Considering that Oleg does not only want the hardcore simmers (who know the IL-2 series anyway) to buy his game, but also the newcomers and maybe also the arcade freaks who only buy games that sound cool for them, I doubt that IL-2 makes them think of a great WWII simulator.


So the publishers want to...

- confuse the people waiting for "Storm of War"?
- keep people from buying it because they think it isn't the new game?
- keep the people from buying because they don't know of the name change and still wait for "Storm of War" release?
- keep the people, who normally play other genres, from buying because the name sounds odd and old/outdated?

Do these publishers want to ruin you, Oleg? They can't be serious.
