Angry Something about new "CoD" title that is truly abisimal.

It was kind of bugging me, but another post made me do it.

The inclusion of "IL-2 Sturmovik" under the title.

IL-2 Sturmovik is a name of an airplane, and the original game is named after that famous airplane and focused on that part of the that particular airplane was heavily used in. For that, the IL-2 Sturmovik name was ideal.

Now it is being used for this new game.
The Battle of Britain did not have that airplane in it. It had no Russian airplanes flying in that battle, and is 1000's of KM away from Russia!

using the established Brand you say?
Their is a huge difference between
"New Title, XYZ" and
"New Title, from the makers of XYZ" (this is ideal)


Not unlike Intel recycling its "Pentium" name, even though by the time Pentium 4 came out it was completely different then the original Pentium (and made it sound like Intel was reusing an old CPU and not make a new one).


IL-2 is an excellent game, but BoB:SoW / CoD needs to be absolutely clear it is something far better, and brand new!
