Nobody said CoD didn't have problems. It had lots of them, but the potential greatly overshadowed the problems and the many amazing things done right in the sim overshadowed the faults. Except to the nitwits who expected the sim to be perfect from the get-go and who mounted a hate campaign because it wasn't. I have nothing against the unhappy customers who vented their anger once or twice before throwing the sim in the bin. But I pity the psychos who spent two years daily slagging the sim in the most disgusting ways. Poor sods, you know who you are.

What a load of nonsense.

raaaid you were one of the biggest denyers of CoD potential not to mention your rambling ravings.

As for UK gutter press? That may be right in principle but when did they ever bother to publish here? It was not just UK forum users that denigrated CoD.

It failed because there was not the business potential under the current management. It was always going to be a risk. Huge development cost, possible lack of a coherent plan linked to available cutting edge expertise. CoD was always going to be cutting edge.

I think we are waiting for the next generation of developers and tools with the skills, foresight and ability to deliver the next generation flight/combat sim. History shows that nothing is beyond capability. It will come. Look back in 10 years time and it will be laughable. But don't expect to run it in a dual core Dx9 PC.

Tell that to 1C Frey, they pulled the plug, after a year of work on the sequel.
COD just didn't sell enough, most players are offline and stock COD offline is dire.

Was there a hate campaign in every country COD was released?


This is moot anyway, like flogging a dead horse, quite literally.

Yet you and Tree are still here flogging away, why?

I've started using CoD, seeing that it's not going to be (officially) improved/modded, and do you know what? .... I THINK IT'S GREAT!!
For so long, I kept it "on the shelf", because of:
- it's initial performance problems; and
- the massive amount of negativity that abounded on forums, such as this one.
I'm annoyed with myself for having been so misled about it!
Perhaps it was only CoD's last patch that got it right ... I don't know!
All I can say is that I'm now enjoying CoD very much!
