Heinkel-162 Wrote:I was reading at SAS that this is some sort of Hoax, or...Its not a hoax and I don't know what the deal is between UBI and Oleg Maddox, but I do know Oleg was trying to get the military interest in the sim at one point! As for a Luftwaffe campaign yes there will be one as I all ready point out what Luthier said on the C1 forums. (If you don't know who luthier is then I think I'm right in say hes the guy helped get IL2; Pacific Fighters off the ground as well as working on other projects with Oleg)
That the Developers working with Maddox are threatning to cut funding to the sim if he doesn't put something on the shelves soon, apparently it doesn't even have a luftwaffe campagin yet and would be a possible, "pay" add on later...
And what is with the name change???

The announcement is just a little incomplete.As for the name change I don't know but Oleg was talking openly on the C1 Forums not long ago about the name and should they change it ect... He did say some thing about them using his name but he didn't like the idea, so I'm guessing that UBI where a bit worried that people would be a bit sceptical about this new sim on the market, but put IL-2 Sturmovik in the name and there realise that its part of a long running series of good flight sims. In other words its a load of marketing crap.
Sorry about the confusion!

Any way looks like UBI got the message and has updated the official page;
