What's naive about the facts? Please enlighten me as I fail to see where I have been naive in voicing my dissapointment on how CloD is not being expanded on based on Luthier's post.

But others had a go at explaining and you didn't agree so not much point.

Nothing naive about that...I offered my opinion on the subject. I could say 'naive' to all for putting up with something poor for over 8 months and then accepting that you will have to pay for certain elements (BoM) that should have been in the game in the first place.

That said this is the only decent WWII sim out there and I have faith that it will be resolved.

Just dissapointed that it has become a sandbox very early on (or not in this case) than further developer support on kit in the game.

BOM has nothing to do with the BOB, why should it have been included?

Have you been living in a dark hole? Because they are already in CloD, because they were heavily discussed in developer posts by Oleg prior to CloD's release and because 1C have realised they have bitten off more than they can chew in getting CloD engine up to scratch so they have been downgraded in priority and shifted to BoM that will use the new 'updated' engine from scratch.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum.

What are 'they'?

Why shouldn't BOM use the upgraded engine from scratch? after all the updated engine will be a result of successfully patching COD, the hole I live in is obviously not as deep as yours.

For me it still sounds like a slightly milder form of the I(nstant) G(ratification)S(yndrom)

Robtek, what would be a reasonable time frame from release to expect the AI to be fixed?
