When will we get the Clouds back?
answer: - lower level clouds are back - high altitude clouds still
being worked on

will see pilots animations in the future like bailing out open canopy etc.
answer: Maybe in the sequel.

You mentioned ages ago the devs were working on improving the ground
handling of aircraft. Is this included in the current beta?
answer: Maybe in the sequel.

Yada yada yada....

I believe that most of the answers is a total disaster when you come
to think of it .......maybe , no , show us the bug , etc.

This last patch improved the landscape immensely by removing the objectionable 'dark square at altitude' and making the whole landscape look like, well, a landscape. I'm frankly amazed that there hasn't been a huge roar of approval for this from the forum members. Or maybe most of 'em still buzz around Hawkinge at zero feet, I dunno........

I was immensely pleased to see this in the last patch and still am.

Yes, you are right. I've not enough information about CloD and I've a lot of restrictions on the disclosure of details.
But, the community has very simple choice:
1) communication as is. It will improve over time as I study language and I obtain new data.
2) no communication. My main task is publication of news and Friday updates, I can do only it.

I'll tell more about our situation on Monday.

yes, the info is canceled. He promised to give us news without asking his boss first... (see earlier posts)

the way as i see it
is that CLOD is an experiement for them just to continue and improve the next sequel
will not going to see new stuff but im pretty sure this sim will get some fixes in the end

Guys please try and stay on topic and not derail the thread. I know its tempting sometimes to take a snipe at B6 or the current state of the game, but please lets try keep this a happy place so B6 can feel like he wont get slammed every time he trys to communicate. Remember he is still very much a beginner with English and is relying on translation for some of the questions.

There's a protocol in place for releasing information and he has to follow it. Sometimes that means we dont get the answers we want but please appreciate he wants to help and the devs also want to be able to relate what information they can in what is still a changing target for the game. They want to learn about what's important to us. If this turns into arguments for 5 pages every day I can assure you both sides will loose interest in being productive very quickly.

I have just deleted 13 posts from the last few pages without any infractions, as I know sometimes people need to vent and sometimes its hard not to respond. But please dont be baited, just report the post. Certainly this isnt the place to cause or have an argument. Please stay on topic.
Cheers
Phat.

BIG Question for you B6.

Now we know some of the features wont make it into COD and the majority of the work is around fixes:-

Will we be able to recreate the intended "Battle of Britain" scenario from COD within the new sequel using its additional content and features?

For example, use the current or future channel map and all existing COD assets, models etc, combined with the new features and models from the sequel to make a more complete "Battle of Britain" Theatre?

This is one of the most important questions for the community as there has been a feeling that there is not enough content (assets, ships, aircraft) to truly represent the BOB.

Although it wont help some people feel any less like they've "spent money on an incomplete product" It will give most of us hope for realising the "Battle of Britain" dream that many of us bought the game for.

I realise this is potentially a controversial minefield for you so please consider carefully.

Fhat, I'm sorry.
I've very strict ban on the disclosure of such information about the sequel. This question will be disclosed in the announcement or in a later interview. This concern to our strategic growth plans. Once again I apologize.

New types of weather are planned for the sequel. I'm not sure what we'll do something new for CloD

Understood, you need to protect your intellectual property and strategy! Oh well you can only ask..

Here's to hoping
