Make the missions, i will make the code

Call me when the next official patch is released.

You worry to much

I agree there are many problems with the sim, and don't fly it much myself anymore, because of them. The sim was released "Unfinished" and I'll see how it looks and feels after the "RC Patch" to reevaluate. It should be better, and hopefully it will rekindle my interest in flying again. COD probably won't see all the fixes I'd like to see until the Sequel is released and the FMB tools work better for the community to build more interesting online and offline missions/campaigns. I can't see the Sequel being released for a year or two, so we may see further patches to COD to test features for the Sequel. Hopefull the future of the series will be better when the average computer is more powerfull, and the sim series is further optimized.

This post by BlackSix today was very good news that suggests that some of the old business model will be continued.

"We plan to extend game after release and add new theaters."

Problem is, people didnt buy CLoD with the impression that, in order to have it up to par, they need to buy something else down the road.

Thats total BS.

Thank goodness there are other sims out there with a good rep, and deliver what they are suppose to. I aint spending a dime on another game from this group of devs.

Poor overall performance with visuals that are disproportionate to the strength of hardware required to run it.

Exceptionally poor AI voice acting

Flickering shadows

Exceptionally poor AI behavior

Badly implemented FM's that make CEM unrewarding

Unpleasant global colour palette

Ugly GUI with irritating splash screens

Insufficient ships to represent the convoy phase of the battle

Insufficient resource management to represent anything more than skirmishes (come back in ten years for Adler Tag)

Nothing.

I'll just keep this simple...

For the most part is all about the "AI", the better and more interesting the "AI"
performs...the better my experience is.

I think its important to realize, especially if you are a tree , that deciduous trees actually have a flickering effect due to air passing through the foliage. This effect actually reflects in the trees shadow on a sunny day as you see it flickering too. I don't have a problem with the trees, because it makes them come alive, it makes you believe there is wind unlike ROFs static looking trees that are lifeless.
My problem is flickering shadows on SOLID objects, buildings, radar stations etc, which with the lack of proper Anti Aliasing makes the whole terrain seem flickery.

As for the GUI, well it took some getting use to. But now I love it, when you know how to use it well, its so logical, Info windows are a fantastic idea.

I agree with the other points though, still much room for improvement.

Agreed. It has all the character of the speaking clock..."At the third stroke it will be 9.15 precisely"

How after all the experience with il-2 can they make something so much worse in COD???!

I've turned it off.
