Friday 2011-01-28 Dev. update and Discussion

[Gromic]

Thanks for the update. Very appreciative as always. I can't wait to see just how complex CoD will be.

Pic 1. must be the surprise Oleg mentioned. Will she be in the collector's edition?

Cheers.

Folks,

1. The beautiful girl in the picture is not a cheap marketing ploy. You've all seen her before in the Spitfire from Igromir. She's the girl you'll all be flying with.
PS. I'm the guy who hated the cheap love story tacked onto the 1969 film, but I love this particular angle of our sim. Trust me on this.

2. If you expect something new every week, you kind of maybe expect too much at this point. We're going to drown you in videos in the coming weeks. The development diaries Oleg introduced you to will absolutely flood you with info on every single aspect of the sim. They're just not ready today.

3. I still can't believe we're discussing tracers. I know it's our own fault for making them look like glowing sperm in the original and allowing you to get used to them. They're correct now. They're perfection. They're ideal. They'll never change. OK?

Thanks! She is the ground controller voice? Looking forward to the video updates, sounds like it will be interesting.

I'd take on the whole luftwaffe with all their aces for her.

2. Thank you. I'm not worried. I know the game will deliver.

I shot at night and day with tracers and i love them.
One question. Due to the type of powder burning in the tracer bullets, they burned in different colors. So far we only saw white tracers in the shots. Are we goiung to see different color tracers like in il-2, based on the composition of the powder burning?


Thank you for all the hard work gents. Cant wait for the day when I'll have to take on the whole Luftwaffe.

Actually, any insurance wonldn't let you fly a spit unless you have at least 100 hours on T6 and some aerobatic experience

Personally I don't like the mix of a sim like BoB and a love story. I can understand that Luthier is under the charm of this unreachable creature but I would prefer not to see a love story overlapping with the gameplay (strong personal emotions can lead to bad marketing choices, bad marketing choices can lead to anger and anger can lead to ... ). If one wants to see some nice 3D girls have a look at GTA4 but this kind of feature wouldn't fit a flight sim.

But maybe I'm wrong as I see all the enthousiastic reactions all around. I think that you guy's spend too much time on the web and today it's friday night so cut the machine and enjoy your sortie

I think you're all crazy.
