Excellent, now where's the version that has a busty female commander popping out and showing us how gravity affects her assets?

This is really impressing, the level of detail is continuing to amaze me.
But I am really starting to wonder if this game will come out this year.

Sorry, but I can't agree with HFC_Dolphin...

I don't want a half-finished, in a rush put together flight sim. I simply don't understand the whole fuss about the release date

Stay patient - and after some more time you'll get the best flight sim you've ever seen! For my part: Nice Update, Oleg! Keep up the outstanding work!

Thanks for the update Oleg, love the wobbly aerials

I've been playing IL2 and waiting patiently just as long as he has. The difference is I understand that good things take much time to develop. I'm prepared to wait as long as it takes because I'm confident you'll deliver.

Please keep the updates coming. They are appreciated and the contact with you and the team is important, however little you feel you can show us.

Oleg, as a software developer I understand how incredibly frustrating it is to read negativity when there's absolutely nothing negative to talk about. I for one am happy to see these updates and very much appreciate them! I will keep flying IL2 until SoW is ready. Please don't stop posting these.

Amazing attention to detail

Thanks!

(on the positive side though, I do like the battle-damaged Heinkel, and the armoured car 'antennae wobble' is cool.)

But, a few weeks ago, when the Russian TV team were visiting the 1C offices it was mentioned that the you were in process of replacing the 'placeholder' textures on the BOB map with 'final' textures. Ever since I've been hoping to see an inflight screenshot showing the results. (understand that tweaking, etc may be ongoing and that given reaction to previous WIP work you may want to wait until a more 'polished' result is achieved.)

But the question that I'm still desperate to get answered is: is the plan still to have the game out for the 70th anniversary of the battle?

Oleg is right.

first we complain when there are no updates, then we complain when there are updates. He can't win.

Yes, of course, the waiting is killing us all, but my honest opinion is it will be worth the wait.

I have faith in Oleg and I don't think there is anyone else trying to do this at anywhere near this level.

Rock on my son!

The movement of the antennas is amazing, this is exactly this kind of details who transform a good sim in a great sim. Devil in the details, maybe, but heaven too, at least for our hobby

Btw, the very good modeling of this "Pan-Pan" makes me imagine a tank sim during the Bataille de France !

I love the matt and weathered paint work on that 111. I don't think any other sim has managed to get the colors so real and life like. Just think of the movies you could create with an engine like this. I can just see that bomber sitting in a corn field with smoking engines - fantastic.

Wake up people. Who else is going to give us stuff like this? Remember, good things come too those who wait........
