Thank you for the screens, look awesome...

Oleg, what about an "all the year" calendar in the next post?

..That's why the Luftwaffe lost the Battle of Britain, they only used midget pilots!

Oleg give a resize to the pilots please

Thank you Oleg.

GREAT UPDATE!!!

I have to say, the 109''s look GREAT! As does the rest of the screenshots!
For me, the 2nd picture in the first post with the hurricane looking up at the burning heinkels is the prettiest! Fire and smoke effects look brilliant!!

And once again, thank you for discussing the update with us

If you are still reading the forums Oleg, I have an easy question for you :

Are there more than 1 fire type/size in the game?

In IL-2 we have "Engine: On fire!" and "Fuel tank: On fire!"

Will there be more advanced fires in IL-2 Cliffs of Dover? Can a fire start small and then burn bigger and bigger?

If you could answer these questions about fire it would mean a lot to me!

I feel like I have seen smaller fires in screenshots, and this one with the hurricane looks like a complete fireball (all fueltanks are seriously burning).

Very nice screens! The product looks good from what we see here and in the other announcements of recent. It will be a beautiful day when I have my hands on this.. and I won't be looking out the window to check the weather I promise you!

Brilliant!..I have total confidence in this work...I am also always totally amazed at every picture or video we are privaledged to get from the crew and would like to thank them for liasing with the IL2 community in a way that is unprecedented in the gaming/sim world.

My first and only ask is this:

I agree with most about the 'yellow nose' bf109s being too new and bright looking and as yet I haven't seen one with the full weather worn distress that Luthier has mention in previous threads. I did see his initial post with his explanation of why however the picture he included was not of a distressed yellow nose but of the plain Bf109 and it was a menu picture of low detail.

So is there any chance of seeing a picture of a fully distessed and weather worn 'yellow nose' Bf109 actually ingame?

Thank you crew

...lew...

I would really like to see some crashes, still great update.

I also agree with the 109's noses being too bright, it's almost a dutch medical chopper:
