BETA PATCH v1.06.17582 - May 05, 2012

[Insuber]

I flew some 20 mins in ATAG. My observations:

Average FPS looks actually a bit higher, my *impression* is around 5%.
Some occasional stutters which I didn't experience before, 2 in 20 mins.
Horizon is more hazy
The bf-109 climbs better beyond 4500 m
Had ghost dots again
Revi is less bright when lit at 100%
sound radar is still there (I know, they didn't promise to fix it ...)
Daimler Benz sound is gorgeous ... a 109 zoomed on my 109, I could appreciate a lot of nice harmonics ...
Small graphic bug inside the 109 cockpit, you can see the grass through flank and wings, the throttle cable texture is missing:



All in all it seems the right direction. Good perspectives IMHO.

Thanks for the tip, but it didn't help. reinstalled, applied the patch again and removed logo. It silently CTD after the small plane on sight logo appears.

Will check again in two or three years.

Nah, I'm still going to wait until the game is officially patched up and I read that most people are satisfied.

I'm sure the developers know there are a bunch of folks cash in hand, waiting for that to happen, and I'm sure they are doing the best they can, knowing that there is new money out there for the taking.

I feel bad for all the early buyers out there who have been waiting so long.

Welp. Time to uninstall this turkey from my HD. My patience has run out. This patch is a joke.

I've wasted 50 bucks on plenty of games that were awful. I never thought I would feel that way with a sim in the IL-2 bloodline.

I was wrong.

Can you read (first side):
The main purpose of the alpha is to find and squash any remaining or new bugs, especially crash bugs. The most common of the infamous launcher crashes have been fixed, but a few very hard to catch bugs remain. On average, a full day of flying causes about 0.8 crashes, and our internal testing has not yet provided the crash logs needed to zero in on the issue.

If you don't like to test you should not install the patch and wait for the regular update.

I think it is first time in gaming industry when the customers were given PUBLIC AND OPEN ALPHA .... PATCH of their game and developers called it BETA PATCH v1.06.17582

Guys, dont make fools from yourselves please. IF they produced ALPHA PATCH, why they didn't test it with chosen group of community members before they go with it to the public? Or did they do it? If yes, it is not alpha anymore. Alpha is always internal and secret - just because so many bugs are there and of course main features are missing. But this is Russia, so maybe project management of software development is different there.

Not to mention that "this" was released to the public after ONE year and ONE month after release of original game.

thanks for this awsome patch my game is now 100% better playable then before, even over land. Not many stutters left here and i play in highest settings. Great job everyone.
