This.

It seems 1C does not have a clear idea of what direction to take. First we have an appalling release of a much hyped and (off the back of IL2) defacto flight sim. Sadly we are now over a year down the line with the game still in an appalling state. I recall thinking that 4-6 months down the line CloD would be up and running and yet here we are.

1C then announces BoM and moving some of the key ingrediants (Dynamic weather etc) from CloD to BoM. CloD is supported in terms of fixing the game (as it should be) but no further development in terms of expanding this particular area of conflict.

Now we see an MMO announcement as WoT an WoP are making steady cashflow on a F2P / P2W model and 1C wants a part of that cash rich area. Meanwhile DCS releases a P51 technology demonstrator that whilst still has a long way to go is relatively flawless as they build on DCS World.

I am not sure what 1C are doing but it's all rather fragmented.
