Thanks for the update

The Panchard looks amazing. Nice attention to detail which really makes it look real
Is it the ingame lighting?

And I really like the fact that you now show the models in a video. Shows of the model much better than stills.. Keep them coming

Well done and thanks for the update.

I personally don't mind the wait and I agree that you cant win with releasing these images, dammed if you do and dammed if you don't.

Oleg,
Thank you for taking the time to post these updates.
Many of us who enjoy flying the sim also enjoy reading and sharing what it takes to create something so enjoyable.
We really appreciate and respect your dedication to this project. No one else has dared to undertake such a task.
Your hard work has not only provided an opportunity for us to experience ww2 air combat , but has more importantly provided the opportunity for fellowship with people from all over the world. It has given so many folks a new perspective and chance to learn about what people suffered through during those tragic war years.
The legacy of your hard work will span many generations of men. Not many people can claim such a prize. I am personally glad that I can be amongst those who you shared with , and be a witness to what you have created.
Keep up the fantastic work. We know that when you are ready to deliver the final work , that we will be ready and happy to enjoy it and once again salute you for a job well done.

sincerest regards ,
Eries

To be fair, the 70th anniversary could be anywhere from July (at the absolute earliest) to September (I believe Sept 15th is 'Battle of Britain day' in UK) and would be the date most identified with the battle.

On the subject of updates generally, I'd much rather see something rather than nothing. The problem is that such a level of anticipation has built up now for each Friday's release - I keep expecting the next level up - videos, inflight screenshots, etc. Expectation is getting the better of me each week for sure.

In a way that's a good thing. Better than no expectation or excitement.

Maybe it's as I put in my first post - we've become spoiled

Personally, I really enjoy all those little teasers you show us coming together into something really big. I love those subtile details that are barely noticed, but make it so much more realistic.


And if somebody doesn't like it, well, nobody forces you to watch them - wait until the official advertising starts and watch in amazement. But if you don't like what's being posted until then, should still show some respect and a social sense to not blow the party everybody else. Thank you.

Details are everything for a SIMULATION : so I will look at the accuracy of the landscape textures palette choice with as much enthousiam as I appreciated the realistic movement of these antennas

[DD_crash]

Thanks for the update Oleg I am sure that the game engine will be used for a lot of other games thanks to the accurate detail of you models

Lookin' good, lookin' good. I've just started waiting, or looking forward, to this game so I haven't had the chance to get all grumpy about anything yet.

Love the damage detail on that 111, I might start collecting holes when it comes out. To see how many you can get and still be in the air.

In my opinion, two equally bad attitudes should be avoided as much as possible :

- blind fan-boyism.
- non-constructive criticism.
