I keep eagerly checking every week, hoping to see some new info on this game. The wait is killing me. With the lack of a website, promotion, etc., I get the feeling that we may not see this game for quite a while.

The only games i'm interested in for 2009 are IL2 and Codemasters Formula 1. Unfortunately both are looking like Qtr 3 or 4 releases.

Although we already have Beta on our hands, I can confirm that Q2 is unlikely. There are few reasons, the main are: Publisher want to make simulatneous release for all platforms (including handhelds), than it is not good idea to release games in June (which was possible), and, it is very likely we'll release Demo version first - which also takes a bit of time. Also, publisher wants some gameplay changes for 'arcade' difficulty mode (basically, make arcade mode more arcade). It won't affect 'realistic' and 'simulation' difficulty levels, so don't panic. Good news - we will be able to spend additional month or so on polishing the game. Of course, I still can't name you the exact Street Date - cause I am not allowed to. And, once again - it will be released this year

I do agree that only the few people that get on this forum really know about BoP (I've been reading this forum but never posted anything).
IMO you guys really need to make another trailor and widely advertise it to get players' attention away from HoE and Battle Stations and towards you guys and IL2. Also, I really doubt making IL2 for DS and PSP is worth delaying the game by another quarter. Its only going to make players suffer (watching the trailor for the first time and realizing you have to wait a year or so to play it). All in all, I love what you guys are doing but the wait is killing us. I have told everyone I know about this game(so far that is the only way its truely getting around) we are excited and cant wait to play.

Unfortunate June won't happen--earlier even better. I hope this doesn't get put off to the annual onslaught of games that come in the Fall. A lot of good games get completely overlooked due to the sheer volume of releases that dilute all of their sales. People simply can't afford to buy all games that look good all at one time like that. It's too bad more games don't come out throughout the year so they can all get the attention they deserve. You could have a great game, but release it amongst all of the others and the sales won't really reflect how successful the game *could* have been if it had come out at a time when it could get more attention. I'd say that's especially true for a game that's different than other console offerings, that will require many gamers to consider playing something new to them. Not everyone has played the PC game, you need attention and people that want a new game. Wait until that usual Sept-Nov stretch, and that's not good. This game is the biggest release of the year for me, I want it to succeed so we get more in the future.

Hey,
I totally agree with you two guys above! Holding back the game for a simultaneous release on handhelds would be crazy.  Releasing anywhere close to the busy season would also be crazy. So many games did poorly last year just because of the time they were released and what they we competing with. Mirrors Edge is an excellent example. This game needs some breathing space from the crazy period. Based on what we've seen (i know it's not much) i think it will be receiving excellent reviews. The developers have done their job, but i can't help but feel that the publishers are making some questionable decisions. No disrespect intended - i just want to see this game do well.

I reserved this game as soon as it hit the book at Gamestop. I believe in the Gamestop book it says 6/27/09. (Give or take a day) I guess this goat will be waiting a bit longer. This also is my most anticipated release of 09. That's okay though. Take all the time you need to make this game as great as I imagine it will be.
