1C Team Questions and Requests (closed)

Type of improvement:

Revert to the old method of track recording where the track was recorded whether the player wanted it to or not BUT at the end of the mission the player could choose whether to save the track or discard it. Currently if you forget to start the track recording, you have no-way of saving it

Explanation of Proposal:

Currently the player has to start a mission and then remember to start recording. Many times I have played a mission, got some excellent strafing attacks or kills and then realised I hadn't started recording.

Benefits:

no more frustration at ending a mission only to realise that there is no way of reviewing your mistakes or enjoying your moments of skill just because you forgot that the track needs to be manually started recording. This would also mean that many tracks showing the glory of the game could be shared and turned into short films without the frustration of forgetting to record.

Type of improvement:
Main Menu

Explanation of proposals:
Please allow menu music playing in each menu section

Benefits:
at the moment music is only playing in the two upper meny levels. when navigating backwards to main manu the music is changing. this is a ugly interruption. For those who use more and different music it would be nice if music could be played without interruption as long one navigates through all menu pages.

Type of improvement:
Better co-op multiplayer

Explanation of proposals:
Currently you can get in the same plane with your buddy with using a bug. (greate two different planes and then other one goes back to the lobby and can suddenly join the other one in hes plane.)I would like to see that made more easy. Maybe a question for the bomber pilot when creating the bomber to allow or not to allow other players to join in hes plane.

Benefits:
I would suppose many people would like to fly in co-op at the bombers.

Type of improvement:
Finnish the planes

Explanation of proposals:
Many of the planes. (expecially bombers) are not ready at all. Please make the current planes ready and other in game planes flyable (forexample vickers wellington). I would rather fly with a working plane in a grafically glitched world than to fly a bugfilled plane in a perfect world. (Forexample BR 20 randomly takes bombs in multiplayer or doesn't, Gyros started to work in JU88 only in the latest beta patch , klickable cockpits in all of them (pitot heater putton does not work in JU88 and so on and so on))

Benefits:
Planes would be flyable

[Jaws2002]

Type of improvement:

Bring back the "golden hour". Bring back the original beautiful sun sets and sun rises.

Explanation of proposals:

In photography, the golden hour (sometimes known as magic hour) is the first and last hour of sunlight during the day,[1] when a specific photographic effect is achieved due to the quality of the light.

Typically, lighting is softer (more diffuse) and warmer in hue, and shadows are longer. When the sun is near the horizon, sunlight travels through more of the atmosphere, reducing the intensity of the direct light, so that more of the illumination comes from indirect light from the sky, reducing the lighting ratio. More blue light is scattered, so that light from the sun appears more reddish. In addition, the sun's small angle with the horizon produces longer shadows.


Since you are working on a new graphics engine please bring back the beautiful natural colors of the sunset and sunrise present when the game was released.

Benefits:

The game would look a lot more natural and beautiful and would make the flying during that time of day a beautiful experience again.

Thank you.

Please spend time to make sure that the flight models are in line with historical data.

[*Buzzsaw*]

Salute

Please provide the correct weights and flight models for all combat aircraft.

At the moment the following errors exist:

Aircraft weights:

1) The Hurricanes are approx. 240 kgs overweight
2) The 109's are approx. 50-70 kgs underweight.

Aircraft speeds:

1) All Spitfire variants are between 50-60 kph slower than their actual historical speeds.
2) All Hurricane variants are between 40-50 kph slower than their actual historical speeds.
3) All 109 Variants are between 10-15 kph slower than their actual historical speeds.

Aircraft climbs:

1) Spitfire variants are at approx. 50-70% of their actual historical climb rates.
2) Hurricane variants are at approx. 60% of their actual historical climb rates.
3) 109 variants are at approx. 130% of their actual historical climb rates.

The final suggestion: add any gameplay at last to your product:

1) Offline: radio comms, AI not crashing, attacking targets and not avoiding battle.

2) Online: working coop (like in old good IL-2)

3) Sample of online add-in to allow MP server programming.

Luthier mentioned in the recent Q&A discussion that there was no much time left for gemeplay issues because of priority of engine and technical problems. If there is only one final step left for CLOD, it has to be gameplay at last.

If there is no gameplay, there is no game. If there is no game, there is no 1C:MG studio by 2014.

+1 (and a whole lot more)

And for the pedantic posters:

Type of improvement: As above. Clear and simple.


Explanation of proposals: They do not currently represent the aircraft of the period

Benefits: Makes CoD do what it says on the DVD-ROM box - "...ENTER THE MOST HISTORICALY ACCURATE COMBAT FLIGHT SIMULATOR EVER".

Type of improvement: Hot key binding for starting track recording in-game.

Explanation of proposals: Currrently players have to exit the game screen to start track recording. A key binding for starting track recoding in-game (like in IL2-1946) is needed.

Benefits: Starting track recording is currently time consuming & an immersion killer. Players should be able to start track recording with one keystroke without leaving the game screen.
