You mean the changes of the very much wanted pre-alpha-dx10 only- patch?

You couldn`t possibly know the exact changes in the engine. Please refrain from such comments as you`re misinforming others.

So you know for a fact they re-coded the gfx engine?

Do you know for a fact they didn't? are we all just supposed to believe what you say because you get angrier than every one else?

Decided its easier to 'ignore' you than read your fanboy drivel, arn't we allowed an opinion that differs from yours?

Then again, now your ignored I will never know, bet I still sleep well though..

BTW, the accepting of different opinions, which you are demanding, isn't your strong side, isn't it?

Sorry, a just had to get that out.

After the first two parches every graphics engine update involve removing and dumbing down features. I wouldn't call that improvement, specially since i kept loosing performance from beta to beta.

RickRuski 06-24-2012 11:06 PM

Can't complain about my frame rates, only the lack of smoothness (micro stutters) that I would like to see addressed. Guess those that want everything in cockpit controlable will always find something that they want fixed and some that play mainly online seem to be having some problems. My game play is only off line so I can't comment about online play. Just hope that the team get things sorted quickly to restore confidence back into the community, the longer it takes the further the downhill slide in confidence is for us.

Guys this argument about dumbing down is getting old and has been explained several times.

The core graphics engine was completely rewritten for the last beta patch which took several months of work.

This necessitated removing some of the add-on effects temporarily until the core was running as fast and smoothly as possible and to allow them to more easily identify core bugs.

The missing effects were never intentionally removed permanently, although as happens with development, some of them may not work to the satisfaction of the devs for quite some time.

So you may not see them all again soon, but rest assured the bulk of them will find their way back into the game when the core graphics engine has been refined. (which is very close)

And in closing.... if you guys cant discuss with some civility, then some of you will be getting infractions and the thread will be locked.

LAST WARNING!

I still play it every day for an hour or a little less but the enthusiast of the first IL2 is not there anymore.
I must also say I play nearly only the RAF side the nazi side does leave me with a strange taste.
And for the moment the greatest problems are in the RAF planes.
Now for the critics; great things are easy to criticize and COD is for the moment the top of the air combat simulation WW2 wise it is the topic of the game.
The fact the team creators of that game do still try to correct the game is the right sign that is a prove of good will and honesty also of vision of a future full of new modules or games.
Hope is life we all shall have a long life.:-P

Haven't played COD in 2 months, waiting same as most for the holy grail of a patch to turn COD from a "limited online small engagement over the coast with bugs and dodgy graphics, using models that resemble aircraft from the era" to a "Battle of Britain Sim".
