In a discussion here about a year ago. Oleg indicated that the title would possibly be changed. Maybe CoD was his idea, and not one that came from ubi.

How long does it have to take before people settle down with/realize that it's part namechange, part marketing. Imagine gamers searching Google for CoD. IMO it's a brilliant idea to catch the casual flight simmers that may not even have heard of this game yet.

The name is fine. If someone is interested in a serious combat flight sim and checks the market place I have no doubt he'll find his way to Cliffs. I would also be surprised if some (tho probably minor) level of marketing research wasn't conducted in deciding on the name.

CoD = Call of Duty?

From the marketing point of view, the name is a good choice.
Nothing more, nothing less. |

Still: "Hey, did you get that awesome new game, COD??" "Which one?" "Huh, the first one?" "What century are you from, it was so last century!" "Whu?? Not that one, dufus, the flying one" "oh" |

If anyone confuses Call of Duty with Cliffs of Dover they, frankly, shouldn't even bother opening the box...

It's not people who don't care about flight sims, but people who are simmers and had to take a long break due to real life and they're confused now, because of the myriad of add-ons, the mods and the similarly titled console release. Do we have to make it even more confusing? There was a perfectly fine solution and that was to add "from the makers of the critically acclaimed IL2 sturmovik series" below the new title, or "the makers of the critically acclaimed IL2 series present" above it. Instead, it's like someone over at Ubi's marketing department thought "let's spend as less time as possible in this meeting so we don't miss the lunch break" and slapped the old series title on it |
