1C and Ubisoft Announce IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover

Awesome but I hope it won't use Ubisoft's annoying DRM. I don't want to be on the internet everytime while playing the game. I know it is early to speak but can you give us an official response for it will use Ubisoft DRM or not? Thanks.

Nothing new... Only that we now know for a fact that there will be no German or Italian campaign, German trainer or German collector's box edition.

Somehow I do believe that that is a stupid decision. The guy in the store won't know that there is eventually a German campaign when it is not written on the box. Let alone that I am sure that you would sell more if you offered a German collector's box. A good number of people are drawn to the "evil" side of WWII. Oh well... It is Ubisoft through and through...

So the rumors were true - no Luftwaffe campaign eh?

Still, I can't wait!

EDIT: Since creating a Luftwaffe campaign would most definitely involve creating a bomber campaign as well (most likely a formation training missions too), I would rather have a solid RAF campaign alone than rushed & unfinished game. If this was the decision Oleg, made I think it is a good one. Much better to include a proper campaign later on via patch or possibly add-on.

If on the other hand we get to pay for LW campaign - this presents a slightly different approach than the RoF, but on the other hand a very similar one.

Quite frankly that sounds very strange, not to say it sounds like fried BS but it's close. Not only that a german campaign branch is missing (for the time being?) but that "renegade pilots" thingy sounds a lot more gamey than I'm comfortable with. But then I'm a stickler for historical accuracy ...

Yes you could almost think they wish for customers only from the English speaking countries.....and that everyone is keen on flying a dweebfire.
We will see what happens.

Eh?
"take advantage of the AI flaws"


What's that supposed to mean?
