Today has turned out to be one of the best days I've had in a long time and I would like to thank Luthier and B6 for sticking the cherry on top of the cake

Good times ARE coming!

Default Rookies vs vets

Interesting that the number of Hurricanes in the fight number 534 planes during the battle of Britain and this fight must have competed well with ROOKIE pilots. Also was flying @ 12lbs boost before the war even got started. Also the Spitfire flown by Rooks. with no more then 10 plus hours were engaging 109s far superior pilot skills but yet the only thing to keep the lads alive was the MACHINE if so poor to your historical standards then Britain would have been German. This is getting so frustrating to get any plane in the game that can compete what the heck. I don't care what you call me this is really up setting. to now fight an even harder fight against the 109s. which just need a boost not a dumbing of the British planes. Bring back the head shake and plane shine and I will at least fly the sim offline for the scenery.

Huzzah!

I'm so very thankful for the news. I am very impressed with the team and how they managed to have a message for us every friday so far. I can't wait for the patch and I'm sure the changes will improve the game greatly.

Can't wait !

"It's going into wide internal testing today, which will last through the weekend and probably a couple of days more."

Thank you for a very informative update....not to be a party pooper but I guess people should not expect an imminent release. If you start testing internally now, it seems to me that a release would be realistic within 2-3 weeks, giving you time to fix minor issues which are bound to show up at a testphase.

Either way, I am happy we see progress.

I'm also a little nervous to see how the updates shake out, but let's wait and see how the patch actually changes things before getting TOO crazy about it.

Maybe the Spit IIa will be a good adversary and the server will allow it. Maybe the Ia will have improved enough to be competitive. If those things are the case, then I'm sure we'll be fine.

I may just have to hop from my Hurricane into a Spitfire though

Allright then. This is the one that will get me off the fence to buy the game and try it on my older machine.

I also understand the necessity of bringing out the sequel in order to be able to afford keeping the entirety of 1C's flight sim aspirations afloat.

But...

...even as one of the most optimistic around here I can't help but be a bit disappointed that we didn't get the full experience for Battle of Britain.

In a niche industry like this surrounded by bland console fare I'll take what I can get and be thankful for it though.
Charvel,

Agreed! I am a big fan of this sim and fly many many hours on-line (ATAG mostly), but find that I have now accepted that the devs have failed to deliver the BoB we had hoped for, but we are starting to get a good flight sim with potential for the future. The sad failure of the BoB product has split our squad though; many have left CloD and gone to WoT or RoF.
