A few questions regarding SP, AI, FM reviews

[Broadside]

Since BoS is based on the DN engine that RoF uses, I've got a couple of questions about some of the limitations of the DN engine that RoF has run into:

 

(these questions are primarily based on Single Player as I have little to no interest in MP):

 

1-- Will there be a Single Player campaign?  Not like RoF, which is a series of missions connected together with no story/little background/etc, but an actual campaign more like

Red Baron 3D?

 

2 -- Will the AI be smarter than the RoF AI (which is mostly poor, and no real challenge)?

 

3 -- Will the AI be based on new programming or a reusing of the RoF AI (obviously something has to be done, since these are faster airplanes and have much different mechanics, but just changing these and not making the AI smarter and having more options means basically the same AI)?

 

4 -- Will FM reviews be made if needed, or will the released planes be "as is".

 

Thanks!

Anyone have any idea on these questions? 

There must be some information on these subjects, as they are pretty much deal breakers for single player pilots.

the DN engine is an upgrade in IL2, eventually the ROF will get the DN 2.0 upgrade. watch the Hooves video.

Thank you for the replies.

read thru most of the forum 

Sure seems this'll be a fun sim (I'm a biplane fan, and hated IL-2....loaded it, patched it, deleted it same day).  I'm still on the fence....just dont know what the sp campaign will be about (dynamic, or static, missions connected to each other like RoF--which isnt much fun--or a campaign that has some life to it).

I'm a real believer in the 777 boys, just not 1C 

 

If I knew this would benefit RoF, then it'd be a no brainer.

Jason said the improvements made to the DN engine for BOS should filter down to ROF.

Check development updates 20 and 21 to learn more about the campaign

I think LOFT said in some interview (maybe the one on youtube) that FM wont be changed, just minor corrections if needed. They are trying to get them as right as possible for the release.
