I think you'll rather see something to the effect that you and your wingman are engaged by 109s (from above afcourse) and a 109 gets on your tail and your wingman refuses to shoot him of!

no no no no, you all have it wrong! I have worked out who the traitor is.....

His name is Boulton...Paul Boulton

[ckolonko]

Wow! Thats very Defiant of him!

[I/ZG52_Gaga]

excuse me this maybe off topic, but i never understood this ... and it is not mentioned in this interview ...

when the next title is out ... we will be using HL or something else?

is there a post concerning that matter?

Hi Gaga

Pure assumption

Due to "online content" the publisher is the one usually responsible.

Legally though permission would be needed I would think for HL to allow CoD users "online content" access through the software.

Past experience with IL2 series showed the UBI servers were not up to the job and everyone used the Hyperlobby instead.

There was I would imagine an agreement with Oleg and Jiri, (but not sure about UBI) to allow the Hyperlobby exclusive use as the servers at UBI died off.
Also
There was talk of a online war for CoD with players stats etc recorded in a world wide database as a Pay to Play campaign, this was sometime ago and I'm not sure if this is still a viable offering in SoW.

Besides HyperLobby there used to be others.All Seeing Eye,X-fire,Gamespy Arcade.These all were lobbies of sorts.I think only X-fire survives.

ASE(All Seeing Eye) had better sorting and details about the current maps being used by the server.Also a more accurate player count and location of the server.But there was not a chat.Much harder to set up a coop.

Gamespy Arcade to me was a pain.

X-fire was ok but lacked the 'friendliness" of HyperLobby.

In the early days of IL2,on the multiplayer screen,there used to be a "play at Ubi.com) button.

As mentioned by KG26_Alpha their servers at the time were not up to it.For that matter their website was a loading disaster.They had trouble keeping the website going let alone servers.

I am not sure if Ubisoft wants to tackle that problem again.

I think I saw somewhere(I can not back this up) that the game would have an ingame browser.(Like ROF)

Whether or not COD will work with HyperLobby Jiri will not know until he gets a copy.Some games that have been requested to get rooms on HyperLobby will just not work.

The truth is out there...

Pay to Play is out of the question if you ask me
