What are the differences between SoW-BoB, and Rowan's BoB2, aside from online playability?
I'm sure these questions have been addressed ages ago, but perhaps there is something new to report, or different perspectives now?

The wingtank wasn't used in BOB because of it's alarming tendency to catch fire in flight. Had it been things just might have been a bit different...
A nice option would be for it to be allowed. One can do this in BOBWOV but the wingtank isn't modeled. You just get a higher reserve of fuel to fly the 109 is all..
The difference between BOBWOV and BOBSOW when it comes out? HMMM..
Of course the new game will have better graphics and more aircraft. BOBWOV's "air graphics" and cockpits ain't all that bad. The AI in the shockwave game is very very good and BOBSOW will have to go a "fur piece" to beat it which I somehow doubt they will do given the statements in the past about that about that.
Weather effects will be similar. BOBWOV models them really well but it really takes a big cpu to handle them with a lot of aircraft in the air. I imagine BOBSOW will react in the same way.
Lots of aircraft in the air at one time..I imagine in BOBSOW one will have to turn down the "eye candy" quite a bit to get it flyable on a slightly lower line computer.
These are all "semi-educated guesses" Judging from the statments about BOBSOW I believe they are generally right..
