You disagreed about my view of the game earlier, do you stand by that even if you could only play CloD offline?

I have flown online, and even enjoyed it. But mainly it seems to be twelve-year-olds that want to shoot, get hit, respawn, shoot, get hit, respawn, etc, ad finitum - not my idea of flight or history.

There was no pause button in history either.

Just saying.

In any case, this bickering is pointless.

The game is dead. I don't care how many people fly it currently, it's as dead as a door nail. No chance for further support, no expanding of theatres of operation, no new aircraft, nothing.

It's a pity, this is true, as the flight experience is unmatched by any other props and machine guns sim. But it's now just a dead end and a sad footnote in the history of computer gaming.

That's right, there weren't any computer simulations either...

If there was no online I'ld be exploring the 3rd party missions and campaigns in more depth. From all accounts the desastersoft addons are excelent. The scripting in CoD gives the mission builders a lot of flexability.

I spend most of my time in the Blenhiem trying to avoid fighters and I find that the low down detail and variety of objects available for mission builders is great.
It's a pitty we didn't get a chance to expand into other theatres where mud movers would have more prominence.

Cheers!

Perhaps you enjoy CloD for its online qualities?
I have zero interest in online flying so the game's online qualities are worthless for me.


The Il2 franchise has always been a online sim first.

To bad you missed out, the best pilots are human.
