… And to inaugurate the new CoD forum :D, I want to propose here, the same “census” recently held among the EAF51 mates.

The purpose is to provide answer to this simple question… how many of us are ready for CoD?

If you will grant me the courtesy of an answer to the questions here below, at the the end, we will be able to figure out how fast the CoD-mania is spreading among us.

1) Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Yes / No
2) Do you have a copy of - CoD? Yes / No
3) Have you installed it? - Yes / No.
4) Did you configure it? - Yes / No
5) Are you making practice with CoD? - Yes / No

Yes No No No No

Looking forward to getting it when we all can fly it together.

Once you get your head around all the engine management stuff, which I’m still learning, you can actually start to fight and for me its the most realistic and best flying so far. With the last patch it works fine for, with stuff turned down.

Still blowing engines in DF and missing everything but its superb fun, especially with others online. :slight_smile:

Chips for me too.

I have to say that from what I can remember, the original IL-2 Sturmovik was in a far worse state at launch then CoD is now (though with a couple of updates), and it can only get better… :wink:

  1. Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Yes
  2. Do you have a copy of - CoD? Yes
  3. Have you installed it? - Yes
  4. Did you configure it? - Yes
  5. Are you making practice with CoD? - Yes a little.

I think it has a very realistic flight model, but I don’t like the lag from when I make a control input to the aircraft reacts. I can see the slow response on the stick in the cockpit.

11
  1. Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Yes & No (CPC=Yes / VGA= NO)
  2. Do you have a copy of - CoD? Yes
  3. Have you installed it? - Yes
  4. Did you configure it? - Yes
  5. Are you making practice with CoD? - Yes
12

yes,yes,yes,yes,no

13
  1. Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Too slow in off-line combat
  2. Do you have a copy of - CoD? Yes
  3. Have you installed it? - Yes
  4. Did you configure it? - No
  5. Are you making practice with CoD? - No, prefer RoF (it’s flyable)
  6. Is CloD ready for us? - No, not yet

Add to which, I prefer bomber to fighter action, which is not the RAF role in BoB

14

I agree with you painter, RoF is very nice and more flyable… but it started first… in many way, CoD is not at the same level… not yet… but it will be fine. Won’t take too much time.

  1. Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Yes
  2. Do you have a copy of - CoD? Yes
  3. Have you installed it? - Yes
  4. Did you configure it? - Yes
  5. Are you making practice with CoD? - No

After waiting so long for this sim to find the actual game is so poor is very disappointing, i still can’t believe they got it so wrong after all their years of experience with IL2.

I have great difficulty with the very poor terrain, especially when i compare it to ROF and i still cannot accept the star wars type laser beams when i fire my .303’s. We have better effects in IL2.

Seriously i wish i had not wasted my hard earned cash on this piece of rubbish.

16
  1. Is your PC fast enough to run COD? - Not sure?
  2. Do you have a copy of - CoD? No(When Steam sells it for $5.00 ill buy it)
  3. Have you installed it? - No
  4. Did you configure it? - No
  5. Are you making practice with CoD? - Nope

Thanks Meako. The game has improved a lot with the pacth 1.5… and lot has to be done. Today I re-downloaded RoF. I found it excellent, not much to do with its first release, I’m sure the same will happen with CoD… just matter of time. :slight_smile:

18

Thanks Osprey, I see your point, RoF is excellent, and very intersting now that there is FEWS… may be not now, but I think I’ll fly RoF too. There is one thing I did not understand: Must buy the DVD, or just register the downladable demo and then buy eirplanes, separately?
