Actually Black Death would be a great name for a Russian Theater addon. Its good news that they are having to completely redo the Black Death benchmark track. The first one had so many bugs it was hard to watch. I

Its almost a waste of time posting here, as very little common sense, is shown. Its like they can't see the forest for the trees. In an update let say the developer doesn't mention any changes to the FM and you read a post. " What about the FM, they didn't say anything about the FM, OMG they must have stopped working on the FM, WTF????

You probably just triggered a 20 page rant about tree collisions.

I really appreciate all the developers are trying to do. If they can pull all this off on top of creating a world class combat flight sim that works, has great sound, FM, AI, DM, stability, etc, etc, etc...more power to them. I love everything about WWII fighters. Tanks, trucks, ships, etc are all nice but PLEASE don't give us a long list of other game elements that almost work before you fix the basics.

Thanks again Luthier and company for your efforts.

Personally I don't mind tanks or other ground vehicles, they can give the ground wars another dimension inside the world of Il2. I like the mannable AAA/FLAK in combination with the flatbed wagons or field deployment (great for missions). For me ClOD and the runner up are in the first place about combat flying.

As for now I still dislike the way Clod runs, the ai and comms aren't the way it should be, yes work in progress.. I know. Get rid of the crippled planes in the multiplayer games, the way you sign up for the game still feels less as in 1946.

For the optimalization. After buying a SSD and more RAM, CloD runs a bit better, still no joy with 4890 in crossfire, I won't invest in a new graphic card with 2Gb or more right now because of the € and with other games it works and shows it's power potential. CloD itself has a huge potential, the dynamic weather and the scripting are what we could expect, it will hit my system when it's operational though.

Just keep working on it.... it takes time to make perfect.

Those of us who enjoy SEOW with the old Il-2 know why this update is awesome.

I can understand why it doesn't appeal to the lovers of mindless Quake style dogfights.
Just make the option "Follow me" for the commander tank.

I don't reckon many would really think that. However some may consider that those one or two guys are sucking up wages and development costs that might have been spent on people who can further the title as a flight simulator.

Look, if playing crazy taxis in a bunch of tanks that handle like something from the Medal of Honour franchise is your idea of a cutting edge flight simulator, good on you. For myself I do not think it is a mature decision, especially at this stage of the titles development.
