So far so good.

Honestly, I can't notice much AI improvements, but immediately appreciated better FM, a single, well harmonized output, on the contrary of previous one, which seemed resulting from conflicting equations. Significantly higher inertia, but giving overall sensation of realism.

Thanks TD!

P.S.: can't understand "No HUD Icons" option in Difficulty Menu (BTW, nice, rationalized layout)- anybody knows?

If you can't see AI improvements compared to 4.10, than honestly I don't know what game you have been playing. smile

Loving the 4.11 as well btw.

Park yourself in front of an average AI and see how long it takes to get your A@@ shot off and then tell us you can't see the difference. LOL. It's excellent!!!

Been to long, but it could be turning on and off the red and blue triangles you get in wonderwoman view.

Great job!... Been waiting for this patch for quite some time now, and here it is! Thanks so much, Team Daidalos clapping

Having flown a dozen or so quick missions in a fighter against some bombers I've had an impression that the sniper's skills and fire lethality of the rear gunners have been somewhat mitigated wink

My comp is well below today's standards and still I can't complain about the overall simulation performance; kudos to the developers. There's one thing, though, a hotfix has been uploaded, containing a new version of the DT.dll; when I installed it I experienced a CTD on the first UI screen after quitting a QMB mission. No problems with the original 4.11 version smile

All in all, my respect, gents! smile

The only thing I have experienced is that the tail gunners seem to be a little too passive now. After firing at the first plane they have just rotated to the right and quit firing at any planes. I always hated it when they wasted there ammo firing at nothing but now they just won't fire at anything.


Take up an SBD in a QMB mission and switch to the tail gunners position and try to fire the guns. You will find that unless you turn off the autopilot you can't do it. You will also still be flying the plane just like in a coop mission. That was a bit weird until I figured out what was happening.

For the most part I like what I am seeing though. thumbsup
