Can we get some Official comment on the news from Russia?

On lowest settings I got approximately 22 - 25 FPS in the tutorial. Later will try it much more powerful PC.

thanks mate...btw is there a chance epilepsy filter could be turned OFF in one of the patches?

Officially I don't know now yet, but I personally think that it is possible.

Salute

Here is the game on lowest settings. Note, the external view of the aircraft is NOT what you will see of an enemy external when you are in the cockpit, you see a higher quality view, I assume one which will conform with the visuals you are seeing of your own cockpit.

The difference between the lowest settings for plane and normal one doesn't affect the frame rate at all, but the visual effect is very huge. See the screens attached (again, screens made on the very weak PC - P4 3,2GHz, 2gb RAM pc3200 and Geforce 8800GT 512 mb at 1280x1024x32bit and Windows XP)

Aaaargh!

Back in the day you just put a warning for epileptics on the box and suggested the buy something else. Problem solved.
But no, in 2011 we need an epileptic compliant game - if it's not, you can't sell it.

Jeez, this is Western Europe, you can't sue someone who warned you, yet you refuse to obey and play it anyway.

How many people are suffering of this disease anyway?
(I once met one: They can talk you, and while in the middle of the sentence just faint and drop on the floor - like they just got a headshot...
Anyway, you have be quick to catch them before the hit the floor, especially if the floor is hard.)


Wiki says: 0.5% of the population are suffering of epilepsy.
Wow, that could really damage your sales.

Could you upload a video please?

Also, you have to consider this fact. Not all epileptic sufferers are affected by flashing images. So the percentage of people who can be affected by games is even lower.
My Mum is epileptic and has never had a seizure caused by flashing images.

I don't want to cause a ruckus, and let it be clear I am a huge supporter of Oleg and IL-2, I plan on buying the game ANYWAY, but wondering about all the comments I am reading on the Russian boards.

All of the following is not completely clear because of translation, but this is what I understood from reading dozens of translated comments on the Russian boards. Those include comments from Luthier. (Lead developer Ilya Shevchenko)

The game was apparently sent to the publishers in an unfinished form to be put on the discs, not surprising, with the idea that being installed by Steam, it would be immediately patched. Apparently the patch is 500 mg.

According to some on the Russian forums, there are big graphics issues with the game on lower end machines, as seen here when the settings are turned down to achieve decent framerates:



It is not clear if this the unpatched game or after patch. Others with better machines get better results as per this:



Here is a training mission grab, notice the freezes but some were not having the problems:

I don't quite get that.

You shown us three different screenshots with three different plane-detail settings i assume.

With the following FPS 25, 32, 43. How is 25 and 43 not a huge difference?

Maybe i'm reading this wrong, but on those screenshots, it's pretty obvious to see that the different settings have a huge impact on the framerate people are getting.

But other than that, if you want to convince people that CloD can run smoothly on a good system, please make a video. That's what people want to know.
