Honestly said CloD feels much better already than RoF. I can't understand the hate against CloD, especially when it's coming from people that like the toy plane physics of RoF.
Maybe it's just me but even starting or landing feels much better in CloD and on top it costs nothing compared to RoF where you literally get a fraction of the value for a much higher price. Yes, they put shiny sparkles on everything and the website looks better but:
Perfomance was and actually still is horrible. RoF doesn't perform a hell better than CloD for me.
Few planes, expensive to buy. Trying them out is impossible, refunds also. A concept that I hate and actually one of the reasons why I didn't buy during the last sale after all.
I don't like where they are going and in fact I had hoped the genre wouldn't drift into a sugar daddy millionaire golf club. There are train simulators on steam that cost more than 1000$ if you buy the expansions. This is insane and almost theft. It appears the flight sim genre wants to kill itself if it follows that path.
Imagine a future generation of sims asking about 10-30 dollars for each plane or whatever - I see people flying with, excuse me, shitty hardware, sitting in front of messy desks etc. but sure, they will all win the lottery and be able to buy the content mh? I believe a lot of the friendly athmosphere that's left these days (and it's getting more rare every day) will be completely replaced by those you'd not want to fly with because they aren't nice but only show offs with an attitude problem.
But then again - isn't the sale over already? Maybe this thread is done anyways ;P
