Have been away for over 1 year is the game worth getting back to ;)

Yes it is!, about the question, yes, i think yes, there is alot of new sounds, they are not new, but you can hear them from other aircraft, and in ground like explosions, you need to try it on your own, there are new tracers, VERY GOOD increment in FPS and a good gameplay on a afternoon on the ATAG server, Salute!

I'd say no, in all honestly. Despite still playing the game most days.

You ask about FM for both sides being correct- well, they couldn't be more wrong actually. Let's not get started there...

Basically, while some things have been made 'more right', other things have been completely taken away or made worse. In fact they still haven't passed BOB 101- Spitfires are faster than Hurricanes.

No, IMO.

Things have changed over a year, in "beta" patches, but its still not up to par.

It seems from visting here now and then that there are is small group that really do think the devs still care about CLoD. Personally, lack of communication, excuses, and already moving on to a new game are signs that CLoD is going to be abandoned.

If the slight possibility that is does finally become a good game, it will be years from now when the modders make it that way, just like IL2.

I even think the P51 in DCS will get an opponent, long before CLoD is offically patched. When that happens, CLoD wont even be in my mind anymore. For a WWII fix IL2 with a modpack still trumps CLoD. For any other real combat sim, Falcon BMS, and DCS stomp everything else right now.

Cliffs of dover is for when you need your insane graphics and realistic feeling flying, tho the FMs may be wrong, it still does FEEL like flying more than any other flight sim i've played, and with trackIR, and that cliffs actually has a decent field of view on a 16:9 monitor, if you can get over the fact that its always a sunny day in 1940's Britan, the game has some wicked awesome immersion...


the latest patches made it look decent and be playable on most budget PC's that have had a 60$ videocard upgrade... and pretty much all the game crashing has been fixed.

the big problem with the game now for me... is lack of content... I'd much prefer a P51 vs a 190 than a hurricane vs a G.50

all in all, the game is worth the 60$ now, if not just more now than before the latest patch.

If you can wait another month, the final steam patch is in the pipeline, and it will the last. So everybody should come Back and assess the game for good

The P51 and FW190 didn't serve in the Battle Of Britain, where as the Hurricane & G.50 did.
Either way, they are not going to add anymore aircraft to the game until it is fixed, or we get the sequel

No thanks, take your p51 and fw190 somewhere else. The current planes have yet to be fixed, the last thing we need is more.

Sorry but he's got a point. While I only fly blue, I have to say I have had no interest in flying up until the last beta patch and now I find I miss my FW190.

If BoM won't have an FW in it, I won't be happy. Also a lot of things that are wrong with CLoD now, will most likely be fixed / included with updates that will ship with BoM.
