While I understand there are 'financial issues' at the moment.

It is very disheartening to see an 'High Definition' or 'Cinematic' 'Simulation' being created on such ancient and non representative hardware.

There is a saying in the west that I have always found has a lot of truth "The workman is only as good as his Tools"

I wish you well, but it concerns me greatly that even you the head of your company doesn't have a 'Basic Widescreen' 20-22 inch monitor on your desk. Its 2010 sir.

Since I don't expect and am resigned to the fact that scale and graphics are not going to be up to 2010 specs ....... can we at least get some 'gameplay' updates.

1. LoDs (dots for high resolution players)
2. Graphical User Interface/ Server Browser/ Friends Lists/ Squadron Tools
3. More information on 'Battle Engine' - What if anything can you tell us about your vision for online war in 2010.
4. What measures will be taken for anti cheat?
5. Will Dedicated Servers be available to host 'online war' so that Human Hosts (and their issues) can be removed.
6. Are we finally going to get rid of the 'Lobby' ?

P.S.
Did you get the Blu ray?

I think that their hard ware reflects what the masses would be using at the time of purchase of SOW

Grégory, thank you very much for that piece of journalism. Merciiiiii! I enjoyed reading it a lot. I am sure the translation was hurried out as well to get it to our greedy communities.

An English writing tip: the "!", "?" and ":", in fact all of the special signs, are written directly after a word, like this "That's right!". French puts in a space after the word. Just a difference, but the French way is quite noticable for the non-French people when reading

When you use a french default set writing software this is what you get... and like you said, it was hurried... no time to check everything, and some sentences are not as correct as I would have liked (I was subcontracted a part of the translation)

My dream - to "create" some third party serious uindustry around SoW. At first time - for the WWII (wwI) aircraft...then for the early jets... then.... God knows... it is depending of many things and at first depends of BoB success



the choice to have click pit may be the most important made to realize your dream. best luck to you
