Well if this is how they plan on marketing the game if they go for a fall release then all I can say is good luck. There are going to be big name game after big name game that BoP could get lost in the mix with. There is a reason I am most concerned with the publicity of this game. Like somebody else mentioned, Flight Sims are very niche games right now. I want to be able to go online 6 months after the games release and not have a problem finding others to play with. As of right now this is the most active message board about this game...all 10 of us. If you go to the ign or gamespot boards they are completely dead. And its really sad because this game looks like it has the potential to break the mold for console flight games and breath new life to the flight sim genre....but its not being given the proper chance. All it would take is a good marketing campaign to push a game like this to the front of average gamers minds.

We also have our little community in the first french site of videogames and we expect this game with as much impatience. We shouldn't collect more than ten people, but at least the forum Il-2 BoP is not dead ( http://www.jeuxvideo.com/forums/0-16684-0-1-0-1-0-0.htm ). I hope we will not wait E3 for they open us the site.

Never ever trust IGN or any other sites release date info, the release date for many games gets posted, then tons of people get exited, then the date changes and the date changes and the date....well you get the idea. They are guessing as much as we are. Heck, the release date for SoW:BoB has been changed more times than I can count.
