As the forum is boiling in anticipation for some possible statement tomorrow and we love speculating (come on - why are you here?)...

So, is the "leaked" collectors edition a fake or not? We will get the answer tomorrow and I start by casting my vote at "Fake!"... Will probably have to have to regret it ;)

Given that Ubisoft have said it is a leak...yer, it's real.

ed: beaten to it.

My wish that it isn't UBI will probably sink like Titanic did, but I am staying with the ship. :mrgreen:

Fake would require too many unlikely coincidences. That doesn't mean every detail about box art, content or release date is final but I have no doubt that an announcement is imminent.

Don't count on Oleg confirming anything - if he couldn't so far chances are he can't tomorrow either.

A recent study showed that french people were the most pessimistic people in the world... so I have to say it's fake !!! (I hope it's not)

I would be too disappointed to say it's real and learn it's not... i prefer to expect the worse and be happily surprised !

I don't think it is the final packaging. Maybe a suggested package put together by the publisher, awaiting improvements.
If it really was a leak, then it could be leaked 'WIP' packaging.

At least it looks like there could be a physical DVD available, and not just a download version.

There are to many gaming website posting information about Cliffs of Dover and there are IC versions and Ubi versions which makes this all being a fake VERY unlikely.

I have been in touch with Dilip Sarkar recently, and I think I can say for certain his book (the Spitfire Manual) is not forming part of BoB SoW. This is a great fake - kudos to the creator!

This has been posted at SimHQ by guod when asked why the delay in their interivew with Oleg.

"Name change is finalized... IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover"

"This was one of the delays for the interview, but I couldn't say earlier. My guess on the interview now is first part of February. I'm guessing so don't hold me to that timeline. I'd guessed December before and was wrong on that! There are a few more things coming before Oleg can complete his responses. But it should be worth the extra wait."

How can a Spitfire manual be "his" book?

Unless he wrote the orginal manual?

Not trying to be "that guy", just wondering (dont even know if the real manual looks like that)

P.S. there are 2 differant takes on how collectors edition would (if real) look like and the manual looks differant in thoose 2 variants?

I like the new name!...and we are moving at full steam ahead it seems.

I say its fake because i dont like at all the new name, to be honest i hate it. Don't like they put IL-2 Sturmovik on it like if its of the same franchise when its something completely new.
Very nice cover Qpassa, way better than the so called leaked cover.

A 12 year old age limit would certainly help sales...very much so.

GAHHH

It pisses me off every time I see the name "Cliffs of Dover IL2 Sturmovik"

It's a STUPID name

Il2 is not compatible with it. The gah-damm Il2 isn't even IN the simulation! It is flaming stoopid to have the aircraft in the name.

Might as well call it "Cliffs of Dover: Hughes racer" or "AH-64 Gunship: Cliffs of Dover"

The good news is that is my sole complaint about the simulation

You really aren't alone on this, but hey what's the sense going off the deep end.

We would all like for Oleg to be successful with whatever he calls it.
