The model used by IL2, and now the new sim, has worked very well over the years. New aircraft and maps, plus many necessary ground objects/vehicles, all tied up in a cohesive package. Far better than RoF's shotgun approach where new aircraft seemingly appear willy nilly with no historical context.

Well said, I miss the ground war in Rise of Flight, and I dislike it's business model and the fanbase created by it.

Adding new maps and theathers is much more interesting in my opinion.
