Default New Title Contest

Feather, I think we have the makings of a NEW TITLE CONTEST that we we can amuse ourselves with during the next 12 months while we wait for announcement of a finished product to be released some time after that.

Here's a thought:

"Vaporware turned Hopeware turned BloodSweatandTearsWare turned Flyware - We luv Oleg"

Kinda catchy? OK I know it is not clickable but just click your mouse and see what it does.

You have been here long enough now to realise that when they say 'end of December' they really mean 'July if you're lucky'.

You think your tired. Just imagine how tired the SOW development crew is dealing with hours and pressures of delivering this hugely complex sim.

I would rather them say nothing than tell us that there will be a website in December for them not to deliver. We were told a year ago that there would be regular updates every couple of weeks or so, it is a bit tiresome. Still it should be one fantastic sim with all the years spent working on it.

LOL...I've been here long enough to take everything with a "dose of salt" (or is it "grain of salt"? ...anyway), even projection dates.

He never said there "will be" a website by the end of December. He said "He hoped" there will be. Sh*te happens. Hopefully developments will procede and fall into place for an end of the year release with a comprehensive website and updates atleast by this summer. Unfortunately I think I'm losing my desire too fly combat flight sims. Maybe ROF or SOW will rekindle the excitement. I bought OFF3, it had some good qualities, but left me with little desire to fly it much.

Chivas, it will be a sad time for all if you decide to stop posting on this forum! But Luckly, with the prospect of an end of year release, there's plenty of time for interest (addiction?) to wain and then come back to the surface with a vengance!

All the best!

I know this is off topic, but I am curious, OFF3 - is it bad or just a much of the sameness? The difference between OFF3 and OFF2 is it worth it?
I was considering getting it but it has a hefty price tag for something that is an add-on to a four year old game.

If I remember correctly Oleg said long ago (a couple of years ago at least) that he was looking for name suggestions...but the whole thing kinda when nowhere (lol). It was around the time that he was asking about some artist who was posting stuff here, or at Ubi (about doing box art). Maybe you remember.
