.. They got an FW190 over Stalingrad, no reason they can't have a Maachi... Totally lost me there.

OOPS, meant 2 months, thanks for the correction.
Looks like maybe some Italian stuff in the works, maybe they will beat Cliffs to the Med. They got an FW190 over Stalingrad, no reason they can't have a Maachi... I see the addition of the 190 as a more future oriented choice and also trying to appease the Luft crowd. Zak and Loft both acknowledged early on that the 190 and the La both were not at Stalingrad. I see the Macchi as the same thing partly and I say bring it on. Any new aircraft will be a welcome addition to the sim in my opinion.

Although the FW190 flew on the Eastern Front,I don't think it flew at Stalingrad.

It didn't... I don't think the La did either.

A diversion...they're well practiced at these types of Ops
How about making the game play and look like the Steam Promo?
ha ha
Ridiculous
Go to other flight sim advertisements on Steam like IL-2 1946 or even Wings of Prey!
And you will note they use strictly in game clips....not this CGI nonsense for BoS!
Says a lot about the lack of integrity with this team

They cannot stay in Russia over a white map forever though. Well, perhaps they can, forever for them may not actually be far off.
Wishful thinking... I have to ask though... Why would another failed sim be a good thing? How could that help the genre? Even if you don't like it... How can another failed sim help the genre of WWII flight sims? I don't get it.

What's sad? Telling the truth! The BoS Steam promo is an over the top misrepresentation (a nice term for L__) This is not an accident on their part. What's bewildering is people that defend these practices....thinking that somehow or another...the sow's ear will turn into the silk purse

CGI promo is hardly uncommon, indeed most games use CGI trailers. There's nothing dishonest about it (well, nothing unusual for game marketing, at least).
Granted, they SHOULD add gameplay vids, and I'm not sure why they haven't. Graphics and simulation itself are great, so showing a vid of a dogfight or takeoff/landing, or a flight over stalingrad would look great. This sim is gorgeous, so some vids would be cool.
That said, great news about the Macchi, looking forward to seeing what new additions we'll be getting.

Bearcat99, with your "Wishful thinking..." comment, are you accusing me of hoping bos folds?
I have to ask though...why do you feel the need to pretend you can read my mind?
I do not care if you don't get it but I will enlighten you, OK?
Whether or not another failed sim helps of hurts the genre is not the criteria I personally use when buying games. I buy games based on the possible enjoyment I will get from playing it.
Some people think it is necessary to buy everything, good or bad that a company puts out, some do not.
I early accessed bos thinking I would end up with a successor to IL2 1946, I was mistaken and as long as you do not yet dictate the discussion I will continue to talk about this game.
I have a question for you, why do you feel the need to question each person who posts an opinion, are you the forum detective?
You might be doing the game a disservice instead of advancing its cause.

It's ALL CGI.....This is indefensible!....why the misdirections? (to other unrelated titles or times)
Especially considering the controversy with this title
They should be bending over backwards to be transparent
Not more bait and switch
But that would be departing from established (upon release) protocol with this team.

Truth be told there are more than enough in game videos around to give a more honest picture of what BoS looks like than that promo.. and the vids are not bad at all.... In fact they are close to what is in that video.. The biggest thing to me is the pilot in the pit.. as far as it being different from the sim.. the rest is very close. Close enough so that a person wouldn't go WTH!! when they got the sim.

Too many bears in this forrest It's like the daily dose of Tokyo Rose...or Lord Haw Haw The wordplay and misdirections to conceal and camouflage what anyone with two eyes in their head can plainly see It's CGI! It is not the game!!

The MC 202 will stay in Stalingrad. Guys, We're not going to the med next. Let me just make that clear. Jason
