You seem to forget Bliss that what ever Luthier had done with CODs engine over the last year for the sequel and showed to the people in charge in June didn't cut it, hence the end of the sequel.
Since then i expect the negotiations with 777 and 1C have been underway.

Just a last post before heading off for good.
Again, a bloody sad day. I was sitting with the shits thinking about it all. Clod is still the best and they can jam RoF WWI up their backsides. It's crap and was removed from my comp months ago. I'll see what they do with the WWII genre. It's been fun. Catch you all later. It's back to DCS for me. All the best. |

.... thanks for the info but it is a bit confusing.
.... what now, no Battle of Moscow sequel to merge with CloD anymore ? .... completely new sim with every plane and every little instrument to pay for like in ROF ? Is that what you want to say ? Precise information would be appreciated ! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

2) The BOS business model will have some similar aspects with ROF, but it will not be identical. |

Bye IL2 series. I will switch back on old il2 with hsfx and seow campaigns, seeing many of the old pilots are currently back to fly more seow.
ROF engine really has a lot of work to do to match ww2 recommendations. Awiaiting no profit, worse graphics, less details in landscape and flight characteristics. Hopefully you all go to ROF and destroy also their approach with claiming ebery little aspect in fm's. This new com is good in that. Waiting another 2-3 years from now and perhaps we see each other in 2015, but chances are nearly zero, that the passioned guys will come. Let us see! |

1c management only stuck it out with oleg's delays because of olegs reputation and long track record of success. they didnt fund it because they liked it, they didnt fund it because they thought it was good, they funded it because its high reputation in the sim community gave them kudos and improved the reputation of their company as a whole once they realized 7 years to late that they should have watched over it more closely, they had the next manger (luthier) on a very short leech and him having to constantly justify every decision he made, with them breathing down his neck to start getting it to make money for them and recoup some of their losses to 1c management 777 is like a wet dream, imagine selling people a game and every month you resell them some bit of trivia addon, perpetually milking the customers further. but here is the catch, its a parasitic sales model that is not sustainable. do you really think that the same people who just spent 500$ on RoF in the last 2 years are ready to do it again for the next game they come up with, i think not.

Yes COD didn't make any money because it wasn't any good, the sequel would of gone the same way.
Zap, its sad that COD didn't make it, we all wished it was the sim we all wanted but it isn't. Its gone, dead. Get used to it, your acting like a fish on the beach, flipping and flopping in its death throes, and its not pretty to watch.

If they next sim by 777 and 1C is rubbish, by all means cut it to ribbons, post away criticizing it.
I dont have a problem with that, if it deserves it. Lets wait and see what they do first eh?
