Storm of War update...

UPDATE 8th JAN

Despite the Team Fusion hotfix for the netcode, there remains an underlying issue as far as I can see with players reporting lag and banding and fps issues on both ATAG and ACG in anything from 40+ players. This is obviously no good for us.

While the SOW code has been successfully migrated and tested there remain significant issues that haven’t been addressed in the Blitz edition and nor has a full change log been forthcoming.

Most worryingly player numbers are much lower than competitor games despite the new release and the absolute requirement to use steam opposed to both BoX and DCS also being standalone products.

Storm of War will therefore be sticking to our original decision and will not be running a Cliffs of Dover Blitz server and campaign. (We will of course continue to keep up with any developments from Team Fusion and should the situation change we will rethink.)

In the meantime Storm of War are looking into running some events in DCS, in both the Korean and WW2 eras. Further info on these should be forthcoming in the next few weeks but it’s likely they will not occur until after the “merge” is finally released.

Shame, but not a surprise.

Shame, but will be interesting to see what they do with DCS
