Oh well all I was hoping was this thread would bring attention to the publishers to bump the release of BOP a week because it is directly competing with HOE for my, and others games $50.

They already have a head start on the competition.


They have released a great demo, and word of mouth has been spreading all over about that.

Yes...I agree. These games are both WW2 flight games, so they are competing for the same money in my opinion. Moving the BoP release date up a week couldn't hurt. I'm a sucker for WW2 games so I'm sure I'll be getting both at some point.

"Heroes of the Pacific" was a pretty good game, although it's too arcadeish style hurt it's replay value, and with not much info about HoE, BoP will be the first priority. I'm sure BoP will be a MUCH better game...

Releasing a demo for this game was a huge boost in the chances IL2 will be a huge success over HoE.

Also, I seem to remember news that production on HoE was cancelled for several months earlier this year. It was only recently announced that it was being planned for release just a few weeks ago. That may tell you something, like that game could potentially be incomplete when it ships. Personally, I expect HoE to be an incomplete, hastilly released and arcadey product being sold as a tag-on to the potential success of IL-2.

I watched a few hoe videos and might must say the game falls flat and is unlikely to please neither graphics hoes, nor WWII flight games hoes. I can't believe how bad it looks in comparison to BOP. Just watch those hoe planes move defying all laws of gravity. Pathetic.

And as for all these debates on moving the release date up... makes no sense to me whatsoever.
