The original IL-2 series has still not reached its full potential, but it didn't stop users from enjoying the long process. I agree that the new series has had a rocky start, because its far more complex game engine is still not complete. The very good news is that the developer is still working on the project and hiring new people, which bodes well for another long run of theaters and new features. Unfortunately the rocky start has the developer reticent to say exactly what they're working on except in vague terms, less its thrown back in their face in a venomous fashion for not achieving their goals.
