The most anoying thing about this sick bunch blaming CloD is the simple fact that the new sim is just the new release, the evolution, of their beloved IL-2 series...

Why this people are so proud of IL-2 1946 modded and talk a lot of crap of IL-2 1946 "vanilla" and CloD?

I spend just about 200 euros to enjoy CloD and wait for BF3. A new 1GB Dx11 VGA.

What I really can see here is a bunch of lazy people or people with dated hardware that STILL talking crap.

Don't forget that a lot of them are probably trying to play on max settings and start to cry when it crashes sad times

I think so that most people that have bought their rig like 1-2 years ago expected that COD runs smoothly on max settings. That just is not anyway posible. My old rig core2 duo 2.4Ghz whit 8G DDR2 was able to run smoothly medium settings -forest low -building ammount low. My old rig was 3 years old so i bought a new one.

Now i have:
Core i7 2600k 3,4Ghz
8GB DDR3 1600Mhz
Gainward GeForce GTX560 Ti Panthom 2GB
Asus P8P67

Now COD runs MAX settings whit AVG fps around 40.
I dropped building detail to medium (cant see any different when airborne)
Also i dropped forest to Medium (cant see any different when airborne)
After this modification to MAX settings i get AVG fps around 50. Depending on the ammount of AC at close range.

I tested my rig Whit MAX settings and whit total number of 125 planes in combat in radius of 3X3km and then fps avg dropped unplayable. Did same test whit 70 planes and it was playable only that AVG fps dropped to around 30.

Whit my old rig 30 planes was absolute limit whit medium settings.

Guys, we aren't morons. I have CLoD. Cdr has CLoD. I think Stubing probably has the game. We all play at WoP Spit/109 for long time. I spent a bunch of time mapping out my controls for CLoD, writing macros for it and I tweaked my settings on my low end system enough to where I could dogfight with 109 just fine. I expected to be buying a new computer when CLoD came out. But the problem is all these "bugs" or just bad design/implementation totally unrelated to CEM/DM. So much so that it overshadows greatly the new CEM and DM models imho.

The question is do you want to spend the next year beta testing CLoD or do you want to spend your time playing upcoming UP 3.0? If you don't have the hardware, why invest in top end hardware for a beta CLoD game and then have that hardware obsolete by the time CLoD is polished a year from now? If you do have the hardware now, why waste your time on a beta game that may or may not ever be completed? At least we have reasonable assurance that UP 3.0 will rock. Vanilla, DT patches and community mods all rolled into one. You get the sounds, the maps...everything. Why not play that for now? We paid money for CLoD to be a complete game. They need to fix it. But it's been like 6 years and Oleg is gone. We're just being realistic I think. Hope to see you at spit/109 when they get 3.0 running.

Everything's in place it is basically complete, all they need to do is optimise the engine and then start work on new aircraft.

That's it we have the new engine yes it's bugged but thats hardly surprising. All we have to do is wait for more content to come along, which it will and like some others on this forum the level of detail in the models, DM and cem have blown me away. I haven't touched 1946 since cod arrived.

I just wish I could fly over London with 60 fps and when we can do that man everyone will finially have to open there eyes and see what a amazing job MG has done.

No, it's not basically complete. It's basically beta. Go to the first page of this thread where luthier has the word BETA, "there are things in the pipline", "not a complete list"...etc. It's all beta now guy. They didn't tell us that when we bought the game. I'm not complaining, that's just reality. There are no 128 plane online battles going on right now. "60fps over London", I don't think the hardware is out yet to do that.

Oh he of little faith and no imagination. time will tell.

I don't disagree that they should have delayed the release but all that is missing from cod at present is polish.

If you have so little interest in Cod why don't you spend your time elsewhere instead of moaning?

Really? This is your argument? That people that don't have enough hardware to play CloD shouldn't make comments? Sorry man but it's a very weak attempt.

I have the hardware and like others have posted CloD is nothing more than a shell of a game at the moment. Sure it will improve but turning on Magnetos and flipping a prop switch is not going to hold interest for very long.

CloD is missing a ton of content... Just look at what was promised and see where that is at this time.

Maybe you need some coffee
