yes it is to much to ask, and if you are born in 1961 you should have enough brainpower and deductive ability to figure out why. presumably if born in 61 you have come accross gaming pc's a few times in the past, and might have watched the production process of some of the better games and know a bit about the process it goes through ? if not, maybe change your nick to newbie61 and we'll start communicating to you on the level of a fuzzie grandpa who has just discovered pc's and is still using the cd tray like a cup holder.

i'll give you a hint: in the finalization process of the game engine they can obtain significant performance improvements while still adding features and eye candy (or have to remove elements, like they did a few months ago by replacing oleg's nice tree's with the less nice speed-tree's we have now in the current build they are working with).

all this is a fine balancing act in the final months of production. so if right now they give you the exact specs of the machines they are testing on (and luthier said he was running it on a mid level pc to ensure it worked for most of the midrange pc's on the market), and if this doesnt stay the EXACT same by release time, you would just moan more and have another reason to complain.

yes it is enough information to give you a ballpark answer till it goes gold (there is even a thread on this forum dedicated to the stupidity of the question)

and no, there are not 500 different levels for what right now (in dec 2010/jan 2011) might be considered a "high end gaming pc", just check the main high end gaming systems sold by the main manufacturers to get a ballpark idea what the concept means.

but i'll give you another hint on how simple the answer is, take any current high end 64 bit 4 core i7 from intel, add 8 gb of ram or more, and chose one of the top 2 gfx cards from ati or nvidia (either dual gpu on one card, or dual cards with single gpu's). that of course is for driving a single monitor at 1920 x 1200 ( if you want higher resolution or multiple monitors you'll have to add further gfx cards, and bump the cpu)

easy really, aint it ?

but you already knew the answers to this, its just that you'r bored waiting and with tree stinking the place up with his negative crap it puts you in the mood for typing nonsense. you just caught a case of tree'itis, and it aint pretty to watch the effect.

No one should care about system specs. Buy the best system you an afford. Oleg has to meet the requirements of many lower cost sytems. Luthier and Oleg have both said many times they have some "not so fast" computers they are using on the development of SOW.

If you can't afford a new system, you'll still probably do fine with BOB SOW. You might not able to use all the tricked out graphics, but you'll be able to fly and enjoy the BOB SOW. Besides, if you are able to do everything you want with what you have now... stay there until BOB SOW releases. Then if you just gotta have the latest and greatest, bust the cookie jar and update your system.

I've been with Il2 since the start. When I started out... my system was not so hot, but served me well on IL2. Now I have a good system, which is appx 2 years old. I know it will be just fine for SOW.

I don't think some of the afore mentioned malcontents ever do anything with the IL2. All they ever discuss is their whine or rant about something. Never anything about using or improving their install of IL2. In fact, I suspect they are NOT ever running the IL2 at all... they spend all their time here and other forums whining and complaining.

Oleg has always tried to be fair with his users, by letting us use advanced graphics if we had the system capacity.

You may not be able to use a old 64 MB graphics card and a 486 computer. I'd almost be willing to say you can probably still do BOB SOW on such a system. Oleg doesn't pander to the big bucks, gamer elites. Put that in your brainpan and forget about ragging on Oleg for system specs.

The BOB SOW will be released when Oleg is ready, and it's pretty close to ready. Anyone on this forums knows it from reading all the updates and articles we have read from Oleg or Luthier in the past couple months.

I have an intel E6600 processor, 4 gig of ram, 1 nividia GTS 512MB Video card, 750W powersupply, 6 cooling fans in the box. I can do any and everything I want to do with it. I am not anxious about my system when BOB SOW is released. I know I will have a very adequate system.

All the whines about DX11. Oleg has said it, go back and read his postings. In order to implement tesselation and the other tricked out features DX11 supports it would delay BOB SOW considerably. It would require a great deal more work and time than the development team can give now.

The future prospects are good for enhancements of BOB SOW, but getting a release to users soon is the important goal now.

Zap do you have to work at being an azz or does it come naturally??

Honest debate has a certain characteristic...

Respect for the other person's opinion, even when you don't concur.

OldSchool61 - you just personally attacked Zap by saying he is a #$$.

That is a personal attack, not debate, nor does it have any merit as debate.

Name calling and personal attacks are the tools of a poor conversationalist.

Just as profanity is the verbal tool of the ignorant.

It seems our worst dreams come true. As you can read in the link, IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover is announced at an Ubisoft upcoming release list

Translated with Bing...

Maddox games' Long-term project storm of war: Battle of Britain Newsposter repeatedly poses little challenges. Current status information and even a new naming policy Publisher Ubisoft. Who has a current date stack up to now unknown game called IL-2 Sturmovik: cliffs of Dover listed. Nowhere were product pages or more information to find, so we launched a more detailed search.

Our score: Storm of war was once and is now marketed under the IL-2 titles at least in European regions. Chief Designer Oleg Maddox is the new name little enthusiastically and prefers had wished the storm of war title containing "from the makers of the excellent IL 2 series". We thought we agree with him, but first in a new extension to the flight simulation game series, but not the storm of war project.

Ubisoft is 24. March 2011 release date. Realistic? On it we would bet a cent in view of the bumpy history anyway. Oleg itself but confirms that the game is in final beta. Below a video showing current game scenes.

If that's the cover art it looks good, agree with Oleg about the name and like the fact that it's apparently in final beta.

Actually its not a pesonal attack if its the truth. Which you will find most members will agree with just ask Tree. And I was just replying to his personal attack and insult from several posts aboe this. Perhaps you should give mister negative a vaction as all he does is flame and insult people. And for your knowlegde here is the definition of "insult" because it seems some moderators here dont know an insult if it hit them in the face!

insult
vb [ɪnˈsʌlt] (tr)
1. to treat, mention, or speak to rudely; offend; affront
2. Obsolete to assault; attack
n [ˈɪnsʌlt]
1. an offensive or contemptuous remark or action; affront; slight
2. a person or thing producing the effect of an affront some television is an insult to intelligence
3. (Medicine) Med an injury or trauma
add insult to injury to make an unfair or unacceptable situation even worse


This is a Zap quote which could be used in the definition of insult
"yes it is to much to ask, and if you are born in 1961 you should have enough brainpower and deductive ability to figure out why. presumably if born in 61 you have come accross gaming pc's a few times in the past, and might have watched the production process of some of the better games and know a bit about the process it goes through ? if not, maybe change your nick to newbie61 and we'll start communicating to you on the level of a fuzzie grandpa who has just discovered pc's and is still using the cd tray like a cup holder. "

Perhaps we need some moderators with more than a high school education.
