Hopefully ArmA III won't do the same.

Until we get details of what they plan to do and how they plan to do it, all this is just silly, after all they were building their tanks in the current game engine, whats not to say they arent going to try and pull of a MMO of Simulation proportions...

Well, I wasn't as utterly optimistic as others in the past and I was right. And I don't see why it is going to be different this time.

I hope B6 can chime in and say this is a completely different standalone game that has nothing to do with the SOW/BOB/CLOD series other than sharing the broken game engine.

Looks like all the hardcore WWII guys will be stuck with 1946. That business model sold 1,000,000's of copies. Heck, just refresh the graphics in 46 and everyone would buy it all again. Leave it in open GL or w/e. But MMO = no way from me.

Would be nice for the best of two worlds. I too am hoping for two separate stand alone's as the optimum. I was hoping Clod would visit other theaters after BOM...not much to add till the details emerge I guess.

I dunno, I guess my feeling on it is this, if they dont make COD a good game for the masses, then trying to sell something, ANYTHING else under the same name will end up losing money. It would be business suicide. On that note, they are a business and they have to show that they have a future, future development is that. We have about 12 pieces from a 10000 piece puzzle... why are you trying to guess what it is until you have more of the pieces.

Guess what ... Their last puzzle was released without important pieces and with pieces that are not done properly and there's no sight of a finished puzzle on the horizon and that they are switching over to teddy bears now doesn't help the state of this puzzle either.

Guess you didnt read all my last post... either way it doesnt matter. We dont know their plans, all we know is they said they would fix COD before they released anything further... if they dont hold that promise, I dont see this company lasting very long. Guessing, whining and crying wont do anything to help either in a positive or negative light...

Agree 100%

My bet is on two separate game development streams, one pure flight sim, other MMO based on the COD engine.

Why limit your product offering, you just alienate customers?
