We suspect Jason either wouldn`t or couldn`t anyway, but if you want a fine example of how a dev involves himself with the community then Jason is a prime case, wow he even goes and answers questions on the forum, his team fixed a dog of a game and his set up continues to release 300+mb patches on a regular basis and thanks the purchasers for supporting his efforts.

So to put it in an easy to understand way, Maddox Games (if it`s still called that) could learn a lot from how the RoF team support and approach their community, if the reader is so blind that they deny thats fact then I`m obviously pissing in the wind.
You must of missed the ROF turmoil when it was also released "unfinished" albeit not as "unfinished" as COD was. Jason bought into ROF after the game engine was finished and now has a very good idea what the game engine can accomplish, so he can answer questions and provide updates with confidence. At the moment Luthier doesn't have that luxury, the much more complex COD game engine still requires alot of work. Even if Jason was able to buy COD months ago, it would not have been possible for him to confidently say what the future would hold for the sim, nevermind meaningful updates. That said the future of COD and the new IL-2 series will be told soon enough, they are running out of time.
