Simulation or Shoot-em-up?

[ocococ]

If the plan was to drop support for COD, there would have been a world wide same day release, where they took the money and run. They certainly wouldn't have done an Eastern release with all the bad publicity that caused, then worked 24/7 for months for the western release. The plan is still to support and add on to the series for years. The early release just enfused the project with much need cash to continue work. The devs and publishers have certainly taken a serious publicity hit, but I suspect most in the community understand the process and have enough foresight to see the product improved for many years.

We all wish for that, but you have to admit there is no guarantee.

CoD was not the first flight simulator of Maddox Games as they already had a multi-year experience in developing IL-2.

So it is not fair to compare the 2 games from their release as many do.

You can somewhat forgive newly formed dev-teams like 777 now or Eagle Dynamics (in the old LockOn era) for "rookie" early mistakes, but you wouldn't expect that pre-alpha quality software from the best sim developers in the world.


I wish I will be wrong, but the (very basic) issues that are fixed in the recent patches indicate a stalled development without a bright future in sight. I see it like they all originate from a max of 2 persons working full-time. Probably a programmer and a tester.

Time will tell...

Syn, I never said I was making an argument nor have I promoted rof. In fact the game is still nothing compared to the old il 2. I also do have cod so if I want to say it is bad then I can say so because that is what a forum is for. The only thing laughable here is you not knowing what trolling means and your attempt to justify selling an alpha for $44. I didn't come here to get insulted for stating my opinion on the state of the game. I didn't get this game for it's potential just like I didn't get rof for it's potential but I'll gladly wait since I got the game anyway. Either accept it or throw around your argument to someone that cares enough. This is really ******* stupid since you obviously haven't played rof and heavily biased towards cod. It's like trying to tell a christian there is no god (which there isn't). Protip to myself: never post an opinion that isn't in favor of cod on the European 1c forums.

Clearly, you are even incapable of reading comprehension.

It's nice to see you waved the white flag though.

Thanks for posting and showing you care (errr, don't care lol)..

Bye now!

[TacKY]

White flag? I merely don't want to keep on looking at these forums. YOu seem to can't comPrehend that someone doesn't like cod and all it's mediocrity. The only person that can't comprehend simple English is you seeing as you have taken a simple statement about rof and taken it two pages. Let me clarify since you may have a tough time reading. Rof is better than cod IMO. Cwutididthar. It's crazy when you add IMO.

[ATAG_Bliss]

You must have foot in mouth disease. 1st you go out and type a paragraph stating that ROF is better on the home of the forums for IL2. And then have the audacity to say you weren't wanting to get into an argument? Clearly you're not very smart and after being told by several people, including me why ROF will not hold a candle to this sim by some very valid points, the only thing you can say is that you don't care enough to argue and now you don't care enough to look at these forums? Yet you DO care because you are arguing and posting on these forums.

You are one big oxymoron.

Congrats!

Btw, thanks again for showing you don't care!

[TacKY]

I typed a paragraph that said what I thought about the game. I was tired of people trying to bring down rof because of cod shortcomings. You guys seemingly aren't smart because you are fighting with a ghost. I think rof is better only because of its stability and wilsons dynamic campaign. I agree on some points of you guys but the whole waiting for the actual game argument is absurd. My bd if you took my first statement the wrong way. Cod can be a good game bit waiting two years isn't really acceptable.

[ATAG_Bliss]

Where in any of my posts say anything about bringing ROF down? based on COD's shortcomings? Oh that's right! I didn't say that! I brought ROF down based upon it's OWN shortcomings!

Again, the reading comprehension with you isn't very good.

It plays ROF and FSX (with lots of nice add-ons and enhancements) very well.

Syn, I wasn't talking about you lol. I meant over the past couPle of weeks. Nothing wrong with my reading.

[ATAG_Bliss]

Oh, so who were you referring to? Can you provide some links to the posts? I read this forums regularly and haven't seen what you are talking about.

(Foot in mouth here we go!)
