It pulls stronger a hair of simulator than a pair of oxen, for those like us ... You will buy like addicts and fight for the last copy in the shop, if the game is any good ...

LOOOL perhaps your right, but seeing how much the sim is considered now in our wing it has to be not only any good, but clearly good.


btw is it an international way of saying or is it a perfectly hilarious translation?

all the discussion is useless, coz if the next patch comes out, the patchthread will be go over 40 pages, how awesome the patch and 1C are...

I don't get all this complaining, personally I am having a great time flying this sim and have learned to deal with it's current issues. I'm thankful that I at least get to fly what we have and that I'm not still waiting for the game to be released.

This is a cutting edge sim, with talented people working to make it better everyday, and I'd much rather they be working towards our next patch than appeasing the people on here that are complaining because they didn't get it 100% perfect on the first attempt.

Guys. Stop apologising. You paid for a promised product and didn't get it.

Now the developers are being incredibly rude to their remaining dwindling customer base.

+1

This needs to be said more.

I strongly disagree with your view.

Personally I am disappointed that we have not yet seen the patch considering how long ago the alst one was released and the major stability issues we still have to put up with. The game is clearly playable for some (and I have to say I am in that fortunate group of people to a certain extent) however the launcher crashes hit me whenever I fly online anywhere around the hour mark and no matter what I do with settings, cache clearance, game booster etc. etc.

I still think that Cliffs of Dover is a great game and has a lot of potential, but not having the basic foundation of it being stable is beginning to get difficult to stomach. The stability needs to be fixed, everything else is secondary: I can cope with slightly odd AI, "non accurate" FM's and a multitude of other issues: but the crashes are starting to stretch my patience.

Will I buy Battle of Moscow? Yep!! - whilst Cliffs of Dover has been a terrible launch into the new "Il2" series I really hope that we will see this new series grow and mature just like we did with the original IL2 series.

Right now JG53 is in the interim weeks between the Battle of France (which we used as a tester campaign getting used to the new game etc.) and the Battle of Britain - I had hoped for the patch today as that would have tied in great as right now it is difficult for a group such as ours to oeprate a full Battle of Britain theatre simply because by the time we have gotten airborne, formed up and gotten to target we have lost 30% of people to launcher crashes, add in the time to complete whatever objective or engagement is set and you're looking at around 25% of people are most left "in mission" : sure the others can relaunch their games and reconnect but the teamwork is broken up destroying the focus and immersion of missions.

I hope to see the patch soon, even if it simply eliminates the launcher crash issue - the other features I'm happy to wait for, even happy to pay for with the Battle of Moscow addon.

Well said

There was surprise and confusion (this thread as well as the update thread) that the next patch was purely graphics and performance rather than 'the' patch that would bring CoD up to what it should have been at release with numerous bug fixes.

I think/hope that the delay may be due to a change of plans to include more than just graphics performance in the beta. Either that or luthier's definition of "very shortly" is a bit odd! I'm certainly expecting more than graphics performance in the next patch.
