Don't get excited about that.

100+ player servers are possible in IL2.
you don't see many (any?) because no group of clients could cope with the traffic needed, even if the server could.

Just because the game can, it doesn't mean the real world can.

And for online you need to reduce the gfx settings to decrease lag. What works offline does not apply online in most cases.

I guess that's exactly the point changing with SoW.

You don't need to tune it down because of the number of players connected, but because of the number of aircraft rendered/simulated. And in this, the IL2 1946-engine is still limited almost as much as the original IL2.

Microwave broadband gives me ~220kB/s download but only 15kB/s upload -- wonder if it's enough?
