In my opinion, neither are the successors of IL-2 Sturmovik so far, because they first need to englobe most of WWII's fronts to be considered BY ME the successor of IL-2 Sturmovik.

But who knows? IL-2 started with just a few aircraft for example, and each patch, each expansion pack gave it more maps, airplanes, and other general additions. The thing is, with the economic crisis, you can quickly realize that all the gaming companies are getting greedy, they've been doing absurd things like RoF team, they released a game with only 2 flyable planes, and you have to buy each additional planes separately, and they are NOT cheap.

We have yet another recent example: Valve released Left4Dead and promised inumerous free updates with new weapons, characters and campaigns, so far they added ONE level which is not even a campaign level, and then announced Left4Dead2, which is gonna have the same engine, all the same content, and will only add some characters, weapons and campaigns, FOR FULL PRICE.

I've been having too many disappointments with the gaming industry lately, and I hope (although I know he will), Oleg doesn't jump on the same boat the others are jumping onto.

Specht.

Yep, when IL-2 was first released it only covered the Ost Front, Eastern Front and the Great Patriotic War.
