Thanks! Nice update.

... again, nice aircraft, looks like a swiss cheese this time...

but what about the online problems with constant game crashes when in multiplayer, suddenly disappearing planes, poor visibility of planes and stuff, will that also be resolved with the next patch ?

And ..., WHEN will this next patch come, this spring, in summer, autumn next year ? When ? No mention about all that ... ?!

I don't think you'll ever hear anything about release dates from MG again, unless of course they're about to release something (the next day or so) and know it'll be this date. They got burned by missing previously published dates quite often so they now prefer to say not more than absolutely necessary.

... I fear you are right, ...

Benchmarks for the beta sound encouraging. Wasn't there plans to release the beta for public testing?

Good results on the optimising the graphic engine of the game. Well done team. The PC used for testing is even a bit slower than mine. Nice. Any info on the fixing memory leak and the fix for slowdowns (drop of FPS) when effects are near (dust, fire etc.)?

Great work an thx B6!
You can show us ANYTHING next time and be sure it's unexpected because nobody expects anything at all ^^ just kidding, I'd be stoked to see new features.

Excellent, thank you for the update all.

Ref reflections, they are very visible on exposed metal on well worn planes, just not at all visible on paint.

Impressive fps increase too, well over the 50%! can only echo the post that I hope stutter is eliminated and that it still looks the same as previously stated

These exact same reflections you see are there today, just toned down.

So, will you consider tune it up again?

Maybe we will set up

I can not tell yet accurate information on this

I guess this means it might be out in beta form soon, am I right?
