Yes it says consoles only, however it is still 1C and there are a lot of similarities between it and the previous BoB stuff we have seen, not the least of which is the map area and time.

I guess is done with the IL2 engine, not BOB

Almost sounds like they are trying out some new features in console games before implementing it into BoB.


Real time damage for ex.


Way to much of a coincident not to be related, me thinks.

Did you watch the video?

That Heinkel picture...looks clearly like a IL2 model (look at the crew)

uh,oh, seems very much like 1C made a deal with a third party developper to bring fresh money into the company...

(I dont believe that we see BoB clouds and landscape there though)

The terrain and the landscapes in the trailer look a lot like BOB:SOW's "early" vids (it's jaw dropping, by the way!)

[KOM.Nausicaa]

gosh, I look at the pics...this seems arcade ok, but I am not so sure anymore about the clouds etc...

IC I think we need an explanation ! WHAT is this ??

[KOM.Nausicaa]

I just looked at the video. I will be damned if this landscape, Messies and Hurries is not coming from BoB....it looks most similar when you look at the vid.

This is the most interesting update in a way about SoWBob since a long time !

My theory: What we see there IS BoB. In a simplified arcade version for console. What we witness here is a deal to sell parts of BoB for console and to bring fresh money for the final developpment of BoB for PC....the REAL BoB.

Very very exciting !

I ask again: 1C guys I think we deserve an explanation about this !

A separate company developing a version of SoW with simplified game mechanics and flight models. Guess we'll have to wait for Oleg's verdict on this.

This must be BoB SOW in the console (arcade) version!

The name IL-2 Sturmovik is misleading it seems, I see only Battle of Britain action!

Pictures look great!
Ooh man finally some more info on BoB SOW.
