The hackers have opened up the game and "the genie is out of the bottle". Any argument that their may have been about weather or not the hack would ruin the on-line gaming community is over and the hackers have won...Its their world and the rest of us just have to "suck it up" and fly in it.
But thats not the end is it?... now Oleg has to "give the community something big" or the modding community won't see the point in buying "BoB SoW"? (part of me wonders if anyone could possibly be that dumb  )
I guess that I'm just getting old because I don't understand anymore...I guess the "modders" are the hip young rule breakers who give the people what they really want (and get all the chicks), while Oleg is working away on the next great game, and is slowly loosing touch with the gamers and his place in the community?

I said that it might lead to people not buying SoW right away. They already got a Spitfire I, early Emils and Hurricanes are in the works, plus three different BoB maps. That will keep people entertained.
Yet, if the initial sales of SoW will suffer from that and lead in turn to a rapid drop in price, I'm sure they'll easily sell quite a few copys, but that will only harm the reputation of the game and the loss of income could be crucial for the continuation of the series.
Don't forget, SoW:BoB will cost you at least 40€ + upgrading your system + nerves due to new bugs and fixes caused by the screaming community.
So, why not stay save and sound with a beautiful looking BoBish IL2?
