Way I see this CloD and sequels, we are on a similiar evolving path like we had on IL-2, generally every development step forward were benefical to previous instalment of the product and completed the overall simulation to be more perfect.

Agree. I believe the game engine will continue to improve step by step, sequel after sequel. But implementing all those improvements takes money so fixing this first step of the series can continue only so long. So I think this latest update is good news for people who are interested in the long series (the new IL2), but maybe bad news for those who are interested in CoD as individual game only.

I'd be more comfortable if they called BoM DLC instead of a sequel and also charged for it as such.

sorry for my question, but BOM is battle of Moskow ? and this will be an add on of Cliff of Dover?

Ciao Ivo, yes BoM is Battle of Moscow. Not an add of but an independent game which can be merged with CoD, as Pacific Fighters with Forgotten Battles was.

I swear that Iwill buy the collector's edition of BoM, the very day it will be available ... I'd love the revised and improved Il2 ....Yippee!

I'll buy it as soon as it comes available, but i've got massively reduced expectations as to what it will actually be like. I'm personally hoping that it won't crash all the time, and that menus will keep working. Everything else will be a bonus.
