TK是sf系列制作人。
问了tk几次，终于回答了，

As you are going to complete the line of SF2 series soon, I wonder what would we expect after that.
The full line of SF2 cost only more than 1year to complete, compare to the original SF series. I'm quite sure you are not just going to rest and sell SF2 for another 7 years. [s:6]
TK:
Er, not sure what you mean, we're not close to "completing" SF2 series, we haven't even released any new games in the series yet, we're just finishing up the initial conversion/upgrade from SF1. We're thinking the next 5 new titles, at least, will be in SF2 series, and exactly when we go to SF3 depends on how fast technology and the market move. [s:6]
Modern planes are a lot more expensive to do, so if we ever do them, they'll only have a single new player plane each, not 3 new planes. And if we ever do Korean War game (or Desert Storm game), they'll have to be done over multiple titles, each with only 3 or less new player planes (like we're doing with FE on WWI), they're simply too big for us do the whole thing in one game. And most likely, we'll be doing other titles to build up the plane set before that.
我：
good TK, I got what exactly I wanted to know.
So, SF2 is not just going to cover the old titles of SF1 but we are to see something new!
moneywise, I can see Fulkland war to be a good new title as most of the involved aircrafts are available already.
Engine-wise, will SF3 inherite the existing code of SF2 engine, or will we see something completely fresh?
TK：
Well, we think SF3 will inherit SF2 code, as it doesn't makes any sense for us to be spending a lot of money on writing base code completely fresh (which would take at least 2 years)... but we're talking 4-7 years from now, so we'll never know for sure. For all we know, PC might go the way of dodos by then, and we might be all working on PlayStation 16 ;)
We're passing on doing Falklands until that "other" Falklands game is out, to give them breathing space on their own. We have plenty of other conflicts/aircraft that we want to do in the mean time ;)
