Errr, yes we want it released when it is done. It isn't yet, so we don't know when it will be. I'd like it to be sooner, as Oleg indicated he intended, but I'm not sure even he knows yet. There is little point in reaching a consensus on something we don't know.

Anyway IL-2 has a bit of life in it yet. What's the hurry.

I cant see it being done this year, not from what weve seen so far, I know Oleg says it 'needs' to be finished, however we all know Oleg is a wonderous marvel at creating flight sims but his release predictions generally suck. No offence of course.

Is BoB being purposely held back in order to milk every last possible cent out of IL-2?

Frankly, I doubt this very much. At the prices IL-2 is now being sold at, any profit must be minimal. If SoW:BoB was finished, 'holding back' rather than looking for a return on investment would be economic nonsense. If anything, the continued efforts put into patching IL-2 may be seen as a good way to retain customer interest until BoB comes out (though with TD providing their work for free, 1C:Maddox's costs must be almost negligable).

Also, I'd think that 'holding back' would benefit RoF, the LOMAC series etc too...

SOW is not finished, nothing to do with anything else.

It's just not finished.

All the requests for strange aircraft is slowing it down...





Skin requests don't help speed things up either

Not this year. Don't really care anymore in all honesty. Too disinterested to explain.

For me, I really don't care about the date when BoB/SoW may release, because Daidalos Team has been doing their interesting and free IL2 updates for me(I also believe it has far-reaching implications for the future/release of BoB/SoW),
and I can come back to this forum anytime if I want to get some new informaion on the coming BoB. Seeing the new screenshots and videos, reading the news and comments, it gives me a feel like that the BoB/SoW is growing up with me. I would cite, "Enjoy the whole process far more than the proceeds."
The most important thing I think is that, dear BOSS and all his staff can live well, working in their best form and have a good mood everyday.
Take care of yourself, all the team.

Merits of Daidalos team are out of question. I think the problem for me in IL-2 is graphics. Awesome simulator that kept me in front of the screen for years, now i take into account that for a while, until SOW is released, image quality brought me to look for something else.

To be precise: i'm not eye candy fan. Btw graphic importance can't be put aside all the times. In particular considering IL2 wasn't choosen at his release for graphic innovations as well...
