I would consider it if it wasnt for the terrible AI with constant rolling and a rollrate of 1000 degrees per second...
This added to the fact that the AI spends all the ammo in deflection shots without correcting if they missing makes any offline campaign a no go for me..

Have you played the LW campaign or the RAF one? I've had a constant CTD approaching Le Havre to land in LW mission 1. Mr. Voss thinks it's related to the alpha patch, and not in his software, or the beta Nvidia drivers I'm using.

@Anders - have you played it? So far, I haven't gotten any AI rolling, I think they've tweaked the AI settings to eliminate that (haven't run into any obvious Ace level enemies yet, so not 100% sure how it will play out).

No I havent tried it and if it as you say (that they tweaked the AI) then it certainly makes it alot more promising!!

Hey this looks pretty good and would be right up my alley as I mainly fly offline.
I may have to give this a try - still kind of in a holding pattern for the patch to become final, would be a great way to break in CLOD when I do get going with it though.

I'll try to give another report when I've completed more missions and advise how the E/A behavior is.

I've had the Wick v Dundas add on for about a week now and it has really re-newed my previously flagging interest in CloD.

There's a huge amount of content and I'm finding tha AI a lot better than in vanilla CloD. I've also not noticed so much of the crazy AI barrel rolling etc whilst playing these missions.

Well worth it IMO and the English version is now available as a download with a conversion for the 'Channel Battles' also in the pipeline.

I got the Wick vs Dundas addon a few days ago and have enjoyed it so far. Only thing bums me out is if you get killed you have to start from scratch again. Makes you really want to try to get home in one piece. Had a few ctd's at first but things seem to have stabilized an no more ctd's. Getting between 70 and 85 fps. Dug up and old 22 inch Mitsubishi crt and it runs very smooth. No more mini stutters.

You can Choose, with wich Mission you beginn a Campaign. So you can go on from the last Mission, but without your efforts...
