Default Buy this game yet

So I've been waiting and waiting to buy this game....for it to be a playable, enjoyable game. Are we there yet? From posts it looks like FPS issue is fixed, most graphics glitches are fixed, most serious FM issues fixed, and (I think except for medium settings) LOD bugs fixed. What does the community think?

We are half way. The game is playable, even enjoyable, but still quite different from the initial (high) expectations, and still plagued with major defects for a sim, e.g.:

- FM major issues such as the ceiling height some 30% less than the historical data, the lack of a dynamic stall or the absent/too low drag penalization for radiators and open canopies, speeds not conform to the historical tests (Bf-110 C7 for instance, Fiat G.50)
- Some annoying graphic bugs such as the disappearing planes at certain distances, the removal of important effects as the hit-flashes of bullets, the flickering tree shadows
- Some immortal bugs as the sound radar and others

But the good news is that the enterprise is alive and working with some 50 people to the next project, and CloD will benefit by the improvements of the new series as well, if you buy the new game of course.

Cheers!

Is this the LOD issue only on medium detail settings or something different?

Well I think it's a good sign when this thread is actually talking about the game instead of the developers. I gotta admit, online has definitely gotten more interesting with some of the fixes.

According to this programme George Buerling removed his tracers to allow for more ammo.
