come on, Cnopi...broaden your horizons a bit, mate....where is it carved in stone that we must only have WW2 planes?
think back a bit to the early days of mods, when it was only WW2 stuff. Then guys said we must just stick to WW2.
Then came CK, and suddenly it was ok to include WW1 planes.....then came Korea, and these guys then said, ok, its alright to have WW1 AND Korea. So, where does it end? And, for that matter, why should it end?
I don't see any reason why modern planes can't be in the game, especially if they can be made to work properly....
limiting yourself goes against the grain of modding, in genereal. I don't see why IL2 can't become the new Century of Flight...especially as there aren't any other sims around that can do this at the moment....considering MS's withdrawal from flight simming...why shouldn't IL2 take up the mantle to become the greatest flight sim ever, and not just the greatest WW2 flight sim ever?
I support anything like this, but obviously ONLY if the planes can be properly represented with regards FM performance, controls and avionics, etc.
Hats off to guys who are prepared to give this a go.... :wink:
