If the "complete rewrite of the engine" was such a great deal, then tell me why it didn't solve any of the problems like micro stutter, performance hit by particle, cloud and grass? We got bit more fps, bit fewer micro stutter, performance hit by particle cloud and grass still there.

Features that caused the hickups were taken out and when we get more fps it's the "complete rewrite of the engine" ? Seriously ...

That's the really frustrating part...we will wait another three to four weeks for another alpha and it won't be much different from what we have now...bank on it.

Class Action Lawsuit anyone? When we purchased this game we were under the impression that this game worked! Now it seems like they are abandoning it for the sequel and week after week we hear the same thing. Who wants their money back?

Now it seems like they are abandoning it for the sequel

the sequel depends on COD being fixed, the sequel will use the COD engine, they can make the content for the sequel 'without' interfering with the progress on the fix for COD because 3d modellers and artists 'do not' write code.

Particles will always cause a hit to performance. The more there are in a scene, the lower the frame-rates. You can manage this by lowering graphics settings.

If the patch doesn't comes next week then mabe the week after.

The real life gives soo much more fun as a computer game, which could be written of as bad experience after all, if it comes to the worst case.

As long as the devs are still working on it, nothing is lost.

Tell me something robtek ... how the hell did You get senior member status on this forum ... by flying or writing ?

Thanks Blacksix for the update. The Lag-5 looks good and will obviously lead to a progressive update of this excellent fighter type.

Going back to Ilya's earlier comments about updating the series COD and BOM, it was my understanding that both Battle scenario's will use the same engine therefore when BOM is released with the Ju88A-4, you can fly this aircraft in COD etc. etc.

Hopefully BOM will release a Bf109F-2 which you could fly in COD, although to keep COD alive with the next phase after the Battle of Britain, from a marketing point of view, it would be excellent to see a Spitfire V, Typhoon and Focke Wulf 190A-2 or A3 released. The Typhoon was sadly left out of the old series and would be an ideal aircraft to have for the progression of the Western Front air battles.

I have been out of the scene for a while without a computer, I now have an excellent setup and am progressively updating some of my campaigns with a lot of new mission building scripting information. Sadly it has been a 'trial and error' progression without proper instructions, hopefully something has been written for BOM.

I am still enjoying COD, with all its faults it is still a mighty sim. In the Campaign mission building area I am finding out more and more every day which make the missions even better. Hopefully with the new patch to be released soon, things will get even better for COD - they will have to!

Uninstalled CLOD about a month ago, I just come back here when I'm bored and out of . to read.

No sequel for me, for sure.
