but there are no WW2 aircraft in production, restoring them to fly is not the same, the Su26 is still a production aircraft.

I am waiting for the patch so I can play well enough to be able to say anything

Why would you be out permanently? I bought Rise of Flight when it came out and each time they release an addon plane that has to be payed for, I look forward. I think that kind of business model keeps you interested in the first place and you don't have to wait years to get new content. Actually, that's a concern I have for this sim, it needs to be uptimised and I'm sure it will but what about new planes in new area's? it can last years before we'll be flying a P51 over germany or shooting Zero's with a P40.

~S~

yep, with IL2 it was kind of modular, FB, PF etc before it was all rolled into one with 1946, I bought the lot

I dont understand this why whining about 1 SINGLE airplane? Did you noticed that there are ALOT airplanes missing like : FW190, P51, P47, LAGG3 and so on and so on ...

but i agree aswell if they go with some kind of PAY for Airplane addon iam definetly out of IL2COD and not only me. I see alot ppl will jump off if they have to pay for more content !

Ilya said on russian forums that SU-26 WILL be available in some special edition of the game.

probably because they didn't participate in the Battle of britain

exactly... FW190 P51 P47 Etc... don't make the BOB. the SU26 neither but it was in the game during devlopement because community of acrobatic flyer ask an acrobatic plane...

and 2 days before release...the SU26 is out of game... we can ask why.

FW190 , P51, P47, etc...was not in the game and not even plan (happilly..... americans was still looking europe fight alone and be eat by german)

ouch...some SPECIAL edition? you mean like a bonus? if i understand well... the other with single edition of game...or COLLECTOR will have to pay for it. or i'm wrong?


mode ironic = on

ho yes! the SU26 will be release in special edition...in fact the final version of game...now we have the beta :) hum...alpha in fact! :D

mode ironic = off

It would be far nicer to see this aircraft in CoD than the Su which is as fitting as a Leopard tank in a Medieval Total War game.

But I guess planes that where involved in the real BoB are no so important to the game as some modern planes, that give so much to CoD?
That plane is as neccesary as that Spitfire marked as "Heartbreaker" :rolleyes:

Probably, somwhere you must have gotten the point that we were referring to future addons.
