I flew those missions. Hundreds of them. They have been the single thing closest to an actual online dynamic campaign. But as you may know there was a website with tools, map, statistics, ready scripts and such. This led for main leader players to generate a mission file and off we go.

In the state this game is actually : can I turn on something like Hyperlobby and enter a slot to wait for an online coop mission? That is my most basic question for my most basic online sim game.

Where do we exactly miss the point with CloD?

Well... if someone makes a website with tools, maps, statistics and all that, capable of generate CoD missions (as I said, the structure is similar to old IL-2 so this must not be very difficult) and read CoD logs, I think that that's all the necessary to make an old style online war.

The missions can be generated with a coop script that, for example, forces the players to fly only in their assigned plane at the moment of generating the mission. Like I said the possibilities are nearly endless, but im not a programmer, so I don't know how to do it, only that can be done

There are simply things that are missing, hidden, or otherwise impossible to do.

As I said I'm not a programmer and I don't know how to do it. But it can be done.

LOL! I've been around since the blue-byte days mate. It was a great time, I kept begging for screenshots of the MiG-3 together with "Cat", maybe you remember her? Maybe you remember Galen Thurber? It doesn't matter what you try to convince other people of, facts still remain and you are pointing to the past and the past doesn't guarantee the future.

But to tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine?

Don't you think that is a little childish?

So how long is BOM away? 6 months? a year? 2 years?

CLOD is 60% finished and almost nothing works as should or was advertised...now we have to wait until BOM to "MAYBE" have CLOD fixed.

And you think this is a good way to treat paying customers?

CLOD doesnt need CO-OPs? Luthier is just sayng that because they cant or wont fix it.

It hasn't died, it may not be perfect but better than anything else in my book. I booted Il1946 yesterday and had an enjoyable time but it looked dated and was too simplistic compared to ClOD to hold my attention for more than just a few sorties. MP has a good community and the majority of players believe this SIM is pretty awesome despite the flaws. It will get better, it will have sequels and it will continue to have support - you can delete it of course, entirely up to you but one mans 'pos' is another mans potential little gem!

S!

Just get the performance/GFX patch out along with a well documented SDK and the fan base will take care of the rest

Well it seems that after reading all of that. That in order to see improvements in CLOD you will have to buy the expansion.. And i get the horrible feeling that the next patch will BE the expansion, which equals paying cash for fixes. I certainly HOPE this isn't the case. Am i complaining? Sure am

Regards
