When I sort out the reality from the my hopes.....it doesn't look very promising for anything substantial that will refit this game and mold it into what was expected from the first EA period. If I wasn't a push over for a new flight sim....I'd have waited for BOM to unfold a bit before I slapped my money down. Jason has come out and confirmed what had already been stated...BOM is BOS, nothing internally promising about that.
Still my hopes are for more historical missions....tied together in the storybook style of Juri or Veteran, something I can at least step into. MP...well how I wish I could jump in there and check things out...but connections here will not allow.
Future outlook for me and BOS/BOM..is messing around with single player missions...perhaps doing some combat logs and playing some "Dead is Dead" again. Reading about the Eastern Front...with a special focus on the air battle over Moscow always help me step into the history a bit more. I like making movies and I'm trying to get better at that.
I can get into this...only because of the "cracker" concept that somebody mentioned up above. I'm taking what I've got and making the best of it...and that's about it. With the lack of retooling coming from the Dev's I think the current rating on Metacritic is about right...When I gave it an 8...way back...I still had hopes the Dev's would put some time and money into making some corrections. That was then...this is now....
