Yes, Clod is the best in the genre atm but that's only because of the poor state of the genre. I mean, how many WW2 air combat games (no, the arcadey ones doesn't count) has been released the last few years? How can you be anything but the best if there is no competition? lol! CloD is the best, worst and most mediocre all at the same time.

P.S Also, Clod is relatively more realistic than these up and coming games but compared to real sims it is not. Still, CloD has the best balance when it comes to realism contra gameplay which makes it rewarding although the CEM is almost as simplistic as old IL-2.

I now have a new found calmness over the waiting period for those problems surrounding this magnificent sim. It annoyed me that there over a thousand people flying the other piece of crap, but I think it was because they had coop type missions available, and a crappy arcade option catering for 12 year olds.

The mob that created the other sim have been bleating how good theirs is but it holds nothing next to our sim. Anyway, I will wash myself clean by never again doubting that this 'is' the best sim available, and I just need to be a bit more patient waiting for things to be fully fixed.

A nightmare scenario would be this sim failing and we're left with those other things, they call sims, as the only alternative.

Now deleting that 7G of junk off my PC.
You really have to start a thread about this to comfort yourself? Currently COD bores me to death and DCS World stutters like hell on my pc. My stick makes planes all wobbly in ROF. I fire up Black Shark 1 from time to time but since it has no mission generator I guess I kinda did all in full realism.

So what's left for me? Fire up one of those freemium games? If so, what's wrong with that?

All of those softwares are games. Even DCS which is a monster of a game that takes months to get right (especially the chopper) is just a game. You're not more brilliant if you like it harder or dumber if you like it more straightforward.

If realism is what you are looking for why aren't you all on steelbeasts?

It's like ice cream, if you stuff your face with chocolate you're not less a pig than the guy who goes vanilla.

Anyway I don't really care, I don't know why I post, I must be retarded.

Didn't realise this was your forum. Why so rude?
