One big issue is the hardware requirements.
The biggest part of the community cannot afford a 400,00= euro vidcard to play this game.
Many of them are part of the old IL2 community, used to the totally smooth flying that sim has, simply because IL2 on the contrary, is played today with hardware always exceeding its requirements.
They're not willing to invest money on a compromise vidcard to play CLOD with low FPS or with a graphic similar or worst than IL2.
I think that many players will shift to CLOD with the new product. At that time cards with actual top performances will be mid price and the structure of the sim will be competitive with IL2 in terms of aircraft variety and freedom from bugs, FM issues etc.
JMHO
