Tank sim?

Still the complexity is enormous for a project like this no matter what, in the end your just gonna get a watered down product.

The best thing is still if each game focuses on it's own niche be that Infantry & Tanks, Sub-sim or Flight sim, which
would ensure engine quality, adaption and development time is spent on the right things.

Based on the same engine but with different ways of developing the same map...Is it difficult to understand? Blackdog and others grasped the concept easily....obviously the tank map will be a small subset of the air map, but detailed to the needed degree!

This is obviously purely hypothetical as far as I know...

I am tiring of this discussion, I have the feeling to talk with a brick wall! Try the "what could be done" instead of "cannot be done" attitude for a change...

Trust me i would try that attitude if what you're asking for wouldn't be one of the biggest long shots ever..

Jesus.. there is jut no reason for it , why can't you see that instead.
Give us a pure inf & tank sim or a pure flight sim instead of something halfwit wannabe project.

Tired of dreamers & oleg engine fanboys..

Its quite simple really. The SOW series won't be doing a combined forces sim for atleast 10 years until most of the major air theaters are done. By that time computers will be 10 years more advanced and will easily handle most combined forces battles.

Well, if that isn't "narrow mindedness" i don't know how to describe it
Just because you can't imagine it there is no reason to do it?
Anyway, its the dreamers which make the world a better place, not the nay-sayers.

Im not a very negative person , just this particular subject keeps popping up and its quite hilarious how people can even remotely believe in it ,
with the current tech/devtime/moneyissues/ it's just not practical, fun, rewarding or possible.

Cut it down and you've something like Arma , a watered down Combined sim on a smaller scale, that's where we are at in possible projects atm.
Maybe it's because I work with hardware, software daily, and spend time with games on a regular basis that i can't help but notice your dreams.

Dreaming is good, have faith.. but sometimes you can also use a realistic smack and get back down to earth.
We will have space travel capabilities one day as well, not tomorrow but right now it remains a dream even if it's physically possible..

What's in development is a game engine, not just a game. The more games based on a given engine, the greater the return. Large portions of the codebase from SoW would be useful for such a sim. Fully-featured aircraft AI wouldn't hurt either.

An early demo vid of SoW featured a Halftrack with very realistic looking suspension running over rough ground. There are also other indications that vehicle modelling has been taken into account from an early stage.

If that's how you see it, posting in this forum must be a bitch for you. LOL
