CoD screenshots (merged)

Love the Stuka shot, and the damaged 110's with one wheel hanging down!

Thanks guys

Some really nice pics, wish I have a GPU that could handle it on this settings.

Talking about the wheel hanging down.... was it a common issue for aircrafts to release parts of the gear due to damage? I'm feeling that this happens very often during my play as well.... just out of curiosity

Just look at those screens guys. I think the community has become a little blasé about what we're being offered with respect to CloD. The potential of this product is truly enormous. Just imagine when it's perfected and technology catches up a little.

Personally I'm willing to wait as long as it takes. I know the current state of affairs is frustrating but we really can't afford to shun the developers at this critical stage and risk the future of this remarkable series.

Great screenshots everyone. Thanks.

'The Old Bell' is a great name for a pub. I'm glad they didn't go for the obvious ones (King's Arms etc.)

Yes very common. It is what happens when the Hydraulic pressure/fuel lines are severed. You lose pressure and the gear/flaps etc can't be used or sometimes even lower because pressure keeps them in the Up position.

Most notable on most aircraft when they lose engine power, there is therefore no Hydraulic pressure and landing gear/flaps cannot be used.

Or even on the Spitfire, which had hydraulic prop pitch and landing gear. Which is why there is a compressed air tank in the cockpit for emergency lowering of the undercarriage.

A mod was made for IL-2 1946 which simulates this. At the start of the video is some gun cam footage showing failing hydraulics:
