6./ZG26_Emil Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Evening chaps BOS is on sale with a 50% discount on steam for anyone interested.
JG13_opcode Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Is it worth buying? I've played IL2 since Forgotten Battles, but held off originally on BOS because CLOD was so awful and didn't want to get burned on a pre-order. What's the population like during the day? I'm in Canada, so if I can't find at least one regularly-populated online war or full-switch dogfight server I'm not sure it'd be worth the money.
Finkeren Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 It's worth full price, except if you are the kind of guy who ONLY play SP campaigns, and even then it's worth the discount price.

No guarantees but, There is a US server and there are several dedicated folks trying to build up the community in NA, you would be helping them out greatly.
JG13_opcode Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 So.... there's a single US server? Yikes. I remember during the Pacific Fighters days you could sign on at just about any time of day and find 10+ servers with high populations.

JG13_opcode Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 It's worth full price, except if you are the kind of guy who ONLY play SP campaigns, and even then it's worth the discount price. Thanks. I'm more of a multiplayer guy, so if there are servers in North America with people playing I'll probably pick up the deluxe edition. Sorry, but that just isn't the case on BOS That's so sad. Well, what's the name of the US server? All I've been able to find on google is Syndicate, but IIRC they're European, and their website doesn't seem to list any actual details about their servers.
Finkeren Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Well, MP player numbers aren't great atm. However, I almost always find at least one 'normal' and one 'expert' server with a decent population most of the day. You buying the sim and playing it online brings us one step closer to the lively MP we all want however. Edited June 11, 2015 by Finkeren

Urra Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Well, that's heartening. Also, the EU server that is full during the day has a very playable ping of 120-160 from US at the moment. Thanks.
