Storm of War-Battle of Britain was probably considered to be too violent a title...I think a broad mix sales target was considered more likely, having a neutral sounding title.

Uhhh...well....Isn't Combat aviation, aerial warfare supposed to be a bit violent? Have you seen any of the X-rated Carnage spewed out in FPS 'games'???


As to a proper title for SOW:BOB, how about:

"Tea and Crumpets at Four O'Clock"
A proper social engagement gone awry....Pity, ehh what?

Maybe ...

Battle of Dover, Cliffs of Britain?

Or perhaps an anagram to keep everyone happy ...

Bob Toff Loiters, Ideal Traffic Van?

Yeah, I think that's the one

Maybe ubi have had to light a fire under Oleg to get some decisiveness,after all the biggest moan on here is about it's release date.Maybe ubi have had enough as well and now saying enough is enough, time to make a decision.
It may not be a bad thing if Oleg can keep working on patches for the smaller details that aren't critical for the overall running and enjoyment of the game.
