I have been reluctant to purchase it until it runs better as i will need to spend quite a bit of money on my computer specs to get any benefit from the modern modelling/performance.
I do wonder whether they will go down the ROF route,free or cheap d/l but you pay for extras ,i e Dynamic campaigns,weather,realistic sounds,add ons and opening up to a more encompassing air/ground first person shooter sim.
Seems horrible it has stuck in the mud already.

Don't know how it will turn out, but in a simHQ interview they did back around the time RoF was released they were asked about this and they thought the business model is not good for a flight sim: it generates good funds for further development, but the developer is "locked" into modeling extra flyables to generate the revenue to the exclusion of everything else.
A complete expansion lets them "sell" other stuff along with it, like new ground units and FMB objects, which is needed to give the player enough tools to recreate the relevant scenarios in more detail.
Again, i don't know if they changed their minds, but the original plan was to stick to the IL2 way, full-fledged expansions every few years with a few freebies thrown in from time to time instead of micro-DLC transactions for single items.
P.S. Can we all just play nice for a while and not rehash the same old arguments here?
