Default The news about RRG from Oleg

The news that RRG studios are working on a Korea scenario, project Galba, using the SoW engine sounds like a well thought idea since most Americans and non Europeans will find little or no interest in the BoB scenario, so this will give them an incitement to buy the sim. If then 1C will be working history from BoB forward and RRG from Korea backwards they will together be able to cover the whole era in a relative short period of time. I sincerely hope that this is the intention.

Just my 0, 2 €.

I can't wait for BOB, WW11 is where my interest lies. I'm not sure that I would buy a Korea sim, I just have little interest in that era...and I am a American

indeed, interest about a scenario should not be related on where do you come from........

im German, and im not very interested in a BoB scenario - much more in such a Korean one !

but anyway , im in general interested in Aircombat - so i dont complain about any of these two.
and actually the SoW engine itself is what im looking for , it will be most propably a huge improvemnt in combat flight sims

Yes; I think its safe to say that everybody who have found their way to this forum, regardless of nationality, will buy almost anything with the word”flight” in it, either out of interest or for the sole support, but this population is far from big enough to pay back the developing money for this sim, so we need some easily recognizable buzzwords in order to reach the attention and interest of the average game buying Joe to react and reach out for just this sim( game) in the mall.
IMHO “Korea” is such word in the US and so is “Battle of Britain” in Europe. Let’s hope it works that way.

"Battle of Britain" is a pretty big buzzword...even here in the states. I know a lot of people here who play "BoB WoV"

p.s. This is not to say that I'm not "very" interested in the Korea sim...that's why I asked about it...

If Oleg wants to develop for "Americans" he can go XboX.

Lots of interest in Spain over Spanish Civil War. Oleg once poasted at ubi that he would love to make SCW sim. I'm hoping that modding in BoB And Beyond or even (eventually) FB/PF will allow JG-Tuckie's Spanish Civil War team to come back home to OlegWare from TargetWare.

I'm hoping Korea Sim works its way forward, covering late 1940s to early 1960s never done in any out-of-box Made In Ussia or Made In Russia combat flight The Sim.

Screw Xbox, that's for kiddies or those who cant get a real computer. Those games are for a very small niche market involving preteens wanting instant gratis gaming without any involvement, We are only interested in realistic flight sims or combat that only involves adult gamers. Not the sort of crap thats sold to the teen market.

I'd go for a "SCW" sim...Spain is beautiful (a nicely done map of Spain would be wonderful...I wonder what the best region to map would be???)...and their is a good variety of airplanes involved in the "SCW".

Have a look at all the airplanes involved...http://www.zi.ku.dk/personal/drnash/...spain/did.html

I'm British and I'm more interested in a Korea sim more than BoB. While its a nice starting point I want to fly a Seafury from carrier deck and shoot down pesky Migs. Quite looking forward to the Med as well and carrier operations in general.

I'll buy and play both. If it flies and can shoot me down I'm there. 1916 - 1952 It makes no difference when.
