    New YouTube homepage video - featuring voice over by former Dr Who Colin Baker

    Hi All,

    Hope everyone is excited to hear that IL-2 Sturmovik Desert Wings - Tobruk is coming out this northern hemisphere summer.

    Our plan this week is to update you on the campaigns and single missions coming with the release.

    We have also updated our YouTube home video, which let's you know who Team Fusion Simulation is and also a request to subscribe to our channel. If you haven't already, we would appreciate it if you could.

    We are incredibly lucky to have former Dr Who, Colin Baker, a great supporter of Team Fusion Simulations provide the voice over for this video.

    If you haven't checked out this video, please take a minute (literally) to check it out.

    Thanks again to Colin and Chris Weeks who recorded Colin for us.

    And a special nod to ATAG_Marlow for his assistance. Thanks legend.



    Cheers,

    Pattle

    gonna be picky - Colin Baker's voice alone is enough - dont really think he needs to be introduced as "former Dr Who". Thats the kind of thing you do when your advertising that he's appearing your town's local pantomime.

    GUYS, the hits keep comming!
    Colin Baker aye? Talk about some epic blast from the past! From the originals There's just something about those couple of TV shows from last century and going onward from, that were just so....full of spirit I guess, its great to hear a voice from them again, and close to home too!!!
    Feels odd being a milenial and saying that...but with my upbringing I guess, I just really feel it..
    A bit over the moon right now, that is SO fantastic!!!!

    Just another tidbit...For those old folks that have been around since 2001 I think to see this sim still going strong..almost 20 years.. really means something special. Who knew

    Pattle did it for plonkers like me that have heard of the Dr Who TV series (it’s famous, don’tcha know!) but, until now, not being a regular viewer, had no idea who Colin Baker is. I’ve posted the YouTube link to my personal Facebook page. Very few of my FB friends are sim enthusiasts, but I wager many of them know of, or would recognize, Colin Baker and his distinctive voice as Dr Who. What a great way to get the uninitiated - to flight sims - to watch an eye-catching video!

    I flew the demo at 640x480 pixels for at least two weeks before the boxed game first arrived at the local pc game shop, but I cannot find evidence of my involvement any earlier than 30 April 2002... It took me a couple of months to find out it was possible to take a screenshot and how to use the FMB to lay down a lot of truck convoys, thinking it would give me lots of stuff to shoot at... but that worked both ways!

    It is pretty awesome to still be advancing this game. Well done TFS!

    I only wished sims were as popular as they were then. Imagine how they could have developed if the market and money was still there. What we have is still better than what the reality says we should have though so im very grateful for that.

    I have not intended to be disrespectful to Colin Baker and hope i havent come across that way. That someone trained to use their voice has done something for TFS is great. But when you speak of "distincitve voices" then its Tom Baker (for good and bad) who is generally associated with that. And far beyond Dr Who too. In fact you can barely watch an insurance comparision site ad in the UK without hearing him (or Matt Berry).

    I just dont think the product needs to make a big play of its use of celebrity voice overs i guess. That a professional has done it and done it very well is probably enough. Enough also to casually drop in "oh thats Colin Baker" if someone asks.

    I guess i just dont do starstruck

    Anyhow - great vid.

    Gotta go now. I got Bono and Lady Gaga round to look at me new self closing bog seat at half four.

    Very early demo days. 9./JG52 Stigler made me that Anton Hackl skin and did a beautiful job. I still have it somewhere. I think me chasing Pope is the first screenshot I took

    Never heard about 1C Online Games, this is also mentioned in official announcement from Jason. On the other hand in the video you see the logo of 1C Games Studios and not 1C Online Games.

    Great video and made me think maybe The Doctor could also do some voice acting to help upgrade the current voice offering for SP ?
