The old adage "well we won the war" wears very thin these days, from the Allied pilots who use it to cast off any Axis gripes.

I hope its held back until its a completed package and the distribution is intercontinental and not staggered as it has been in the past causing piracy over the 4-6 week difference in distribution.

If a German software house created this sim what would you be thinking if it was called Operation Sealion and the manual was only a bf109 and there's no allied campaign on release, it will be added at a later date ?

Have fun.

Not to worry Alpha. The german campaign will be in the Cliffs of Dover in the initial release or shortly after.

"IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover

The name is for real. Just got that confirmed. I'm going to change the name of the forum."

From goud at SimHQ (hope he dont mind)

P.S. Its now officially "IL2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover" over at SimHQ. May "BoB: Storm of War" rest in peace. (kind of liked "SoW" myselfe)

just a different way to look at it.
Have fun.

This sounded AMAZING to me and has been something I have been dreaming of for years in flight sims.

I hope its real. I really do think there is so much info yet to be released about this sim that will blow our minds.

You're with the wrong flight sim then

Falcon 4 has evolved to the point where you can do just that ...

It's staggering to think that this Sim which has been around since 98 is still going.

Feathered_IV · #**147** 01-14-2011, 12:50 AM

That's true. Long experience has shown us that the publishers date and the developers dates never, ever match.

Robert · #**148** 01-14-2011, 12:52 AM

Gawd.... I hope we DON'T have a leaked beta.

WTF! I rarely go into conspiracy theories but now this pisses me so much that I would like to go. However NO GERMAN campaigns can mean less pilots in Axis side. Even if it would not be so, it is just plain unfair there is no Axis campaign. Fix please, Oleg.

Edit: Fix also please historical and other inaccuracies in the box, if the box was real WIP project. Best redo the box completely. The picture is confusing. There are clouds and white cliffs, but which are what? The box doesn't need to represent chaos of combat flight in that way. Fix please even if it would mean later release day.

And don't nag about my wishes people because I don't care.
