= SOW ( Bob ) vs other scenarios. << Poll >>

[Igo kyu]

BoB, then others that you don't suggest.

Atlantic Ocean, Convoys to Russia, Malta, Mediterranean carrier command and others.

WW2 was huge, there were battles in many places (and many places with no battles at all).

[GOZR]

Yes IGO but those are or should be included in the titles above some how

[Antoninus]

I didn't play a BOB campaign since European Air War. There're lots of new features not seen before in a WW2 combat flight sim. Korea and now Battle of Moscow are already in development and SOW will open be open for third party add ons.

Thus no, I don't believe I will be bored that quickly before new content will arrive.

[The Kraken]

What we've seen last Friday points to a much deeper experience than any previous WW2 combat sim, so I very much doubt that boredom will be an issue anytime soon. Add the flyable bombers and the Italians, and there's a lot of variety even for the "limited" BoB theatre. The only thing missing is close air support, but that will probably be available with some "what if" user-made missions as well.

It's still unclear if the engine can handle several hundred planes in the sky to recreate historic BoB missions in full scale. But even if that's not the case I still like the choice. Especially if we get the Mediterranean next

[AWL_Spinner]

No way I'm going to get remotely bored with the Battle of Britain, I love the era and the planeset, however this is an interesting poll for "where next".

Pleased that the leading three are "East/North, France/Spain and Med/M.E." - I'd be very, very happy if those happened to be the first three expansions.

Especially Mediterranean/Mid East and France/Spain, '38-'42 my favourite plane sets.

+1

The Med and the battles of 1939/40 almost always get the shaft in any new flight sim. I'd have said the same about the ostfront until Il-2 came out .

BoB is something not common in combat sims,but what will be the finest from SoW will be Pacific and Eastern theatre.France would make the sim differentiated.

Korean war should be part of a different game,maybe.

I wish Oleg have plans for a WWI sim and maybe a Cold War sim...

[philip.ed]

The only chance of potential boredom (from an offline persepctive) is if the campaign doesn't live up to that of BoB2. Of course the campaign isn't necessarily everything, though.
I can't wait for SoW, and to put it bluntly, I know it'll be a blast.

As far as later scenarios, I'd vote for North-Africa (MTO).
BoF I'd love to see, but I can see campaigners working on this battle with SoW when it's released (mostly everything needed for BoF will probably be there with SoW). If small-maps can be made, I can see areas 1:1 in scale with combat-areas in france being made (if these areas aren't already on the map).

France/Spain :3
After I would include East/North

[bhunter2112]

Why pick -with BOB and Oleg we will eventually get them all ! After BOB I hope they add a Med map with the historic plane set. Malta -Italy - crete - North Africa-

Storm Of War - Battle For The Med !
