It is unreasonable to expect a games developer to fix a broken product before I buy a new iteration of it? You got to be kidding me. Seriously.

Well then it's easily solved by not buying again from Maddox Games, then you ( 100 % guaranteed ) will never see any updates, ever again, for Cliffs of Dover because the team will go bankrupt.

As long as they can live on the money they made off Cliff's, they can support this game. When the money runs out, they can't. It's simple. That's why they're working on a sequel, they are flight sim enthusiast as well and I'm convinced they would love to see everything fixed.

If you would care to say something more about your reasoning then just 'Seriously' and 'You got to be kidding me' then perhaps we can understand each other better?

Yes, it is, because this a principle phrase, despite us all knowing that in this special case, once the sequel comes out both games will be merged and "improved" in the course of it.
It is as if there are only noobs posting on these forums who started playing Il2 only yesterday.

No, not "well said"!

It is perfectly reasonable to trust Maddox Games (correct, even if Luthier is bossing now) with their history, to deliver!

If they are able (moneywise) to do so!

Agreed 100%!

I will admit, timeline wise I was worried about CoD upon release.. Based on how UBI had recently handled the Silent Hunter 5.0 sub sim.

My fear being UBI (distributor) had some control or say on how game updates were to be handled. My fear being UBI some how discontined the support for SH5 updates.

I now see UBI has very little to say about it (thus I owe UBI an apoligy) and that support really falls back onto the develper.

Knowing that, and what I know about the history of 1C, I am not worried at all about development of CoD

In summary, if 1C provides CoD 1/10th the support they gave IL-2, CoD will be just fine a few patches from now

Are you guys still chewing over the same old cud?

Its got a bit stale in my mouth. No new arguments, points of view, ideas. Same old stuff. Same old names. Same old Trolls.

I have the game. I'm enjoying it very much. It will improve.

Anything new to talk about?

disagree.

maddox games very much muddied their image with the release of CoD. many promises were made and hard questions ducked ahead of the release. many of these promises still have not been fullfilled.

as i've said. I want this game to succeed, but the lack of regular and honest communication puzzles me. why p#ss off a loyal customer base?
