I can't help myself but I highly suspect that there will be no compatibility of CloD and the sequel anymore.

Based on what?
They have said many times, that alot will be fixed in the sequel witch allso fix issus in CLOD. Im pretty shure there will be alot of improvement that effect CLOD in the furture due the sequels. But CLOD as a standolone will be left not finalized, but flyable.

Well solved could mean a number of things, like perhaps multiplayer will be on their own servers (ie MMO)

Just saying...

I think it's a new game that is being written, with models and maps from the COD game, but I would hazard a guess that it is installed on top of the existing one anyway. That explains why this is taking so long and why some things will be missed out on COD. If you are expecting everything in COD to be fixed standalone I don't expect that, and that's no different to the first IL2 - you had to buy sequels for changes and more kit regardless of what you thought of the first game + patches.

We know that the netcode sucks, it's refreshing to know that it was ripped up and started again. I just hope that it's not going to suck like the current one does I feel burned, personally, so I'll definitely wait to see the response of the community before buying the sequel. I'm not going through this again.

Yeah I think you are probably right ... But more importantly, I hope you are right
