Comparisons to Rise of Flight

[bongodriver]

I've also Slovakia in 1946, with superb textures, much better than what i've in CoD now. With low setting this engine should have been at least like IL2 at maximum, and it's not....is worst than IL2.

So, yes...fanboys.

one would ask why you would bother buying COD if IL2 completely 'floats your boat', who is a IL2 fanboy?

I think theres alot of people who think their clique simming communities are under threat from a new boy because inevitably people will move on to something new, so they are trying to kill it.

For me the game is playable at maximum settings. That obviously doesn't help the contless people that are having problems, but it does show that the screenshot Sven posted is achievable and hopefully we'll all be there one day.

It's still a sign of the Apocalypse for the old as we move into the new. Progress. You can't stop it. This ship has set sail already. You cannot turn back the clock hands. It's a steady progression of things like this. Remember Pong? That was all the rage for a long time.

I am only stating a fact of life. Everything changes. Everything has a life until something comes a long that catches the attention of what is called "the invisible hand of the market".

8 Track players. Beta VCR's. VHS Tapes. Now the iPad and so on. It's the market. It goes from the old into the new.

Just stating that regardless of it being people looking for help or not its still a sign of where we're going. Nothing more. You don't have to like it or accept it.

It's still the way things work. The sooner I accepted this as a truism the happier and more able I was to adjust to the change.

Exactly the same i said to all my team and friends of italian SEOW community and not only: "It's time to look forward, and CoD will be the next step for WW2, as Rise of Flight is for WW1. Oleg can't fail so CoD will be superb....not worst than RoF, better than IL2....so a great succes, be sure". There is people, as you say, that (was) is afraid about the IL2's end, the same people who refused to donwload for ex. the RoF demo. This is true.

But now.......after purchasing CoD, i've to admit i was totally wrong.

Oleg is gone and for my opinion this game has not future at all.

I hope to be wrong, as i was wrong when i was waiting for it like the definitve WW2 simulation.

The next time i hope to see however more supporters than fanboys.

Pong looked like crap on our black and white tv. HUGE difference when we upgraded to color. It was like I was actually there.

That doesn't make real sense. what you perceive as fanboys are just supporters, but you are little bitter about it, the game hasn't been out long enough to have a true fanbase.
