I'm half expecting another paid addon for 1946 somewhere down the track if things go very poorly for Maddox Games.

Maybe they should hire the Daidalos Team to help out with CloD

I'm playing ARMA II at the moment and what amazes me is the speed of the updates that come for their Beta patch, it's almost every day.

Anyway I've done my part supporting CLOD. I bought it, I played it but I don't enjoy it in it's current form. Good luck to them.

Well .... quite bad example you chose for the comparison ... ArmA 2 is the second game worst optimized ever in the history of the games (the first one was "Armed Assault" lol). Even now, with 3 expansions, a lot of patches, the game still doesn´t run smooth and is full with all kind of bugs (plenty of them solved by the community).

No, IL-2: Cliffs Of Dover deserves this title...

What needs to be said has been said countless number of times so I guess the forum will be a bit quiet. I have been enjoying and rediscovering IL1946 while waiting for the official update to be finished but still enjoy the occaisional sortie on ATAG.....best of both worlds.

Somewhere between CLOD and IL946 is my perfect Combat Sim but both have a special appeal of their own. Its nice to jump into something different and takes the impatience out of waiting for CloD to go the next level.

I just hope the next official update resolves many of the long standing issues, if it doesn't then I think some of CloDs' loyal support will drift away.

Plays smooth as sink for me 60 fps with everything on highest level AA AF etc and at 2550x1440 resolution net code is being worked on.

My point is that I supported CLOD and I will probably buy BOM but I'm not enjoying playing CLOD in it's current form especially the lack of coops. I wish them all the luck but I'm not playing it at the moment and probably wont until the next patch. Even then I would expect I'll pop on to see what's changed but I doubt it will have the improvements I need to enjoy it.

With regards to ARMA they have a beta out at the moment and I am not kidding...literally every day there is a new one with more fixes and features. Isn't that amazing? Every day!

you know that there are plenty of other games and flightsims out there to try?

I've spend time in

ROF
DCS P51
Arma2
Iron Front
That free Wing Commander game.

And I've enjoyed them all. Wish I could say the same about CLOD, but I can't. I'm waiting to see if it will grow on me but in the meantime there's a lot more games and sims to play out there.

Playing a game is like going down a stair in the beginning it is all fun and you go down fast waiting for the breakfast downstairs but if only silence and no good smell of coffee or hot chocolate is waiting for you the last step just before you let go the stair is the most disappointing just like a game that promise a lot, give a lot but delivers not what was hoped for.

S!

Will get Iron Front, even it is a bit buggy at the moment but too much interest in it to pass World Of Tanks is going downhill fast, played at test servers a lot and can see why they do what they do to Russian tanks. And their devs being openly anti-German sentimented adds to it. Go figure.

Diablo III is quite fun when you play as coop, alone a grind sort of. A bit annoying is the difficulty level change, adds a ton of HP and makes enemies move like on steroids while you do not change much. Or I am just too slow for these games

DCS has features coming that spark interest even within ranks of real armed forces pilots. And that requires something as they for sure know their business. JTAC + A-10C = Pure Win! More WW2 planes to match the P51D and more fun in the horizon as well

What would be great is that a developer could make a full blown WW2 tank sim. There are none out. And by that I mean not only late war Tigers or Pershings or whatever but the early war as well. Dream come true would be a tank sim expanding over the WW2 and even Korea

But now is summer so not really much time to sit by the computer and STILL waiting for my TM Warthog to come Sent it out 2 months ago soon
