Just wondering, do you think that IL2 Sturmovik (original)was way ahead of it's time?

I have to agree.

Il2 set a standard that has not been eclipsed, even by it's notional replacement, Cliffs of Dover.

IL2 drove the largest software company in the world out if the combat flight sim market.

It was head and shoulders above anything that had come before it. The fact that is has stood on that pedestal for 10 odd years speaks for itself.

If Maddox Games can get their now turbulent house in order, Cliffs of Dover has a shot at standing on the shoulders of IL2.

But not in it's current state.
