This is the worst thing that could happen. Not only is it a worse engine, with less details, it is ugly and cartoony, but also the fact that you have to pay for each aircraft. They add no new stuff like they did in IL2, no adons with maps, aircraft and campaines ect and this I think is a disaster.

An eksembel here what I mean. No part falls off, no smoke effect from engien only fuel leake. and when it crashes to the ground no harm, as in reality. Dont like the look of the plane eather.

That is a nonsense.. Nothing you said is true apart from having to pay for most aircrafts (the game itself is free btw)..

Ohh are you getting them for free? I guess not I dont belive Im wrong. Just look up in this thread. Seveal have payed a lot of mony in ROF.

@CWMV

The move was something we had planed and prepaired for, for over 2 years. That was not something that came as a shock to anybody. All had a fair chance to upgrade.

I think it must have been a long time since you last flew in CLOD.

[CWMV]

Nope, tried it out for a few hours with each patch. Impressed with the desastersoft campaigns, the game though? Not so much...

[Immermann]

New franchise.
New engine.

Upside:
No UBI?


(The cartoony feel of RoF would perhaps work in an African campaign.)

[furzyk]

Dont you think, that first you should make CLOD playable and than sell new game? It is not fair to forget about sim lovers whou has bought Cliffs of dover. It is just my opinion but I think many people here thinks the same.

At last, some sanity. And a moment of schadenfreude at the expense of the Clod 'defenders of the faith'.

Not a moral victory as such, just quiet satisfaction that sanity has prevailed.

I cannot see how any future development can be anything but an improvement. It may be expensive, but it should at least be competent.

There is hope yet

And it seem you are yet to fly the RoF.. You are so utterly wrong, that I lack any respect to try to prove that to you..

nonsense !!

the game was never free in the first few years, you got a couple of planes with the initial game and from then on you had to buy more items in order to stay competitive online and get newer better planes

after a few years of doing this and sales lagging, RoF decided to give you the initial 2 plane "game" for free but with limited options of how to play it. this was done very deliberately to sukker in a whole new swarm of players that would otherwise not have bought the game, and to be able to sell to a large percentage of them more planes and other items over the following months

free, no, not by far

I paid so much less for so much better game, that I seriously don't understand what are you talking about (an I bought it right at the start).
