am trying not to blame anyone, hate anyone or put responsibility for my own personal decision to purchase the game and upgrade my PC on anyone. Describing facts and negatively judging them are different things. Being positive helps to get out of trouble, being negative may cause suicide of CloD (Luthier and/or some team-members quitting).

Maybe this makes my opinion more balanced, sometimes constructive and not an "enemy of the state's" one

Sorry for OT.

In general - I agree with you. Then again, CLOD wasnt advertised as "not finished" or "Soon available for 10 bucks" "Dont buy now for 50!". Never mind. Lets turn the page. Hope better times are ahead.

I corrected the wrong link in the 1st of my above 2 messages. There I wrote my opinion on a similar question asked by Furbs. I may be wrong though but we will not know this for sure.

That resumes it well...And I would add that there are'nt many Developpers out there that have the privilege at a second shot after such a disastrous launch...And so many bad reviews everywhere....
And it is obvious that everyone knows that at 1C...That is why we should be positive and have faith..It is more than a game at stake here for all 1C's gang....
So go for it ! It will be a splendid game this time !

Salute !

Pfft that particular model wasn`t great. It`s where La5F entered the stage it all went FUBAR in the first place.

Will link to this post when the Rata outclimbs, outshoots, and outturns 109 F-2 With caps locked "what did I say" braggings xD

It won`t. That is IF we get a realistic blackout/stick press characteristics. A real pilot would probably never get everything out of a La5F because he would loose his consciousness. This has always been in the top 10 in the biggest Storm of War expectations.

That is what I`m wondering about aswell. And IMO the first game mentioned does look impressive, especially the lightinging.

Other than that I`m not especially happy about Dx11. From what I`ve seen so far, only the strongest cards manage to put out good fps in Dx11 mode. Imagine IL2 using that and we`ve got a 2fps slide show.

Oh lookout! If you didn`t write "maybe" in your sentence they would finally understand the difference.

That is if I`m not too optimistic.

Like I said in a different forum on here that to not give all the engine variants to the fighters (LW and RAF) is BSSSSS. Allow the server to decide how they are going to progress the war. To keep holding this back is a joke and to have only 3 flyable allied plans again makes for less enjoyment and it is why many are now waiting for BOM and this game to be fixed. Because of the crappy release they are scrambling for money instead of fixing said game CLOD and increasing its sales is a shame in marketing. Sales will increase if this small market of simulation junkies start writing on forums about how great it is getting. I think for myself I am tired of this sim looking one sided since no server is flying the 2a. and the Rotol is good however against the 109e1 it is and easy kill for a good 109 pilot.

Last I am looking forward to the update on graphics, but if you are not meeting the promises made prior how are we to have faith in you finishing what you have started. Like I said so many are sitting on the wings with this game and more could be sold if you get your act in gear. Or you could dump it like MS and Aces studio open the sdk and the community will take over and begin to fix this sim. I for one hope you keep it in house and fix it right. But then again that is HOPE!

Good Luck and I will wait patiently till you give us the accurate FM and DM of the day.
