Cheers!

February 2011 was announced mid 2010...

I guess some people will still find ways to explain this as part of some elaborate conspiracy again, but it's pretty much in line with what was said during Igromir, and with the development we've seen so far. So I don't see why it wouldn't be genuine.

Too bad though that Ubisoft is more or less confirmed now. Not really unexpected but I guess I'm not the only one who still hoped for a different publisher. At least it explains the silence and complete absence of any marketing efforts on the western markets

Nothing has been confirmed yet of anything from anyone concerning the publisher, or do you have direct contact with Oleg himself?, I would guess not..

You would guess right. However I see several web shops in different countries starting to show box art with the Ubi logo on the same day, and a swiss gaming site quoting a release list they received from Ubi with the name "Cliffs of Dover" before finding out that it's supposed to be the new name for SoW. The only simple explanation I can think of is that they indeed are the publisher

[yellonet]

Fake!
Is the name Cliffs of Dover an official name? Not that I know. "IL-2" in the title is definite proof that it's fake.
Also, the image itself is obviously not a photo, if those where real boxes it would have been a photo.
I don't buy it. Figuratively speaking of course.

Cliffs of Dover was the name on the official 1C Igromir video.

Damn it... you're right. Hmm... I wonder why they keep the name IL-2 when there's not even going to be such an aircraft in the simulation, at least not to start with.
Sure it's a known product, but why not just stick with "...from the creators of IL-2 Strurmovik"?

Marketing

It wasn't the team's idea but the publisher's

[Stiboo]

Nice find if genuine !

Everything seems to fit...

IL2 : 1946
IL2 : Wings Of Prey
IL2 : Cliffs of Dover

Oleg's first official update of 2011 would be a great time to announce the release date and publisher.

Looking at the release dates of other big games coming this year then a good time for release so as not to clash with other games is either Feb or mid April.

Roll on Friday!
