Users at exhibition simply tried all accessible options.
In campaign mode you can't change the markings.
Where is a problem?

oh no, no problem, i commented as i thought it a nice touch to have the tail bars as part of the marking layer, gives it the fully marked up "captured" look

you've built up the reputation to allow you to trade on your name i'd say. il2, 10 years on, is the gold standard for combat flight sims. anyone else made a game that is still, 10 years on, held up as an example of how things should be done?

For example, as has been mentioned before...
"The creators of Il-2 Sturmovik present.... __________"
For me this is the best solution. People familiar with Il-2 will see the title, and then see that the game is not the same as Il-2 but a new-game  |
best option tbh. it may sound daft to forum regulars, but there will be people who have played il2 and have no idea that BoB is an upcoming release. but when they see it on the box...
