And there is no 'historical', smaller (and with less objects, read: trees and houses) one avaialble

Awh, crap.

But thanks for the information!
I'm still sure, it will be possible ... some time ... soon ^^

That's all we ask and please don't tell me that online experience will have to stay in these silly maps!!!

Sure, i can agree with what you say. I just don't expect it to happen within the next week, more like somewhere within the next 3-4 months

On the other hand, once they get rid of the stutters maybe it will be easier to fly in multiplayer since our PC will only have to deal with our aircraft? No AI around to calculate routines for, etc.

but also other maps that could be used even online. You just had sometimes framerateproplems OVER the city of Stalingrad and Berlin. Most other maps and areas were ok.
Later with FB the Finnland map caused proplems for some players , also true.

but, to repeat, there still were other possibilites. and not only these fantasie islands.
We will see how this big map works online when you keep the missions on a small area and stay away from London (and other bigger cities).
If it will be 'unplayble' (at least for the next months), CoD makes no sence for known servers like Warbird of Prey as example IMHO

That's also a more or less level head approach. Sure, it would be very nice to have the 1:1 map in a "light version", or even parts of it to make it smoother to fly over.
On the other hand, they did tell us we'll be getting a map making tool with the modding tools in a few months. Maybe we will be able to load the big map and cut it up into little pieces ourselves? Or we might get historical small maps in a patch?

Who knows?

The truth is that none of us knows yet.

So yes, it's good to ask about it. It's just not good to assume it will be one way or the other when we don't really have any evidence either way
We're all guilty of that (me too) from time to time, let's all relax a little bit and wait for more information

And we will buy it ..... sometime .... soon ....
But now is useless for large on line groups.

What's that counter in the upper-right corner of some pics?

FRAPS' FPS counter. so 330 fps when viewing the map.
