An MMO (virtually everyone I've ever seen - take WoT for example) throws all that flexibility out the window. I'd love to be proved wrong. But unless the definition of an MMO has changed, those of us that enjoy running servers, mission making, adminning or what have you just got a big kick in the nuts.

I'll wait for the announcement in the hopes that this is a completely standalone game that has nothing to do with cliffs or the new series. But judging by some posts here, I think this is the future. Very sad news.
You'll still have CoD though . Seriously, this is probably the only way to keep the series alive and we can't blame luthier for this. I think it's the big wigs at 1c who've seen all the other cashcows out there e.g World of Tanks and want in on the action. My biggest concern though , is that once this supposed IL-2 MMO will be released (2+ years?!) the market will already be over saturated with other plane MMO's, two of them are already in beta mind you. It's like Nokia and their Windows phones, too little, too late.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here, let's wait for that announcement......and then start the raving mad speculations. I've said it before here though, one button online action sells, hardcore mini niche sims don't. God bless capitalism! it has no conscience, no memory and no allegiance, all it want is growth, MMO's are fast growth businesses and also fast fail in many cases, perfect for quick bucks.
