Doesn't mean magazines think it is just a redo of the "old game".

Here, the main PC mag clearly knows that it's a complete new game, probably the first of a long serie.
It doesnt matter what the magazines think.. it is what the box says.. and the fact that UBI didnt even give the developer the respect to pick the name of his product is just pitiful.. 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..
