Announcement of the game "IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad"

[Skoshi Tiger]

Interesting developer update just released. Some good news and some interesting news.

16) Will be improve support for multi-core processors in the new game engine? My computer has 6 cores, but ROF uses only 2.

No, the implementation of multi-core remains the same. The best would be a 4-core processor.

Maybe we weren't that bad off with the COD engines?

So I guess I wont be rushing off to get a processor upgrade in the near future!


Cheers!

"You'll grow into it" is a phrase that is best used for jumpers that your grandmother buys for you when you are a child, not retail games.

I think it applies completely to retail games, just about every title I ever owned was beyond the full capability of my hardware, demands of the software are what prompt me to upgrade my hardware.

Developement in and demands from software drives the developement of hardware. That's how it's been since the dawn of computers.

That's fine if you don't want to sell any copies. The difference is that I'll warrant most of those were playable on an average system at launch without major problems and loss of stability. Which is the real shame about CloD because on systems that can handle it, it's the best looking flight sim out there. I'll be interested to see how close the new project gets in looks.

I can't see Cliffs of Dover being abandoned in the medium to long term. For now there are other priorities, but CoD has now reached an almost finished state.

After so much work and development, it seems crazy to just drop it.

Will someone else pick up the ball?

The question isn't if someone else will. The question is of 1C will ALLOW someone else to pick up the ball.

Unfortunately, I doubt it, since improving CloD only creates a competitor for BoS, which doesn't make much business sense.
