I used to love the large maps in IL2, forming up, then gaining altitude and a decent route to objective, wondering if the opposition had worked out which way we were coming in.. but the small maps will perhaps restrict this?


The small map size was one of the major issues for me, and I don't know if others had problems with the sun glare. I understand not being able to spot aircraft coming from out of the sun, but I couldn't see anything on the side of my aircraft that the sun was on, no matter how I adjusted the ingame settings or video card settings.

I believe the Gaijin developers were part of Olegs problems during SOW's development. I know that the Gaijin developers borrowed IL-2's Flight Model with obviously Olegs blessing, but he did say that they didn't reciprocate when he asked them for info on Dover. Personally I think there were alot more issues later on, some of them I think were, some of Olegs crew leaving the SOW development and working for Gaijin. When playing WOP there were way too many similarities to the original IL-2 series. I would think that Oleg being a stickler for detail may have made him a bear to work for.

Don't know anything about MG people leaving to go to Gaijin, but the two offices are only about 6km apart.

My character somehow got all twisted up. I was playing the mission where you have to infiltrate the Golden Glow Estate and do multiple things. When I was out burning beehives and fighting I just eventually ran away to view my success from a distance. I first noticed it when I squated down on a tree trunk. Coot..the squatter../simHQ/2011

Wolf, can you say if the BOB map has increased in size enough to include a part of the French coast so that the Axis will have someplace to land.
