Jezzzz

And they wonder why 1C does not post updates every week

This is a given. All theaters use the same game engine and features, the only thing that changes are maps.

Bingo!

It's too bad that some people here are too young or were not around to remember how 1C handled IL-2

Over IL-2's 10+ years we received dozens of free updates that not only fixed bugs but added new planes and maps

And included several sequels that we paid for. Where each sequel not only added new planes, maps, features, but it also included all the resources (planes, maps, ect) from the previous versions.. An all in one package that resulted in maps from all around the world and some 500+ planes to fly

Had these people only been old enough to experience all this I think they would not be so worried/upset by the news that 1C is working on a sequel.

+1.

While i am usually postive about this game, I do have to agree on a few things, its really a mixed bag here. Big furballs kill everyones frame rates it seems and of course the stutters over land and strange framerate dips when theres smoke and when your taking off. Other then these instances the framerate is steady and playable. So yes the preformance is quite bad at times and i can see the frustration with it. On top of the graphical glitches and launcher crashes and the bizzare crash physics are a turn off. But they say the patch will cover all of this...so well Great!

The game does seem a little unfinished but i still am impressed by it in a technical sense, damage modeling, accuracy, clickable cockpits and controls, graphics, flight model, land detail, sound engine.

Please also have them look at the change formation commands. Line astern is executed within a second while forming back to finger four takes a very long time. Doesn't seem right to me.
