I think what will hurt though is the lack of coop content as most squads prefer this form to going onto D/F servers (I know ATAG and others have a work around but thats not the point is it?), especially those with no interest in the Eastern Front

Not sure if I'll have to go as far as waiting for reviews. There were tell tale signs before the release that indicated an incomplete game. Luthier's "Drop a Bomb on Me" video of him flying a 110 over water should have been an indicator, lack of improved engine sounds, no skirmishes but a few highly polished movies are another. If the development process follows the same path so close to the release of the sequel I think we can safely say that the sequel won't be up to standards. On the other hand if we do see honest* representations of developemnt with honest improvement I'll buy. It may seem like a long shot to some but I'll take the risk if I see good updates and progress.
*I'm not trying to indicate dishonesty on the teams' behalf, but there were clues that had me sctratching my head, and I know there were others who looked at late development with askewed glances of disbelief.
Personally, I'd like a RATA over the snows of the eastern front.
Good luck crew. I'm sure you're aware of the thin ice on which you stand. You have the time to make something we all hope to have on our hard drives.
