Friday Update - December 9, 2011

[esmiol]

everybody knows that all feature predicted during the devellopement may not be in the release version (because of time and be implemented later or maybe cancelled because of ressources)

but in the case of IL2 Cliffs of dover... we don't even have what we had with the old il2 when the first episode is coming out.

IA order, different weather....stability....ability to get out of his plane on ground... miror....

the fact is that they had a lot and a lot of work to do...and the minimum is to put all r'essources on BOB before doing a sequel!

we are really not in the time of first il2 where we had new plane free and lot of free patch who add feature...before buyable addons.

Everybody knows?

So, let me see if I understand you correctly.. Your saying that all the people who are saying we were lied to and ripped off because of a missing feature that Oleg may have mentioned once or twice over the past 6+ years of CoD dev are lying?

Huh, becaues up to now I was just giving them the benifit of the doubt that they didn't know or didn't understand

Just to be clear, I am not saying there are no issues with CoD. All I am saying is we should focus our efforts on real issues not myths

We could bail out, but not get out and walk around. To me, not being able to bail out while sitting on the ground during taxi is a none issue

Depends.. I for one am looking forward to the sequel, just as I looked forward to the half dozen or so IL-2 sequels that came out over the past 10 years.. Where the support for the previous version stopped and all efforts were put into the current version

That is the problem with giving away stuff for free.. People start to expect you to give stuff away for free.. I think 1C should do as RoF does and charge $ for each new plane they provide.. Than that expectaion would go away
