I hope so too, but if it is true then I will not buy the game until this is corrected.

Looks like the old game rushed to market unfinished by the publisher routine to me. Hopefully they will release updates if not I might wait for storm of war, damn shame.

If in fact cockpits are missing for the Luftwaffe I can't help but to agree with you. The difference is I hold both developer and publisher responsible if BoP winds up being a steaming pile. Both parties entered an agreement, both parties are responsible. I stopped buying the poor pitiful developer, evil slave driving publisher routine a long time ago.

In addition it makes you wonder what else failed to make the gold master. Flight Models, damage models and load outs verified and attached to correct aircraft? Uber AI maneuvers? The list could go on and on and on.

I enjoyed the original IL-2 Series but since then 1c sends the message they have been resting on their laurels ever since.

After reading all of this replies I am sure Mr Anton is either, relieved because he knows this is not true or swetting like crazy because he knows that sales numbers for sim players are going down the drain...

LOL you must be right.... it's one or the other.
But I am sure Anton is not swetting too much since sim players are, most probably, not their primary target.

And you are right also when saying that all this is pure speculation but what else can we do while waiting for the final release?
At least, that shows all our interest in this game.

Not doubting anyone's ability to read French, I'm doubting the author. We also had a preview from a major outlet here (Team Xbox no less) that made it sound like there were only 8 people in MP, which wasn't true.

"in the eight-player-max multiplayer portion"

Poor wording at BEST, but it still caused an uproar. Sounds pretty definitive, but as well all know, it's not true.

I'm not saying if the no-cockpit thing is true or not true, or if someone can read French or not. I took 3 years of it myself and don't remember a damned thing, so you're better off than I am. I put no stock in even 2-3 of these places reporting the same thing---they've all reported the same misinformation before. Regardless, I'm buying the game.
