I know. I hope that was only because it was a demo. I think I remember IGN or Gamespot, etc. saying there was going to be 50+ planes.

Yeah, I remember reading the 50+ planes bit too.

What's all this about maybe not being able to fly Axis aircraft tho?!

Yeah that would suck. It did say that ds would have 40+ planes though. So maybe there will be that many and more for the next gen consoles.

I hope you're right. I visited a lot of site and nothing talk about the amount of aircraft except that one.
They say just there are +50 missions.

There are, but I heard you could only fly them in multiplayer.

And to Stanrosquain, I went back to it to check myself and I was right. (at this point, lets hope the website was correct!)

Also, I've noticed that picture of the burning carrier placed with BoP screens at three different sites. Does this mean we will have a carrier in the Battle of Britain?

Great article, thanks for posting!


I would be shocked if Axis aircraft weren't flyable in multiplayer - it just wouldn't make any sense.

Its the same reason you don't play as a Wehrmacht soldier in any of the Call of Duty games' single-player mode.
The campaign is structured along the Allied storyline, whereas the online play features the whole sha-bing.

Great article. Makes us even more eager to get our hands on this one. But....no Axis planes to fly in. Makes no sense at all. What's the use of a multiplayer without being able to choose sides. Would be a blast if this is true Guess they know what they are doing at 505 so lets hoipe for the best.
