It has to be just around the corner.

I wouldn't be all that surprised if it was out there somewhere and we just don't know the URL yet....

Would be nice to see a new hands-on report from one of the big gaming sites too.

One thing is certain - the time to start building hype is well and truly here.

The whole industry runs on hype, it's a necessary evil :)

Yes, I asked Anton if site will launch before or after GDC and he said the important people are at the event and will launch when they get back. So, I assume tomorrow or next couple of days hopefully.:-)

Anton said it will have more info on IL2 BoP so I look forward to seeing the list of planes, pictures, trailors, and all kinds of new info on it.:grin:

And maybe we'll possibly get a possible release date!:grin:

Guys, most of team are not excellent players (not taking game designers and testers in account). So you won't get fun in both cases - game designers are able to play VERY good on 10x game speed (for debugging purposes), and engineers are simply average.

I can't believe there isn't a website yet. If they are planning on releasing a date for the website it will probably be a while and for people who think the game is coming out this summer better shoot that out of the water, I don't think two months is long enough for the website to be up to promote the game. Heroes over Europe has had one for months and it had a expected release or Spring. Of course it's not here and that game looks inferior to BOP and they don't even know if they have a publisher or not but they do have a site. This makes me think the game won't come out till the holiday season. But I can't wait no matter what. If it is better than the original I am eagerly awaiting this game because I loved the original.

Indeed, i'm sure Anton is doing his best.

However, the fact that we are waiting for the release date of the website does not bode well for the release date of the game itself.

Well Anton did say July is very possible.:)

Besides, you have to remember that they spent a lot of time focusing on finishing the Xbox360 version and are still developing the other console versions for simultanious release.

I think it is good for them to get the site up. And Anton did say it is almost ready and has launch date (the day after he said he'd find it:cool:), so I am awaiting patiently for launch.

Can't wait to see the amazing materials on it. Anton did say he was making them for the site so I expect great new things.:grin:

Yeah it would be great to see more vids using the cockpit view. Would also be great to see some takeoffs and landings from cockpit perspective.

I'd also like to see some ground forces in action. Can we see individual infantry on the ground I wonder?

Really, if this game lives up to the videos we have already seen it is going to be............BRILLIANT.

It will depends on how Birds of Prey will perform.
However, we are interested in using our experinece in flight sim genre in at least one new project.

Have you guys considered a modern flight project for consoles?
The only semi-sim we've had is Over G Fighters. Great game, but horrible presentation. I'd love to see something more open too. You guys could do a killer game in that genre.

A WW2 Pacific theater sequel would be great!!! I feel WW2 was the most exciting era in aviation, so I hope you guys would stick to that period in time.

European or Pacific... I don't care, as long as it's still WW2!!!!

Yes, please stick to WWII. I am sick of "fire and forget".

A Pacific theatre would be great. Like recreating IL2 versions for the consoles. That would be awesome.

Or Korea, but no further.

WWII is great, but so would a Vietnam era game be. Jets, but still a lot of reliance on guns and poor performing missiles. ;)
I'd love an F-4 with missiles making pretty trails through the air in random directions. LOL Include various choppers...oh yeah.
Bring it from Vietnam through the 80's. Give me an A-10 and an F-15 and I'll be happy for years. Perfect companion to IL2, I wouldn't need any PC games then. :grin:

I don't know. It wouldn't really be called IL2 Sturmovik if it went past the Korean war because the IL2 (plane) went out of survice afterwards.

The name IL2 would be pointless...

I would be great if Gaijin made all versions of IL2 Sturmovik with Pacific and 1946. (Or make updates with new planes/jets and maps and then their second project can be a whole new game entirely.)

But lets keep this thread on subject. Save this for after Birds of Prey.

It wouldn't be IL2, I'm asking in general.

To keep on topic, questions should really be posted in the "if you could ask 3 questions" thread where Anton asked that we keep questions to him so that he might get some answers to us. ;)
