Well-- I don't do all that much online myself...only SDOE. I tried EAW online once...hated it.SDOE is now and has always been to me a great game. I bought it 2 weeks before I was due for my computer and it has not left the desktop since. But it is frustrating to fly a B-17 all the way to target-- and register the target damage yourself but no one else sees it as damaged...but they do see you dropping bomb after bomb after bomb for as long as you are flying-- that is the bomb bug...hilarious at first to see--- tons of explosions and many craters...but if you are flying too low BOOM!!!! The CTD bug is the worst though...ugh! But you know-- I still love this damn game-- and if Mighty or MH do find a way to get us a patch--- it will live strongly for at least another 2 years! ------------------

Well damn, and you didnt tell us? We've been wasting our time for so long. /Sarcasm> Actually, if you ever played online, you'd realize that
[LI]Programmers are smrt and know how to make gameplay relatively lag free nowadays. I've dueled with people in Australia with over a second of lag and hardly notice it.
[LI]The problems online arent generally lag-induced, just needing better algorithms[/LI]
Try online sometime, its probably much better than you think.

I very rarely play offline, except to test a mission or two for online play. Flying against the AI just isn't the same as a real live Chickens. If there was just ONE fix for SDOE, that would have to be the damage-bug. That alone would bring a lot of people back into the game that left a long time ago IMO. I sincerely hope Mighty can work some magic and find a way to get the changes out to the unwashed masses.------------------

Spanky here...
Yeah I noticed no one had mentioned that, Yes the damage-bug is the biggest obsticle to great online play, We have seen people leave the community for this reason alone. Some nights when I used to play online I used to leave for this reason. Well that and the lack of players at decent times for use not on the west side of NA.

Yep, all on-line stuff. Many people wanted to fly OpenPlane WWI on-line, but those terrible bugs was more than they could deal with- and I don't blame them. The CTD and damage bug makes on-line play a shadow of what it could be...------------------
