If I spend the price of CoD on a meal (depending where you bought it, from £5 to £60...) and it was not what I expected then I would complain about the meal, then leave the restaurant and not go back.I'm pretty sure if the restaurant had a forum I wouldn't spend the rest of my life on that forum complaining non stop...
Its a cheap game, to while away a few hours of your time if you wish, not life and death.

lol, good point, although some people have spent more than £1000 on the knife and fork to eat the cheap crappy meal....

To spend that kind of money for one computer game must be punished!

Though, the majority of the people doesn't feels punished, i wonder why.

maybe if most of the world wasnt a slave to the money.. we wouldnt care about what it should of been worth... Its sad that it will allways come down to money. If you had to live without money most of everyone would die.

Who said anything about money? Personally, this sim has been a disappointment but I've still got more then enough out of the 35 odd euros I spent on it. I had high expectations, too high I guess. What's it been now? 6 months after release? still it's not what I would've liked it to be and it probably never will be, maybe the next installment will.

I have accepted it though, like a mongrel homeless dog, it's not the prettiest but if you provide it with a home and some care it will reward you.

I'm on page 1 of the Sams Teach Your self C# in 21 days manual.

I asked Oleg if the CoD FMB gui was going to be different from the old IL2 one, the reply was "no same old gui" but they didn't say it needs C# programming to get it to work some of the promised features.

Why they never just made the FMB as simple to use as the old version I have no idea.

CooP missions, why is there no IL2 1946 mission start/close type of gui, instead aircraft are running and taking off before everyone's armed and hit fly, and closing the mission no pilots stats/points/kills etc ??
Its not a CooP more like a DF server.

Even online gui is ridiculous with the info windows that need f10 key used all the time then open and close a window to activate a new box ??? ......... ............straight to the scene of the accident.

Making CoD more user friendly for all instead of a few C# programmers being able to host missions, would be a catalyst for getting CoD off the ground properly, so far we have a few DF servers (thankfully) but no CooPs being hosted or more individuals testing the online experience outside of the few DF servers.

Hopefully CooP feature will be fixed like the old style one with a ready room and debriefing area.

Back to the C# book............
