Even if this game were single player only it would have permanent residence at my house. It's still brilliant with no killer bugs.

Wouldn't say hours, just never (for me, an Aussie, with an awful gaming time table)
easily tried 20+ times and have played 2 games (in a row) that have been good, sim, and edal86 just knocked me out of the sky every 35.2 seconds!!

Maybe my prob is I refuse to play on arcade as it is frigging awful, and even then I can usually only find 1 game with 1 player in it

maybe being able to join games in play, might pop that in suggest to dev thread

I completely agree! I have only played online a few times and enjoy the single player mode MUCH more....

Single player also has some probs. I'm far from being a great pilot and I never get shot down (simulator mode).
The only time I fail a mission is if I run out of time or cant find the tatget that needs to be destroyed.

I would love to be able to play this game offline, but the AI isnt anywhere near challenging enough.

However, they did mention in the Dev forum that this would be addressed in the patch
..."Enemies AI and allies AI were improved"....

A bit much but man the online has been a HUGE letdown. Nothing but arcade furballs, I played in a match lkast week wehre every single plane was either an I-153 or an I-16 I mean wtf is this a WW2 game? The best planes in Arcade are pieces of shit?

It could well be that I don't play at the same time as most that play realistic or sim but I'd say in my experience I have about of 10-20% chance of finding a Realistic or sim match per session nevermind repeated matches. I found one realistic Strike match the other day after playing for an hour and some retard named drdeath5000 or something kept kamikazing the targets. **** it. I enjoy single player a lot and LOVE playing with a lot of you guys on here but overall the online is a joke because of the people playing it.

drdeath5000, that sounds familiar, lol. That is why I only play on sim now, it gets you rid of all those call of duty style idiots.

Dont get me wrong - I love much of BoP, but as a guy with a young family I cannot spend hours waiting for a game because all serious players have deserted do to the well known issues.

Anton, we salute you and the team for your amazing talent and vision bringing this to console, but the time has come when one must admit defeat. All the best for the future and I hope you manage to release a BoP2, may I suggest that you find:

1. A better publisher.
2. A better QA team.

All respect,

Well I guess that means your out. Thanks for hanging in there.
