From the banana forum:-

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=32464

Good day everyone!

We continue to work on the patch. We’ve just completed all scheduled tasks dealing with performance improvements and will start on the list of various graphics glitches tomorrow. We’re also continuing to work on improving aircraft FM and system modules. These tasks will take at least four days, meaning we won’t being internal testing until next Friday at the earliest. If the internal test version is good and stable, it won’t take too long after that to release it to the public.

We also continue to introduce you to aircraft from our future not-yet-announced project. The official announcement is just a few short weeks away. Until then, we won’t be able to provide more details and answer specific questions, but please rest assured we aren’t in any way shape or form planning to move away from our reputation as the most realistic WWII sim on the market.

The plane we’re showing today is the famous Soviet LaGG-3 fighter that bore the brunt of the fighting alongside the I-16, Yak-1 and the MiG-3 in the most difficult early years of the war. Opinions on its quality differ greatly, however this forefather of the fearsome Lavochkin line of fighters remained in service with the Soviet VVS until the very end of the war.

(This screenshots from the special "viewer" and not the actual game engine).

Have a great weekend!

You know when people have a go at Iron Front for being buggy, and complain about not getting a second patch five days after the first patch was released on launch day I point them to Cliffs of Dover. Still waiting I see for the holy grail of updates.

Ya, very true. Too bad our community isn't as big as Blizzards. Can't wait to see the outcome of the S.Korea lawsuit.

Not for all the tea in China
Or the corn in Carolina
Never, never ever
They're running after you babe

Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe

Something nasty in your garden's waiting
Patiently, till it can have your heart
Try to go but it won't let you
Don't you know it's out to get you running
Keep on running
They're running after you babe

Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe

Your world is turning,
From night to day,
Your dream is burning far, far away

Into the blue,
You and I,
To the circus in the sky,
Captain Kids,
On the sand,
With the treasure close at hand,
In the land of make believe

In the land of make believe

Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe

Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe

I've got a friend who comes to tea,
And no-one else can see but me,
He came today,
But had to go,
To visit you?
You never know



It's just a frikking joke so calm doon. biggrin I'll wait to see whats apparently what with the official blah blah, just please, for the love of all that is Holy......Don't Flame Me, Bro!!!!

hahaha

That has been the first paragraph of every "update" for a year. Might as well drop it now, they're not fooling anybody anymore...

Compare this to a bit of fun I wrote a couple of months earlier:

"We are working very hard on a number of things which unfortunately I can't specify. Among other things we are basically kinda working day and night on increasing the possibility for performance increases under certain conditions on certain systems under certain situations and should be able to give a more detailed progress report at a later, at the moment not really defined moment in the future. The problem with FSAAA is basically fixed, we know exactly what to do, it just doesn't work yet. There are massive changes to stuff that's really complicated so I won't bother you with the details. Rest assured a lot of things are greatly improved. Or will be improved. Or, we plan to improve them. Or think about planning to improve them. We're totally in the process of preparing for implementation of KI-fixing programming preparation, so expect massive improvements within an undisclosed time frame. FMs will or will not change in various ways and we will have a great surprise or something resembling a surprise, or something we think maybe some kind of surprise for some of you soon. Which is, some time in the future

BTW here's a picture of an I-16's gear assembly and some highly-detailed russian conifers."


It's almost funny.
