No panicking here.. and from where I sit.. some of you guys were modders before this.. so.. .. I think in any case this sim.. this version of IL2 is far from dead.

I'm not panicking, I'm waiting with anticipation.

If CloD is going to die, will that change the "gentleman's agreement" with Oleg and allow inclusion of Battle of Britain content?

If 777 now has rights to the original IL2 franchise, does that mean that Wings of Prey content can be imported into IL2?

Will Ubisoft still be involved in distribution of IL?

If Il2 is no longer a 1c or UbiSoft product, does that void the NG contract?

Funny how much more you can get from a 10 year old sim.

That would be realy interesting, If the restrictions are over, Il2 could be the most absolut complete WW2 Flight sim ever

It still amazes me.. Yes it does look a little dated when compared to CoD, WoP, WT or RoF but it still looks D@MN good and it flies good and in many ways it is still a better product than anything on the market. Actually this sim engine is 12+ years old I think.. Which makes gives me confidence that BoS will not be as dated as some think.

[KG26_Alpha]

Not as old as that.

It was reworked with IL2 FB and again IL2 PF and possibly later versions also, its definately not a 10/12 years old, the tile maybe not the inner workings though !!


IIRC

Yeah but if you make an engine and tweak it twice.. it is still the same engine at it's core.. that's my point. It started out as a space game.

Care to elaborate? While I know originally the Ilyushin was to be the only flyable(thus the limitations that had to be worked around in subsequent upgrades) I wasn't aware the engine had been adapted from a previous title.
