Il2 COD Tsunami

Aye, I think stuff like that is bound to happen in any such online game. I had no trouble recognizing some things from the good old Ubizoo IL-2 forum when reading that and I think there was a jab or two at Fallout 3 too.

That's one of the reason I like Silent Hunter 3. If a boat in it is modelled wrong, then at least it's modelled wrong for all of us. While I'm still hoping for a new Destroyer Command and could even find its multiplayer aspect interesting, I can only wonder if we would start getting similar topics too. Or maybe not here, but in the official forum. Were there any with the original DC and SH 2 combo?

The problem is that people want balance. Or no, that's not a problem, but in fact it contains two problems itself. One of them is that life isn't balanced. You go against an F-16 with a Fokker D.XXI and you're very likely to get blown to bits. But some people still insist that it should be a balanced fight, because otherwise the game isn't fun. The other thing is that their idea of "balance" is having a plane or whatever with which they couldn't lose even if they sank it into a pool of lava. I haven't ever seen anyone in any forum crying for balance that would make the opposing side's assets more challenging for the topic starter.

And unfortunately sometimes the loudest are the ones that get listened to. I'm afraid it will eventually happen with this title too. In some cases I think it happened with IL-2 too.
