Will people still be playing il2 after SOW is released. Im not so sure, at least not in large numbers, I wound't think. So will all the hard work of TD go by the wayside? By the way TD thank you for all your hard work.

Only time will tell. However, look at how loyal some EAW followers have been. It has endured even while IL-2 has been around.

Also, what percentage of players will have the computer to do SoW real justice? I mean quality settings and busy missions, not just a few planes in the air. It's not fun flying a slide show. I have a lot of players NOW who come into my coops and have problems running IL-2.....and that's a 9 year old game.

And let's not forget that the initial SoW content is very limited. Just a few flyable planes and one big main map, I think. That can get old quickly. Not to mention that players will be missing all their favorite planes in IL-2. We really got spoiled with such a great selection of aircraft.

Personally, I think IL-2 will still be very popular even a few years from now. It's hard to replace a classic...

You mean La's, I185 and Ueberspit pilots?

I hope I don't have to see such FM's ever again.

Yes, most people will continue playing IL2 1946 especially with the T.D. Work being done.
SOW will be too limited of a playing field in the beginning for most people even with the great detail work being done in it.

Yes.

But it is not dead wich can eternal lie. And with strange aeons even death can die... In its house at Rlyeh 4.10 awaits dreaming until the stars will be right (or Oleg give his approval).

Ooooooohhhhhhhhhh!

Yes some true words. But you should mention in ufo category also planes like Fw 190 D-9 (44), 109 G-2 and P-39 D-2.

What i think that Oleg M. should really give free hand for TD. I see that they want to improve these game and take it for more realism level. Probably they have chance to fix also these what before was screw up.

Looking at TD patch 4.10 fixes and promises i see that they really start to improve these old game.

Question is if Oleg M. want it also?

And one more thing im glad that SOW will be at last initialy without russian planes. It have chance to be more historical game then IL2. People have learned a lot with old IL2, planes performacne and characterisic and im sure that they do not give a crap press again.

I find myself wondering why I come here, I think I might be a bit of a masochist.
