Unfortunately I think they are 5 years too late. I’m not sure if I will buy it or not, in a way I’m tempted, but I haven’t touched CoD since the latest (?) update, and not much in the years before that either. Also bought BoBp a couple of weeks ago, haven’t flown it it yet, so unless DW is really cheap and/or get a huge following, I will not be able to motivate a buy for myself.

I think that I’ll buy it, minimum like a “thanks” for the previous work in COD Blitz… And I think Afrika is the really new theatre in sim and even match with Axis

70 dollari!?!

Yes, 59,94 with Discount in the 1st week

First post updated with the original announcement

I bought a new 55’ TV and saw some youtube videos on it.
clod vs DCS vs Box…
i must say Clod has still the best terrain graphic for me! (i don’t know how will be the desert…)
