I'd like to add my own "WOOT", and thanks to Oleg, Ilya and the rest of the crew. You do good work.
It took me a couple of pages to confirm this is in fact the flight sim formerly known as SoW:BoB, and not another addition to the original Il-2 series. Guess I've got to increase my lurking in this forum past the Friday update pages.
It turns out my old graphics card knew more than I did. My BFG 9800GT (DX9) died last week, to be replaced (at cost, as it seems BFG isn't honoring their warranty any more) with a eVGA GTX460 (DX11). The old card took itself out behind the barn, sacrificing itself so that I could enjoy the upcoming CoD in all its DX11 glory.
As soon as I can figure out how to pre-order the collector's edition in the States, I'll sign myself up. To the carpers, know that it won't be perfect on day one. There will be bugs, and perhaps features you don't like. Be ready to submit the bug reports, and to turn off the stuff you don't want to use. Try to keep the criticism constructive, as that will let you vent while still doing us all some good. We're close to the next chapter of 1C flight sims, and it's going to be a good chapter.
