They have my interest but I'm not making any rash purchase decisions just yet.
50% off current DLC I see too.
If you watch Jaws backwards, it's a heart warming story about a shark that spits out so many people that they have to open a beach.

Well the F2 has a different engine and firepower to the F4, also a different Pe-2 variant, the IL2 is still the same version I believe, the major difference came with the IL-2M... But yes, holding off until I get more info on this one  Glad to see the P-40 making an appearance...

I like those planes - Emil, Ishak/Rata, Mig-3, Bf-110, Ju-88, P-40, Folgore... All among my favorites.

It looks like they are going to do a pre-order in March, with Early Access to follow, like they did with BOS. I think I will hold off this time around, and see what happens down the road for single player system.

More leftovers from the never released BoS? Maybe.
They could throw every plane from old IL246 and it still does not compel me to buy it.
They need a real campaign, give me custom graphics, prove the dserver and ME will actually be able to make large scale battles, before I would even think of giving money to this company ever again.

The problem is the utter lifelessness of the mission area along with brain dead AI. No more money up front nor on release to these mofos....from now on it's strictly Missouri rules... Show me....don't tell me.

I'm simply going to wait next year's March before a decision can be made.

For the Luftwaffle guys, the inclusion of the Ju-88 and the 110 will be a good attraction. They have been asked for. For me, I'm glad they have managed to show they are moving forward. (and yes I know they still haven't changed their design) but it still gives me hope they will move eventually to Africa and the med...

Just curious, but would flying the same style of "campaign" and getting unlocks in say...the dessert as opposed to snow be more fun? After the initial "oh cool, sand" and "oh, cool a Ju88" wears off, what substance is left? Would flying with a different skinned map actually make the small scale 3 bomber formation, 4 way point system, any better? Again I look back an think of all the stuff you can do in IL246. Every map, plane, campaign, etc. etc, but just not as pretty as newer sims. Then I think newer sims, would have something (aside from eye candy) to make it stand out. You know...all the "advances". But at least in BoS's case, there isnt. You can put a dress and makeup on a pig......but yeah still a pig. You can even throw a closet of dresses and makeup on the pig....still a freekin pig.

@ Trooper: You forgot the iconic Emil for Lufties  Fortunatelly I am not just one side player, so I will fly 'em all. @ Loki: just learning to fly/fight all BoS/BoM planes properly in QMB will keep me busy for quite a long time. And I hope some reasonable content comparable to good old 1946 will appear eventually. And there is also MP.

Apparently there is going to be an update of sorts around the end of the month, that mentions both additions and fixes. ( over 40 additions ). I wonder what kind of " additions " he is talking about...
He mentions dserver and ME, however no projected dates given...
<<< Note that Version 1.009 for BOS is coming really soon, bringing you over 40 additions and fixes. This update is going to be deployed in the end of February. And of course we�re already working on the Summer and Fall Stalingrad maps which are going to distributed freely among all BOS players in Q3 2015. And work on the Dserver and Mission Editor continues.>>>

I don't trust them and I don't think anyone can blame me for that. Others will jump in you will see despite this recent shambles.

I still have IL2 1946 (three separate versions) on my Hard drive, and I'm eagerly awaiting CFM... I have said a zillion times on this and any other forum regarding BoS that I hate their design choices, and as a mainly offline player it holds very little entertainment value. That doesn't mean I want to see it go down the tubes... If and when that FME comes out and people get their head around it we might see some salvation as offliners with good user made campaigns. For that to happen I have to wait... which is no biggy actually as I'm having fun playing so many other excellent games at the moment. With DCS, RoF, WoFF, and my beloved IL2 1946, I still get my daily flying fix, not to mention, ArmaII and III, Sniper Elite 3, Rome2, Ryse etc, I am certainly not bored in my gaming world.
