Totally agree, the initial release of COD, even with the initial bugs was very playable on my highly optimized system. Most people with an average computer would have had no love for the unfinished COD code, and few seen its potential. Team Fusion is just touching the surface of COD codes capabilities and is better in many ways than the initial BOS code. That said I have no doubt that the BOS code could be improved before the release and many more improvements made if the BOS code is successful enough to allow further development of theaters. It will be interesting to see how both sims evolve. Hopefully well for the combat flight sim communities. I know its business, but I still have considerable animosity for Jason/Loft's part in pulling the rug from underneath Luthier and COD's code, when they were so vulnerable and so close to being successful.
