IL-2 Sturmovik 1946...will anyone keep playing
 

Opinions?

Plenty, too many aircraft for Cliffs to compete and increased system specs will probably also play a large part in keeping people playing it.

Yes of course

Plenty of people ;)

Yep, I can't run SoW anyways. Honestly it will be great, and it'll probably look fantastic, but all the theaters and features of IL2 interest me more, I feel Il2 still has lots of potential growth. When I upgrade my ..puter in the future Ill get SoW, but there is no rush for me, I'm sure it will be around for the next 10 years...

Staying on my PC for a long while to come me thinks. Il2 is a bit like a owning a custom kit car.....hours of fun just tweaking and downloading goodies let alone all the other aspects. I have invested far too much time to just abandon it! That's something I do to girlfriends.........:grin:

S!

Sure will. Has more content than just BoB. When SoW matures and gets more meat around it's bones, so to say, then gradually IL-2 will fade I think.

Until Cliffs Of Dover progresses threw the wars years, I'll still fly IL-2 off and on.

I think people will play IL2 for a long time to come.
Not least because the scenarios are everywhere but Battle of Britain territory, and people have got to know many other people through the online servers..

I do think that as SoW, CoD or whatever expands over the years, IL2 will gradually diminish at a similar rate.

Many people will still fly IL-2 just like there are people still flying EAW. Most will move on when they experience a new level of immersion in the feeling of flight and air combat.
