Yea!!!!

Hi Ilya, thank you for all your work on this simulator. I enjoy it very much and I really appreciate everything you did to get it in the final patch stage.

It really is a sad day, Thanks Luthier for everything you've done for IL2 and the community over the years.
And Clod is simply an amazing feat, a true gem, maybe a little unpolished, but its a gem none the less.

Good Luck for the future, and if you happen to make anymore flight sims, give me a shout, I'll buy it.

Best of luck mate, and if you have the source code please try to leak it out into the community somewhere because I can't see 777's engine even approaching what you and your team have done here. It's been a turbulent time but we can see now that a lot of the troublemakers just appear to be ROF lovers wanting to stick the knife into something better. Troubles aside, we're having an epic time in COD so thank you at least for that.

May the suits at 1C who pulled the plug meet the famous Russian justice system in the near future.

Best of luck for the future Luthier.

I've had more than my moneys worth from Cliffs of Dover. It's a dreadful shame that it has come to this, as with a couple of more patches I feel it would be the best out there.

By the way, I would pay a lot of money for a good (finished ) Korean war flight sim.

All the best,

Choccy.

+1...

And to 1C:

- Go to hell, stupid company!

[Walrus1]

A very very sad day.

Il-2 is over.

Whatever they are making is sure to be the 'Lite' version of what you and Oleg had envisioned.

Thanks for the games and all the work.

Thank you Ilya for everything you done for this sim and old il2.

It is obvious that a lot of love,passion and hard work was invested in development
and clear vision was backing it up.

It is sad that most of us won't get what we hoped for, new serial which would last for years.

Good luck for you in the future and I hope that we will hear about some new project soon.
