I was able to park myself in the formation with a Stuka (and its buddies), the tail gunner didn't even give me the angry look. AI gunners feel neutered.

FPS seems a bit lower than before, and lack of FF strength slider is terrible for us MSFF2 owners. Or any way to enable/disable it.

Sounds are much much better, though Merlin needs more work (high RPM). DB however is spectacular. Well done.

The cockpits look as if someone is smoking inside (external view, all planes).

System specs:

i5 2500k
P8P67 EVO
8 GB RAM
GTX 580 Lightning (driver v. 275.33)
Asus Xonar STX

EDIT: It seems to me that only tail gunners are dumb, when I engage Heinkels I get pretty shot up while braking away next to them.

Blackdeath performance went up in strict fps regards, however stutter at low altitude is worse than previously and performance is a mixed bag with it dropping far lower than it used to at time.

Various graphical bugs, have tried several driver revisions with no effect - 6.30 am mission time.

First three look like alpha channel issues to me.




This one was originally a definite bottom edge of early morning mist that has been there since launch, after this patch it has a definite blue edge to it making it stand out even more.


Gunsight dimmer has no effect whatsoever, and I'm not at all keen on the way the image washes out when looking towards the sun either, but that's just an opinion.

Has been a problem for me since the last patch and still here for me anyways ............... I'm on the latest Nvidia driver haven't tried the older patches but although I do suspect that could be a cause.

A lot of the radio commands are still not functioning. I really hope this is finally a full feature in the final patch. I'm getting tired of not being able to make decisions in the air.

Sounds still disappear when playing back tracks recorded when flying the Spit IIa. All is fine during mission but play back shows the motor is cutting in and out, gauges going crazy, backfires. Really comical. Not sure what is up with that one. Not a priority for me but a real annoyance.

Maybe they are? The Swedish air force bought a bunch of P-51:s during the last months of the war as a stop gap solution until Saab had gotten own production up and running (and then some more just after the war). The first thing they did after they got them was to remove the ash trays that where fitted in the cockpits

Talking anecdotes I also remember reading that one of the american ferry pilots buzzed a bridge in central Stockholm and got reprimanded afterwards for it... As the war was still not over I guess he thought the ferry mission to Sweden instead of going to Berlin did not get his adrenaline pump going

Crazy thought smoking in a cockpit with tons of gasoline behind you...

When switching the gear switch to neutral the same sound occurs as when extending the gear.
Happened to me on Bf110 and Bf109, followed by a belly landing because i trusted the sound and didn't look at the lights .

Joined a multiplayer server with 4 players. Game stopped working after I had selected a plane (Fiat G-50) and tried to go to loadout screen.

I think it's too difficult to see which multiplayer airbases have flyable planes. IMO this should be easier and faster to see . Now requires LOTS of map scrolling/zooming. In IL2 it was very easy to see this.
