2. Crap AI
3. Poor FM's
4. Slow downs, dust particles/smoke and zooming in
5.Stutters (micro)
6. Flickering trees
7. Netcode (as I mainly play offline)
8. No Anti-Aliasing
9. Ridiculously hard to use in-game .avi creator with no manual to explain just how to use it effectively!
10. Just in-case you forgot since I mentioned it- Building pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted when others make it look easy.
11. Loadout can't be changed on some aircraft (and even if you say it can...I can't do it!)
12. Basically no Single player content that is enjoyable due to "2. Crap AI" and the ridiculous response of the enemy when attacked. Either carries on regardless and gets shot up or does amazing impossible rolls until it thinks you aren't following anymore....and repeats until either dead or escapes
Unfortunatally this says everything I want to.

Basically got fed up with broken promises, backward steps and a very, very poor quality product that we were lied to about from the very start to this moment.
Uninstalled at the moment, and in truth not holding out much hope as I won't spend more money to either uprade from a system that plays any other current game just fine or on a dubious promise that fixes might be in a paid sequal.

This is another for me as well. I have to admit, if CLoD was not such a poor attempt, I would have never went looking for another flight sim, since I was never a huge fan of moderen combat airframes...but wow has DCS changed that.

This is another perfectly logical reason as well.

Ditto, was never interested in modern groundpounding/CAS/whatever during my IL-2 days, but then BS v1.0 came out and that was that, no looking back Not saying DCS doesn't have its share of problems though, it sure does, but their FM fidelity and systems modelling is still unsurpassed IMO! Where 1C gets / goes with BoM remains to be seen however, haven't bought CloD so won't feel swindled if BoM's good and I purchase it as a new customer...

Lol, me too. I'm now into KA 50Black Shark. It's great. I was extremely loyal to IL2 but have been more disappointed by the deceit week after week. The abuse people copped, in the last year, on this forum for asking questions about CloD has been disgraceful. The few idiots that felt they needed to contribute to the deceit moved a few people towards other sims.
I will still wait for a better product and hope it is achieved so there is more than 5 people online, in the afternoons, for us Aussies. I still believe it can be achieved.
The Moderators on this forum need to start banning those few who thought, and still think, that abusing people that are upset with the deceit is the way to save CloD. Just because they reach 2000 posts doesn't make them experts on what was happening behind the scenes...... now extremely obvious.
