We where well aware of what we were getting Neoqb haven't fooled anybody on purpose. IL2 consists of many expansions and updates, stop comparing it to RoF it's just ridiculous besides IL2 doesn't really have the proper tools for multiplayer either... it utilize a 3rd party tool for server browsing, something that would leave a lot of players out of the online community.
And IL2 wasn't exactly rich on content at initial release either.

Do you think anyone here is comparing a 9 year old product with RoF? C'mon most of us here were there when the original IL2 was released and that's what's being compared. The only ones mentioning the 'full release' of IL2 (meaning all it's addons) in a comparative way to RoF are the fanbois raving over RoF. Get real. That's not fair to neoQB. It's not fair to fans of both games, and that's not what's being done.
I hope neoQB succeeds and manages to get things working as soon as possible. But not having online code working for a game that was heavily bolstered as an online experience is unfathomable.
It's great the game looks as good as it does, but it's 2009. Would anyone expect less? I'd be dissappointed had the game not looked as brilliant as it does. But as many have mentioned that luster wears off PDQ when you look at how unfinished it is.
Time will tell if this game succeeds. I've been tempted to go to pick up the game at the local MicroCenter, but I've heard enough to confirm my own suspicions that I won't buy it untill neoQB finishes the game.
The tradgedy of all this is that I BELIEVE neoQB is trying, and these issues are a symptom of how difficult it is for new developers (especially of complicated games like Flight Sims) to make and finish a game. Sadly, my fear is they won't be able to.
What they need to do above everything else is get online functioning. Releasng two extra planes to placate supporters is nice, but is not what is necessary to lengthen RoF's shelf life.
