I wouldn´t take this update as a promise that the patch will be out very soon...

That's my take on it too. I expect they will try to correct the major and long-outstanding issues before moving on to the sequel: performance and whatever known bugs we have like reversed controls/instruments and so on in certain aircraft.

I bought the game and will keep watching and hoping for real progress but all the missteps have left me quite skeptical.

They do have a lot of customers in Russia and there are also a lot of Luftie drivers who need stuff to shoot down. The flight sim world doesn't revolve around 2-3 allied plane types after all, it would be mighty boring if it did

Have these devs not ever played the game?
Keeping the bomber level to bomb is so hard without a guage is so hard i am limited to dive bombing and its such a wast of great planes like the HE111 that i loved so much in IL2.
Sad.

Like Jimbop pointed out, there is a thread running right now on the main CoD page of the forums that explains everything you need to know about the 111. I'm not going to lie and pretend we had adequate coverage of these things in the manual, but a group of people in the community are so active in testing things out that we now know how to bomb effectively in the Blenheim and 111, some people on the Russian servers are also using the Br.20 and the Ju88 is the same as the 111, we are just hoping its gyrocompass will be fixed in the next patch to allow us to use the autopilot.
In that thread you will also find links to videos on youtube, known issues/bugs and their workarounds, plus a link to my initial tutorial on bombsights and autopilots and links to the ATAG server forums were most of the testing takes place.
There IS a level stabilizer and its built into the plane's autopilot. Just read the community-provided documentation and you'll be good to go after a few practice runs
P.S.
Thanks everybody for keeping it civil and interfacing with our community liaison in a proper, polite manner. Negative opinions and expressing disappointment is not grounds for bans, rudeness is.
I think you can all see that when we stick to the purpose of the thread everything goes fine: read the update, ask your questions and if BlackSix knows the answer he'll come back and post it.
Keep it like this please. My exam season is over, i have a 3 week break and i'll be watching the update threads like an obsessive maniac
They will remain on-topic and informative no matter the cost, even if i have to spend 2-3 hours a day to delete off-topic or insulting posts and hand out forum infractions instead of flying the sim.
I really hope i won't have to but will if i have to, because the purpose of the thread is to be able to ask questions and easily browse through any answers given. Let's keep it running like it is and everything will be fine for all of us
