Yes, but they're not my cup of tea, either. To explain: I prefer campaigns which tell a story, Desastersoft does achievement campaigns. They use success/defeat criteria, I don't like that (storytelling, remember?). Nothing wrong with their way, it just ain't mine. Sadly.

Which is also the very reason I didn't bother either..

I am 100 percent SP so I give the graphics a 10 and gameplay a 5. That's a 7.5 overall which sounds about right. If they can add features, significantly improve AI, FMs and give us a much better GUI and missions, they / we will have a 10 with BOM.

Desastersoft...Would it not be very hard to adjust their missions, rewrite the briefs and so have your story...the hard work is already there with the populated environment

Sorry for OT, I promise it'll be my last sojourn there.

Economical considerations. They're not making much of a gain with their products, but they don't want to invest more than they get, either. That's essentially the reason why you shouldn't expect big changes in their general system. As for someone editing their missions ... you'd have to have an understanding of scripting, which I lack completely. Maybe I'll try my hand at making some single missions when I can find some poor sod who codes my ideas. But more is pretty much impossible.

Exactly why I never got into mission building for CLOD. And I really wanted to.

The Mission Builder is great but I just don't have the time to learn how to script.

BTW I scored a 6.

Offline pilot here and overall I find the game to be too aggravating to really get into.

Missed opportunity; if only they'd had another year of development time.

The poll is about Cliffs not DesasterSoft who gain a 10 !
Online i give a 7, offline a 0 (lack of campaigns, features like comms, etc...). So 4 is well paid for an half job done, the comptent & indifférence.

6/10

As a online player i see some improvement since relased game but for me it is still unfinished and too many things not fixed expecially the most important for me:

- planes visibility - very poor, planes disaapering with FOV changing even at close distance

- FM and performacne - poor high alts performacne for all planes, Merlin engine problems (RPMs jerking at some alts), not accurate performacne of planes comparing to RL data and test

- too many stutters during online playing ( beta RC 2 was much better)

So still not too much sense to play for me and probably im backig to ROF and wait for BOM
