Yes, sure, dissatisfied customers should vent their disapproval, but hating the sim and staying on the forums for two years, posting multiple times every day about that dissatisfaction like some of the haters in here?

- That's no longer being unhappy with a product that cost two movie tickets, that's a campaign of hate to make sure nobody else will be able to give the sim a go. What a waste of a life, but then again, it seems those people didn't really have one...

I would really have liked to give Battle of Moscow a go, but the haters did what they could to deny others that opportunity.

Here are the screenies of what we will never see... Oh rejoice, oh happiness, BOM was cancelled!

In the state the product was you can NOT make customers happy. It starts with the system specs - they recommend a gtx260 while ppl even with most sophisticated(!) rigs couldnt play it without stutter.
Online play? Forget it, CTD.
Great, huh?

Now, imagine we all praised the game, do you think sales would have improved?
No, dissatisfied customers would only think we are nuts.

Is clod beautiful? Yes! and it's a friggin shame they cant fix, nonetheless it never worked liked it was supposed to.
It's like a wonderful handcrafted chef knife which is dull - nice to look at, but unable to do the job.
Unless someone fixes it - unfortunately the gave up, sux.
In the end it's all about the money, if you cant find someone to dump more money into it(and potentially burn it), you'll have to abandon it.
Btw; feel free to start a kickstarter project to finish Clod, its a free world.

The video you posted showed Clod in all its glory, really a sad end. Maybe some modders, one fine day...

My feelings also.

Now,we have a sim that's as good as RoF. Some may say better.

I've owned RoF since it's release and have bought most of the add-ons. I have no problem at all with RoF. I was flying last night on the new Channel map.

Cliffs of Dover was the future. It was a prototype of a unique and advanced product. It had faults,I agree. But when you raise the bar to the height Oleg went for,there will be faults.

I spent £50/$75 on the Collectors Edition.Far less than I've spent on RoF over all. And both are the best of the genre.
