I may be overly optimistic, but jpeg compression can give a jagged look, perhaps it was how the screenie was saved and not so much the game engine, but as I said... maybe I am in denial lol

Hi BlackSix. We all look forward to the patch, but I agree with this.

We have discussed at length whether we should even be talking about the future while our present is in the state it’s in. Dissension notwithstanding, we did decide that some extra glimmer of hope is better than complete silence. The last thing we want is for an extra segment of the community to start complaining that we’ve stopped showing our Eastern Front content as well.

I did buy the orirganl IL2 because the name was IL2 and I coud hope to fly a ..IL and other Soviet planes. I shall wait and hope thank's a lot.

We still don’t have the beta of the patch ready for the public, nor do we have a definite release date. The particle system remains a final bastion of the micro-freeze. We almost succumbed to public pressure and released a version of the patch with micro-freezes every time there are particle effects on screen, but finally decided that would be anticlimactic at best. Drops in FPS every time you fire your guns would only add oil to the fire, in our opinion. Better to face your ire a little longer for not releasing the patch than to face the outrage when the long-awaited beta is imperfect.

I know it may be totally unrelated but in the DCS series some types of micro stuttering is cause by intel speedstep tecnology. Only fix for certain systems is to disable it in the BIOS....

Early releases of DCS:WH BETA had the exact same problem of firing the gun causing FPS drop/stuttering(not related to speed step). It could be you guys are dealing with a similar issue.

Anyways thanks for the update. Good luck on squashing the final bugs.
