A BoM demo for ClOD users

[hiro]

a demo would be nice, but we won't see it until the BoM is coming near to release.

I think they will go with the demo route, they have to show something to sell BoM after the BoB stuff we've been through.

Given that BoB was a bad release, they're going to make sure BoM works . . .

This willl help because time that will take will introduce the brother of the beast (newer PCs) so that the average joe will afford the beast of a pc required to run these types of games.

They'll know what we want, and what essentially everyone is expecting, yet be able to boil down the essence of what the Il-2 series is known for into that.


I'm sure most will give that demo a spin. And if the demo works, then wild fire of the demo being awesome etc will get those sitting on the fence or on the other side of the fence to jump over.

If not, then the devs have some time to go back to the drawing board and refine the working demo.

I think if Luthier is serious, the demo won't be flawed on a fundamental level. The most flaws will be detail like FM tweaks, adding X weather . . . not basic functionality issues that BoB players faced . . .

Releasing it for CLoD purchasers might be a nightmare. They could have steam accounts, but not everyone bought it via steam.

Well they could release the demo as part of a patch for Clod though. After patching is done, your OS then asks if you can install the demo (as a separate game). So anyone who owns Clod can play the demo.

That will last a day, then the demo shows up on torrent . . .







ROF facts

ROF's demo is so good, everyone thought it was the actual game and the actual game release it's sequel.






The only problem with the perfection of the ROF demo is the fans upset about paying for the sequel,
