all the confusion isnt helped by the wording used at 1C's own youtube website

IL-2 STURMOVIK™: Cliffs of Dover is the latest instalment in the acclaimed IL-2 Sturmovik™ series from award-winning developer 1C: Maddox Games.

http://www.youtube.com/user/1CComp

it very much portrays it as just another product in the same series, but that wording is probably temporary and just put up by one of their own people in the short term

for the official ubi website ( http://il2sturmovik.ubi.com/cliffs-o...ming-soon.aspx) and the product boxes and online download ordering (steam etc) they should add a "version 2" to the title at least (or a similar naming that differentiates it clearly from the 1e series)

I'm sure they'll have a hard time selling it.

Sales of 1946 at £5 per unit don't matter to anyone any more, it's a very nice price for buyers, but the profits on it will be marginal to none.

True IL2-1946 is found here at the large shops on those bargain tables, I think they are just trying to sell of what they have left over on stock

Really?
You just go in the store, take a look at a box, put $80 on the counter and leave?
Without googling for reviews?

We saw the announcement of the outcome CoD from 1c and ubi.com. But. Is Oleg actually confirm the release date ? I dont think soo. His statement will be the most credible.

did you actually read Oleg's post on last weeks friday update:confused:

" would like to say, that known date of release doesn't means that we has been stopped the work that to silver the product."

is that credible enough for you?

They obviously have their heads up their collective behinds... Marketing thjis is another "upgrade" to IL2 is stupid. Period. Marketing this as a new product from the same designers who made IL2 is they way this all should have gone down.. why the pencil pushers at UBI can't see this is beyond me. I guarantee you there will be people who will say... why bother .. I'll just get IL2... more planes... wider theater... Had they marketed this as a new product from the brilliant minds that brought you IL2 sales would be much better.. but they probably didn't want to cut into any sales of IL2 either..

I think UBI will need you to work at Best Buy again to help sell and market their game IN STORE. It's that personal touch that UBI is looking for. ;)
