Promise?

AoA, they say they will finish with it. It's not a finished game by an offliners standards like mine and Kendo's certainly.

There's a big difference. Before you and Force started arguing, my last post corroborated what Kendo just wrote to show that the situation between Il-2 and CloD is quite different.

Here's the original GameSpot review: http://uk.gamespot.com/il-2-sturmovi...eview-2829773/

Now look at CloD's: http://uk.gamespot.com/il-2-sturmovi...eview-6308918/

The score has more than halved. So a sim that scores so low is worthy to proceed with? It's improved since then, but only so that it can run better and look better. The content that's been added is extremely minimal.

This, really, is our point. Unless this sim morphs into the perfect BoB sim with the next patch, the team's position with BoM won't be as tangible as it could have been. I really want BoM to do well. I think the SDK can solve a lot of issues, but you're fooling yourself if you believe that this sim is the finished product.

AoA, this discussion isn't about understanding Luthier's perception on the sequels. Everyone understands that. It's interpreting the situation and seeing how it really compares to the example Luthier uses, of Il-2, to show that actually the similarities are only clear at first glance, but fall apart under careful analysis.

Don't let Ace get to you folks. He is well practiced in the art of duochebaggery, and he ignores facts in a conversation and just chops out a quote that he can twist some sort of "I'm right" spin on. We all know COD is more or less a punchline rather than a way of life as it is for him. If he upsets you, just ignore his ludicrous comments, we all know he is grasping at straws while he and the sim he has been defending circles the drain with each anouncement.

Again, if you want to change the topic at hand.. Be my guest

But my answer to you delt specifcally with the 'aproach' that 1C took with IL-2 with regards to sequals.. And how Luither said they plan on using the same 'aproach' with CoD

Where each sequal includes the previouse version of the game..

As in all the planes, maps, features, etc.

And the sequal adds to it (planes, maps, features, etc)

Hope that helps!

It is easy to spot the person that does not have an intellectual argument to address the topic at hand..

Just look for the guy that has to resort to attacking the messenger..

Why?

Because he knows he can not attack the message! ;)

Wow! this thread has derailed so much they should rename it to "Rotten stuff from the dumpster".

MMO may change the old add-on approach. But engine remains mostly the same probably. Hope for SDK.

He keeps repeating himself....

Only becase you keep doing it
