Everything's in place it is basically complete, all they need to do is optimise the engine and then start work on new aircraft.

That's it we have the new engine yes it's bugged but thats hardly surprising. All we have to do is wait for more content to come along, which it will and like some others on this forum the level of detail in the models, DM and cem have blown me away. I haven't touched 1946 since cod arrived.

I just wish I could fly over London with 60 fps and when we can do that man everyone will finially have to open there eyes and see what a amazing job MG has done.

No, it's not basically complete. It's basically beta. Go to the first page of this thread where luthier has the word BETA, "there are things in the pipline", "not a complete list"...etc. It's all beta now guy. They didn't tell us that when we bought the game. I'm not complaining, that's just reality. There are no 128 plane online battles going on right now. "60fps over London", I don't think the hardware is out yet to do that.

Oh he of little faith and no imagination. :) time will tell.

I don't disagree that they should have delayed the release but all that is missing from cod at present is polish.

If you have so little interest in Cod why don't you spend your time elsewhere instead of moaning?

I'm not moaning and I still have interest in CLoD. Just don't understand how guys can blow off UP 3.0./1946 because of the CEM and DM in CLoD. I just don't get that. Sure it's more realistic, but not that much different. I have flown CLoD 109, so I'm not making this up out of thin air.

You couldn't have flown it for more than 2mins then.

The damage model blows 1946 out of the water around 10 times the number of components that are modelled in 1946 and the sane for cem. I could take off in 2 seconds in 1946 and not have to worry about anything until the temperature warning came up. In cod the first few times I took off I would soon find myself juddering towards Dover and have to turn back before my engine failed. By the end of my time playing 1946 I had turned from a wonder woman flyer to a cockpit on only, but I was not expecting to have to keep my eyes on so many more dials than we currently do.

Now its easy to keep an eye on the cem but I am still learning about the new fm.

As someone said before if you fly wonder women view and little cem 1946 has more content but if your a full cem guy then you won't be able to go back to 1946.

I get more than that at 1920X1200.. just FYI

If you are a fan of the cannon armed,small aircraft with a thimble full of fuel, and prefer your enemy engagement at low altitude over small maps with a historically inacurate biaed in favor of the VVS planes, IL-2 1946 is what you want to fly.
COD offers a more realistic " simulation " of the WW II aerial combat even with its limited plane set and single map.I am hopefull COD can make it to other theaters of operation, where navigation and weather play a significant role in the success of an enemy engagement.

good for you that the next planed scenario is easternfront again :D

you know, because of the small, canon armed, not much fuel carrying nimble ones ;)

It should be exciting the wooden ,oil leaking,Yellow canopy, overheating, dispoable, slow LaGG, Yak- Poor choice for the next add on !!!

Nice what settings do you use?
