Next Gen for IL-2?

Sure look like the PC port for IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey to me.

IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey is a combat flight simulator video game. As the previous installments of the PC series IL-2 Sturmovik, it depicts combat aircraft from World War 2

...

A PC edition entitled "Wings Of Prey" is scheduled to be released around December 2009.

not that Oleg had any to do with this game, but it carries its name and was aimed for console audience at first. (also if I'm correct the game uses the IL2's engine to a degree with the permission of the IL2 devs ofcourse)

They used that engine? Look like they took the big step to upgrading it.

yea is a console version but the pc version will carry much more weight.

Wild_skipper · 12-30-09, 05:25 AM

I bought it, but i still have to download it. It looks like an awsome game though

Schroeder · 12-30-09, 12:26 PM

In the biggest German Il2 Forum (www.sturmovik.de) they say it is less realistic than Il2 and one can "feel" in the flight characteristics that it used to be a console game. So it seems this is eye candy only.

How much is "less realistic" than IL2?

Task Force · 12-30-09, 11:04 PM

well... Il2 wasnt all that realistic... so probably quite a bit.
