Sadly saying it doesn't make it true.
If anything in the same genre came out right now CoD would die. The only reason it hasn't is lack of competition.
If it survives sure it might be great, eventually. Until Such time UP/DBW/HSFX all have it easily beaten.

That's in your opinion, I could never go back to 1946 after experiencing the CEM that cod offers!

That is my stand also, no way i'll be satisfied wit 1946 anymore.

Just yesterday our squad (ok, parts of our squad) did some nice destroyer missions on the ATAG server,
the first without fighter cover was a true disaster, but the second and third went flawless with only
one emergency water landing short before the french coast.
Thanks to some 109's who picked up our pursuers.

and thats your opinion, what follows is mine.

The advanced CEM that was supposed to come with CloD was one of the things i was looking forward to most, sadly its woefully short of expectation.

As it stands, since the introduction of patch 4.11 there's little to choose between the 2 in terms of CEM (pre patch 4.11 yes though), in fact, in some ways IL2 is ahead. Little things 'ahem', like radiator drag actually being modelled.

Then to add that there is structural G limits in IL2 as opposed to CloD, not to mention the rather funky dm's in CloD as it stands.

CloD is all potential to me still, theres nothing that holds me to it at the moment. Everytime i fly it, i'm disappointed, unlike when i fly HSFX 6.

The only things i miss from CloD when i fly IL2 is the sky (which is excellent and better than every other flight sim imo), the cockpits/shadows and the feeling of weight and inertia in the fm's (although generally the fm's make me just shake my head is disbelief particularly above 20,000ft).

Sure Clod has the potential to be the best thing around, its just potential at the moment though imho.

That is why no one in my squad is flying CloD at the moment, most have already given up on it. I still hope, but its waning.

Fruitbat,

it is not CoD's fault that people have little faith and endurance.

No, but it is real life's fault that most people only have a limited amount of time to play games, and most on balance want to play something that works.

Like i said, i still have some faith that it will get there, unlike many others, not that is been increased lately by reading about the upcoming MMO announcement.
