PS. I'm the guy who hated the cheap love story tacked onto the 1969 film, but I love this particular angle of our sim. Trust me on this.

I'd take on the whole luftwaffe with all their aces for her.

2. Thank you. I'm not worried. I know the game will deliver.

3. I still can't believe we're discussing tracers. I know it's our own fault for making them look like glowing sperm in the original and allowing you to get used to them. They're correct now. They're perfection. They're ideal. They'll never change. OK?

I shot at night and day with tracers and i love them.
One question. Due to the type of powder burning in the tracer bullets, they burned in different colors. So far we only saw white tracers in the shots. Are we goiung to see different color tracers like in il-2, based on the composition of the powder burning?


Thank you for all the hard work gents. Cant wait for the day when I'll have to take on the whole Luftwaffe.

Actually, any insurance wonldn't let you fly a spit unless you have at least 100 hours on T6 and some aerobatic experience

Personally I don't like the mix of a sim like BoB and a love story. I can understand that Luthier is under the charm of this unreachable creature but I would prefer not to see a love story overlapping with the gameplay (strong personal emotions can lead to bad marketing choices, bad marketing choices can lead to anger and anger can lead to ... ). If one wants to see some nice 3D girls have a look at GTA4 but this kind of feature wouldn't fit a flight sim.

But maybe I'm wrong as I see all the enthousiastic reactions all around. I think that you guy's spend too much time on the web and today it's friday night so cut the machine and enjoy your sortie

I bet in the game that that hot girl is actually French or German, maybe some kind of spy or girlfriend.


QUOTE=Richie;196277]Ok.Do you want my story?...Of course you do.

Bob met Charlotte during the Battle of France. They fell madly in love. Sadly Bob had to return to England when the Germans took over France. For months some how they have kept in touch and in the thick of the Battle of Britain he has arranged to pick her up on the beach just out side of Calais so he can bring he back to England where they are to be married. Things seem to be going well at first......then................

Erich Rudorfer is flying back to JG 2 when he sees a Spitfire........

I've never understood this communities hang up with grass color. I don't live in the U.K., but the colors look fine for me for a mid spring to mid summer coloring. Graphics on a PC have not yet reached the point of photo realism, but this looks damn fine to me compared to the flying I've done in real life. The shade differences in fields, the colors all seem close enough to me. Lime green? I don't see anything close to lime green in any of these photos. You should step outside and look around during spring and summer rather than just looking at photos of outside. The clouds have always been impressive to me. They don't look like the photos of real clouds in other games, but they are volumetric and close enough to the real thing that I have always been suitably impressed. I honestly believe some of you need to step outside once in a while and experience the great outdoors. This community is so insular I have a hard time reading anything other than Oleg and Ilya's posts.

Oleg and the 1c Maddox team thank you for all the hard work you have done to make this, what is most likely the most realistic flight sim (combat or otherwise,) of all time. We all appreciate your hard works, and look forward to the masterpiece you have painstakingly, and sacrificed so much for.

Wow flaming. When are we back to talking about the brunette? I like brunettes.

Just look at Tanner's previous posts. It appears Tanner is holding a grudge for some reason and for someone that joined this forum in 2008, you'd hope he'd have 1/2 a clue how Oleg does his updates. Guess not.

Anyhow, last time I checked IL2 was the most successful WWII sim ever created, if not the most successful combat sim ever made, and is still going strong 10 years in the running. Seems like Oleg's pretty clueless to me lol. I'd say that Oleg knows more about development than Tanner ever will. I guess some people just don't get it.

Anyhow, thanks for the update Oleg. We all can't wait to get our hands on this new title.

@Jaws - I'll be your wingman - 2 vs the entire Luftwaffe

There is no getting away from having a certain percentage of wacko's, in any community.
