These updates and comments from Oleg over the last few weeks have made me realize he and his crew are laying the groundwork for something truly monumental here. It's not just bullshit wishful thinking or tricky salesmanship. The potential is truly awesome. Unprecedented. I just hope there are enough third-parties willing and capable enough to get involved and provide the extra content required to help fulfil that potential.
I guess there's always going to be an element of 'what could have been', as there are obviously still limits to what can be done, but it really would be a shame if the opportunities Maddox Games are providing with this new sim aren't followed up on by other contributors.
We'll still have the core premier-air-combat-sim provided by Oleg and his immediate team, which itself is enough to be thankful for, but this thing could take off in ways none of us can fully imagine.
Here's to hoping this work gets the recognition it deserves, from the people with the talent and ability to make more of it than one man or team alone possibly could.
Les.
