Question on new map and BOM


Recommended Posts

Posted

Currently I own BOS.   I'm eventually considering BOM.

 

Will the new map be available to BOS owners or only BOM owners ?

 

Will particular AC be available outside of buying BOM - for example, I'm interested in only the P40 right now - will I be able to just buy it ?

 

Will BOM include a new single player campaign system * ?

* I'm making my way through the BOS single player campaign - I have enjoyed the offline playability.  That said, the missions are quite light.   ie. last mission I went on a night mission (which I wish I could skip), and ran into a single bomber - all by himself with no escort, etc...    Will the campaign system get updated for both BOS and BOM ?

 

Thanks in advanced, glad to see the continual progress

If by new map you mean the summer and autumn, yes they will be free for everyone who owns BOS.

 

I assume that the Moscow map will only be for those who got BOM.

as for the p40 goes, you will need to own BOM standard edition to be able to buy its premium planes (p40 also)

I'm too lazy to look, sorry, from my recollection you WILL be able to buy planes from BoM to use in BoS. However there will be no campaign for them so you can only use them in the quick mission editor. I believe you can also use them online providing the map they are using is a BoS map.

I want to say that this is not true. 

I believe I saw that the BoM Premium planes will be available even if you don't buy BoM.

I stand corrected then. Thank you.

But I must say that IMHO It doesnt make too much sense because those planes in MP would be used mostly in Moscow map and If used in BOS maps they would be somewhat inferior to BOS planes.

Except that they were both used operationally at Stalingrad....Battle of Moscow not so much, I understood that the Macchi's only turned up in early September 42 in the Stalingrad theatre  and the P-40's used in BoM were the earlier C model which was quite different, the P-40E fought extensively at Stalingrad until their units were pulled out due to lack of aircraft

 

Here's hoping they will be available for purchase separately to bolster the historical BoS planeset ;)

A lot of the planes being made for BoM will fit in quite well on the Stalingrad map. Besides the ones already mentioned, the Bf 110, Ju 88, and 109 E-7 will also fit in quite well.

btw I would prefer my I16 kamikaza attack vs gustaws and fwulfs

1) The new Moscow maps (autumn and winter) will be available only for BOM owners.

2) You'll be able to buy P-40 or MC.202 if you have standard BoM edition, sorry.

3) BoM will include advanced single player campaign like you'll see in the free BoS add-on this autumn.

Thank you for the information!  Keep up the good work

Great. I'll love more SP content.
