Cryptic...as usual

So now I'm thinking that hopefully it's the first of the two options below.......?

Salutes all!

It seems apparent to me that all of us who come from the old IL2 school are not the target of the new plans about which B6 is indirectly referring.
We all try to request and argue for what we think we deserve from CloD, for what we used to have and have to have back, the promises all of us
understood in our own way… but I am afraid we are out.

At this stage it seems that all we can look forward to is an almost acceptable solution to (what they consider) the main problems of CloD, the final
patch/fix. Not because of CloD its self, but because there are things you just have to close before you are able to keep moving forward.

Will see… but the good all times are gone for good. Let see what the new ones bring.

Some of simmers are also gamers console... an epic fail in computer world may not engage to trust in console world at minima. And i'd would not promote any 1C products to friends.

Well.... that's 'reassuring'. Why do I get a sense of impending doom?

I think I can guess what the new ones will bring. Mediocrity, all flash and no substance, dumbed down slop......

I really hoped flight simulators would remain one of the few things on this planet where an intelligent person could still enjoy themselves without having to make constant reparations to those "less able". I see a future of arcadey flight models, meaningless "achievements"..... give it a couple of years and we'll have end of mission bosses.

Don't get me wrong... I enjoy an arcade game as much as the last person... I even watch the occasional soap opera for cheap laughs.... but, in the same way that I can sit on the loo and laugh at the ridiculous stories in a women's magazine, I don't expect to read about that rubbish when I pick up a book on Nietzsche.

Specialist hobbies are being killed off for a fast buck.

At least we still have 1946, I suppose.....

Elitist? Yep! And proud of it!

Is it the devs fault? not really..... it's society's fault.
