Anyone figure out the secret addition?
Has anyone found out what that new addition to the game that Luthier has eluded to is? I still haven't seen anything about it.
|
Im guessing the ability to climb into the aircraft before mission, or maybe swim or fire flares when you land :)
|
I know!
Could it be that the game will actually work in normal way, like all other games? :P |

One of the only major features other combat flight sims don't have are animated ground crews. That would definitely make the RRR features, airfields much more lively and immersive.
|
Animated Spitfire girl
|
Using the Heinkle He-115 & the Supermarine Walrus to rescue downed pilots? After they've become flyable,of course...This would give us a few variations on combat missions & maybe beautiful nurses too ?
|
Maybe it was the insta-freeze every time there was an explosion? No other flight sim has that, but it obviously didn't go down as well as they hoped in the community so they deleted it with the hotfix... ;)
|
The 2D clouds of 2 patches ago? The community manager?
|
1.Full dynamic weather
2.Dynamic Campaign 3.Flighable wellington bomber :) |
Interactive briefing done in 1st person view for assigned targets ( dependent of airfield and planetype ) ?
Awesome for ( online ) campaigns, missions and even casual online gameplay! |
What next?
An ATM machine at the airfield that gives you money cuz i`m broke!!!! |
I didn't notice the improvements at once. I knew it!! I just found out just as I read this post... Argh.. I hate myself for not spotting the additional features... Thanks a lot for sharing.
|
Whatever it is, I don't think it's seen the light of day yet :(
|
my bet
a full series of animations of pilots Luthier states that hired already a guy to work only for this subject |
I ve seen in one of the configs that there a rows for config the control of AA Arty and groudn vehicles. Perhaps we get these features ;) .
|
I hope so this would be awesome, to see the crew bale out would be as cool as ice
|
I think the new feature is anti-aliasing!
|
|
Since it is a secret everything heard is just water cooler gossip.
|
I think it might be an anti-speculation filter
|
maybe the Dx11 implementation with all the graphic stuffs without bugs and better performance. :)

We said secret, you heard science fiction :D ~S~ |
I hope dynamic weather with new gorgeous clouds.:-P With the lighting engine this game has, some new well made clouds would make a huge difference.
|
i think its johny lee virtual reality i usually get what i want, i dont know if its the nagging or my influencing reality :)

didnt he say the new feature will have the competitors squirming?? none of the above would make me squirm if i was a competitor.
|
a westland whirlwind now wouldnt that be something :)
Cheese |
the su-26?
the ability to use AAA ? the animated ejection? or the lights in the wings? the bail out when we sink or landed? the noseart feature? the kill picture in the plane? or Oleg returns ;) :twisted: a lot of thing made me squirming, but i'm not a competitor... just a customer |
Flyable Do17, none of the competitors have that .
(please God let that be true, I could spend my CoD life flying the Kenley raid) |

Here's hoping.. :mrgreen: |

Well... who is really the competition? FSX or X-Plane are not Combat Flight Sims... the only thing that comes close is the previous IL-2 '46... CFS3... well, it is older than 1946... Jane's and all the pre-IL-2 sims (Luftwaffe Commander, B-17-II, etc...) are nowhere in the same league, and they haven't been for a while. All the Warbirds and derivatives are great for Massive multi-player, but are nowhere in complexity as far as FM/AI...
So I'd say, anything beyond the current features... is better than the competition... :D |
which competitors of WWII:confused:
I don't think that is any that can catch them.. |
Personally I think Luthier see's RoF as a competitor.He and Jason are big friends apparently, and probably have some friendly rivalry going on.
Its good news for us. |
aces high is pretty good, especially if multiplayer is your thing, not to mention the software is pretty accessible...i know it was aces high with their commercials (i dont see cliffs of dover commercials or other commercials that advertise aviation sims) that air on aviation shows, that first really got me into the genre...other than that you have world of planes, and i think the other one from the devs of the world of tanks...but yea i dont see them having many competitors....

But I think at this moment, RoF is the closest of a direct competitor for IL2CoD. Beside the old IL2 1946 itself :) |
I think it was the 3D Capability........

I still think human controlled radar |
Either,
DX11 Community Manager FSAA SLI/Crossfire fixed Dynamic Weather Photorealistic Landscape Cooperative Play etc It could be any of these that were initially promised, Im hoping for FSAA for starters. |
I still reckon its the weather model. One that's both dynamically generated and changes on its own. A few games have dynamically generated weather but it doesn't change.
The vision for IL-2 clearly wants to go towards some sort of persistent online campaign. The capability is there in the engine to do it. Having a weather model that continually changes without having to load a different mission would greatly help towards that. |
It's gonna be something online related, that I am certain of. I would've liked it to be some kind of campaign generator but I don't think so.
|
weve had all these things before in other sims, none of them are special, is FSAA special? its a basic essential surely, any flight sim is the competitor, no matter the era, ww2 is my thing but as the current ww1 flight sim is better imo im playing that, if there was a korean air war sim and it was better than the others, i would play that.
so for the competitors to squirm, it has to be extraordinary, lights in wings?!.....come on.....surely your hopes are higher than that, a flyable do17??, thats not gonna have anyone quaking in there boots is it?? im not even gonna guess, but i do hope its something special, perhaps luthier regrets saying it now, because its been built up a lot, and you know what happens when expectations get high, usually a big let down, so yer.....thinking about it, maybe it will be that outstanding feature of lights in wings.......... |

Most features mentioned were never a secret just planned features like moving weather that are still to be implemented. The only feature really not talked about, or that other combat flight sim don't have are animated groundcrews, pilots, etc. This is one feature that will really bring life to the sim.
|
@ Sharp..it was a longshot. There's a lot that couldbe or would be. Animated grounds would be a nice implementation. But I'm still working to get CoD running smooth on my system. I'm glad they're still working to improve the game, still little joy flying.
|
S!
To make any competition squirm would be a smoothly running game supporting large formations of planes without slowing down to a crawl like now. Because on those moments you get CoD to run smooth it really blows any competition out of the water with the feel and graphics. |

I'll wait and see what they're up to for release. |

The ability to move free form around the plane.. eg a heinkel gunner getting up and walking to the other side guns, or to open hatches and leap out
