We certainly don't... but we still need some answers!

[Feldgrun]

I’m just curious what the next big project is. Then we can spend countless hours speculating about how good or bad we think it’ll be.

To be honest, I just don't care what the next project is now... all I want to know is will it be compatible with current content.

Same here, as long as it's compatible with the current series, whatever they make I'm gonna buy and I'm sure it'll be fun.

What's not gonna happen is that I'm gonna start following a new series and wait 9 years to still not have an Allied bomber, wait 5 years for a contact altimeter and so on.

 

Have a nice day.

The one impression I had was the fact that it will not be compatible. 
I was pretty sure about that until you guys messed with my head and doubled the confusion. Anyway. One can still use content

There is 0% chance that next project is something not compatable with hat we have now.

Some of you guys are reading too much into what they said, while discarding what they did say.

You apparently don’t have it.

I’ll admit there’s some things I’m not clear on as well…but I’m not worried about existing content at this juncture.

[BlitzPig_EL]

I really don't think the Team is as daft as some of you make them out to be.

 

They are not going to toss out years of previous work, in fact I'll take a guess that a fair portion of what we have now will show up in the next installment, whatever it might be.

[Trooper117]

No one is saying they are daft... it would be nice to have a little clarification that's all...

[Niagara]

Judging by the latest  ( 1CGS OFFICIAL MEDIA ) Release , the next project is a complete series of Calendars ,  The next teaser drop will have half naked WWII pilots stretched out on bear skin rugs. on the tarmac next to their aircraft on hot standby ..  and it will be compatible with IL2 BOX   ..

For the record, I never thought it'd be a stupid idea to start a new engine. Nor is it an insult to the team or to the BoX series to factually acknowledge that it has (seemingly) insoluble flaws, such as time dilation.

 

Therefore, when I interpreted some dev comments as a sign they were moving on to another engine, it was an observation made neither as an insult nor one made with resentment. 

 

Long story short:

 

If they do make a new engine, I could understand why they felt it was necessary.

 

If they don't make a new engine, I could understand why they felt it was necessary.

 

There are many reasons to move to a new engine, and many reasons not to. Whichever decision they make, there will be plenty of justification for it either way.

Some visionary news (but not officially) about a new project in the IL-2 series from Albert. Don't forget to switch to English subtitles ?

... and yes it will be a <new game>, not DLC or "remaster" ?

I asked that question months ago, Wardog (bless him, hope he's ok) even sent the question up the chain so we could get an answer, and all it needed was a yes or no... they didn't bother to reply.

 

[=FB=BeholderRUS]

I believe that the final version has not yet been selected by the developers, while we can say that it will be a new game (no information about the theater of operations), a modified graphics engine and effects, a new game interface, but what is the main idea (gameplay) has not yet been answered. At least the game will not be the same as the current IL-2 series, where we essentially have <one game mode>.

p.s. hope that there will be more changes than between MS FS and MS FS 2024 ?

[Chief_Mouser]

Had to turn that off after ten minutes. I don't suppose the auto-translate helped but it just appeared to be two guys arguing about somebody else and moaning about Microsoft. Six months since the last English livestream; I don't hold out a lot of hope for anything soon, and to be honest, by now I don't really care.

[ITAF_Rani]

Many months without any news about IL2 future...

[FuriousMeow]

The future of Il-2 is that its still playable and can be continued to be played regardless of whatever other project is being worked on. There's new collector planes and FC3 coming down the pipeline, with other fixes.

[LukeFF]

Guys, I'm just going to say it again - work on the next project is well underway and will be announced when the team is ready to announce the news. Until then, to quote a famous American author:

 

[Trooper117]

This version of GB is still playable for sure, but let's face it, apart from the extra stuff for FC, some collector planes and the odd map, it's pretty much dead in the water... and when the new stuff is announced they won't be spending a vast amount of time and effort progressing it forward.

I haven't got a problem with that, and just like the old IL2 1946 it will continue to be playable for years to come.

They never answer my questions either! I can't understand it. Don't they know who I am!

I’m putting my bets that on July 9th for the 80th anniversary of Operation Husky the announcement for the next installment will be made.

[simfan2015]

So we now (think to-) know it wil be e NEW game.

My attention is (solely) towards the existing il-2 and its future.

I will begin to "worry" about that "new" game once it gets announced.

Still too much life in Il-2 GB as well as CloD Tobruk (in VR ... as I finally got access, thanks Buzzsaw).

No need to worry about anything... this version will still be playable. The new version will require a complete mindset change I'll bet.

The Italian Campaign from September 1943 to 1945, but nothing was stated that Sicily couldn’t be done.
