@oleg. just reading earlier that you havent shot ani Ai or humans down .. and got me thinking . Are we likely to see you and the flying circus(crazy ivan and gang) back up in the air when you release BOB? I never got to fly against/with you in il2 ( joined the community in Pacific fighters days). I fancy a good old dogfight with you guys, to test yer skills and all .

I think Yes. I will play online sometime.
I only afraid that it will be looking like in the past: anybody will think that it is a matter of honour to shot me down....
Some time it was looking by this way in the past: All play around .... I enter a game and then they all see me in the air... then forget the enemy and try to shot down me... even I'm in the same team

Haha, perhaps it should be in the server rules:
1. Oleg is not always a top priority target, especially when he is on your team. Oleg should be considered in the same way as any other target.
2. No shoulder shooting.
3. No team-killing...
etc.

That happens when their favourite plane on the sim does not fly how they think it should!
Also, you should had choose server with noh icons, so nobody would had know which was you.

I remember on those days one of the coolest things about the original IL-2 was seeing for the first time while in a coop mission chat messages in cyrilic. Of course i couldn´t understand anything of the message, but i was flying russian and it was like "hey, i´m flying russian and you see russian messages!". It was incredible immersive!

My guys and me always fly only on standard released version. This is the principle with good output and response from users with respect to developers. Its my principle for a long time. And we will keep this principle in future.

It was Ok if you mean Russian KRI. But we didn't show there new project.

I'm preparing right now new update. All in air. And maybe one shot on the ground (dislike colors of some types of grass..)
Maybe tomorrow, maybe on Friday. Tomorow - if I will take one day vacation again.

Maybe both days

LOL, only kidding

Sounds great.
