Future plan about BOS

[1./KG4_Blackwolf]

I'm with you man. 50 on Clod, 335 on ROF(over 3 years and some months)200 on BOS, me and a gift, 60 on DCS ww2, 50 on A10,50 on blackshark 2, 50 on p51,50 on..well I could go on and on but if my wife read this i'd be in real trouble.( yeah hun the car needed shocks and brakes and stuff, that's where all the money went!)

If the sales are not good or lower than they thought. I don't see it going to any spin off's. I hope it does well. Only time will tell. If the unlocks are removed I could see buying more, or if it went to a ROF type of plan, i'd do it. Wait before you throw your arms up and say "How could you!" I don't buy into the pay to win BS. I think it a great way to get into a game. Why buy 13 or 15 fighters you will never use? Or buy bombers you wont fly? Anyways that's for another discussion and topic.

 

I hope the game does great and we can have a part in what the future will hold for it.

most likely, Ju 52 will be added in januar-februar'15

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

plans for near future will be officially published somewhere in end'14 - beginning'15.

 

and personally i think that at least it will be - MiG-3, I-16, P-40E, and Bf 110, Bf 109 E, IAR and Ju 88 - but, i just dont know thoughts of devs, plus, maybe, will be something for Velikiye Luki.

Musn't forget the trusty P-39. Also, make the Ju52 flyable for the second release (with selectable cargo types - including animated livestock - inside!!)

How about a P-51

[=LD=Hethwill]

How about a P-51

 

Were any of those ever sent to Soviet Air Force through the lend lease program ?

 

Did the Luftwaffe use any squadron of captured Ponies in the East Front ?

 

You are talking about another game in the future not BoS for sure. 

[1PL-Husar-1Esk]

I think you missed our Ilya Muromets Early Access we launched recently and we are working to fix more bugs in ROF and we released other updates just a little while ago. And Luke has been continually working on improving the Career in small ways for a while now. We have not exactly been ignoring ROF or WWI.

Thank You for cheering me up. Rise of Flight is in my opinion best sim on the planet. And yes there are so many things to do , ww1 air warfare fans are starving. Hurry up good man and feed us.

Yes. The P-40 was used in this theater? My knowledge of this theater is limited I admit

[150GCT_Veltro]

Yes it was (ETO), as for Hurricane, P-39 and Spitfire. Mustang didn't.

Hmmm - that didn't work out great for Microsoft Flight.

[=LD=Hethwill]

I agree. P-40 now, soon, right away, hurry up, please.

 

Oh, Lend Lease Pack...

 

Pee Footy pack... ten dolla G.I. ... ten dolla boom boom Pee Footy

No, Ju-52 was announced IA only, that's why devs aren't working on a cockpit (won't be flyable).

Now that we have the base we just need more planes and a Summer/Autumn map. Despite loosing some respect for the Devs after recent unprofessional comments from Loft and leaked comments from Jason that were below unprofessional , I would still buy new planes and maps. I am waiting for roadmap and surprises.

 

In the same time some of my squadmates have little hope that we will see any expansions, I am often laughed at when I display my optimism when we talk on Teamspeak.

 

Time will tell , so far most of us did our part , we bought premium versions and gave positive reviews around the net. The rest depends on the sales.

very important news for online players -


@our NETwork are not ideal, and a bit old (2008 year). so, there need some re-faktoring, but this is not in our near plans.....

but next step in improvement of online - 48 players - and this is december'14 - januar'15.
 
 
if there again will be claims, again will be 32, if no, will be 64 players.@

 

Thanks for bringing it here!
Cheers,

 

Musn't forget the trusty P-39.

most likely, p-39 only for next step, after summer BOS (ie Kuban)
 

How about a P-51

for example -

"...Ф.3 ВА, оп.4495. д.57: "26 сентября 1942 г. группа Федорова совершила 21 с/в. В течении дня проведен один воздушный бой с участием 14 Ме-109 и до 18 Ю-88 с 3 Як-7б 2 Як-1 и 2 Мустанг. Сбитых самолетов не наблюдали; Як-1 л-т Кутовой с боевого задания не вернулся. Базирование гр. Федорова на а.Бошарово в составе боеготовных 3 Як-1, 2 Як-7, 1 Мустанг."

ie looks like that is exactly these 10 Mustang Mk. I, were delivered in USSR, in early'42, and were tested in front regiments (also in NII VVS etc).

but personally i not sure that devs will to do even ALL other L-L planes, like all models of P-39, Spitfire 5/9 etc etc etc.....
 

The P-40 was used in this theater?

in 1942-43 in Stalingrad area definately were used P-40E, most likely Tomahawk (in PVO), also there were several P-40K, plus, in 42-43 USSR got some number of P-40L.

Weird! With ROF, they said that developing the FM was the majority of the work as justification for not adding non-flyable AI aircraft.  I wonder at how different the two engines must be!

Bad news for Mp friends

 

  Tell me, is there any progress in increasing the number of players on the server? At least 40-50 (20-25 people per team). Or should we ask for a separate DServer with the increased number of players - especially for voynushki, and simultaneously test more (than 32 players) downloading?
 

LOFT:
 Do not plan to. We believe that 32 is enough. Our network is not the most ideal and was developed in 2008. Needs some refactoring of the entire network. And this is no even in the plans. Now, we believe that it is necessary to increase the number of servers and not the number of players on a single server.

_____________________________________ different answer:

 

The number of players on the servers will be increased to 48 in the next step. This will happen in December and January. If there are complaints about the problem, the number of players will be returned by 32, if the complaint is not, will be increased to 64. So it is clear?

Pls wake me up in January

[Yakdriver]

moving forward step by step, like in the early access days.

works for me.

I'm not sure I am expecting a simple expansion pack for BOS. I'm thinking the next release will be Kuban but the roadmap will help in December. If it's BOS summer/expansion then yeah no P-39 or flyable -52. I admit I had fun with the CLOD manual prop in the 109E. So summer maps with 109E's and I 16's could be fun for a bit. I'd mostly like to keep moving forward in time as opposed to back personally.

 

If Kuban they (39/52) are a must. How soon til the Hs129 makes an appearance? Always fascinated by that bird as well.

They said it too for BoS, at first.

But then they listened to founders/community demand and changed their mind about their "no AI only plane" statement. Though, they said Ju-52 was kind of an exception so we shouldn't expect other AI only plane in future.

Future plans about BOS .... concerning issues like "more aircraft" and "campaign", I`d like to see the JU52, the JU88, the I16 (Rata) and the MIG-3 and a longer campaign that starts before operation "Uranus" with a summer(autumn)-map  

... after all the current issues are ironed out of course 

[Original_Uwe]

I'd venture that the planes we are moat likely to see go right in line with the aircraft lost from BoM, since we know that some of the planes in BoS are (less detailed) cut and pastes from BoM.

Until they allow access to custom skins, missions,  decent offline campaigns and the basic ability to alter the video settings lots of us have washed our hands of it.

This game has A LOT to discredit it in the eyes of old time players and new purchasers alike. Should we just pretend we see nothing?
