I said what i think about p-51, because i dont understand why you talk about your opinion if it might offend other people.

What on earth are you talking about?
First, this thread is called IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of dover. So when they come with their usual Friday update, I expect to hear only of that and not hear about their sequel. They should make or post it in their sequel thread, if they have not such a thread they should make one.
I never said anything about MG doing all modifications of the spitfire, that is your words, so don't put what is flying inside your head and make it sound like I said it.
So what if you think the P-51 is ugly?`I couldnt care less what you like or not, and the same should you. Personal opinions are....yeah; Personal!
If my opinion OFFENDS someone, well let them be offended! Why should I care if my opinion offends someone? Let them be offended then. There is no crime being offended.
You should watch this video and you might learn something:

Based on the history of this forum that is a very wise move!

Keep up the good work!

BlackSix, one question on the IL2, will the planes continue to have the same interactivity in the cockpits, I love switches and levers

I've gone through the entire thread and placed some messages here and there on various posts. Please, for the love of God...

1) Ask questions to BlackSix about the sequel

2) Ask questions to Blacksix about the upcoming patch: new graphics, sounds, the kind of bugs fixed.

3) Answer questions of other members IF we are sure we know the answer. Links are not mandatory but they are good to have, otherwise just say "i'm not sure, but i remember reading that...", etc etc.



What we don't do in this thread:
1) Assume we know the answers to questions when we don't, and post them to further our own agenda (eg "i'm sure they will fix the sim" or "i'm sure they can't fix the sim", or "this is what happened during development and it's that person's fault").

2) Ask unrelated questions or argue about other subjects that don't concern the expansion or the patch (eg, asking about 100 octane is fine, getting into a debate about it is not). This includes the current message. For separate topics users can and should start separate threads, plus we will help them to keep them on topic if they request our help.

3) Get obsessed about proving each other wrong, getting in a forum fight and insulting each other (no examples needed really, we're all too familiar with it already).


In general it's a question and answer thread, not a guess and speculation thread or a bait and switch, point and laugh thread. Let's stick to the topic please.

Thank you.

It's a Q&A thread. People ask and answer questions about the update content (next patch and sequel).

On the next thread clean-up the off-topic posts will simply be deleted without warning. Next round is issuing warnings and final round is infractions for off topic posting. Let's not go there.

Please everyone, maintain the original scope of the thread by your own powers, or i'll have to do it with the power of the forum tools. Thanks for your cooperation, at least those of you that cooperate.

I recently looked at photos from a trip my father did on the trans-Siberian railway and was surprised that it was the same landscape for days with the same birch trees, with the same color of their autumn leaves. Looked like a railroad miniature landscape... Maybe they are not that off, even though I agree it's a lot more varied here in southern Sweden...

Core blimey, is that what CloD looks like with all the "bells and whistles" turned on. With my PC settings it looks like a case of, "Should have gone to Specsavers". I must have missed the memory leak bit from Luthier. I take it that the memory leak bit is the Launcher exe problem? Never the less, onward and upwards Moriarty, maybe I'll get a bonus present for my birthday next week!!!

I like the Il2, it is really very very nice. Thank you Ilya and BlackSix.

[Zappatime]

Nice pics of the il2, though not too difficult to imagine how it would look in COD clothing, it barely gets me through to another Friday, roll on the release of the beta for the prequel to the sequel

Fingers crossed it's in the coming week!

[No1 Cheese]

Well, as the memory leak seems to be related to texture loading a rewrite of the graphics engine for sure will eliminate it (as texture loading is a central part of a graphics engine)... And maybe introduce new ones... that are a lot easier to fix if they have done a good rewrite

Besides, Ilya has already stated that code section with the memory leak is not there in the new patch, so I don't understand why everyone asks the same question over and over again... But OK, I maybe do understand the anxiety as it's the memory leak that has made me stop playing the game since the last patch
