Again, if you want to change the topic at hand.. Be my guest

But my answer to you delt specifcally with the 'aproach' that 1C took with IL-2 with regards to sequals.. And how Luither said they plan on using the same 'aproach' with CoD

Where each sequal includes the previouse version of the game..

As in all the planes, maps, features, etc.

And the sequal adds to it (planes, maps, features, etc)

Hope that helps!

Aye, but the sequel to Il-2 extended the front, whereas BoM is going into new territory.

This thread has been derailed, but I was under the impression we were discussing the future as a whole.

Actually IL-2 sequels broke into new territory too over it's 10+ years..

In that new 'things' were added that did not exist in the original IL-2..

So even that analogy of yours does not apply

But keep digging I am sure you will find something!

But in doing so you will miss the whole point!

That being Luither said 1C's method of providing new features is to re-package the game into a new version (sequel) that includes the previous version of the game while adding new content (planes, maps, features, mission making tools, graphics card support, etc)

As in that is how they did it with IL-2 and that is how they plan on doing it with CoD

Where as other flight sims do it in different ways.. Some like warbirds charge monthly fees, and flight sims like RoF charge you for individual addons (planes, maps, scarf, etc)

At least that was the 'plan' at the time Luiter said it!

Should a large asteroid hit the earth next week I am sure the plan will have to change..

At which point you can rest assured that there will be a hand full of whiners floating in space complaining that the 1C plan for CoD never transpired as originally intended!

You miss the point

Forgotten Battles added to the Russian Front and gave it so much more substance. It improved a game that had already received glowing feedback.

This isn't happening with CloD. Moscow is not Britain or France. The point I am making is that for the forseeable future, the Battle of Britain has been abandoned by the dev team. If they were expanding the game to include the BoF and the later Rhubarbs and Circus's, I would agree with everything you are posting in an attempt to prove my posts wrong.

The point I am making is that on relative terms, the future of CloD is only following the same lines as Il-2, but it's not being done identically. If it was identical the next expansion would be in the same theatre of operations, and the team would ensure that theatre actually had some meat.

So keep weasling your way around. You might actually post something that can weigh up to my facts.

omg...

So let me get this straight..

Your saying no sequal to CoD has been produced yet?

DUH!

But when 1C does produce a sequal, in this case the Russian Front, it will surly add more substance (planes, maps, features, updates, etc)

That is the point your missing, that you thought I missed

But keep digging!

I am here with a rope ready to pull you back into reality!

No, no, no!

I am talking about substance to the Battle of Britain! What part don't you understand?

Of course BoM is the sequel and will add more substance to the series.

But it will add nothing to the Battle of Britain.

Do I have to repeat myself again? Stop making yourself look stupid. Cliffs of Dover is the Battle of Britain, Battle of Moscow is the Russian Front.

The point I, and others, have been making is that the BoB aspect is being abandoned. No more campaigns, improved voice-packs or anything to improve it.

You don't know that!

The Brit's sold Spits to the USSR so chances are a new version of the Spit might be added in the Russian addon (figers crossed it is a 100 oct version) that could be used in a BoB mission

But one thing is for sure each and every sequal adds more to the BASELINE of the game engine..

So if not this sequal than the next may add something that can be used in a BoB campain!

For example, IL-2 Pacific Fighters added the PACIFIC! But at the same time it added Britt versions of the F4, F6 and F4u that could be used to simulate the usage of such planes in Brit carrier euro missions

What is so hard to understand about this?

I'm not sure how they can "re-package the game into a new version" when they weren't able to properly "package" the original game into a functioning version. I would think all the talk of sequels and MMO's would have been better announcements if they had waited until they fixed the first game. As it stands right now, not very many are confident they have the chops to fix it and they have done nothing but used stall tactics instead of actually fixing much.

BTW: Nice pic Ace! If you need help learning how to post it properly without the mini thumbnail....let me know.

Typical Ace....when he's stumped by a question or faced with facts he can't answer he goes to his trademark "chop". At least everybody can recognize the shear stupidity of his responses.
