I've heard that all the aircraft are locked to bright pink hello kitty skins.

Anybody who thinks in game ads are the way forwards have two options either they jump off a bridge or I push the off.... Choose!!!

If you don't believe me there is a beufighter in a floral pink scheme that proves me right

Yep, bad Idea. It would be letting the camel's nose under the tent. I wouldn't mind some limited and tasteful (no blinking yellow ads) ads for related products in the multiplayer lobby perhaps, but not in the game.

Ha - go to the potential advertisers about this and the next thing you know Oleg (we) will be paying them just to keep their wares in the game ...



:D

Haha I know where that skin came from, and it was pretty much created with the soul purposes of irking serious business flight simmers. It was tongue in cheek poking fun of people that can't get over the fact that it is just a game.

No thanks, not ever. Big corporations are one of the few subjects where I'll take a slippery-slope argument and run with it with confidence. The boat hasn't already sailed on that one yet so let's not force it.

Hahah, that's exactly the first thought that flashed in front of my eyes, a well-dressed lawyer gets off the Moscow subway, makes his way to Oleg's office, opens his suitcase and starts off by saying "Good morning sir, i represent Lipton tea...." :-P

Sorry, not a good idea. It may start off subtly but next thing you know you'll have the Gecco popping up on your gunsight to sell you insurance and little golfers standing on your throttle quadrant ranting about new golf balls. Where would it all end? Opra nose art?... Augh!...:evil:
