But it's no IL2 and never will be.

I agree with everything you said EL. I did the same thing for 2 years, paying for a high end MP server, and buying every single thing they bought. But eventually, when you are told the most glaring issues in the game aren't going to be fixed, the ones that would turn that small community into a large one, you ultimately give up on it.
I believe the last straw was the selling of gauges that should be part of the planes in the 1st place - stuff like compasses, fuel gauges, gun sights, etc. for your plane. You soon realize that the broken parts of the game were never to be fixed. The master browser still is a POS failing all the time. The object limitations are the same. The amount of objects you have in a mission are the same. Not a single object added to the ME to make it more immersive, but they can model a streamer or a pistol to sell. You blow up a train in MP the server lags all over the place (3 year problem now) but they model different color streamers to sell.
If they fix these problems, I'll buy everything. But all I ever see over there is more stuff to buy while the major glaring problems never get addressed.
But in the end, it is fun to FPS it a bit in the sky. But you soon realize how boring that becomes as well.
