Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover Roadmap

No...No loss of reality, just find it hard to imagine that people 'need' so badly to complain in this manner, if people are so dubious about UBI or 1C products already why oh why did they buy the latest game immediately on release, if I had a hunch a company was creating bad products I would have done some research before I made my purchase, but instead some people are writing posts with utter condemnation because they feel cheated and robbed etc.....nobody puts a gun to your head to buy this stuff......seriously

Sure thats right.

But for me the disappointment, however, outweighs the joy too.

I can understand the opinions of the "mainstream users" as well as yours. But this is the forum of the developer. It is inevitable that there are some critical remarks.

Yes critical remarks I can understand.......but lets make them constructive perhaps? wishing an untimely death to any employee of UBI or 1C is NOT constructive, wishing for the demise of these companies is NOT constructive, writing overemotional 'letters to the devs' about how you deserve better because you have played their last game for the last 1000 years so they owe you everything is NOT constructive.

Its been 6 years...6 years of high hopes and hype about the wondeful IL2 successor...And Oleg has allways took pride in remindind us : IL2 is the best...Even by 2011 standards...And SOW will be 10 times better ! You'll see !

Its not that Oleg and team owes anything to anyone, but they created so much hype and high expectations by their own means, that when COD came out so much broken and unfinished,( wathever the reasons), it was a double negative effect... 6 months ago we have seen things like "pilot bail" and "waves on the beach" animations, highly realistic gauge "glass" reflections in cockpits, high quality smoke rendering, etc, so we all assumed it would make the first release since they were apparently on schedule and no sign of real problems in the horizon...And remember Oleg promise: It will be very close to photorealistic...
I am confident we will get all that someday ...But 1C is responsible for the worldwide disapointement they are now trying to overcome....But I personnaly
have faith in Luthier...

Salute !
