For English language speakers it's a little unfortunate that their new Community Liaison's name shortens down to BS.

I wouldn't worry too much if no new BoB planes will be built by Ilya's team. According to the old pre-release updates Il-2 is supposed to be pretty open to 3rd party modeling of planes, vehicles, maps, etc. They just haven't released the SDK and other tools because they're still working on fixing the code for the game.
PS- The guys working on BoM are mostly 3D graphics artists and not programmers, so no resources are being diverted from CoD at the moment. We'll get our Wellingtons someday from a 3rd part developer. |

Guys the BoB is nearly done on the graphics part. They can afford to switch part of their team on a new project.
My own guess is that the coders and FM guys will hve a wild ride until the 1st january. Let's hve an humble tough for them EDIT : Luno13 beat me on the line |

You have to be quite optimistic to say this...this may be true for the planes, but the map has to be completed/revamped to even remotely resemble to something OK!
I understand that 1C may not have the resources to do it, as I think that even staging the work/rework over time (ie coast line and airfields, then harbors, then large towns, then smaller towns then railways, and i just consider the french side here) there is at least one year of work for a small but dedicated team. This would depend on 1C agreement, and also on some core software improvements, like the ability to create woods as full objects (not a gathering of trees), to have 3D rivers, to be able to modify textures at least locally (airfields, railways)... I believe much of these improvements are in the tubes, if not already existing, they are just not activated yet. There is also a distinct possibility that the next episode(s) will bring its(their) own set(s) of improvements which will be then be retrofittable to BoB. Discussion with the Dev Team about this subject is difficult now because they are otherwise busy, but I have good hopes the time for a more relaxed stance will come, and then we will be able to set plans in motion. JV PS I wonder if there would be an interest in providing the community with photos of the different approaches to the various BoB airfields...from the air...the real airfields, as they stand now (=not terribly changed since 1940)...(french side only, sorry)? |

Remember that 3D modellers build 3D things.. once they are done they don't just sit there..they are getting paid. So they build future things..some will never get in the game, but they build it so when the time comes that work has already been done..

We will eventually have plenty of planes for the BOB theater. All planes build for other theaters will be usable in the BOB theater. Any planes built for let say the North African campaign that are applicable to BOB can be used, even if they are not applicable. Also third parties aircraft will also be available at some point.

Originally the Battle for Moscow was going to be a third party addon. This may have changed, but I doubt very much they will be applying to many resources to the Battle for Moscow. That said much of the work being done will apply to both theaters so I wouldn't worry to much that this will any way delay the full completion of BOB.
