Very interesting. Also noticed you mentioned a WW1 sim, would this be KOTS or is it another project altogether and if so, how many years down the line would that be?

Lastly Theatre of war used the IL2 engine to great effect, are their plans for a theatre of war using the SOW engine (is it capable) and the big question.
WW2-Online was an attempt to make the perfect complete simulation for WW2. Would the SOW engine be able to do what WW2 Online failed at?

That's what I thought, too, but I didn't want to spread even more speculations or draw Oleg into conflict with the marketing guys

At least it would be an extremely good explanation why KotS posted about something very big happening a few month ago and the silence thereafter.

A few years ahead and we make our own virtual airshow, with old crates and jets on the same server - okay, pure speculation, but that would really mean to enter a new era not only for flightsims.

Guys Oleg stated long ago that if he had publisher support SOW could be turned in (read new version of SOW) a pay for play combined (air-sea-land) sim. I know I for one would GLADLY^pay 15$-20$ per month for such a sim... And think of all the poeple this would reach...

Well if it has to be a pay to play type of game, for me I would prefer the Guild Wars way to play : MMORPG with no monthly fee, but you pay for every upgrade. It works very well and you have thousands of players online all the time.

This could be a viable option to.
