time to ask Oleg again

[Flyby]

Hey Oleg,
When are you going to release a new short video of SOW_BOB? Nothing fancy. Just a brief fly-about in a fighter, maybe in and out of clouds. Or low over the water (set to water=6 or something). Or maybe high over Biggin Hill in the Emil (with flak blazing away). Or maybe an in-cockpit scene where the pilot is in a Spit looking over his shoulder as he tries to out turn an Emil (a demo of TIR-6dof from the cockpit)? Nothing fancy. Just a little bit of something for the faithful. You think?

If you take a look at all the updates in order and read Olegs replies to questions it would seem the release date is even further away now than it was when they released 46 with the promo, every time I see an update I get all expectant and prepared to be amazed but ....... no ,just more pics of aircraft in development stages which is nice but not very encouraging , I think that either development isnt as far along as we think or there being very very withholding on the info because of the competition.
Who knows maybe the next one will be a biggie but im not holding my breath.

Looking at the pictures posted recently, it seems to me like they are years away from release. I think it was DuxCorvan who summed it up in a way like "We are shown a lot of nice dresses, but no tits" Maybe there are no tits to show yet?
Looking at Olegs answers also gives me the impression that we are far away from a working beta-version of the game. There are so many answers that indiciates that they have not taken desicion about alot of features yet. Thus, they can't be even close to beta-testing. And that may be the reason for the lack of videos.. simply because a lot of important features are still not clearly defined or implemented yet.
Just my 10 øre.

Meanwhile I'm happy with 1946, FlatSpinMan's campaigns and the new maps keeping me entertained for hours every week. And that is all I have time for anyway!

like we have nothing in the way of Sow_BoB progress to look forward to. At least not in this life. Sad to say, but it appears a bit of cynicism is creeping in here. If that's accurate I can't blame you guys for feeling that way. I know it's hard to sustain enthusiasm when there seems too little in the way of updates. If it's about competition, BoB II is getting on in years, and what other WW II sim is there to be concerned about? 1946? So is Oleg competing with himself? Maybe he's just lost his way after so long? Any of these speculations would be very sad if true.
I believe most of us are looking to participating in the Battle of Britain online through the magic of Oleg's renderings. Were that not so, imho, I for one would have already bought Rowan's Bob II. I still might buy a copy one day, but I favor online play mainly. Hey! Maybe that's the hangup! Oleg can't reconcile how to represent a bomber armada online. opps! more speculation on my part. Thus the need we have for an immediate release of a video showing SOMETHING. ANYTHING. Hear me Oleg! Hear the lamentations of the faithful!
