Online community, HyberLobby etc.
Been away for 6 years from il2 and I am wondering if IL2 is still active online.
Installed hyberlobby and there where just around 30 players online. Is Il2 dead online or are there any other servers where to join? I personally like fullreal settings. |

Well its quieter than it was 6 years ago.
And the latest HSFX news is not good as they stopped modding IL2 1946 mainly due to new file structure in last TD patch release. Interest is disappearing either through natural disinterest (age related) or lack of interest due to its genre (WW2 flight sim/game) or no further mod support. |

Couple of us still fly co-ops in the evening. Usually around 6-9 pm US eastern time. Usually not full real but pretty close. Though I am sure we probably could do full real ever once in a while.

The HFXS and it's (lack of) quality would be otherwise irrelevant to this topic, had it not been the modding community that also had a part in dividing and eventually indirectly diminishing Il-2's online audience. Good thing that there are times when servers are populated enough to play.

Is Steam partly to blame also? I saw IL2 Stalingrad advertised on there for it's release. Looks great but I don't care about using Steam for flight sims. They won't let you mod like we normally did.

There was no good reason for hacking IL2. The hacks came from individuals who cared more about what THEY wanted than the good of the sim and community at large, and what you see now on Hyperlobby, nothing, is the end result. |
