Yes. That is enough for the next couple of years if to speak about online gameplay and amount of aircraft in air.

One note for all: I have changed a bit the dev update text. Please pay attention.

I'm sorry, till mid of the next week I'm unable to spend my time for the answers.
Here in Russia we are preparing all-Russia national Il-2 cup... I'm totally busy.... I'm sorry that it isn't world cup.... But sure/hope in future we will see SoW world cup :)
Till next week.

Looking great! thanks for the vid:grin:

Very tantalizing glimpse!

NEVADA DISPENSARIES

u must be kidding? it's a HUGE difference.. I dont know what kind of IL2 u fly, but the one I am flying is far from this quality... lighting, smoothness, shadows.. the lot

Wow, that looks really great...

I like the detail at distance and the smooth transition in as you get closer...much smoother then we are used to. Also the shadows look really good...reflections off the glass look real.

Just ONE QUESTION (if you get to it)... The AI pilots dont seem to be moving and looking around at the attacking aircraft. Will they be animated in the final release?

Thank You, and have a good Easter!!!

Stunning video, thanks a million for this easter egg!

And in the middle of all this WIP mayhem in every sentence I think the only part which needs work are the tracers and lack of bullet holes, for the rest I'd be quite happy with this quality for the final release.

And anyone who says this isn't a quantum leap from IL2 needs to have his medication checked.

Simply amazing update, thank god Oleg, BUT where is the sound? :D:D

The muzzle flash one the Spits were huge, but this is WIP, I know :-P

The propeller dynamics were great, and pretty smooth. It's also nice to see little puffs of dust, paint, and metal flakes coming off the Dornier's skin when hit by the .303s. :grin:

And let's talk about the opening shot! Wow!! The detail of humans is top notch, and from a good eye level perspective, giving a nice sense of scale. Evening lighting looks great as well.

This especially caught my eye:

From here it looks like we are no longer seeing the old 2-D fire balls. And just look at how far the smoke stays suspended in the air! Also take note of the offset camera angle: In Il-2 the Bf-109 would take the center of the frame.

Great update! To me it looks like it's nearly ready.

Aww, give little Tree a break...he probably doesn't see any difference. This is just the reason why so many game makers "over saturate" the look of their new releases with the latest "gee wiz" DX enhancements. The game makers try and hit us over the head with an over the top panorama of dazzling effects...this tactic tends to impress the average game player.

Jeez, calm down girls, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I did say in my post that i recognise how good the lighting is, but the overaul feel for me is still Il2-ish, but like i said its still a WIP. No doubt when we see it in all its glory in directX 11 it will look stunning. Now put your hand bags down. :-P
