I’d just like to clarify a couple of things, just in case:

1. We are continuing to work on ALL previously announced features: graphics, FM, AI, radio comms, launcher errors, etc. This has always been a constant, never changed, not expected to change.

2. We assume that the most common reaction to the screenshots will be “why the heck do we need that, why didn’t you work on XYZ instead”. We almost decided to skip the screenshots altogether, but then decided that we’ll get the same reaction if we post nothing as well. So we decided to post these anyway – and we’ve got our asbestos suits on.

Sometimes you have to put the hip-waders on :)

Many thanks for the updates and the early look at the IL-2. Cliffs of Dover is a start and a foundation and while it's no secret that it has some issues... so did IL-2 when it first came out. Aside from bug fixes...this series needs content and this is a great step. I look forward to returning to the Eastern Front! Happy New Years and keep it up in the new year!

Thanks, and happy new year too!

i think anyone who asks why build that IL2...i think would be a pretty dumb question since its for the next expansion....thats like people saying "why do you need the 109e4", when you are producing a BOB game

Thank you BlackSix, and Luthier and team! Your hard work is appreciated! :)
I hope you guys have a great new year too!!

Hi Luthier,
On the contrary. As a long time IL2 simmer - since the first day of the first release - I really appreciate all that is being done. I believe that I understand the business model you have and financial and other considerations.

I and others continue to fly on the ATAG server on a regular basis and are always amazed at the positive points we come across. The ones not working quite as hoped are circumvented in the knowledge that in time those things will be improved.

I really love flying the Sturmovik and look forward to the upcoming series as they fall into place. For now, Cliffs of Dover is a pleasure to fly.

Best of the Season and New Year to you and your Team!!

Hmmm...so let the works start:

And since we are almost exclusively grown-ups (despite the things we write and the way we behave very often in this forum) here are some handy and practical New Year's Wishes:

May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist, your gastro-enterologist, your urologist, your proctologist, your podiatrist, your psychiatrist, your plumber and the I.R.S.

May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs and your stocks not fall; and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise.

May New Year's Eve find you seated around the table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends. May you find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night.

May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to your spouse, your child, your parent, your siblings; but not to your secretary, your nurse, your masseuse, your hairdresser or your tennis instructor.

And may we live in a world at peace and with the awareness of God's love in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's smile, every lover's kiss, and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of our heart.
