At 2016 - 2017 you will like buy controlled ground vehicles ?

=FB=LOFT

16) Is it possible in the future the introduction of a controlled ground vehicles / ships?

 

Technically, yes. But now we are ready to only talk only the present. To implement these ideas need substantial funding and significantly larger staff and a longer period of production. It all depends on how popular our project is. The more users willing to pick it up, the more possibilities we will have in the future.

 

Sometimes we run experiments in the team, what would happen if we did ... Tanks. Here is a short video of the experiment. It shows that any technology - is only a tool, with which you can create a great deal and that it will depend on the authors and the audience for which it is intended.

Horrible idea sorry...

[AX2]

Horrible idea sorry...

Maybe .. NP   

I think. about extra money for new maps and planes...a tank can be done faster than a plane.. maybe....

[Asterix]

I think the best way, would a separate standalone addon that would be combinable to BoS.
so that tank and flight simulation players can play together on the battlefield

For the owner of the "BoS tank sim" it would not be necessary to buy "BoS flight Sim".
it would be really great if both (tank and flight sims) can be combined

btw.: So the Developer could cover a larger market, they must only make the tank controllable^^
the map and other ambient things are already present
And thus 777 Studios can publish 2 Games which are combineable with each other

sry for my really bad english (shame on me)
but i hope you guys understand me what i try to say

Sorry, but no. A tank simulator needs a much more detailed map than is feasible for an air combat simulator.

[FlatSpinMan]

I think that would stretch resources too much, and as Andy said, the map detail would need to be higher, but wouldn't it be hilarious selling a tank game to provide fodder for us.

[AX2]

I can understand...  ok but..

I talk about 2016 or 2017 , not for now... ofcourse! :   

I think about give developers an alternative path for money and fun!

 

The developers NOW have amazing 3D models done for tanks and  the tanks have amazing lights at night , awesome bump mapping on the ground  !.

The combined Arms  of  DCS...  have more detailed map?

Set Scenes  low  or medium.. then you will see.

 

I think the developers of BoS only need this and everything will be done.

 

 

 

 

The poll is open... 

[Lord_Haw-Haw]

I agree with what most have writen, the tank bit I would see as a maybe secondary feuture, or as a seprate game that might some time in the future

be merged if that is possible. But nothing to think of at such an early stage where not even the first part of the flight sim is yet on the market. That would

be saddeling the horse from the rear.

So the poll is missing the option, "at the earlies several years down the road maybe"

^{Yes, Why not? In th future of course} 

[leitmotiv]

We can barely get limited amount of airplanes that served in the battle area , 6-7 years ago i would say yes this is how things must go mearge ground war sim with air war sim, now no way in hell we will see somthing on sim standards like this done in 50 years, in game wourld to me it seams like no one cares about pushing the limits any more

[7./SchG.2_Valkyr]

Ground controlled vehicles would be nice (Propasal in Clodo [don't hit me]  ) but not when airframe development will be delayed.

[crossfade]

No Just No (play battlefield if that is what you want m8)

[Tektolnes]

When server bandwidth opens up so high fidelity games can comfortably handle hundreds of players in a full online realistic war game then sure. Until then we're best off sticking to planes only I think.

[Pupo]

to be honest, COD's engine was WAY more suited than BOS/ROF engine for this, and still they failed miserably when attempting this.

 

i just don't think its a good idea, a tank sim needs a much more different enveronment than an air sim. EG.: the 2d tree's ROF has are fine for a flight sim, for a tank sim it would be silly.

[AX2]

If you want FAST new maps and more planes, developers will more need money. 

Where is the problem ?

I will fly planes 70% of the time, but surely I will fights on tanks also..

Choose a tank or a plane is your decision...

Why kill an option ?

Because you would most likely need double the team to make a good tank sim, as that is just as detailed as any

flight sim. Many tank simmers are picky too as they too have standards like Red Orchestra which still goes as a bench mark

even though it is rather old. Add a tank sim to BoS and people would expect it to be at least better than Red Orchestra,

otherwise why bother. To go with that BoS still will need a lot of fleshing out as with the release is just a very basic set

of aircraft. Ever checked the list of all the aircraft that where involved in the battle of Stalingrad? It goes way beyond

a Bf 109 a La5, or a Yak3 and Pe2 and He111.

What are those 6sec supposed to prove? Pictures of tanks everyone has seen,

even during the Friday updates for CoD, and that was it.

I doubt very much that 1C has the time to deliver something like this, and a good flight

sim. That is why it is better they stick to the flight sim, instead of starting a dozen projects

and getting none finished.

Nothing

 

The poll is very simple,

1) We like controlled ground vehicles, and  maybe..we can show them if it is a profitable business or not.

2)We don´t like the idea

 

Poll or not poll, 1 C and 777 will have the final word about all this.

 

A poll  maybe can help, only that.

+100

[EagleEye]

So many nay sayers... Bummer!

[[RG]Flanker1985]

I would buy T-34 if it is properly simulated with cooperative option.

[Foobar]

I'd rather would like player controlled AA weaponry.

[[RG]Flanker1985]

It well be good to have land unit or even infantry simulation in there.

Just like Combined Arms in DCS, it is going to be great.

[dkoor]

I just think what will be the cost of this thing.

Plus the development time... not that I know about all the latest software development capabilities/possibilities, but if someone outhere ever made realistic flight sim combined with tank, ship/sub sim please let me know.

 

Don't want to poop at anyone's party, especially as I think we are all in the same boat when wishes are in question - of course I'd love to have T-34, Königstiger etc. in the same story with Ju-87, IL-2 & rest of the gang, but it just outright smells impossible to me without even second thought.

 

Probable reality is that it is not a small miracle that we get IL-2 BoS in the first place (considering the exclusiveness of its content and really how small our community is), I can hardly imagine anything going on beyond this story.

[Karost]

I selected  "NO"

 

just let Dev.Team do what the best they can like a next theaters.

[Flyingpencil]

Armor, NO.

Trucks. maybe

AA guns and Self Propelled AA (SPAA) guns, YES!!!

 

That is, IF you want to have real dynamic campaigns that will keep you entertinaed for YEARS.

[Trooper117]

Here we go again... let's turn this into 'war thunder'...

For gods sake, can we be serious flight simmers again. Let the developers be a master of the flight sim genre, not a jack of all trades!

If they take time out to produce flippin tanks etc, then that is detracting from new planes, new theatres.... why am I even trying to explain the ramifications?????

[Cybermat47]

If I wanted to have tanks, I would be playing War Thunder day and night to get into the ground forces closed beta.

 

As it is, I only play it in the day.

[Triad773]

I voted no; I believe developing another plane to shoot at (even if it were just AI) would be more fruitful than tangential (yet related) vehicles
