Have you read what TD say is going to be in the next patch? Are you expecting them to include stuff they haven't already told us about? Do you actually expect after the endless discussion of the 'Grumman issue' and TD saying they can't risk getting involved, that they are going to give us a flyable Avenger?

Just what exactly about TD is it that people don't understand? It is quite simple: (a) they are doing this in their spare time, with limited resources, (b) they hoped to have the next patch released by now, but are still beta-testing, and (c) YOU CAN'T ADD NEW THINGS TO A BETA TEST - if you do, it isn't beta testing at all. First, you design and test components seperately, and when they are ready, you beta-test to ensure they all work together. If you add something new you have to restart beta-testing from scratch.

To summarise: (A) Is 'x' included? - No, unless either they have already said it is, or they are planning to surprise us (in which case they won't let on now), and (B) 'Can you include 'y'? - No, not unless they already have.

See page one for the latest update and a list of announced upgrades in the 4.10 patch.

SoW is rumored to be out in Oct?? and 4.10 was expected by easter prior to the delay in beta testing. If you look on the last page, you'll see that DT is planning to issue an announcement concerning the delay. Patience

No carriers or flyable Avengers have been announced (you never know) for 4.10. You could go here http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...=8815&page=122 and request those things..respectfully...and perhaps you will be rewarded.

Cheers,

how many updates is team daidalos going to do for IL2? and when are they going to stop? when will it all end.

The planning goes to patch 4.13 (june 2011). See 4.10 patch overview first picture at the beginning of this topic.

Again (for the umpteenth time):

There won't be a flyable Avenger from Daidalos for we are subject to the same limitations as Maddox Games WRT to "the Grumman incident". We can modify what is there - texture, FM, probably weapons package etc - but we will not make a type flyable that is touched by "the Grumman incident".

Thank you for your patience, Thor.

I think that we have enough flyable planes to make any conceivable campaign or mission, save for the heavy bomber, that are ill suited for the game engine. I feel that we actually need some more AI types. Correct me if I’m mistaken, but AI types are much less complicated to do than flyable ones. If – just an educated guess – four AI types require as much work as a single flyable, I would surely choose the four AIs. An example: instead of the G**m**n A**n**r, I would prefer the complete series of Navy types on carrier deck: Devastator and Vindicator for early war years (needed to recreate Midway) and Helldiver for late war years (needed to recreate the Leyte Gulf battle). I repeat: AI only!

But, of course, to ask is easy, and we must be grateful to DT for anything they had done and will do in future!

Leaving the NG planes outside, there is still enough room for pacific content.
There will be nothing in 4.10 though, but DT is aware and has the oppinion, that the PTO is underdeveloped, compared to other theatres in game. We already are working on such content, there is no defined content list yet.

I think this will get interesting after 4.10 release.

Damn,chill out.
You don´t need to harass new members because they don´t know what´s happening here.
