[QUOTE=Anders_And;457626]My system has run CLoD like butter from day one, but thanks for your concern. I have never had a problem with stutters, crashes, etc. My issues have always been the lack of features, content, stupid AI, bad sounds or no sounds, vibrating shadows, popping up scenery; 60 second gun bursts from AI, no QMB like IL2, and on and on and on.

The problem is not COD, the problem is the game engine. Changing the name of the sim, map, and aircraft isn't going to make anything better. They are not going to build a new game engine, as that would take years. If they were building a new game engine they certainly wouldn't be allocating resources to patch the existing game engine. They must fix the existing game engine. No one is going to buy a Sequel or MMO unless the game engine is fixed. A fixed game engine means a fixed COD, and a Sequel/MMO that they will be able to sell. This latest patch is critical, if they can't stabilize and fix the performance for average computers there will be no point in fixing all the other issues. This is probably one of the reasons they delayed the announcement until they're sure the performance issues are fixed, and they can move forward.

I don't normally engage in these threads, but I think you are spot on. Also, if BoM is released with the tools for making user-made content that we saw in development shots, then fixing things like the BoB map may simply be outsourced to the community, whom I think will do that splendidly.

I am actually very excited about BoM, and I am fairly sure the dev team do not have the option to deliver a bad product if they want to keep their company afloat.

I still have a little hope that 1C will manage to make accurate and historical flight model and performance of CLoD planes.

You are not alone ;)

A month of daily air battles is scarring even surviving UK pilots; their reaction times are down by 1/5th of a second, lethal in combat.

RAF pilots, exhausted, on edge & uncertain of survival, try to forget the war with alcohol: "When we're not in the air, we're plastered."

1 RAF pilot, hearing Churchill's comment "Never was so much owed by so many to so few", jokes: "He must be thinking of our mess bills."

@B6

Would it help to send the dump-files from steam for debugging?

Don't get me wrong here. I'm not talking about the dump-files from "...\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\cppcrash\".

I mean the dump-files from "...\steam\dumps\", like "assert_launcher.exe_20120831210412_1.dmp".

BS have you any news?

BlackSix,

Could you please answer my question with regards to Sli/Crossfire support. Luthier stated way back in April 2011 that it was their next big priority, that was 17 months ago. What is happening with this. This is the reply that I see: -

So, you really want to talk to each other and of course this is the unique thread on the forum where you can do this. Ok, no problem. The thread is unstuck and opened.

I have no time to clean the flame and offtopic every day and try to find the rare questions.

Don't think that this sort of reply is very helpful with questions that are genuine and are asked in good faith.
