that's your problem right there...
I hope the devs don't waist precious time and money on single player.

This is 2012 ! why would anybody fly against a mindless AI enemy when the world is connected with high speed internet.
I played IL2 46 for 8years versus the AI and thought I knew how to fly.
Then I tried multiplayer and found out I was wrong!
Real human opponents talking to each on Team Speak and working as a team are so much better than any AI .No matter how well it is programmed.

Don't installed it if you are only gonna play with your self. you are missing the point !
I think you missed the reason I have not played CLoD online.

It is 2012, and the line I highlighted was also the same thing people said 1998 with the release of Rainbow 6. With 56k modems and $600 a month DSL lines.

Online is fine. Like I said earlier, I love playing DCS online, on squad nights, with my group, using TARS.

At the same time, some people like myself, have a full time job, wife, kids, and other things going on in life, and love the thing called a "Pause" button. See, DCS is great online, and also a blast offline.

Talking about AI, IL2 4.11 AI is great. As well as BOBII's AI. DCS's AI is also getting there. Not all AI is bad.

Saying that devs should not waste time on offline, is a dumb statement, sorry. There are plenty of reasons why it should be worked on. Look at how DCG, and other player made campaigns made IL2's online world better. Not only that, but "online interwebz gaming" isnt new and exciting to older folks like myself, who have played online for years and years.

I would like to not have to choose - good online or good offline. Sorry, I want both.


***Thanks for the suggestions to try online. I will give it a whirl when I have some time.***
