All unlock conditions are decreased by 80% (i.e. original value divided by 5) except for the B17, "because it's special aircraft for community and we want to stay this aircraft as symbol of MP achievements." The conditions for the B17 have been decreased, but not by as much.
There have been no changes to the types of unlocks, so most unlocks remain MP-only.

Thank you very much for this, is it still approximately a month away from being released?

I hope that includes weapon load-outs too, because it's not the aircraft that are the problem to unlock...

Condition for unlock aircrafts were changed.

COOOoolll That's just so great :)

Condition for unlock aircrafts were changed. :
Normally it will be possible to unlock planes offline due to problems to access online games (well according to the other forum)

I like that the guns have been changed.

Too bad that won't work on the Avi8r though :(.

True didn't even think about the trigger. I don't even use my stick anymore. Maybe I will but I don't think it helps me fly any better.

I guess you will get machine gun fire with button barely pressed and both cannons and machine guns when pressed more?

I also just saw keyboard support. This is cool if they give us features in game to control more aspects of the plane with the keyboard, other than that I don't see why it would be a added feature.

That would make most sense. Used that on my PC joystick as well. Worked perfectly, you could use the machine guns to aim and the cannons to finish the job.
