A request to rethink SP options now

[=IRFC=Huetz]

Ok, so this:

 

http://forum.il2sturmovik.net/index.php?showtopic=7&page=2http://forum.il2sturmovik.net/index.php?showtopic=7&page=2

 

is where the devs are currently at with regards to SP, and in particular player created SP content.

 

While I understand the decisions behind the current model in RoF (user creates content ie campaign with dev assistance which then gets put in the store for sale) I hope that the development team is aware that a lot of the original IL2 community revolved around free player created content.

 

In fact, the communities that evolved around sites like Mission4Today, etc played a major role in keeping the original IL2 alive an going (strong) for such a long time.

 

I therefor ask the development team to at least reconsider their stance in regard to the upcoming BoS release as I can see lacking this key feature becoming a huge turn off for a lot of veteran players and eventually newer players alike.

 

Having a good generic campaign shipped with the game does only go as far when it comes to keeping people interested over a very long period of time.

 

If you feel the same, please show your support and get this noticed before development kicks off fully and it may be too late.

I enjoyed making my own missions with 1946.  The Rise of Flight editor's complexity puts a bottleneck on the amount of user-made content we get.  I'd like to have an editor where the user's imagination is the limiting factor.
