Thx B6 for this update again but....

How many times we will hear "soon" or "very soon"? Very soon it means for me in Sunday or Saturday, not more than next Friday.
For me this news from Today isnt very good for Us, fans of the new IL-2. Still no patch, no details ect.
DX9?
Why? How many users here has a signature with Windows XP and old g.cards? 5-10%? You wrote to us - we are "near ready" but we work on DX9. So 90% of CoD users must wait for small part of users of XP or its a only reason to put again "we work on..." and "very soon..".

If id like to have simulator with support of DX9 I can take shortcut of IL-2 1946 from my desktop and no problem with my nerves, bugs ect.

Sorry for this, but the last OFFICIAL patch was in OCTOBER 2011. Till now not any official update. Its a wrong way. Please show us progress of Your TEAM. Give us this next alpha/beta/charlie patch + official patch and work on DX9 till the end of the Year for 5-10% users of CoD, no problem with this.
You have 350 small bugs in Bugtracker. Just one its support DX9...
Wrong way for me.

In the first way we need:
1/better AI
2/FM/CEM/Avionics (improve as in bugtracker)
3/clouds like before alpha 1.06 but with good fps (molecular problem)
4/smokes with good fps (molecular problem)
5/less stuttering near the ground (like in alpha 1.06 + better)
6-349/.... bugs from 2bugtracker.com/projects/cod
350/ DX9.

I hope the next update give to us next beta patch and in one month we will have officiall Steam patch. In October will be One Year from the last update.

Please change Your priority and I hope this "very soon" means less than:



Have a good weekend too!

The Dx9 support, will it be mandatory for upgrades beyond IL-2 CoD too?

I'd suggest it would as it would be on the same engine... I'm just hoping and praying to every single one of the gods that this DX9 issue is actually fixed, and therefore not an issue, before any later additions are released. The team have promised to fix this game before releasing anything else in the series so.... let's hope they stick to that. lol

If I was a gambling man, I'd say DX9 support wont be listed on the box of the next release

I wonder if it is wise to keep the large majority of users waiting in order to satisfy the small minority who still uses DX9 ...

Dear Moderators,

Can we have a separate thread where people can ask why they are supporting DX9 and where we can continue to reply each time?

Thanks

We all get why they are doing DX9. The thing is, it was on the box a year ago and it hasn't been working for a year, so whats the big rush to do it now? Unless there is a lawsuit from some DX9 guy, can't they just back burner it until they fix important stuff? Something tells me that someone who can't afford a DX10 card, can't afford a lawyer to make an issue out of it either.

I would guess this DX9 "because it says so on the box" fiasco is just another stall tactic and gets everyone to focus their anger on "those pesky DX9 folks" instead of 1C.
