Cockpit IL-2 has not yet fully ready, so we do not show it yet.
Buildings, trees, landscape - it's WIP
The inscription on the IL-2 is - "the Nazi invaders must die".

That's what it looks like to me. But maybe it's just their pc.

"Yeeee Haaawwww!" Thanks 1C, B6 and company; now I can go to Mexico, Playa De Carmen for a month! See ya'll at the end of April. I'll keep up with the post from my Iphone. I hope you guys good luck and I'll place a candle on the Virgin Mary's effigy.

By the way any of you guys in Cancun and wants a beer, message me. It's spring break here in USA and I'm going down there to relax.

Hey I found a pic of me in my tournament days in 1997 - 1999 CDV- Nival Blitzkrieg champion series in Leipzig Germany.

Great times. I'm the Blond head far left back.

Love the contrasting paint schemes/frost effect on the IL2s, do you just have the early IL2s or do you have the rear turret version?

Good day everyone!

We still don’t have the beta of the patch ready for the public, nor do we have a definite release date. The particle system remains a final bastion of the micro-freeze. We almost succumbed to public pressure and released a version of the patch with micro-freezes every time there are particle effects on screen, but finally decided that would be anticlimactic at best. Drops in FPS every time you fire your guns would only add oil to the fire, in our opinion. Better to face your ire a little longer for not releasing the patch than to face the outrage when the long-awaited beta is imperfect.

Still, while our graphic programmers are struggling with that, other team members are progressing along other fronts.

We are showing you some screenshots of the most iconic aircraft from the upcoming sequel. We are currently fine-tuning the flight model, and new ground-attack AI routines. We just cannot hold back the screenshots of how cool it looks. We’re all stoked here.

We know that none of you can really share our joy yet, and Cliffs of Dover is all you have at the moment. We have discussed at length whether we should even be talking about the future while our present is in the state it’s in. Dissension notwithstanding, we did decide that some extra glimmer of hope is better than complete silence. The last thing we want is for an extra segment of the community to start complaining that we’ve stopped showing our Eastern Front content as well.

So that’s the update then!

Have a great weekend!

Ilya and B6 - it's gorgeous. I'm almost moved. Thank you for sharing this beauty, and take your time for the patch.

Just one question: Will FM corrections be included in the next patch?

Cheers,
Insuber

Thank you B6 and dev team.

Cant wait to make some love with that beast. :-P

Great airplane.

Looking good, and thanks for the update and the reasoning behind the pushback on release :)
