Yes, it may well have developed into something even half as good as IL2, but any game can only do that from a solid base that keeps people playing it to begin with.

Do you play online or offline? I've never got into the stock campaigns, but apparently there is some fairly good third party campaigns both paidware and for free.
I normally go online at ATAG using teamspeak and if there are a few people online 20-30+ is quite common. Even with 270ms ping rate I get much better responce and less warping than I get in the original IL2. The Scripted missions are really good especially the ones with radar plots and the Refuel and rearm.
On special events they can get 100+ online at once, though the mission objects normally get blitzed and they are short matches.
Edit - just saw your post about on-line - dissregard comments where appropriate.
