Guess that answers a few questions. They are going to sell the planes on their own website and they will not be boxed with the US or European release. (at least that was my take on it.)

Vienna, 2nd rock left.
Master, it's possible the boxed versions US/EU might still include a bonus aircraft like the russian one. That doesn't exclude them from being sold for the download versions.

As much as i love the news and wish you all the good luck i can't help but feeling left out as a EU customer. How many more country-exclusive launches have you planned? Or will it be some special countries in EU also before it becomes available for the mass?

A digital distribution would be great.

Hell, once it comes to the US anyone who wants it will be able to get it. I think they have a digital download ready for release on the 8th too though.

Quote from the speech: "Our first patch is waiting for you at home and
in June – you will have our second update which will completely change the interface of game and add some new fighters. You will be also able to purchase new fighters from our online store at any time."

Not so clear to me, but I guess we will find out soon enough.

That was quoted from LOFT's speech at the SOYUZ store, BTW:

What I found interesting in their speech document was this paragraph (particularly the last line);

felt like builders of a truly great war. Certainly we could begin our way only in hangars where all combat ghters
were created. And like Roman (Roman Ivanov - general manager of neoqb) sad yesterday, "it is interesting to live
a life of engineers from the invention of the rst planes to modern jets and space travelling". We picked on WWI
because it came rst and the WWII will be the second, because it was second:)


Does this suggest to others that some way down the track they will use their engine for a WWII flight sim?

Guys,

They are talking to European publishers trust me. They simply don't have a deal done yet. They're bummed they could not have a simultaneous launch, but that's what happends sometimes. And for the record, dozens of games get released in Europe first then the U.S. You have no idea how much money I have made for GoGamer by importing Euro-first games and selling them here before anyone else. So one time it comes to the USA first is Ok. :-)

Jason

Serious??
C'mon, even you don't believe that.

90% of games, if they are not a simultaneous release, are released in the US first.

ROF has been aimed at the US market for a while now. The sudden inclusion of the Spad13 and Breguet and MIA for the Camel and DR1 that were centre stage in the early vids shows that.
