Although very little is known yet, ED have announed their upcoming Flying Legends series. We know that it will begin with the Mustang, which will have armament options and attack capability. It has been predicted that maps and opponents will arrive with the Pony, but not been confirmed or announced.

It's been a good few years since anything rivalled IL2 and 1C. IMO, If Eagle Dynamics have their eyes open to the misery with regards to CloD, then they will 'grasp the bull by the horns' as it were, and develop their very own WW2 combat simulator. To be honest, they'd be stupid not to.
The two sims are completle different. With the only flyable a Mustang it will limit the combat theatre to about 1943 onwards, that plus the lack of a single flyable opponent would serverly restrict the attractiveness of flying online missions

Please don't talk on behalf of me. My experience with the sim is completely opposite. I believe that the sim is a Diamond in the rough and that the Developers are doing all they can to fix it. Each patch that has been released has fixed problems and added to the performace of the sim. What more could I reasonably ask for?

I think this is an important time to ask this question, with all of the recent comments from BlackSix about no more updates due to some attitudes here, and the silencing over the patch.

Flying Legends is down to be released in 2012, preferably the first half. If it is anything more than a study sim, Luther et al should perhaps be more concerned with how they're developing their sim and how they're treating their customer base.
I have currently got Black Shark and their A10 sim. Both are fine bits of software. A10 took a year of open beta to get it into a releaseable state. It still is not perfect.

Just from a immersion point of view I find that I am spending most of my time flying online in COD.

I guess it's different strokes for different folks.
