Besides, Ilya has already stated that code section with the memory leak is not there in the new patch, so I don't understand why everyone asks the same question over and over again... But OK, I maybe do understand the anxiety as it's the memory leak that has made me stop playing the game since the last patch

Proof is in the pudding...So if the pudding has a viable recipe.. we might finally..have a flyable Sim!

do we really give a sh** about the sequel when the game we paid for all that time ago still runs like a beta?
Fix the AI
Fix the sound
Fix the map
Fix the Launcher
Fix the FPS
Fix the Weather
Fix the scripts
Fix the FMB
Add some useful ships
Fix the balancing of Axis to Allied Bombers
Fix the Navigation

These issues need to be addressed, or take the game off steam and release the Full SDK to the community and let them sort it out!

+1 ,here's hoping the patch is heading towards this.

I think you must not understand that all of the fixes that everyone wants will apply to both the CoD AND the sequel, BoM or whatever it will be called.

The game engine will be the same for both.

When they redo the graphics engine.
When they fix the AI.
Add weather effects.
Map.
Etc.

These changes will apply to both Cliffs of Dover and Battle of Moscow.

The developers know that for any sequel to be successful, these things must be fixed or improved, and these fixes and improvements will apply to both games.

True.
The only problem is that these things are still to be solved, almost a year since the release of the first title.
I think a little bit of impatience is understandable, especially when you consider that the singleplayer still presents several problems.

I'm confident and patient.

Greetings!

they are priority in the life :
firts make a yellow tree and 2 more week after perhaps they'll fix cod...

i dream if the dev make yellow tree, that significate all the fix were done...

but i'm realistic contrary to luthier...

Most games that are run in DX11 instead of 10 show an increase in FPS because DX11 is more streamlines or optimized than DX10. Naturally that's only true as long as you don't start enabling a bunch of DX11 features.

To sum it up, DX11 is better than DX10.

true.

I play this sim about once a month. When ever I play the sim I have to play a quick mission because if I don't do that first and then go into the FMB whenever I launch a mission created or originated there I always get a CTD. It's weird but that's the way around getting booted out of the game. Remember that weird thing with Il-2 where after launching you had to collapse it to desktop and then bring it back up...we put up with a lot with this stuff because in the end it delivers, but it's not smooth sailing, but these are rough seas at the moment. I take it the update'll be Thursday instead of Friday?

Type BlackSix in that box.
voila!
Sometimes I wish I could just do the same...

Try that.
