rextar Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Here lies the problem, diveplane. ;) The optimizations are from recently. You should take another look at the current build. :thumbup: Strange i can run it with my set up,maybe all guys complaining need to "look" a little closer to home.

SmokeyTheLung Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Agree! These long shadows cast over from the trees late on the day just looks awesome. The visual aspect and depth of the damage model is really unique for WWII sim`s. Indeed, I also love the "special effects" I.e. bomb explosions... Seeing dust get kicked up around an explosion simulating shrapnel (even if it's purely visual) is awesome! System specifications: Computer, joystick, DCS world, Beer

ED Team NineLine Posted October 25, 2012 ED Team Posted October 25, 2012 This sim is a perfect example of what you get when you rush something out before its done. And we should all take note next time we get impatient with ED and their updates and new releases. If you really look at what CloD has to offer and what it could have had, you really can appreciate how much we are missing out. SO many great features and such a good looking sim, marred by poor execution... Its is also a perfect example of how important it is to have people working on a sim that are passionate about the objects they are simulating... when you forum liaison admits he isnt interested in playing the game you have to question that. Question something about the P-51D and you get informed passionate answers.... I will still fly from time to time on the ATAG server, its a fun experience for WWII combat, but left so much on the cutting room floor....

SackDestroyer Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Does CloD have a clickable cockpit? Or is it more 'press e to start the engine' like the original? 1

104th_Crunch Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 It has clickable cockpit and "complex engine management" Yup, not quite as detailed as DCS P-51D though. Been a few months since I loaded COD up, but what ever downfalls it may have, it has a lot greatness in it as well. No other WW2 sim I have played replicates historic battles over the English channel in such an immersive way. Gonna have to use up a lot of my crappy monthly internet allotment and get the update soon.

I believe it is part of the reasons why ED are still in this niche. Read Yo-Yo's post, doesn't matter if you could understand the math behind it, and observe the passion from the man. Warning, majority of his post are dripping with crazy math and subsequently, a migraine starter. :D As for clod, are the flight models still porked? ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

GregP Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 I keep forgetting to try it out whenever I start the game up, will have to do that soon. I've seen lots of people complain that they wish the devs had spent time fixing real problems rather than add an 'arcade' and anachronistic plane like the Su-26 into the game; I can appreciate that perspective, but I also read that the devs had been using the Su-26 as their benchmark for creating realistic FMs, under the presumption that, given that real Su-26 flight data was so easy to obtain, if they could build a virtual model of it that performed fairly realistically, then that meant their overall FM dev process was probably sound and therefore the other planes could also be expected to have similar fidelity. If all that's true, then really it probably wasn't too much work for them to make the Su-26 player flyable, since it was essentially already in the game. I wouldn't regard that as a 'cheap' attempt to placate frustrated COD players as many seem to do.
Sokol1_br Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 but I also read that the devs had been using the Su-26 as their benchmark for creating realistic FMs, Well, like the rest of CloD, Su-26 was launched "unfinished", but is fun. :thumbup: Only he worth 11.32$. Sokol1_Br

SackDestroyer Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Just an FYI: there is a two-for-$25 deal for various sims right now, including Cliffs of Dover, Take On Helicopters, as well as DCS: A10c and Black Shark 2. Wings of Prey is also available, but that is more of an arcade game; Take-On: Hinds add-on is also available but with this deal you'd be better off grabbing one of the other games. Pick any two and get them for 25 bucks. The deal is up for one more day. http://getloadedgo.com/ (What you get here is a Steam activation for the games you purchase, so you'll need Steam to DL your games.) I got Cliffs of Dover and Take-On (since I already own both DCS titles). Haven't tried Take-On yet but I've played with Cliffs of Dover a bit. So far, it seems very good: runs alright with no lag or stuttering, no glitches so far, looks nice.

I didn't think BS2 was available on Steam. Do we get a code to get it from DCS? same-ere.. piece of crap... and those messages that pop up... they're very annoying. They can be turned off if it makes any difference. I picked this up for $5 late last year, and from a technical standpoint at the time, that seemed about right. Since then I've joined a group to fly with and even with all the problems, CloD has become a much greater value. Add on the performance increases we've seen from a multitude of beta patches and release candidates and I would have paid full price.
