When RoF came out it was extremely limited and ran like crap on most computers and there was a ****storm like you haven't seen before in Russia and outside from hateful whiny complainers... If it was always up to the "glass-half-empty"-people we wouldn't have neither RoF nor CoD, simple as that.

I played RoF a lot until CoD came out. I was actually a staunch defender of RoF back in the difficult early days when so many simmers were delighted to slag and spout hate about the sim, without giving it a chance to improve. I still love it, but unfortunately just have too little time to fly both RoF and CoD. If I had two lives I would be making CoD videos in one and RoF vids in the other! Still buy all the stuff that comes out for RoF, but at heart I'm a little bit more a WWII guy, so my limited time goes to CoD. - Also, I feel that CoD needs a bit more support against the haters, whereas RoF can stand on its own, since it (deservedly) became such a huge success!

I am still amazed at people who don't realise what an ungrateful niche it is to make hi-fidelity flight sims. All the people who work with CoD could do much better making a mindless first-person shooter. CoD is made with huge ambitions, much to big for the development budget, as history has shown, but I'd rather have an ambitious sim that only over time will fulfill its potential (just like Il-2 Classic and RoF) than a small, limited game without growth prospects.

You'll have to go about being disappointed, then, since those ARE your only options.

If i would be so bothered by a game, and I would feel so p***ed,
I wouldnt move around in the games` forum anymore and waste my time.

So what are u still doing here, If you cant get into the game, just leave it.
It cant be the few 50 bugs u spend a few months ago that keep ya here and make ya pesting the moods.

Take the game as it is or leave it, it is like with a dealer around the next corner.
Moaning and trolling about the game is getting more than boring, as we had each opinion and discusison already.

I predict when BOM is released all these questions will be answered.
I know and COMPLETELY agree the game i bought is not what it said on the box.
The only way 1c can fix is with a major rebuild of the whole game.
BOM promissis this.
I for one will wait and see,but remain positve.
Clod is now finished...No more fixes as 1c have stated.
It is what it is....move on,no amount of complants will change this.
Yes I am anoyed as well as everyone else...Now just lets see what the future holds.
Their record with the old sieres was excelent...Give them a chance...dont damm them before there done.
Without guys like this we would still be playing pac man.
Until Then I will play ROF...IMO an almost perfect Sim/Game...but still could do with more engaging missions too.
Keep the faith.

In due time, after BoM has bombed.

With the behaviour of some people on this forum I expect that is something they wish for.

So what are u still doing here...
Amazing logic there, keep rocking.
On the same flow, it's ok for you to visit threads like this but he's not supposed to be on the forum at all?

Maybe you're the owner?
