Cheers Sammi, yer i prob should edit it. :)
I just get wound up by the internet police here.
And robotek, seriously? :rolleyes:

Hey Feuerfalke, long time no see! i guess your having as much fun with COD as me then.

that's BS and you know it. wingmen don't crash to ground in RL if you land before them, and it shouldn't be up to player to workaround an escape to that situation. it is an evident bug. something that's not right and disrupts both immenrsion and game-flow. what if you need to do an emergency combat landing??? although cargiy probably can come up with some sort of justification to that as always...

today i tried to have some fun with CoD. been testing the FMB and finally got to know how to place objects such as clouds, so i could see the big ones at last. the FMB weather system is bugged as hell, but after some crashes i went over some big clouds, well CoD will look significantly better with them, they look great and very real but they're in unfinished state and cannot be used right now.

then i went on a 1 spit mk.I vs 2 109 E-1, as i wanted to test AI and friendlies never follow orders anyway. after irritatingly being unable to change my load-out, i went head-on... now i'm no expert on real AC stats as many gents in here, but even i can see that the mk.I couldn't be so damn slow. i also can't see the use of a prop pitch with 2 fixed positions if one of them is useless. as for the AI, well they can't hit an elephant in a corridor if it steps slightly to one side. after about 5min of engagement, they turned tail and headed home, allowing me to catch them from their 6... AI is fit to fly nothing but bombers right now (and even some gunners don't always work). as online is out of the question, i really don't know what to do with CoD right now. maybe i'll try the campaigns that have been coming up... as for sightseeing, atm i prefer to go out.

Thats no 'BS', as you so eloquently called it, it's a way to enjoy the sim despite it's undisputed flaws.
I believe it was common that the flight leader landed last, except when damaged.
You are not putting a little effort in it to enjoy it as it is, no you prefer to get your blood-pressure up and to rant.
So be it, i've been only trying to help.
And for the steam error, thats what luthier told us.

Btw, this is a thread about communication and way ot now.

I've been trying to populate the airfields in FMB so one day the community might have a full populated template for this game. I take sooo much time and is pretty boring though so i wouldnt expect it anytime soon though :(

Cheers pickle.

Just be prepared that the whiners will tell you how much you suck because this and that is not properly positioned on the field...

Andy, could you please turn this into a poll? I'ld vote 'Yes!' ;)

Well I expected it to have a delayed message by now for the US release so I'm guessing it is actually being released then?

On that point we will have the new patch the day before or the day on release via steam, no Beta.

So I think we should wait a while before we carry on arguing.
