Would make sense, if you leave out the fact that CloD was way longer (maybe twice as long?) in development.

What you could perhaps do, is compare the costs for the customer of those two flightsims. I probably spend $200 or so on ROF and about $30 for CloD. Of course you can also pay way less for ROF, it's even F2P now (of course with limited planeset avaliable).

777 is mostly ROF, so alot of that money from sales could go into the development of ROF, while for CloD, Ubisoft also gets its share, atleast from non-russian market sales. So that makes a difference

i tested out rise of flight its incredible the performance difference these 2 sims offer, looks like rise of flight, dev team used there minds and created code that uses all the cpu cores .

It does make use of all CPU cores, but not fully. Overall CPU usage varies i think and can be as low as 50%. Same is true for the GPU.

Glaring bugs in the game remain unfixed, but the developers continue to release paid cosmetic addons.

Don't like much of the recent pay-ware stuff, but the number of "glaring" bugs is not exactly that big.


But no, i don't think 777 is that interested in buying this sim, so the topic is mood.
