i think you might have missed the announcement, go read it and inform yourself.

BoS is essentially a spruced up RoF with a few ww2 aircraft and some new ground textures. they dont have the il2sturmovik flight model code, and most of the other aspects of what make a flightsim will be significantly inferior. its essentially the RoF ww2 sim the RoF group were already were working on, but its now funded by 1C and allowed to use the sturmovik name in return for a slice of the profits.

as was put earlier

just be aware that with your complete misreading of what this ww2-RoF game is going to be like, you've just started to pretend RoF's BoS is going to be some great high tech marvel, with flightmodels better then il2 and CoD, with better and more detailed plane models, better modeling of aircraft components and subsystems with more complex damage models, better more detailed scenery, more objects on the ground and in the air, servers with more players online then the 90 now possible with CoD (yes you even missed the netcode was fixed lol), more detailed damage models for aircraft inside and external, better more realistic weather systems, better modeling of real time ww2 radar systems, better highly detailed low level scenery with moving grass/crops, extended clear visibility to the horizon,...... and..... and.......hang on, you dont REALLY believe that do you ?

and that about sums it up

tree and his little chums are cheering and squeaking in delight, and they dont even understand what giant step backwards this whole BoS will be, because from the start it is designed to be something very very different compared to the next gen SoW sturmovik series

i dont think bom will be a Great Succes, the only thing that can move you to buy it , its because ROF is a succes, and there are no more modern ww2 sims whit russian theatre out there...

I'll make it simple for you, then: If you don't like it, don't buy it. It is really that simple. And when it does come around, I'll take a look at it and then decide if I like it or not.

And you do seem extremely adamant in that BoS, a product you haven't seen, haven't played and haven't experienced, will be a giant step backwards. I find your attitude to be strange and so ass-backwards that I have a very hard time seeing the logic of it all.

Zap, can you post a link where ive gloated over the death of COD, or squealed even a tiny bit of delight.

Im happy that the next sim will be made by 777 and 1C yes, but ive no made any post gloating the death of COD.

The thing is this Zappy, you claim that I didn't support CLOD, well I did, I paid the full retail price for it when it was released. You however have openly admitted here on these forums that you waited for CLOD to be in the 'crap rack' before you purchased it. Enough said.


Good to see the moderators are on top of the personal attacks, great work boys.

Gents, why continue to argue?

Cliffs of Dover is now abandonware.

It doesnt' matter anymore.

Abandonware, you mean like old software everyones .. umm abandoned? In 12 months time, CLOD will probably still be the best WW2 sim, and the best BOB sim for many years to come.

I wish they'd abandon it in my direction ..

Hold on here, I'm no fan boy of the RoF enigne, so don't pin that nonsense on me.

All I'm saying is that the developer has abandoned this title. Hence the term abandonware. NO more support, NO more updates, No more anything from 1C for it.

I'll still fly it, but, over time it will end up on the heap of forgotten games, with maybe a dozen or so folks still playing it.

And don't expect this forum to stay up forever either. 1C has placed their eggs in another basket. Continuing to support this "communtiy" will be counterproductive to their goal of making the new sim a success.

Not saying I like it, just facing reality.
