Agreed.. That and it is ironic that 1C's biggest competder to CoD is 1C's IL-2.. Add to that the fact that alot of people playing IL-2, play it because IL-2 runs smooth on thier 3 to 5 year old PC. That is just a few of the reasons why there are so few playing CoD online.. And yes, before a gloom'n'doomer feels the need to step in and point out some master of the obvious bug in CoD, yes there are other reasons people are not playing CoD, we get it.

That is a good point..

Correct me if I am wrong, but the biggest difference seems to be the list of planes in the IL-2 GUI menu vs. displaying a map with bases, or inflight assest.. That is to say

IL-2 COOP
1) select plane from list of planes displayed in GUI menu
2) Hit fly

CoD COOP
1) select plane from one of the bases displayed on the map
2) Hit fly

So yes selecting the plane you fly is now different.. but when you consider all the things you can do in CoD that you could not do in IL-2 that difference does not seem to be a show stopper.

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on.
