So how 'bout that Su26 hu?

+1

PCG: There’s a Su-26 amongst the flyables. How did this modern aerobatics plane end-up in the sim?

ILYA: We thought it would be a great way to prove the fidelity of our flight model. Not too many people can get behind the controls of a Heinkel and say “Yes, this handles just like the real thing.”. There are a lot of people who fly the Su-26 or similar aerobatics planes. Besides, a few of our modellers actually worked for Sukhoi back in the day, and one of them was even a member of the Su-26 design team. He designed the landing gear for the real thing, and then recreated it for us!

OLEG: Another reason we included the Su-26 is pilots from real aerobatic teams requested it. They used Il-2 for the training in the past. In Cliffs of Dover they can fly a real sport plane.

pretty much, alot of my interest in IL2 was derived from the Fact. The inclusion of the SU26 and the broad scope it would provide to this sim. Damnit i even posted at other flightsim developers forums suggesting that incorporating a similar idea would really broaden the scope of there software too.

sadly its not there, it took me aslong as it took to download the game to realise it wasnt included. Very sad. I certainly could not find any such official statement. but then official statements are hard to come buy on an official forum for an officially released game by the official owner and developer. Im getting officially tired now 1C. Do you care enough to communicate properly ? We understand the various teething problems associated but please inform us adequetly.

please 1c take a day off your hectic schedules. have some good times and spend an hour or two "not" keeping us in the dark. re format the forums, tidy it up, lay down the rules and lets proceed properly where this lovely lovely work of flightsim art is concerned.

EDIT : that Su-26 as a freebie would be very welcomed indeed. as well as being a good customer relations marketing idea. i know how cheeky it is to suggest that, but that is my expectation. You publicly touted it as content. not me. And if its payware upon principle im not buying it. i can live without it, and if that is so. then i'll sack this game instantly. Im patient and understanding which after all is what you are counting on right now.

it was a marketing gag, simple as that.

It was announcened up to March 24th by Oleg or an official that it was still planned on being in the game, only a few people knew it wasn't there anymore. no official statement. at this point its not a marketing gag anymore, it's false publicity.

But if they took it out temporarily and plan on putting it back in after they sorted out the game then no problem... It would be sad if they make us pay for it in a future extension... But I could go with that sadly enough... But if they just flat out give it up and never plan on implementing it it would really be back stabbing a select number of the il2 community imho.

Meanwhile I will not jump to any conclusions right now but I would like to have a dev or Luthier give me a simple answer:

-Will the Su26 ever be in this game?

I'm afraid my Russian's a little wee bit rusty xD hum... Could you be a little more specific on what he told you about it? And did he told you whatever he told you after or before the game release?

Tanslated from google:

About Oleg can say is Oleg.

Of Su-26, he will have super ultra special bonus, not yet announced by the English-speaking edishne game. About the Russian market still can not say, but it certainly can not promise that we do not plan to sell it, or any other aircraft at a time.

edit: removed. theres just no point in pretending we are not getting shafted for this su26.

Thanks scissors, and this message you translated from google was the 25th of Mars? Well anyways.... I guess I now know why he called it a super bonus... (Gotta pay for it xD)
