Suggesting to devs

[Wireflyer]

Hi to Anton and Devs from Germany !

Just downloaded the German PS3 Demo of BoP and I have to say I am positively surprised.Being a Sim Player for Ages (since LucasArts BOB and SWOTL) I was expecting a disaster like the latest "Secret Weapons over Normandy" on XBOX but you did a great job as far as the demo is concerned. I like the well kept balance of game play and simulation. The Sim Mode will work just fine for most of the player without losing the old Il-2 "Magic".

Nevertheless some issues here :

-It should be possible to configure the gamepad to the user´s choice.The "Freelook mode" is so essential to the game in Sim Mode and they way it is it`s just a pain to use it, especially when accidentally using the rudder controls.

-The translation of the mission briefings and radio chatter is O.K. in general, but why working with stereotypes here? Sounds like also the British/American voices are spoken by a German who thinks he is at some tea party. Would have been nice to have a native speaker there.

-Why no real advertisement in Germany? Even though the game is highly anticipated by the gaming community in Germany, there is not even a release date on the German web page. Not even a possibility to pre-order it on Amazon nor do the stores know about it. The demo say´s September 09 !?!? Interesting.

Otherwise great job and it was worth waiting for the game for such a long time.

Cheers
