IL-2 Sturmovik 1946...will anyone keep playing

[nearmiss]

IL2 with TD is the absolute best air combat simulator available in the genre.

There is nothing to compare at this time or I can forsee.

The new release(SOW?COD?)will take several years to catch up on war theatres.

Since there will be allowances in the code for map builders, and some other 3rd party work it will be faster to have new war theatres than IL2 for sure.

It will probably be quite awhile before carrier ops are included. That will of course be a requirement for any PTO or Korea.

The 8 vs 16 poly is a factor in graphics, but alot can still be done with IL2.

IL2 will be on my HDD for several more years I perceive.

Well until a better PTO version comes along I will still run IL2, as I doubt the PTO is anywhere near to being made with in the next three to four years.

I will instantly delete it. Together with Hyperlobby it's two more programs less on the HDD and the registry.

I'll keep it on my drive for a while, but I have a feeling that the new sim is going to make '46 look and feel pretty dated. If this is so I can't see myself spending much time at all with the old sim.

il2 was the best combat flight sim ever... though I haven't run it since I reaslied something was not right, this was ten months before the revelation the sim had been hacked.

I'll run SoW/ CoD without hesitation and hope a PTO add on is created in the future.
