Friday Update, April 6, 2012

I got the itch to fly over the channel real bad lately, so I am always awiting these updates with great aticipation. Take all the time you need. Listen to hardcore fans not trolls. We are a team, the community and the developers so just stick to your guns because there are a lot of us that appretiate you and your work.

Now for some constructive criticism. The village layout is great as well as the trees and bushes around them. I know that villages in easter europe look like that, sorrounded by grass and trees, like parts of forests.
The walls and roofs look amazing as well.So do the tree trunks. Great stuff very life like and detailistic.

THe negative things are, well the things that could use some work is that the tall grass is too spiky and ruff around the edges. The windows seem kind of small and blurry, like they're not actually a part of the buildings. The grass looks a bit like a carpet aaaaand have you considered gravel roads or muddy roads for the season.

Well there it is constructive criticism. If you stay the course this game is gonna be the new benchmark in the industry.

I love you Russian ethousiasts because you are keeping the aviation dream alive.

Pity that patch progress is difficult, succes with it!
The landscape and houses look great, like from a history book.

B6 I was wondering if there will be tree collision model soon for CLOD?

Thanks.

Don't rush it. Take your time. I rather have it done properly than rushed.
We have waited one year, we can wait another one.

BlackSix, the skin resolution of the buildings seem to be way higher than I know from last specifications. Were there any changes with building specifications (poly count, skin size) since last time?
Kuzma told me to skin buildings with approx. 20 pixels per meter. Your today's buildings look to me at least the double resolution.

Thank you for the update. Outstanding job your developers are doing.

Take your time and get these shutters fixed.

Releasing an update before its ready is not an update.

Stay the course. You're doing a fantastic job!!!

Some other nice details too...but brings to mind a question...will that be representative of the level of detail available over the whole map at standard settings when we are flying over it?

If so, please ask the external team to consider bringing their magic to the England map when they get the chance.

Thanks for the update and good luck in pulling the last items of the patch together this weekend. Fingers crossed.

P.S. - I'm serious about the England map!

my thoughts exactly ; btw take your time with the update, no sense in rushing it just because; ppl may be impatient, well i am, but rather later and better then rushed and sour.

P.S. - can't wait to storm the barn..
