As such any release needs to be both technically mature and interesting gameplay-wise (and I am not talking about Spitgirl-solutions here!) - especially so if a MMO service is being planned. Paying a monthly fee for mere gangbanging (which is so pre-dominant online) or a pay-to-win kind of system á la World of Tanks is not going to be the big hit 1C must be hoping for. Whatever is planned - it must be a sound concept in all the relevant areas.
Gameplay will be the deciding factor here and - pardon the frank speech - Maddox Games has totally failed in that area, since Il-2 version 1.0 was released.  |
This is my concern too. Competitors' beta tests show that it is almost impossible to create balanced and interesting missions which offer something more thoughtful than capture-the-flag like scenarios.
WWII Online system where users plan and schedule missions themselves could be a partial solution though.
