let see some

[guiltyspark]

just took some video !

I even have an attempted landing !

let me upload it and stuff , BTW that noise you hear that sounds like a jet turbine is my case modded 360 with super fans!

[irrelevant]

I'm looking forward to this... being a lowly PS3 user and all. :P

C'mon peeps, start posting some vids! (thank you, guilty)

[guiltyspark]

first video is processing :grin:

first video is processing :grin:

I'm like the kid on Christmas who gets to watch all the other kids open their presents. I'm not sad because I know I get to open mine later, but this closely resembles torture. ;)

Edit: I think I just found your vid on youtube. LOL. I'm all over this!

Here is one, not mine

Why does he keep looking at the ground? HE SHOULD BE LOOKING UP IN THE SKY :P Don't worry, not your fault. I blame the pilot. :D

[irrelevant]

guys, that's guilty landing the plane! be nice! he was looking for the airfield.

and OMGOMGOMG! this game looks so unbelievably awesome! i can't wait for this!

[guiltyspark]

wow you guys already found it

[guiltyspark]

got another one coming

strafing bombers

[irrelevant]

thanks for the vid! i love the way the plane bounces when you land. now THAT is attention to detail.

i might be mistaken but i dont think there is a brake

I dont know how you can land planes without a brake

i got a PERFECT landing , but there was no break and i slid off the runway

its still processing , so give it a little bit for the quality to improve and the HD button to pop up

[xNikex]

I desperately need to get a flight stick right away.

It's just to hard to resist pulling the stick all the way back.

The first thing I did on simulator was go into a horrible spin and recovered just above the trees!

I am very happy that the game is a great challenge to master and is filled with very worthy oponents. I only had to bail out once in the campaign(by choice) since my engine performance was greatly reduced thanks to the new damage model.

The He-111's are very beautifully detailed but the view doesn't last long after the waist gunner starts firing at you.:)

I love the quotes in the loading screen as well. "Aim for the bomber's engines. It won't get far without them." LOL.

I cannot wait for the full game on September 15th.

[Spi]

wow you guys already found it

lol it was your video, sorry :cool:

[irrelevant]

That second vid was sweet. Man, I'm excited!

[Zensuji]

hold the left stick down and you'll brake to a complete stop....I landed in a field earlier (in sim) and found that out.

[peterdegrotere]

i landed it pretty soon its real easy, get of the gas, at last minute nose up and done

[Soviet Ace]

Hey those were some good shots on the He-111s. But I recommend this not just to you, but to everyone. Wait till your close to the enemy, and you have him good in your sights. Then let him have it, that's what I do and it always tears their plane up really good, and well you know the end :D

im still getting used to the gunnery , you cant really see the tracer fire as well as in the original

and every time i play the demo i have to restart it and begin on arcade again where the gunnery is balls

so its tricky to get used to it

[Anton Yudintsev]

Sorry, no saves, it's demo.
And we couldn't just allow user to start from simulation mode - average player will be lost and frustrated.
Won't be a problem in full game.

im not complaining about it , i understand

i dont think there has ever been a demo with saves

[Anton Yudintsev]

I think it is violation of TCRs. Demo should work equally on all systems - and Xbox Arcade doesn't have an HDD.

true
BTW tell the team they did an incredible job on the game

The arcade mode IMO is more engaging than Ace combat.

I can see good things coming for you guys , and i DO predict enough success for a sequel (wink wink)

And i know this is a weird question but if you do start on a sequal to it , could you give the community a survey or something to fill out about future features / tweaks they would like to see in the game and engine?

[Anton Yudintsev]

Nothing weird here.
Not sure about survey, but we definetly will take feedback in account.
From both hardcore flightsim (such as guys here, on forum) and casual players.

Hey Anton, do you think there will ever be a TRACK IR for the 360 or ps3 version...love this demo and love the il2 series on my computer with track ir and I miss it dearly on the xbox 360 version!!

totally understand that

BTW i really liked the tutorial mission , i like the way you desribed word for word on how the player is supposed to control the plane , detailing even simple turning.



I even learned something from its narrative ( i learned what WEP means , never knew before )



But i think there was a bug for me , it took forever for me to get past the loop part , i think the loop has to be perfectly streight

[guiltyspark]

Hey Anton, do you think there will ever be a TRACK IR for the 360 or ps3 version...love this demo and love the il2 series on my computer with track ir and I miss it dearly on the xbox 360 version!!

nope will never happen unfortunately

but the second best thing for 360 is the ace edge stick has a great analog stick on it for looking around

[Soviet Ace]

Don't worry. I understand where your coming from. I've had a hard time getting used to it as well. But I'm getting it.

Also Anton, you guys should make a Pacific one now. I'd love to get my hands on a F4F-3 Wildcat, to defend Wake Island. Same with a Buffalo. And don't forget the A6M2 Zero, needs to be there also.

Great job on the demo, and I know the real thing will be GREAT!!

[Anton Yudintsev]

TrackIR can (but it is VERY tricky) be on a PS3.
But both consoles will have cameras soon (PS3 already has PS eye), so it can be simulated.
But those cameras are not popular...

[versapak]

Yep, it will happen. It won't be TrackIR, but the 360 will have Natal, which is their motion tracking camera, and head tracking is just one of many ways they can implement Natal into traditional gaming.

Whether or not developers implement it is another question, but the technology will definitely be there on the 360 in a major way. MS is talking about launching Natal as if they were launching a new system.

Exactly.
But it is not launched yet.

[Kamak86]

Anyone else figure out that you get little achivement cards if you do a specfic maneuvers? like a Split-S and Barrel Roll and Emelmann(sp)...i dunno how many there are...its a challenge!!

Ive done the Split-s Barrel roll and Emelmann

You make a good point about the camera (esp 360 one), that would be a perfect setup for view control with the added bonus of not wearing anything goofy.

I had to read what you guys were saying before i played...

70% complete....SO GDAMN PUMPED!


nice vids guilty

[irrelevant]

Anyone else have some vids they'd like to share? Keep us PS3 gamers entertained, please. ;)

[Satyricon]

Also Anton, you guys should make a Pacific one now.

You're terrain mapping would be much easier.

That's a nice touch, but the planes seem to get shot down too easily...and the thick black smoke is so unrealistic :confused: Still, really looking forward to the demo on PSN :grin:

Belly landing from outside? Proper dogfight? Just suggestions.

i dont think that belly landings can be done in this game

im not sure , i can try

and i did a dogfight last night , but it was in arcade , cool none the less

air conditioning?

[haitch40]

oh nuts my sister is in police so im screwed :P

[Satyricon]

Not sure how challenging the Dogfighting will be - all of the AI is well below 10,000 feet. Besides - you get more intense action when there's flesh and blood flying your opponent.

[haitch40]

air conditioning?

air con in a spitfire ahh man it would clear the sweat from my head

[elneilios]

air con in a spitfire ahh man it would clear the sweat from my head

Spits have this feature already..... pull back the canopy to turn it on :grin:

No not air con, Air Craft. Sorry should have been more specific !

[philip.ed]

Very nice video. My only quandry is that the planes seem to get shot down too easily. I know that cannons are effective, but I can't recall having that many good results from il-2 1946...

[P-51]

Yes but i think he is on arcade.

[sasquatch]

I'm not sure if it is set up differently for arcade mode versus sim mode but it seemed like I had a much tougher time bringing planes down in sim mode than I did in arcade. Seemed like there was more bullet arc and the enemy was tougher...but again, it could have just been me having a tougher time flying and lining up the shot.

Arcade mode has auto-aim and simplified arcade damage points both. In realistic and sim modes you need to hit vital part of aircraft (pilots, engine, and so on) or destroy aerodynamic surface by enough damage (hard to perform in fact, especially on large bombers). In arcade mode you can hit vitals too, but also on some certain hits enemy falls too (like common hitpoints, depends on where you hit an enemy too)
And of course it is much harder to aim and handle on realistic and sim modes.

He-111 in the begining of war was very unprotected in fact. What was his real defence is poor RAF tactics (they flight with three pilots in a wing, not pairs, and had no experience) and gunners. Gunners are not effective in destroying fighters. Gunners are effective to protect them. It is hard to concentrate get close aim and fire, when you are under fire.
We have noticed in multiplayer that experinced virtual ace is much more effective on He-111 then unexperieced on spitfire or other fighters, even in common dogfight!

Truth is that common bomber (not highly protected like Il-2, Il-10, Stuka or Flying Fortress for example) usually were put down by 1,5-2,5 salvo (less then a 2 seconds of fire) in a fire distance.
He-111 in the begining of war wasn't protected enough to withstand fire even from 12mm bullets from 400-600 yards. Of course it is hard to hit target in 600 yards. If you dont have autoaim :)

[OntheCrab]

Thanks for the explanation, Kirill.
That makes sense, I noticed that the damage model was tougher on realistic. Once you move on from Arcade the game smacks the purse out of your hand!

The production team has spoken! Two Yudintsevs are better than one.....less typing for Anton. :)

[Kirill Yudintsev]

Thnx

Just a bit more time now.

[sasquatch]

Yes, thanks a lot Kirill!

[philip.ed]

Thanks for the info. Could I ask, is it easier to shoot the AI down than it is for them to shoot you down? So if you were in a 1 v 1 dogfight, the ai pilot might be shooting at you for a while causing damage yo your plane, but you get on his tail for a few seconds and blow him to kingdom come...:confused:

On Arcade mode you have much more chances. Your flightmodel is much more easy to control as well as your engine power is much more that AI has. Also you have autoaim on your side and damages of your aircraft doesn't affect your handling or anything else.
Your speed is usually higher that means that AI has difficulties to aim.
On other side AI on arcade mode is the same as on realistic or simulator, and even weaker - he is taken 'arcade' damage - as well as 'realistic'.

[Spitfire23]

i dont think that belly landings can be done in this game

im not sure , i can try

Yeah its possible, ive been doing some extensive testing on the damage model and landing the plane in many different way.

I once even landed the spit on that large runway with a hole blown in both wings, a hole in the tail section, bullet holes in the canopy, huge chunks in the elevators, jammed flaps and no propellor.

alot of the time your plane will explode after screaching to halt when doing a belly landing but i would recommend dropping your speed to approx 100-110 Mph - (Note: Mph not Kmph) and bringing the belly of the aircraft to a gentle touchdown, you may lose a wing but youre still alive ;)

[Orange Power T]

I'll try to help Guilty by posting some videos. For those that have not seen it this id the intro video on the demo.

I'll get some gameplay videos up later. I'm just having a hard time on realistic and sim with a controller. Got to buy a stick that will work on 360 now. :)

How about some of the tutorial.

I have to ask, I have seen oil splatter up on the screen in Third person Arcade but I haven't seen oil splatter on the canopy in first person, does this happen?

When you say first person, do you mean cockpit? if so the answer is Yes, if its your own oil it stays there permanantly but if its from a bomber infront of you it splatters on cockpit canopy and then washes away with the wind

@ thatyounggameguy: think you could make longer videos? I love the music you currently use in each video, but they are so short I'm left feeling a little disappointed. I would much rather see a three minute video with that music.

Great video's i can't wait to play this i need a flight sim fix.
