Oh! also regarding my post you mentioned at the end there, it's the second time I've had to explain I was being sarcastic, I guess sarcasm doesn't translate so well onto internet forums eh?

It's just such a perfect quote. I couldn't help but use it!

Exactly! Even trying the single-player campaign feels like a random quick mission against the AI. There is nothing to draw me in or hold my attention. As for online dogfights, once you've been jumped by a plane flying through trees, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

The fans that would make this game a success, critical and financial are begging for some manner of SEOW, an online war, anything that makes every aircraft that you lose/shoot down matter. That's what this game and community is asking for. People say, "pffft! Go back to your FPS". Right now CLOD online is a first person shooter! Hop into a random battle, last one standing wins! There is no tracking of info, no difference made to the overall picture if you do well or not, just a score card while the next random dogfight loads.
