why not to distribute some free copies of the game so there are more players online?

so how would you solve the problem of the so few online players?

wouldnt it be best giving copies away?

even if it was given away many people like me would buy it

Your assumption/opinion is in error.. In that you equate IL2 to CFS where the only difference is that CFS protected the game.

Once you realize that error, you will than be able to look at all the other factors that 'could have' caused CFS demise. Off the top of my head, one of the biggest complaint about CFS was people could tweak the FMs with ease, which in turn caused a lot of cheating online. And that is just one example of how IL2 was not like CFS back in the day. Thank god tweaking the FM via mods in IL2 requires a lot more effort, otherwise IL2 would be suffering the same fate IMHO.
