There are people who think the RAF flew only by flapping their arms as if they were wings as well as there are people who think the Luftwaffe aircraft flew with potatoe schnaps.

And if someone were to make an accurate modification said people would grind the effort to data dust between their constant sniping, at each other and the makers of this mod, because these constant skirmishes in the forum is actually all they care about, it has become the reason they hang out here.
Wow! It's nice to see that universal truths are still being posted in these forums. I couldn't agree more, even if both "sides" got a sim, modelled perfectly down to a microscopic level, both sides would still find something to complain about. I'd say this is one of the main reasons for CloD's failure, developers spending too much time correcting chart fetishists imaginary problems when there are much broader and important things that should've been prioritized. First you make the basics THEN you tweak, not the other way around. There are so many variables required for a perfect FM that this sim doesn't even model in the first place!

I think the game should be handed over to modders BUT under some kind of quality control framework, otherwise it will remain one of the most potential and unfulfilled sim of all times. CloD screams potential, since day one but it needs the right people tapping away on that code and making those 3D models.
