On another note, RoF is free now...

yea new games get cheaper but not from 50-60$ to like 12$ in less than a year....usually most modern games wont reduce their price by even $10 untill after a year, or so...i wish with all games i can wait 7 or 8 months and be able to pay 15$ for the game...this is totally unprecedented, but you are trying to say that this is normal and everything is fine....

also RoF, has a different business model, and thus might be able to make profit based on the new planes and additions...

Thats great, considering I have gotten my moneys worth flying the JU 88 alone. WW2combat flight simers who havent allready have no reason not to give the sim a go now.

CoD is not yet in a state where it should have been released.

Mate you are kidding right???? I have been playing Battlefield 3 the last few days - with its gazillion dollar budget and rating as the biggest selling pc game ever, it still crashes to desktop for me even hour or so - and I'm running a new, highish-end rig.

So even with all the resources in the world the BF3 guys cant get it right straight away. Cliffs is a fantastic engine and is full of potential, I just truly hope the dev's get the budget to keep the development going, and I for one will continue to support them with every release they offer. I have had more fun playing cliffs than any other game of recent times, including BF3 which last night i played for an hour, then put down to go fly 46 with my squad mates.

I am having a hell of a good time with BF3 currently. This is the most fun ive had playing a pc game in recent memory.

I agree that IL2 is most fun when your flying online campains or structered events when your in a squardron...i figure cod will be the same way. I get bored and lonely just flying around hunting in pub servers...but the cod community needs to be bigger for any of this to happen.

So everyone needs to start recruiting, spread the word on how good COD is (or for some) how good it will be.

Realistically if COD was released today i'd still feel pretty ripped with what it is. It has a long way to go.

I have around 250 hours on this sim. Divide that into £30 is 12p per hour so far?
This, for me, is fantastic value from a game.

I fear a future I cannot afford is looming though, micro-payments, monthly payments, payments for planes/trains etc.

Cheers.

You got ripped off. so did I. We both had systems that fell within the min specs but don't perform. I upgraded, spend about a 1000 bucks. Now I'm in dogfight heaven. Best sim ever. Been simming for about 20 years now. Last few days, online, have been some of my best, most realistical sim sessions ever. Flying on the deck following railroad tracks and hedge hopping, sneaking up on a hapless Hurricane, blasting him to pieces at 50 yards. Priceless! Never knew what hit him. Last week, while in a Spit over Calais, had a one hour(!) dogfight with a 109E4, full real. One bloody hour! We went from 15k down to the deck back up to 15k. This guy used his e advantage all the way and I squeezed the turn ablity of the Spit to the max. In the end I got low on gas, had to run back home. Did a split S, reversed it a few times on the way down. Hoped he would lose sight of me. As I leveled out 10 feet over the water he caught up with me. I ran out of juice, options, ate lead and splashed in the Channel. Could not believe that it had been an hour. I payed $45 in all for this game and it's worth every penny. Even in the "sorry ass state" it's in now. Porked QMB, coms, graphic anomalies etc. etc. Even with my upgraded system the game crashes after about 1.5 hours so there is lots of work to be done by the dev's. My advice is this. Upgrade your system or shelve the game untill it's fixed or you have the money to upgrade. Untill then you don't know what you're missing. I still believe they should change the official min specs so people don't get pissed off and disappointed.

A price of 12 Euro is still too much for (this) CoD. It worths 10 Euros, not one only more cent. Actually this game is still so crude after 7 months that is really hard to be optimistic for its future.

However we need to wait for the next patch, but i seriously don't believe anymore in The Battle of Britain. Probably The Battle for Moscow will be the first chapter of the new IL2 serie (in the next two years).

Well, it is what it is, I've "learnt" to accept that. It's great fun for some online skirmishes on either one of the two servers that I prefer to populate but that's about it. It's still very bare bones. I like it for what it is but Battle of Britain it is not, Skirmish of Britain rather.
