Oleg would release CoD with poor terrain and clouds ? With wrong colors and textures ? Not as good or better than BoP in these matters ?
The whole sim community around the world is waiting for this game to come out, and expectations are so high, that every little flaw will be criticized, scrutinized and put in the "faillure folder" till everyone only talks about what is NOT in the game....Oleg knows all that...Don't worry...He's been reading every comment on this forum from the very start...

Salute !

Well luthier is being very cautious about what features have been left out, but my guess is it will be all those extra special things that Oleg first got us excited about in early interviews. The dropped features maybe the hidden surprise that we have all been expecting, a surprise isnt always a good thing

My guess is that the following will be missing.


DX11- Oleg 100% confirmed this would be in the game but it failed to make the final cut.

Manned AA guns - been no mention of this since early interviews and no screenshots showing any manual use of an AA gun.

Dynamic weather - again this as dropped off the radar and veiled in secrecy which means its most likely not going to make initial release

Clouds - Again another mystery

Sounds - Nobody has got a clue as to what the aircraft sounds will be like.

Interesting debate indeed !

1-DX11- Oleg 100% confirmed this would be in the game but it failed to make the final cut.

Well, knowing how cautious Oleg is, if he confirmed, so will be...


2-Manned AA guns - been no mention of this since early interviews and no screenshots showing any manual use of an AA gun.

On this one, I agree...Wont be at release...


3-Dynamic weather - again this as dropped off the radar and veiled in secrecy which means its most likely not going to make initial release

I think this is a main feature that Oleg has been working on since the very begining ...Was even shown on an early promo video.....IMHO, will be at release....


4-Clouds - Again another mystery

Same as # 3:I think this is a main feature that Oleg has been working on since the very begining ...Was even shown on an early promo video.....IMHO, will be at release....

Of course, this is for fun and only speculating !

Salute !
