this is good news cheers anton. maybe the site will have the realese date too.

this is good news cheers anton. maybe the site will have the realese date too.

I sure hope so since Anton said July was possible.

[BadKarmaSutra96]

Hopefully it's before Sept 1 because activision is releasing a WW II fighter plane game also. The graphics are no where near on par with BoP but it would be sure to steal away some of the market share.

What is the name of this game?

[BadKarmaSutra96]

Heroes over Europe

[Desode]

Yeah but HOE is arcade crap. I don't even think it has any Flightstick support.
I personally think that releasing a flight game on console with no flightstick support is complete Crap ! I would'nt but it now matter what it was. If your a dev and you make a flight game and then don't take the time to put in stick support ,,, Well YOU SHOULDN"T BE MAKING FLIGHT GAMES !!

[Desode]

Also rumor has it that RedMile Entertainment is hurting so bad for money that the game is in Limo because they can't come up with the money to publish it.
Desode

[BadKarmaSutra96]

I totally agree with you. I'm very excited about the BoP. It still doesn't detract from the fact that there will be 2 games in the same genre that will be released at close to the same time.

Ooh! That's good news for us :-)

[Desode]

Here is a article on it.


GameSpot report: Red Mile is having some issue with the publishing agreement and a recent statement indicates that the company will need a substantial sum of money for it to complete both Sin City and Heroes Over Europe.

"We anticipate needing an additional USD 10,000,000 to finance our planned operations over the next 24 to 36 months. We will be unable to complete development of Heroes Over Europe and Sin City: The Game (working title), or publish any other additional games if we are unable to receive co-publishing advances on both the foregoing titles or raise additional capital through either sale of securities or issuance of debt," the statement added.

The question is, however, who will take over the Heroes Over Europe title if Red Mile go under, a question Atari refuses to comment on.

Instead of disrespecting a game which you obviously know nothing about, why don't you be thankful it's even being made at all? WW2 flight games are almost non-existent on consoles. Do you want to provide a link proving there's no stick support? I've been in regular contact with Transmission games and I can assure you, the game will be far from 'arcade crap'. You do know who Transmission Games is, right? Tool.

[Douglas Bader]

Great news Anton, finally. And the Eagerly awaiting Award goes to all of us:grin:

Dont put of another game, but i put the two together some time a go and reviewed it for my self and il2 , is the better i think, but its always crap a game has to stop being made

[trk29]

Well I have been trying to follow Heroes over Europe as well. Their forum mods have no Idea where Atari stands on the game.

I just checked their website again like I do every week and and sometime in the past few days they have took the site offline. So the site is either getting a overhaul to change publishers or it's not coming out.

Transmission games and Flash Games has it listed on their websites but information is vague from both of them. All they have is a post from the Heroes of the Pacific forum from a guy stating he is from transmission games and that the game is still coming out.

Incase some of you want to try to follow here is the link to the forums they are in europe.

2 days at the most I belive?

So we should fully expect to see it this weekend.:grin:

[Tomo]

Just my opinion - but i think it would've been a good idea to let us know the website URL a week or so in advance of E3. That way we could've effectively Beta tested it for typos, bad links, etc etc. Obviously the publisher would have tested it, but there's nothing quite like the scrutiny of the biggest fans.

Oh well. No biggie.

[Anton Yudintsev]

That's a tad bit harsh. Anton does well to answer our questions and all we do is moan for more info. Unlike SoW-at least we know the game will come out this year and a website will be released within a week. A week is nothing, and there's a chance it could go up tomorrow. I'm happy we have someone to give us info. Everyone makes mistakes and Anton is only human :rolleyes: ;)

well he should have corrected it alot sooner seeing as he views these boards regular. seems like another prob wid website 2 me

[Anton Yudintsev]

Guys, in any case I am not responsible for a site. Nor for making it, neither for releasing it.
We are making game and provide all required information to a publisher.

And I am sending an email to publisher each week, to get better quote, when they are going to release site or when I'll be able to provide new info to you.
So, if you don't want me to tell you what I get from publisher - I won't. If publisher will decide never release a site - there is nothing I can do. Less than any of you - I can't even make 'fan-site'.

For me, the main issue with a site - that, according to our agreement with publisher, I can't answer all questions you've asked me, before site will be live - because answers are going to be community updates as well.
So, I have written document with Q&A, and waiting for site to be released as well as you all - due to other reasons.


BTW, the game will be available for public in LA E3, on 505 booth - so those, who are attending E3 can fly it (not sure with or without flightstick).
Also, we are providing press-demo for a press on event, and already have finished demo for Live/PSN - but I can't tell you, when it will be available (as always).

[Tomo]

Don't worry Anton - i think everyone here understands that this has nothing to do with you and is now a "publisher" issue.

I just hope 505 know what they are doing and don't ruin all the hard work. Looks like they are going to be ready for release *just* in time for the crazy season where so many great games come out. Worst. Decision. Ever. Just my opinion though :)

[xNikex]

Yep. All lies on the publisher now.

Lets hope its released during summer to avoid getting in the flood of releases in fall which would be a disaster.:(

[Mefna]

Im sorry to break it to you all, but release is in the fall on September 15th. Just look on GameStop and any other website where you can buy games.

[guiltyspark]

Il2BoP has had like 10 release dates since it was announced amd when one game site posts a new date it usually spreads and is posted by everyone else without credibility.

If it was really Sept. 15th, 1C would have it on the IL2BoP page, so it remains Q3.

Well I guess theres only one way to find out.

[trk29]

Sept sounds more plausible that is three months of advertising for the website. Why would they launch a website and then a few weeks later release the game. Makes me think the game is coming later than sooner.

Don't take into account what some people say.
It is a great asset for us to have you with us on this forum (not everyone can have a direct relationship with a developer of a game he admires :) ).
Most of us understand the situation and that in ANY CASE you are responsible for the decision of the publisher.
Some of us see in you a mundane source of information but I am sure the majority don't think so and they see in you a great developer who is helpful :rolleyes: .

[trk29]

Well Said. I agree

He means DEMOnstration. Ie - footage of people playing the game.

A downloadable demo has not be confirmed. If it were my game i wouldn't have a demo. They are usually counterproductive.

I will have to disagree with you, psn/live is what the consumer uses look again at the quote.

and already have finished demo for Live/PSN - but I can't tell you, when it will be available (as always).

[BadKarmaSutra96]

Lack of news is making me twitch like a recovering meth head. I keep looking on N4G.com for anyone to write a little review on this game or any mention about it in the E3. :( I guess I'll keep watching the 6 month old vids and stare at the 36" Spitfire on my desktop. *twitch* *twitch*

Ahhh my bad! Thanks for pointing that out!

Personally i think alot of cheapass people download demo's and just make do with them without buying the full game. Classic example is Battlestations: Midway.

Obviously everyone here will be buying it!! (one day....)

[The_Goalie_94]

One more day. We should have it in 24-36 hours tops. CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I think people are in for a big disappointment. It's just a website - more than likely we will have seen most of the stuff on it already.

The only real thing to look forward to is the game or a demo. Both of those seem to be a long way off!

Atleast it will be something different to look at for a change.

What do you mean by a long way? Sorry I'm confused. Having the game come out this year is not a long way off in terms of gaming. Since it's announce, people have been waiting for over 3 years for SoW. There's a chance we could wait 3 months for BoP so have faith ;) The best fact is that we know the game is definately going to come out. Hopefully coverage at E3 will give us more info ;)

There hasn't been any coverage, there is no videos anywhere. Heck I saw more indiana jones lego coverage. It's not listed on any E3 site.

[The_Goalie_94]

He said it will be published before the end of E3. Which also means, that first they want to release the information on E3 then to the world by the website. I wan tthe website because it will have more info, trailers, screenshots and a less....yellow forum. Plus, one website we can di it all in.

[sasquatch]

and a less....yellow forum.

Well really i'm speaking from a 360 point of view because that's the only console i own. We know that BoP has been finished for the 360 for a number of months and they are delaying it for a "simultaneous" release. Holding it back for the "busy" release period was pure craziness in my opinion.

So yeah i guess you are right - anytime this year is not a long way off really, it just feels like a long way.

I think we have all agreed that was not a good choice by the publisher.:-x I couldn't imagine why they thought handhelds were just as important as the console versions; like the sales would make a difference.:rolleyes: Especially since its 2D... IMO, it doesn't really help BoP's image either...

I can continue my patience for another quarter, but I don't want BoP to fail. I want a sequel...;)

If i had to be honest, i really don't care about a stupid website. I just want to play the game one way or another. Sure the website will give us more info, but what more do you want. Its a kickass flight sim WWII game. Voila.

Question - have we seen anything at all about the handheld versions? Previews etc? Personally, i don't care one bit about the handheld game but we do know that the unintelligent people at 505 are delaying the console release until the handhelds are ready (I can't think of a stupider decision having ever been made? Maybe Hitler invading Russia? Maybe....)

So really, until we see something about the handhelds things are going to be happening any time soon.

Wow, that is a good point.

There has been absolute ZERO shown from either....not even a screenshot.
Its nice being able to get direct info from Gaijin over here, but there are two different developers handling the DS and PSP versions.

Yikes.

To follow up on what you said Tomo, I agree it makes zero sense to me to from a gamer standpoint to launch simultaneously. The next gen console communities could not give a flying youknowwhat about anything happening with the handheld community.

Here's the marketing angle: "Birds of Prey - the critical and cult console hit...coming to handhelds spring 2010"

Wow, i'm bumming myself out right now.

I think you have a point there Tomo. But let's not get to creative overhere. Every possible excuse for whatever delay has been discussed here and leave 505 no other option than to come clean :grin:

Come on guys, the game game isn't coming out for a few months at best. I don't think it's worth it getting this upset over a missed website launch date. It's not going to make one bit of difference to launch whether a website is up now or a month from now.

Let's just be thankful, even grateful that the game has made it this far!

I don't think anyone particularly cares about the website.

What's annoying is the fact that the 360 version has been finished for what almost 6 months now?

I've seen 505's website.

I challenge anyone to go to their UK site, sit on the front page and try and concentrate "this company is in charge of rejuvenating the combat flight sim genre for next-gen consoles" - then try not to barf.

Anyway, yeah the game is done as far as I heard. Its just the manufacturing yada yada and the marketing (?) now.

Gentlemen, it's time to get spiritual. We must entice the Tiki Gods with sacrifices and gifts to get the website online. I'm aiming for this Wednesday. I will sacrifice five pristine bulls for the occasion!

...Okay, I'll drink five Jaeger bombs. It's got Red Bull in it. >.>

There is a trailer on IGN that looks new to me. There is a website address at the end, but it doesn't do anything yet.

Anton what's up man you haven't responded the times you came in. We miss you talking to us.;)

[BadKarmaSutra96]

Like we weren't hungry enough. It's ok, we already are willing to give you money, please stop the suffering ^_^
I wonder If most people will play arcade or simulation.
Arcade I guess, in '1946' it's really annoying for a beginner, after a painful takeoff, a long flight trying to keep the plane straight, a long pursuit of a dark dot in the sky (when it's not a little stain on the screen haha), to finally get killed by someone he hadn't even saw !
I can't wait :p

Ya when I played IL-2 I would take off, fly about 10 minutes then spiral out of control and crash for no reason I could determine. Then I unclicked most of the difficulty settings so I could last more than 10 minutes haha.
