What's currently stopping you ??

[Mysticpuma]

For me its the following and in order.

1. Building pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted.
1a) Weather/Clouds/ Overcast (lack of any real weather effects or immersion)
2. Crap AI
3. Poor FM's
4. Slow downs, dust particles/smoke and zooming in
5.Stutters (micro)
6. Flickering trees
7. Netcode (as I mainly play offline)
8. No Anti-Aliasing
9. Ridiculously hard to use in-game .avi creator with no manual to explain just how to use it effectively!
10. Just in-case you forgot since I mentioned it- Building pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted when others make it look easy.
11. Loadout can't be changed on some aircraft (and even if you say it can...I can't do it!)
12. Basically no Single player content that is enjoyable due to "2. Crap AI" and the ridiculous response of the enemy when attacked. Either carries on regardless and gets shot up or does amazing impossible rolls until it thinks you aren't following anymore....and repeats until either dead or escapes

S!

Nothing stops me from playing CoD, but I don't play it at all these days. Have other games to play meanwhile waiting for CoD being patched or it's sequel released. Then take another look.

The people too busy not upgrading or moaning about things to come play multiplayer...

For me, I just want them to sort out the Aircraft weathering thats all especially the Spitfire, not asking much we can add our own.

no windows 8 support, I just upgraded my rig, keep popping back to see if any progress, don't mind waiting hopefully soon the devs will spend a few minutes to bypass metro.

All of the above, plus the fact that-

1. UP3-RC4 has tons of great maps.
2. Mission building doesn't need a degree in quantum physics.
3. It has a very easy to use interface.
4. You can record on the fly.
5. It has fantastic effects and sound mods available for easy installation.
6. No problems with online play.
7. Thousands of objects, planes, tanks, armour, ships etc all easy to use in mission building and much much more.

I keep coming back to C.O.D. hoping, but disappointed I go straight back to iL2 UP3-RC4.

Praise be to Oleg.
cheers,
Ibis.

.... Recently my squadron comrades talked me into installing tha latest beta patch and fly again with them. I didnt fly CloD for a long time because it never evoked the same enthusiasm in me as the old IL2 did.
Even though the desastersoft campaigns are good, the overall sim is not!
Instead I`m flying ROF, a much better sim at the moment!

So, after they had talked me into flying again, we went on an escort mission to Ramsgate or so, escorting some 110s to their target. Over Ramsgate flak, exloding bombs on the ground and whatnot caused such a terrible lag that I had screenfreeze after screenfreeze (and I do not have an outdated PC) . It was so bad that continuing was no option anymore.

I dont know, but CloD has completely denatured my passion for WW2 flightsims. I really wonder what is going on in the heads of the guys at 1C Company. How can they expect that their sequel will sell, after such a poor performance and no major improvements more than a year after release of CloD. Only the fanboys will probably jump on the sequel as soon as available but they are not going to be enough to get overall big sales figures I guess.

And then MG will go under and no one else will bother for years to produce a sim to the same scale that MG is trying, I will be supporting the next game as at least MG have the balls to try and push the boat out instead of making the same old fps that 99% of the other developers do.

What are your specs, what are your in game setting I bet good money that the problem lies there!

... I got win7 professional, Quad-core CPU, NVidia GTX570, 8GB RAM.
My CloD ingame graphics settings are all on medium.
Everything else runs with no problem on high settings, Skyrim, Crysis2 and other games that look graphically more impressive than CloD.

Thanks for your reply anyway
