It's not the art work on the "Box" that concerns me but the information at the bottom right hand corner.

"Internet connection required for activation"

Have I missed something ?? or does this mean that it will not be able to be played "Off Line"

Most people are thinking it means just a one time internet activation then you can be offline and fly.

that's what it seems to be saying... A one time activation, before the software can run. (same as Windows, Office, etc)

The funny thing is, if you have a game about the Battle of Britain, its almost a given that there will be a Spitfire on the cover. It's their cliffs, their country, and they won the thing after all.
I wonder though, what impact it would have on the average punter (especialy the British) if you took away all that familiar stuff and presented them with something more stark and threatening.

Looks really good Feathered!

I too dislike the proposed UK boxart, it's really dull and you can't even see in the cockpits... looks like the plane is filled with concrete or something lol Havn't really seen any promotional content yet that i can say supports what this game deserves. Seems like they're rushing it, and just trying to push it out the door so that we'll quit driving them insane haha Then again there is still plenty of time till release to get it all sorted out. Either way tho I'm buying it. I just hope Oleg makes enough profit so that we can see future titles!
