Question OK, I found something that is really worrying me

In the official announcement, it said:

IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover is the latest instalment in the acclaimed IL-2 Sturmovik series from award-winning developer 1C: Maddox Games.
Quote:
in·stall·ment 1 also in·stal·ment (n-stôlmnt)
n.
1. One of a number of successive payments in settlement of a debt.
2.
a. A portion of something, such as a publication, issued at intervals.
b. A chapter or part of a literary work presented serially.

Without a doubt it says it is a "portion" of the old IL-2 Sturmovik game, which means some code of the original IL-2 is in CoD.

Is CoD yet another upgrade to IL-2, or (as I believed) a 110% brand new sim/game?


PS: the fact UBI is involved is making me worried, wanting to get the facts straight.

Wow it doesn't take a lot to worry you..

How the hell you can get from 'next installment' (a commonly used phrase)
to the code being the same? It's absolutley stupid. I can't believe you're quoting dictionary definitions to justify your negativity towards this game.

Pathetic

latest instalment = next generation

There are other parts that should have been translated better, as others already noted.

Advice: go out, have a beer, celebrate the release date and stop worrying.

Was my post that obtuse?
My rant is on the title and the press release, and the simple fact is by using the word "installment" they are saying CoD is a direct relation to IL-2.

It is like saying Battlestar Galactica (2004) is the next "installment" of Battlestar Galactica (1979).

Devil in the details
