Any hard feelings I might slowly be getting for the devs aside:

Latest Beta patch brings no significant gain in performance. More stuttering/microwarps over highly populated areas, increase the longer you fly over such areas (i.e. LeHavre, London).


Since I am also one of the few people that fly online regularly, here's a few observations:

Overall good FPS, drops over polulated areas and when the animated brown-ish dust on a landing/crahsing plane comes up.

Sound randomly completely drops when a new group of AI a/c is spawned.

Bailing out makes your plane disappear on any server running the latest beta.

Landed planes over enemy territory do not count as a kill.

Landing over enemy territory will keep your plane on ground for a long time (no despawn). Any AI AAA Gun in the area will fire at that plane and not pick up other targets.

Significant lag on a server when you leave it. You can sometimes watch from the server list screen, how your name will only be removed from the server after a couple of minutes.

If you are running Windows 7 Unzip the file to your main game folder, i.e. /Steam/Steam Apps/common/il-2 cliffs of dover/. Note! Use the unzip application, like 7-zip, to do the unzipping. Don't open the archive and copy/paste, I don't know why but there have been problems for some people doing that in the past.

Extract this 3 folders (use 7-zip for guaranteed success) to the desktop and then move them to your /Steam/Steam Apps/common/il-2 cliffs of dover/ folder.
Allow overwriting.

Hi to all,

Can someone tell me... WHEN this BETA patch, will be official....release......?




Thanks

[SEE]

I suspect that if there is to be an official update it will be scheduled before the USA release. The latest patch has MP issues and I guess these need to be fixed along with several other performance/gameplay bugs that have been there since launch. No news is good news......or so they say!
