Blitzen Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 Purchase of Desert Wings Tobruk went smoothly & quickly thru the Official Il-2 Store & I have my license key,but when I went down my list of purchases & found the record of the purchase it seemed to indicate I could download the game as well.I hit download in all the right place & immediately got a exe , but it seemed to be for Great Battles, with no indication it might include Desert Wings. I didn't hit 'Install"- should I? Previous post seemed to indicate I will still have to wait a week until it appears in Steam & then enter my License key. My question is obvious what do I do now? Hit the GB exe& have Desert Wings to play now or patiently wait until next Thursday?
DD_FT- Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 It does say 'PRE-order', so I guess you need to wait a bit indeed... From the store page: "This is a Steam key enabled product." "Desert Wings requires Steam and Cliffs of Dover base game to run. After purchase, you will receive a key to activate the game on Steam."
Beazil Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) Tobruk is an expansion for IL2 Cliffs of Dover: Blitz. It requires a copy of Cliffs of Dover (updated to Blitz) to play. It is a separate product line in the IL2 Franchise from the Great Battles series. A bit confusing, I know. Blitz/Tobruk uses a different engine than Great Battles. I hope that helps. Oh, and it's pre purchase. Release is August 6. Edited July 30, 2020 by JG51_Beazil

Yes-I’ve had BlitzCloD installed since day 1...but from all indications so far I’ll have to wait until next week,I guess.The GBexe threw me a curve tho. 1

Taxman Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 Look at Missionbug's topic above. Read Thaddeus-Darwin post, gives the instructions. I have not tried it yet, will do it later.
