2) Will SoW follow on in IL2's footsteps and make the majority of the game work clientside with the dedicated servers handling only interactions? (I know this is an over simplification but I hope you understand what I mean.)
3)With only seven months to go for a "best case scenario release" one is hoping a close beta is arround the corner. Being an avid SEOW player What I would like to know is would such a dynamic air sea and land co-op campaign be possible off the bat within the SoW engine UI/FMB or is this something that will be left to an approved third party provider?.

1. Online protocol is different to Il-2 code. Dedicaded server is also different. There are new solutions tha I would tell now for all. The limit of players amount is defined only by traffic. We will see how many will be ossible to open (limit) later. But probably 128 will be in intial release (with some limit of trafer data such as skins, that are large, etc).
2. See item 1.
3. Somthing will be possible from the beginning. More - later by third party. We have completely new concept for online gameplay ion the flight sim market.
