oleg, you better hurry, RoF is releasing a ww-2 sim next

Is it right to compare IL2 with RoF? Times are certainly different and in this economic market it's tough to give away as much as Maddox/UBI did.

The difference between the two (and I think is a valid point) is that there was a fully fleshed out game with IL2. You could take on different roles dependant upon the plane you chose. There was more than two planes listed. There were more maps. As far as I remember online worked from the get go. IMO RoF isn't a complete game.... yet.

TBH. If SoW:BoB were to come out at $100.00 I'd buy it. If I add up what would be necessary for RoF to be what I'd consider a complete game I'd probably pay the same amount as I'd pay for BoB and I'd be happy to do so if all the features and planesets were included and functional.

In time I'm sure it will get to the point where IL2 was upon it's release (or to where I think RoF is a complete game) but two planes and one map and non-working online are a little light for my tastebuds.





With that said even SoW seems like it will have more features out of the box than RoF. We can all ONLY guess as to why the diparity of releases, but I'd hate to set a precedence for incomplete releases just to make more money upon completion or to allow unfinished buggy games to go out the door to unsuspecting simmers.
