You'll have contrails at 21000ft, no problem.

Ya well this is a direct quote from Luthier - 'No, we had planned on adding more BOB content, but this Furbs fellow kept saying there would be no additions, so we scrapped it.'

You'll have contrails at 21000ft, no problem.

We've performed a tremendous amount of work testing and improving flight models in the game, as well as improving various aircraft engines. We used actual pilot's notes and flight testing data during the process (thank you Sean!). Unfortunately some deeply-set limitations in the engine code do not allow us to minimize the margin of error at altitudes about 7 km (21,000 ft) where most aircraft begin to perform worse than their real-life counterparts. Fixing this requires more extensive code rework and will therefore only appear with the upcoming sequel. However at lower altitudes most flyables will perform much closer to real life. We also have to note that some aircraft, most notably Spitfire Mk.II, had better performance than the real thing. Others, especially their engines, had reduced performance. We've addressed these serious issues and made our planes fly much closer to the real thing.

More specifically:

G.50
Temperature models of the engine were wrong due to incorrect data. The engine could not get up to required power at all altitudes. We've also added +100 boost for WEP mode.

Spitfire Mk.II
The aircraft's speed performance was too good at all altitudes, sometimes 60 mph better than the real thing.

Spitfire Mk.I
Fixed the top speed dip above 18,000 ft.

Hurricane Mk.I
Speed performance was also too good at all altitudes, similar to the Spit II.

Blenheim Mk.IV
Had many problems with the engine model. The engine overheated at normal RPM, the plane could not get up to stated airspeed at all altitudes. Maximum allowed airspeed was too great, and the plane could get up to 560 mph in a dive. A huge amount of work was performed to improve the plane's FM and bring it up to speed.

As much as the patch is welcome, what is really disappointing is CLOD will never be a full BOB sim, no squadrons, no pilot roster, no proper pilots career. You cant even enter a pilots name.
When you fire up CLOD there is NOTHING in the game that makes you feel your taking part in the Battle of Britian, no history, no immersion and the GUI is cold and uninviting, nothing that draws you to single player.

True Uther, Though im a 90% online player i still like to fly a offline career now and again.

Just all them years of waiting and dreaming of what CLOD would be, then seeing the state of the released sim it was very dis-heartening, but now to it wont ever be a real BOB sim is gutting.

How many years until the next BOB sim?
