I used to get really excited and would always say that "BoB will be finished when Oleg is done with it".
Now I have not been thinking about it much, and still say that "BoB will be finished when Oleg is done with it".
Oleg will finish this project, but much of the excitement for me is gone.
I will be very happy when it is finished, but I am no longer thinking of it constantly.

Me too. I'm not really sure I'll actually purchase it now. All the wishing and hoping and seeing nowt has gone on much too long. Oleg has missed that window of opportunity for me. I feel exhausted at the thought of having to go through all that emotional and financial cost again that a Maddox Game requires of you.

BOB SOW is already finished months ago.
Haven't you guy's learned anything from IL2?
Oleg and team have been practising their uber dogfighting skills for months now.
So they can blast us from the online-sky when the game is finally released.
Same thing they did with IL2.

Once BOB SOW comes out . ..


And it runs on a system within specs w/out crash to desktops, weird errors, or slowing down everytime a formation of 10 bombers.

And the flight model is almost, almost, like the real thing, passing by that rain squall, and the thunderhead's updrafts buffets your plane . . .

Engine start up is a throwback to that warbird at Osh or Dux.

then the reflection of the waves and shine glowing on the white cliffs, passing by tree tops, and you watch the birds wheel about in your wash . . .

When you send that biplane making a torpedo run on your fish friends below, into the drink with a water geyser splash, and the gentle prism like drops rain across your canopy and streak away . . .

The wait will be a distant thought.

I think you seem a litle too fragile to cope with a game like this..

Come on guys! You all know we are going to buy this game when it comes out! Most of us have been following this game since it was first announced early in 2004!
My first whining for this game was in april 2005.. http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...803#7071082803

It can make anyone loose their patience.. but emotional cost?
That's for pancies...

Jeez, its amazing how so little has changed in the last 4 years and how little we have actually seen of a Sim thats been in development for soooo long. But i have faith and truly believe we will see this Sim within the next 2-3 years.

BOB SOW or whatever it is going to be called runs the risk of losing its fanbase.
People who used to play il2 when they were say 15 years old will be around 25
when BOB is finally realeased.
At that age they have other things to worry about than playing computer games.
A new job,a career,a wife,one or more kids,mortgage,new car,new house.
You know the usual stuff when you get older.
Playing flightsims is usually not considerd acceptable by the wife/girlfriend.
As anyone married knows, all fun is history when you get married. So bye bye BOB.
Any 45 year olds with the kids out of the house and finding more time to play il2...
They will be 55 and older when BOB is released. At that age you have lost the fast response time needed to play the game well. You know trembling hands,
loss of memory etc the usuall things when you get older. Anyways those people will be too busy boring their grandchildren with war stories from whatever war they were in. Nopes no BOB for those people.
