SoW at E3?

[addman]

I guess most people with somewhat of an interest in video/computer games has noticed that E3 is kicking off today. Will there be any 1c Games representation there maybe?

Yeah addman, I was thinking the same thing all day...

I guess we will soon know...

I would imagine Oleg will be planning something big for E3 its a perfect oppertunity for him to show off SOW before release in 3 months time.

I wouldn't bet any money on a showing of SoW at the E3.

[zauii]

He already said it won't be there as i recall.
Besides E3 is more of a casual event.

I doubt very much that SOW will be at E3, especially if the terrain isn't looking up to snuff just yet. There will be plenty of time for advertising when the sim is almost complete.

E3 is in Los Angeles,CA

You can check out the exhibitors at the E3 site. It starts tomorrow.

If you know who will distribute BOB SOW in the US you might cross reference.

Otherwise, don't think BOB SOW will be represented there.

Hmmm...
I´m not too excited about three month release date.
I´m feeling like six month release date it´s probably more real because Oleg has not announced a solid beta yet or the start of the beta testing.
Of course , it´s just a feeling,I want to be wrong,really...

Oleg is not showing SoW on E3?Why?
It´s a good way to make his superb work know by a larger number of people outside Europe.

The BOB SOW is an aircombat flight simulator. It is not as gamey as a game. The market for BOB SOW is very specialized.

I was talking with a friend who is a big time gamer type. He said, "It is an exceptional game that holds interest for users more than something like 8 days."

Pretty much doesn't include an IL2 user does it?

I wouldn't expect BOB SOW to be much of an excitement for the typical gamer types that attend E3. E3 is in Los Angeles this year so I'd think it would be expensive to send someone over from Moscow to demonstrate it. It would hard to demonstrate otherwise, because no one outside Moscow has a copy of it as far as I know.

Years ago, when Forgotten Battles released the guys at gamestop didn't know what it was, and EA clerks only found it because it was in their computer. Not because they had any knowledge of it. That may have all changed now, but I doubt it.
