Wow great update!This opens up all sorts of possibilties for flight sims!Imagine someone like VRS Porting their F-18 superbug into SOW with a new modern map only with full weapons!and another developer porting in a SU-27! bam!!

Only an example(and my mind getting carried away!) but judging by that interview it's very possible to do it if someone were so inclined.

Hell they could do the same with falcon4!

Yep good times for simmer ahead :)

Of course for all of us Final Conflict affectionados. This time 'we' stop the Battle of Britain from happening as opposed to trying to stop Pearl Harbour. LOL

Ha! I loved that movie!I was always disapointed that they had to return to the carrier before the had a chance to wipe out the attack force,would of made for a sweet scene.
Mmmm i wonder if that movie's down the the video store :P

Yep I think that we will see alot of varity. Not sure that I agree that Oleg would approve of a F-18, but you never know:-P
anyway it should be a very interesting and challenging next decade with the SOW engine. The possibilities are endless,and exciting to think and dream of.

Thank you Luthier. It is always nice to hear what Oleg has to say. Great stuff in there.

I dont know,sounds like he's quiet open to the idea. :)



Q: And now Oleg, please go into more details on your thoughts of the future of Storm of War compared to Il-2, given the potential you’ve built into the engine from the start.

A: Considering what I’ve said already, and given an initial commercial success of BoB, here’s what I see:

1. Some number of developers internationally that worked with MSFS, and probably a large part of them too, will convert to our side. This is especially to be expected considering the recent closing of Aces studio. So these add-on developers might just start making add-ons for Storm of War. I think this might even include jets, including modern ones.



Looks like it's on the cards if developers want to step up to the challange.That certainly doesnt guarantee it'll happen I know but it's pretty exciting to know that it's possible.

SOW if most definitely gunna rock in a very massive way! :)

I stand corrected:grin:...lets hope for really diverse future

Wow, wouldn't that just be a huge slap in the face to MS. Some of their FS devs go over to what was in a way their competition and work with them. I find that kinf of humourous. Talk about getting the last laugh.

I know several people who are into flight sims but never tried il2 because they were into commercial flight, I hope that the FSX addon crowd starts making commercial stuff on the SoW engine, then we'll have the best of both worlds.

Yessss,
lets start with a fleet of dc3´s and ju52´s pressed into war service carrying cargo and troops. :-D
