PS3 patch 1.01 live
only 12mb too
|
seriously? that's great news! the work day is going to be looooooooong...
|
Geez FINALY. Now the 360 patch can be released.
Let us know how much better the multiplayer is now the crashes count as kills. How quickly in a turn does the red/black out occur now? |
Does this affect the tournament in any way? Regardless I can't wait to see how the new P-51 performs.
|
Now let's hope MS doesn't get in the way :).
Let's hear some comments about the patch. |
Tearing Issue
SCREEN TEARING IS FIXED AS PROMISED!!!!
Much better. The look around fps are now not as smooth as 360 but the tearing is a thing of a past. Worth the wait on that alone!!!!!!!!!:) EDIT I shouldn't have been so hastey. Got 5 minutes into the flight, climbed up to 10,000 ft & for some reason it's now tearing as bad as before. GUTTED!!! |
hows the p-51 now?
|
OMFG!!!! YES!!!! OMG!!!! YES!!!!
When I saw this, I think I cried a little. (jk, but it adds to effect XD) |

Come on guys we need FEEDBACK!!!
P-51 ?? Crashes are kills ? Red/Black outs on sim? FW190?????????? |

Red outs and blackouts are now very quick to appear and go close to total red/black in sim mode when you start getting aggressive with the controls. Not managed a total redout or blackout but I've only been on for 5 mins or so..
I'm a little puzzled coz I use a HOTAS and I still can't look to my six... Am I doing something wrong or do I have to go into the custom layout? The zoom feature seems to zoom in closer, most of the screen tearing seems to be fixed. Not been online with it yet.. |
aww man :(
no patch for America yet, I tried using a UK account to download the patch but to no effect. We will probably get it by 6 pm |

Just this feature will definitely change the way MP is played. What about adding different peripherals has anyone tried a pc flight stick? I hope my MS sidewinder works, if someone can hook up a mouse and or keyboard and let us know how easy it is to assign buttons that would be great. |

Patch test description
You guys will love this:
* did not noticed screen tearing yet * control custumization is great (about 5 new options for control setup, option for PC stick (my old logitech extreme3d works lol) - Every button on the controller can be assigned whatever you want * Flak is great, you feel the blast, it moves your plane. I got shot down by bullets from a ship, but the flak damaged a Bf 109 that I was chasing, he started smoking. * no cockpit view for BF 10's or fw 190's - p-51D-5 cockpit was not fixed (still has p-47) *P-51 now flies better than the bf 109 (you can really notice this in turns) * Fw 190 was slightly fixed, I think the p-51 turns a little better, and the gun platform way more stable than fw 190. * blackouts are good, I have not gotten completely balcked out, but blackouts are there on both cockpit and virtual views (this is good news for me) * I will try red outs, and machine and cannon separation in a bit. (any other requests for things that I may check?) |

QQ the P-51 should be the HANDS down best plane in the game :( |

man, i wish i was home right now. would love to be playing with you guys...
edit: i really hope the 109/190 cockpits come as DLC in the future. |

more patch test info
P-51D vs SpitIX
(p-51 won, but in a turning fight the spit will win by small difference now, the difference can be compared to that of a yak3 vs la5) Blackouts play an important role (you will notice them a lot, fun fun fun), redouts are less frequent but are there. Online points 1 kill = 5 points, 1 death = -1 point - crash no kill problem still there but is less frequent |
Quote:
Although personally disappointed by this, the custom layouts, flak, black & redouts are great. A worthy effort in need of praise & worth the wait!!!! |
If resulting framerate is less, than 30, V-sync automatically toggles off (than coming on back again). This was made to make MP dynamics as fast, as possibly.
However, in title update framerate is also improved, most of times - at least +15-20% |

You can now assign anything to the keyboard :)
I love it, brings me il2 1946 flashbacks :D |

I've only played on sim so far and the damage/crash=kill doesn't seem to be working. I was downed a few times with shots to my wings and rudder but it didn't register as a kill. Perhaps the affected plane-part has to turn black to count? I'll try some of the other modes to see if it's more apparent. (Also, after your first online match is over you're met with a slew of unlocks :-P) |
Haven't tried a mouse but 1 thing I noticed, when in cockpit view sim mode if you use the d-pad to look it no longer looks at the outside of your plane instead it pans from the inside!
I will try my new multi touch apple mouse it is bluetooth. EDIT: Sweet even the apple mouse works. Left click and you can look everywhere, let off the button and view returns to center. Killer. |
Custom ZOOM on SIM
Does anyone know why there are two Zoom Cameras on the customise Pad screen?
Everything seems to be mapping ok but not the Zoom Camera (when playing on SIM mode). |

First off, I'd like to thank the devs for all their hard work and their patience for torture from all of us and the publishers :-P Anyway, the P-51D was a little better. It feels like the Spitfires are easiest to blackout in, but they feel more unstable... kinda weird since the 109 never seems to go into spin, though WWII pilots found it very unstable. Something I find very important is that the zoom button will NOT WORK if re-assigned. I assigned it to down on the Dpad, tried square, etc. Nothing works except the default L2. There's also 2 options for zoom as well for some reason. I think the control list lists all the controls in all three modes. I think that controller setups should be split between sim, realistic, and arcade because there are double options for a bunch of things. |

Hey guys I tested out all the layouts they have 4 defaults now. I believe Gaijin got it right with layout 3 it is just like wireless AV8R layout except now rudder is L2 and R2 and throttle is L1 and R1 and you can set throttle to what ever you want it.
This will be my choice with pad and I should say you should try this. To look you just move right stick and to get different views click it. D-pad does Rockets bombs and flaps Square zooms X guns triangle commands to flight ? I haven't tried this one yet o map the only thing is there is no trim button |
Quote:
|
I believe Deadzone on the AV8R is fixed but the rudder problem is still there either on or off.
And the adjustment of the dead zone works great as well. On another note, I landed the first time successfully using the AV8R stick and on sim... No tipping over! yay! |
I can't wait to play it with the patch! :)
Finally! |
If only there was a workaround where SIM players could use a controller layout like default layout 3 but have easier access to the zoom when viewing around the cockpit as it's very difficult reaching for the square button when say, viewing your 9 O'clock position whilst manouevring.
The zoom ideally needs to be on the L3 (thumbstick click) for a perfect layout for the SIM player using the pad. |

sweet!:) Now bring on the 360 patch! I haven't played this game in almost a month (too many other awesome releases), but I'm ready to jump back in with the patch hopefully.
|
so pleased the flak is fixed. Does it blow up the plane in one hit? Or do bits blow off, e.g. wings, tail section etc.
|
Quote:
And I'm really looking forward to trying the "patched" version of the FW-190, that plane is just so bad-assed :cool: |
Quote:
|
Awesome! Thanks, that zoom in works wonders.
If only we could map it to our own buttons because now I'm having trouble trimming the plane while maneuvering. Oh well, not like WWII pilots could really maneuver well while trimming (if they were crazy enough to trim while fighting!). But wow, that helps a lot. Now I just have to get used to the controls. |
Thanks to Anton & Co. for coming through, can't wait until the 360 gets it!
Does this mean we won't have to see any more "The Patch Is Never Coming Out!!!!!" conspiracy theory threads on this forum:-) |

Didn't check that! Sounds awesome! Thanks!!!! |
Real planes!
The blackout/redout is SO GOOD that there is no way anybody's gonna be turning 10 to 12-second circles in any plane. They've got it back to the realistic 19 seconds. Pull max-g even at 300kph, and your pilot goes blind. One major disappointment, you still can't set l2 and r2 to be rudder pedals as an axis. They still work only as buttons, where rudder is either full-on or full-neutral. You have to reset the trim a lot more often as it is more drastically affected by speed and AOA now. The tipping-on-landing problem appears solved, at least for the fw-190 which I landed in training mode. I still haven't bothered to go online - it took some getting used to just fighting two fw-190's with an la5. |

AM I SERIOUSLY THE ONLY SIM PLAYER THAT'S BEEN CALLING FOR A NON-CLICKABLE RIGHT STICK LOOK AROUND FUNCTION ASWELL AS A WORKABLE ZOOM?????
Can no one find a work around with this so-called total customizable mapping feature? As trk29 has documented, the best SIM pad layout is the default 3 map but the zoom is on the square button & so is completely impractible to use when scanning around or manouevring etc. I have spent the evening copying that otherwise workable map to the custom page & wish to put the zoom to the L3 (thumbstick click as this is redundant on SIM in this map) but whatever is attempted, the f****** zoom (the most wanted mappable button for SIM players with pads)will NOT register, no matter what button you assign zoom to (but will register in arcade & realistic, the modes that don't even require this due to the padlock view). I have tried disabling one zoom button (as the map contains 2 zoom slots & 2 target cam slots), then the other, & even mirroring the same button to both zooms but IT WILL NOT WORK. This was the only button needed for SIM players who wanted the dedicated Rightstick look around & it's beyond frustration that, still, it is the only function that can't be customized. PLEASE HELP. I'm hoping it's just me missing something stupid here!!!:( |

- this plane turns better now for sure * the P-51 can now keep up with a Spit (I tried this), the spit can still out turn the p-51 but not by much - P-51 I think, is now among the top 3-5 best planes on this game * I kept the same sensibility for these planes, they still spinout if you lower the sensibility but kept the same they turn way better |
How about the other planes that were crocked before (full of fuel?).
Bf110 and the P-51B (hasn't had its name corrected to Mustang Ia with 4 cannons by any chance? I was probably hoping for too much there.) |
Unfortunately, you are indeed hoping for too much.
It, like the P-51D has been kept exactly the same in terms of looks and name. Yea, I'm personally impressed with the P-51D's new handling. It still seems like a beast to fly, but it DOES turn tighter. I don't think it's that close to a Spitfire in the turn, but it certainly feels a little better. I wasn't able to test the speed though. Did the P-51D get any faster? It's supposed to pull more than 350 mph @ SL with no WEP. :? |
Quote:

The P51 is certainly capable in terms of handling, but as armaments go its like a neutered Hurricane.

Also its nothing like the zoom a telescope or binoculars have. I see the zoom button more like a consentrate button. I imagine the pilot leaning forward slightly and scwinting his eyes to make out planes in the distance. Its quite realistic. |
