Will there be an online community for COD after BOS?

I think every game is better out-of-the-box than CloD was at the time of its release. The interesting question is if BoS will have the quality at release date which Clod has achieved in the current Team Fusion version (maybe already TF 5.00 in late spring). Looking at the current screenshots and videos BoS will have a hard time graphic-wise with its already rather outdated graphic engine. Naturally, cost-wise as well with CloD being nearly free ($ 10, often only for $ 5) in comparison with the high investment of $ 100 for BoS. The important part will be the general flight feeling and the physic and damage models. To me a major aspect will be its capability to allow for big campaign missions and a huge amount of objects in the air and on the ground - making it a real simulation and more than a dogfighting game. To my knowledge a strong weakpoint of RoF - so let's see how BoS will perform.

I think the vast amount of attacks were ambush in nature
at close range 70-80m, people should hone this style.

My take on Clod out of the box was just a master piece, with some issues needing attention. This became evident only after the fact, when trying the EU release with a strong machine. Every patch took a little bit of life away from it in various ways. There will never be another flight sim that can compare to it. We had our chance at this but most of us hesitated to do a up-grade, including me, it took me awhile.
