It is in quick mission builder one of the features as well as online feature. For Example in Il-2 online I was flying on a "captured" Bf109G or K with red stars. Users at exhibition simply tried all accessible options. In campaign mode you can't change the markings. Where is a problem? |

I sure hope that one day I can fly the Avro Anson 1. It was one of the very first model aircraft I built by myself as a very young boy. I still have it somewhere. It's well over 40 years old now.
I can't explain why I like it, but I do. I guess it's the same reason I like the Lockheed Hudson/Ventura series aircraft. Lesser known planes that still did a good job. The new sim is looking wonderful Oleg. I look forward to another 9 years of enjoyment from your work. Thanks.

I hope the publisher wakes up to the fact that "IL-2: Battle of Britain" makes no sense to the average game consumer and is just confusing for anyone familiar with IL2.
Storm of War is a perfect name for the new series, one that will be more than 'just' a flight sim. The new sim is guaranteed mass game-press and viral coverage from the ground-breaking quality it will bring. No need to try to piggy-back off IL-2's success other than "From the creators of...". Good luck bringing them around to your (sensible) way of thinking Oleg. |

Also, in Russia 'IL2' probably means something to most people (just as 'Spitfire' means a lot in Britain), but for the average consumer in 'the West' 'IL2' means nothing. Just call it 'FLY' ![]()

I agree, a lot of people will be saying, "so when's IL-3 going to be released?" and "Is IL-1 any good?" (People have asked me that very question).

I was thinking along these lines before finding your statement, Oleg. Not for your ego but just the facts: the name Oleg Maddox is now like a guarantee of quality and desire for perfection in a flight sim. For a good many of us, even the name IL-2 does not bring to mind an airplane. When someone says "IL-2" I think of the flight sim series. Hope this make sense.

You're lucky to have a name which suits the English speaking mind and tongue in terms of readability and pronunciation, but "Oleg Maddox Combat Simulations", although conveying well the generic military message, is too much of a mouthful and "OMCS" doesn't read/isn't spoken easily as an acronym. "Storm of War" represents well a generic and timeless military aspect, and with just three syllables is easy to say without needing to turn it into a spoken acronym ("Sow", not good). A catchy name is really important. "Storm of War" hits the nail on the head. Flying Nutcase |
