Thank you Oleg!

What a pleasure to see the implementation of features in BoB from the beginning to this day. It's like watching Rodin take a block of stone and create a wonderful piece of art..... all the while we're privy to the process. Thanks for the privilege.

I have my 12 year old nephew anticipating BoB. He's been playing IL2 since he was six and while he never cottoned to dog fighting, he makes one hell of a ground-pounder in a Jug or Sturmovik.


Have a good day.

The undulations in the ground in shot 2 are quite something. Subtle shadowing effects based on the angle of the sun. Can't get my head around the complexity of all this. I think those who complain just don't understand the technical achievements being presented in every subtle feature.

Very true...some I think don't take the time to consider the complexity, give/take to achieve decent game play on today's average PC.

Sorry Mr.OLEG MADDOX but real pilots of ww2 not have red or blue arrows for search enemy in the sky.

Real pilot use your eyes for search enemy in the sky.

I hope that those arrows are optional or the game simulation transform to arcade simulation.

il-2sturmovik 1946 not have arrows.
i remember CFS3 have the arrows.

1946 DOES have arrows & Oleg has already stated they are optional as they are in 1946, in this very thread.

Like it was in original Il-2 of 2001, then in Forgotten Battles, Ace Expancion Pack, Pacific Fightes and 1946 - there always was these arrows. Please pay attention and use other difficulty settings.
And again... You may switch them off... using other than settings for novices for outside views

In CFS3 was just one arrow in the center if I recall right. And its working by other way. As well as "onscreen radar" , etc

Don't waste your quality time with your son, getting wound-up about our dumb questions. We'll take care of that:

Some people just won't understand (chose not to understand?), even if you spell it out for them.

I can't believe that after all those years Il-2 is on market there's still someone out there who hasn't seen that arrows yet.
