Fantastic update Oleg as always!!
Keep them coming! Don't bother to much about a few "negative" comments. The waiting and expectation for this incredible sim is sometimes too much for a few fellow simmers. Please allow us a weak moment now and then. All the best to you and your team! |

I've been waiting more than 5 years for this puppy, and of course the initial excitement has worn off. But it's not about the novelty, it's about the detail (which we see every week), the immersion of the sim, and that history that we learn! These are the things that kept IL-2 alive for so long. ![]() Remember, this time last year SoW still a myth to the general public. Now we've been getting WiP updates EVERY SINGLE FRIDAY! What other developer takes the time to do that? Updates or no updates, just knowing this software project is coming together is good enough for me. The thought of having this on my PC by October makes me giddy!! ![]() |

2. Today was also russian TV channel "Russia" and I'm very tired. First they was making the part about the real pilot that begun his carrer as a virtual Il-2 pilot. They did part of scene in real air with this pilot, then in my office in virtual sky. Final textures will be 100% polished in the final version. Yes, we replaced many of the place holders, but not all. There are still absent the beaches of rivers, not so good looking like shold looks the surf, etc... And these parts look so that I dislike to show anyway the complete picture. You know when we have shown excellent lighting effects, etc.... most people were discussing other things - textures that looks not like.... 3. Still the same if nothing bad happens. We are working really hard. From now I will show screen shots and some time video as it is ready and ready to show something that will tell new info in details. In this video we really have show very intersting details, that show potential of the coming features with the SoW.... We can't do each week "Spitfire video" cutting unfinished features or each week interview. I spend almost all last week answering a lot of questions that I'm sure will be in a sim. Or was listening to some requests. Would like to say other important thing: to create the first one from zero is one thing... to continue to upgrade already done - it is other thing. Hope you all understand the analogy with the first Il-2 and then with the new titles in a series... the same. I was speaking with people on the forums about Il-2 and its development almost two years before its release.... Last edited by Oleg Maddox; 03-05-2010 at 03:07 PM. |

HFC, with IL-2 and SOW developments you had and continue to have a rare opportunity in game industry world to take a peek behind the scenes and see how a flight sim is being born from basic 3D meshes to final animated models placed in the virtual environment.
Other developers show you some fancy but useless Holywood style trailer videos (that are just pure commercial trash) couple months prior to release. Such information as Oleg Maddox is presenting is very interesting to many of us and less interesting to some. But none of us has a right to "have concerns or objections with WIP developments". We are not WIP product customers. You may judge the final product because you have paid for it. But you have no real reason to judge how the developer works, speculate what is or isn't completed and what he should show to us before he is finished and sells the game to you. I believe it's clear to see where SoW is heading with such great details on ground vehicles and what opportunities the new game engine brings. Last edited by daidalos.team; 03-05-2010 at 02:51 PM. |

I'm and my team completely agree with you. We may go like others... and show just prefinal and final scenes... and never then talk to people. Like do really other... However we are not making the one season game. And our Il-2 shows it in the full range, isn't it? |

In my opinion, two equally bad attitudes should be avoided as much as possible :
- blind fan-boyism. - non-constructive criticism. |

Thank you for the update Oleg.
Around the base I can see some black dots when I zoom in. |
