Radpig and KG64_Cnopicilin,

I feel too that it is obvious. They are trying to stretch the thing as far as they can. IL-2 really is a big, solid base for the thing to stand.

Hi Gentlemen ;o)

I have another opinion concerning the name of this game:
I think Storm of War (or IL2 Cliffs over Dover) is a soft designed for fans who like to play WWII sims. There is a couple of years that this soft would have been released, so a lot of fans are waiting for it. In this case, it is a good marketing action to call it "IL2 COF", because IL2 Sturmovick and 1946 are well known and this is like a quality certification... According to me that's why they took this name. We are on a specific market in PCgames, that is not for FPS player, WOW's fans or a big public... it's for WWII sims fans only, for guys who like history and would like to fly in this context. Moreover, WWII sims fans know for a long time that this is not an update for IL2 but a new game (such as IL2 Pacific fighters)...
Another time, this is only an opinion, and I'm not telling to you that you're wrong ;o)

Cheers,

Ted

Hi, Ted

I agree with everything that you wrote here in the bigger picture of things. It just feels weird to me after a few years of reading about "Storm of War: Battle of Britain." I feel that "Storm of War" is a fantastic label for a series of WW2 releases and would prefer that they keep it, but I can go along with "IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover."

Thank you for your comment.

Just seen this; Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover interview on PC|GAMER

Makes an interesting read, love this bit lol

OLEG: Agreed. In my opinion the crappiest plane from the current set of flyable aircraft is a Stuka with a heavy bomb load

PCG:Where next for the Cliffs of Dover engine? The Med? The Eastern Front? Korea?
OLEG: I can’t tell you the exact area or name of the title yet (market factors will have a say) but I personally prefer the Med.

I hope the move to the Pacific theatre doesn't take too long :roll:

I WANT IT x5
I CAN'T WAIT FOR ITS RELEASE IN NORTH AMERICA

SOOOOOOOOOO EXITED! Forgive me!

This reminds me of a very good book I read about a few American pilots that flew for the RAF before the U.S. entered the war. It's called The Few. It also follows a few German aces like Adolf Galland and Werner Moelders (can't put an umlaut in his name because I'm using an American keyboard) who flew against them. I highly reccommend it, it's an excellent read!

Thanks for your time,

I wouldn't hold your breath for a PTO add-on if I was you, remember Northtop Grumman V's Oleg

If it did happen it would have to be done by a 3rd party, which might be why the Korean War Sim that was being worked on was made by some one else???
