7 out of 10 from me. Still having a blast online but there are just a few to many important omissions to make it rank higher IMO.

4.0

Way too many loose ends.

Ghost trees, lack of coop GUI, launcher crashes, black skins if cache isn't cleared, etc.,.

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.

8 for me. I got a PC that has some specs bellow the required, and the game runs with a fair FPS, anyways I'm not able to play online atm due my specs (it just freezes), but there is no blame because I'm bellow of the specs.

For me, having a general idea of the resources the maddox team had, doing what they did, was a big achievement. For more blame and winning some members did and the stupid reviewers from the outside world of flight sim, that don't understand a thing, this game is awesome. And now with the hardest part done (the game engine) working quite smoothly, it will not take 7 years so see new games. But just a few years to see much more than many people expected.

From me, like all the times I did, maddox team, you got my respect.

5. It's good fun online when you do exactly what you known works but falls apart otherwise. From an external review point of view it is not strong.

I loaded up a SP cross country mission. Couldn't change loadouts. Selected ground start, started in the air. Landed and the grass appeared 10ft away in chunks. Pressed escape to get back to the menu and landed on the desktop. Pressed escape again and back in the aircraft... And so on.

I gave it a 6 because the graphics are still unfinished and the SP play is so bad.

Not sure how anyone could vote 10 or 1 for that matter. Sarcasm votes I guess.

I gave it 5.

The lack of clouds ruins the game for me, they only appear close to you aircraft and they are the same as in old IL-2 just small puffs of cotton. Without clouds and some weather effect there is no flight sim experience.

5 for me.

single player here

-no dcg
-radio commands


That's it, I never really felt that all the fixes were so incredibly necessary.
Performance wise the game always ran just fine for me, I liked the graphics mostly, FM/DM were ok.
Yes a lot of things needed improving and improvements were made to great effect, I will not deny the devs my respect for their dedication.
But my biggest gripe has always been the lack of single player content, especially a dynamic campaign, so people can actually fly and have unrepetitive fun, despite all the other things that needed fixing.

I give it a 4.

Very disapointed on the last year and a half.
