I was absolutely livid about this. I don't feel like the game has really even gotten that far into/or out of it's Beta period. Do half the radio commands still not work or am I stupid? In any case - I find it hard not to be disappointed that development of CoD may be coming to an end before it's really "there".

I remember when they said they'd fix SLI in a couple of weeks and there'd be new campaigns and so forth in the coming months (no sign of either). I hate that the planes don't work together with proper tactics from the time - which I feel should be a strong part of the mission flavour.. The campaign was really poor I thought.

If they'd have done a preorder/ paid alpha type setup, finished a couple of more study level plane simulations and the main game engine - and then followed up with strong DLC planes and campaigns.. I'd have been really into that. I feel like there's no point making missions right now in it's current state.

I'm just taken aback that this is the same people that made Il2 - and gave us so much over all that time. I'm sure they work hard - but ultimately perhaps there is just too much to do and fix - hence the mess - and actually marketing/ release approach - all of these things need to be changed to something like what ROF and DCS are doing in order to ever do this kind of game justice (sorry if this is heading off topic).

I think it's the lack of any real progress since release.
Performance problems aside, I was positive in the beginning that they would fix (replace) the user interface, well...

One of the features I used most in Il2/46 was probably the Quick Mission Builder, which is nowhere to be found in CLOD. Yes, there is a sort of alternative but the options are more limited, and again the UI is just..ugh.

Another thing is, I don't have quite so much spare time as I used to.
