Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover Roadmap

[Feuerfalke]

Thanks for the update!

The sim is already awesome - most of the stunning features are under the hood, of course. I'm sure you will fix the glitches quickly. Can't wait to see how the sim will evolve over the next months.

Thanks Luthier !

Impressive piece of work !

As for 64 bits and FFB, if Luthier allways skipped those issues, well, it must mean something ?

Salute !

Yep...well...lets hope its at least on the back burner.

Thanks for your continued hard work, dedication, support and the updates Luthier!

I'm loving the work that has gone into this sim already. I'm on a mediocre rig, but with some tweaking done, I am now enjoying regular high speed dogfights over the channel. What is now obvious to me is the work that has gone into the damage modelling and AI- it a lot harder to get kills!

I am really looking forward to any improvements that emerge over the next few weeks/months.

Thanks again,
BobTuck.

Thank you very much for all your and rest of the Cliffs of Dover teams hard work. It has definately been worth the wait.

Cheers!

Have you pasted your configINI anywhere by chance? I am very interested in it.. or in any other suggestion.

Same here, the frame rate is horrific on my machine, and I'm only able to play over the channel. With my settings terrain looks worst at present than the original IL2 !! Any tweaking help would be most welcome !!
I'm glad to see that the team is still working its ass off to improve the game, however I would have much preferred been waiting 3-6 months more and get the actual finished game. I would have never imagine this coming from such a respected team and company.

Lets all hope the programmer Luthier speaks is not this guy... rushing to work on debugging:

Oh yes..I have seen the Black Devil ride, always rumor that he's dead, but new videos still show up!

Thanks for the update Luthier! If you posted this a week ago you could have lowered our blood pressure! Can't wait to get some MP dogfights poppin, the wait might be worth it for the US release.
