Chances of a demo are slim and none. There is absolutely no need for one, and it would delay the release of the Sequel for months. Most people bought COD based on their experience with the first IL-2 series. People bought COD knowing the reviews were bad, go figure. Most people will wait this time for reviews of the Sequel, from people they trust, and they will buy if its decent. If its decent even the most negative in the community will buy the series at some point. A demo is a waste of time and money, for a company already lacking in time and money.

I bought it year after release for something nearing $5. After reading the reviews, I thought "surely it can't be that bad?".

It was.

Now, it's finally getting playable. I'll wait for at least a year after release with BoM too, probably for some sale as well. The "CloD demo" did not convince me . If there will be new "demo" which will show that it really works, I'll buy it sooner. Possibly for full price.

I'll wait until I can pick it up from the bargain bin for 10 bucks or so. Shouldn't need to wait too long.

I concur - a demo is not needed. None of the "bitten once - twice shy" people should buy BoM on release but wait for reviews and community reaction.

You are correct i was one of those BUT i ,along with many others expected the game to be mended not abandoned.
That for me makes me think twice before buying BOM on an off chance.Proper independent reviews for me first if at all.

Its not abandoned unless your plan was never to buy any further Sequels, which would be highly unlikely.
