You know the usual stuff when you get older.
Playing flightsims is usually not considerd acceptable by the wife/girlfriend.
As anyone married knows, all fun is history when you get married. So bye bye BOB.
Any 45 year olds with the kids out of the house and finding more time to play il2...
They will be 55 and older when BOB is released. At that age you have lost the fast response time needed to play the game well. You know trembling hands,
loss of memory etc the usuall things when you get older. Anyways those people will be too busy boring their grandchildren with war stories from whatever war they were in. Nopes no BOB for those people.


Speak for yourself you young whippersnapper. I started playing IL2 when I was 36. Now I'm more financially stable, 2 of my 3 kids are out of the house, my wife has already been trained on how to deal with me flying a few nights a week and the wisdom that's come with the added years is more than adequate to deal with those youngsters that have quicker reflexes but lack the patience to set up a proper bounce.

Yeah, I'm good for a few more years. So, if it takes that long to get this next sim on the shelves, I'll survive.
