as yet....

1. NO CTD's!!!

2. Enjoy the extra hard work you now need on surviving. I ran a QMB of 4 Mk IXe Spits against 4 Fw 190A5's. Within 30 seconds of the action I had my backside handed to me, with the AI set at Veteran.

Love the work guys.

No more magic carpet rides for the AI! Really! They actually no longer do their UFO climb into the stratosphere and suck all the fun out of offline flying.



Apart from waving goodbye to Mr Magic Carpet they also seem to be much more competent all round.

and 6DoF!!

I'm impressed.

Thanks TD for keeping our sim alive. No problems at all so far.

Loving the AI! Just overshot an I16 and bled too much energy bouncing from high, so had him open up at 400 or so meters. Went inverted and rolled over and he couldnt keep up with me once I had accelerated a bit in a dive. By the time I pulled up at a few hundred meters with friends en route, he was over a kilometer and a half away and desperately trying to catch me, before breaking off for another target once he fell behind 2km.

Loving this sim!

My training mission is either me against a duo or a quartet of aces.

For the first time since Il2 exist I have now to engage the wingmen in the same time as their leader. They behave realistically now trying to nail you for real !

At ace level their attack feel somewhat too much coordinated but ace they are isn't it

Waiting for our beloved server to do the switch that we can see how it impart online play.

Thx to TD team. Hats off !

The new AI is fantastic. And the 6oF.... amazing. The incredible amount of work that has gone into remodelling the cockpits (Ki-61 is a prime example) to add missing details is just tremendous. Had a little CTD in quick missions, but so what

The 6dof feels like the best thing to have happened to il2 since it came out. When an enemy moves behind the broad girders of my Bf109 canopy, instead of losing him, I simply move my head a few inches and keep him in sight. So simple, but it's a beautiful and wondrous thing

I don't even have TIR, but using the mouse to look and a hat-switch for the head movement works perfectly. The new eye-position camera movement is a great improvement on it's own, and feels more natural than the old version.

The new AI routines are brilliant, enough said.

Using Static Aircraft as spawn-points, and leaving your aircraft where you park it - fantastic ideas, I never would have imagined that to be possible. I don't suppose there is any way to use custom skins on the statics?

The option to only allow externals while you are on the ground is very welcome, and I'm sure many will say long overdue, though now we have 6dof, it's perhaps less necessary than it used to be Personally I'd like to allow the F8 view as well as the F2, as in F2 it can be a little awkward (for those without rudder pedals) to keep the view behind your plane with one hand while handling the throttle and steering with the other.

Overall, superb and then some. I thank all of you who have put so much time and effort into it!
