War Thunder.... After some time.

Generally you are right with your comment, that they complain graphics so often. I know, that the people of clod are not the same, that are well known in il2. Most guys simply never came to clod, because it do not generate what they all wanted. My known clans all not complain about graphics and also not complain fm. They mainly complain, that cannot fly together in that game in a manner, how you did it in il2. And all we wanted is simple: Polish and advance il2 and its mechanics, regularly fill it with planes and give us a really powerful tool like an advanced SEOW.

Without a tool like that and a powerfull mission builder, clod was dead for most of the il2 guys as they want to play with a story and dynamic theaters. Not only historically correct, but with balanced planesets or with historically correct plabesets, but with resources advantages, etc...

It was dead for all people I know, not because of bad graphics, but with no sense for what a real jagdgeschwader/squadron needs to perform correct flying with immersion.

My immersion is in the things, that are briefed ir in my own mind and never graphically depending.

The engine is powerful, but you cannot fully access them to create a theatre for months. Dynamic campaigns and some sort of SEOW powers are the major backbreaker for my clans and all the people I know. Like ne, they flew perhaps 10-20 hours in clod. And performqnce issues aside, we had no fun to play on an online server, as generally you see perhaps 2-3 squadrobs really playibg it right. The rest is just meeting and shooting. No tactics, no squadron flight techniques, nothing... So: no fun!

So no game to make better with time

[Lexicon]

HI guys,

Well, I think that we can agree on one thing now:

With time and dedication, almost any average/good sim can become great.
EAW, ROF, BOB II, IL2 1946, ATAG for CLOD, and many more have found passionate and dedicated modders that were able to push the boundaries
to make these games great sims...
So who knows where CLOD, WT and BOS will be in few months ?
We can never say never...With any new flight sim that comes on the market.
I still think though, that a game/sim that has great graphics and high FPS for average PC and good playability, at release, has better chance to last and make money. If it lacks "options" , it is more likely that modders would be interested in pushing the game if there is already lots of fans to please.

Salute !

The second project is based on ground war with pilots supporting it.More possibilities than in old il2.

Many think the same and it was a killer they went for DF only.

WT looks fun, my sons flying it, but its not for me.

Very unfortunate about BOM I was looking forward to ground and air collaborations

[smink1701]

Does anyone know when it will be released. I'm guessing about two weeks

Simple truth is Clod demanded a strong upgrade, those people gambled that the devs would tweak it down to their PC level...so, never bought it as show of support, and then we all lost out of what I think would have been great BOM. ground/air sim

I found bombers boring in il2:1946 but my most fond clod memories are flying the bloody blenhiem, such a swine of a plane it was bloody good fun
