after sleeping over the thought of an IL2 MMO, i have to say, that i personally will certainly not pay a monthly fee to fly a combat flight sim....not because i couldnt afford it, but simply because i have enough bills every month to pay which are annoying enough...
honestly, if they would build a top notch working sim, i would gladly pay a couple of hundred euros even, but only if things like flight models were as close to reality as possible....
and there the problem starts in my view regarding an il2 MMO....
if they cant even get the FMs correctly in this game, after more than a decade in business, and make them even worse with the latest beta patch, how are they supposed to make them closer to reality in a MMO game.
they will for sure not make them as realistic as possible and historical correct, but they will have to make them even, to secure "playability" for both sides, were you are forced to fly on one server under certain circumstances....thats my biggest concern...anyway i will have to convince my squad mates to switch from our beloved 109s to the ugly Mustang then and fight other Mustangs.

Hehehe..........the ugly Mustang?...........this was probably the most beautiful and best fighter of WW2,it was the only aircraft of it's time to be able to escort the American bombers all the way to Berlin,and was far superior to the 109's of the late war,by then the 109 was completely out classed.

Diablo 3 is a MMO and does not have a monthly fee, you just buy the game and that´s it.

Knowing the inclinations of Madoxx to merge things maybe we are facing something new in the MMO arena, just saying

Most MMO's seem to depend on a steady diet of additional content to keep them attractive to players. Maddox Games has always added new content at a glacial pace. I wonder what changes if any would be made to the way MG works if they are the ones producing this title.

After waiting all of what 6 years for BoB and getting CloD I'll just wait and see how this all pans out without getting my hopes too high.

I lost all hope a while ago. All I'm praying for (yup, it's down to praying) is fix what's broken, optimize the graphics core for SLI and maybe, some day, we can play it the way it was intended at high resolutions. I'm running GTX680SLI right now on a 30 inch 2560x1600 monitor. Got it to work with both cards doing better than 90% all of the time. Problem is that the game only runs about 10% faster at the highest settings. I mostly use Vsync. Over water it's a solid 55-60fps but over land it drops down between 30-45fps. Compare that with DCS A10 and RoF running butter smooth (without Vsync) between 90-120fps at the same resolution. I still think it's the best looking sim of the bunch but it needs to get fixed or the show stops right here as far as I'm concerned. I'll buy the sequel but only when it hits the bargain bin at Steam if it's as unoptimized as it is now. This is one sim where throwing stupid money at it won't make a d*mn difference.
