Forum 1C interview: if you could ask 3 questions

[GabeFan]

Just curious... I've never played the PC version of IL-2, so what exactly were you able to do with the PC mission editor?

I'm guessing you could choose a plane to fly, type of mission (dogfight, escort, bombing), number of enemies, target (airfield, bridge, factory, etc...). Basically build your own mission?

You can make any kind of mission that you wanted to make. I mean anything.
Only people who have flown the original IL2 can understand how great the mission editor is.
If a mission editor was made on BOP you could have endless playability by making new missions yourself.
And there are some tools out there to make simpler missions in a few clicks so it is a matter of willingness or deadlines not a technical difficulty.

I remember racing maps.

I'm sure it could be introduced with dlc. Look at what gtaiv has done with dlc.

Hopefully it's something they will consider.

Well, I know for a fact I read it in some websites(but they are not Anton), but just to set it clear(from someone who knows for a fact), Anton, will there be a mission
editor?

If not, PLEASE make it DLC.

Lets just hope he's convincing the publisher to get IL2BoP website out.

[Raw Kryptonite]

Done!
See first post in thread for the full interview.
I edited a bit and weeded out the repeat questions.
