=AVG=Zombie Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Dude! Looks sick!!! Cant wait to shoot it down with the even sexier Mig... 1
1CGS LukeFF Posted August 7, 2015 1CGS Posted August 7, 2015 Hooo guys, this model is really insane! Sorry if a post this again, but this shoot is really a dream. The landscape itself does look absoluty amazing. Great work guys, top quality here! Thank you very much. Finally a Macchi is coming in a flight sim, a real one. What a beauty! Both the external model and the cockpit are really nice, that is for sure. Like I wrote before, players are really going to enjoy this one.

Potenz Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 please devs make the water in order when a plane crash in the water the submerged parts can be visible under water apart from that the summer maps and 202 are coming superb
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 It is slipping my mind. What is the release target for summer maps again?
FuriousMeow Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 (edited) It is slipping my mind. What is the release target for summer maps again? Q3. And it's not just summer maps. It's two seasons of maps. Edited August 7, 2015 by FuriousMeow
TheBlackPenguin Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Looks fantastic! So, what wine goes with this? Red? White? How about food? Pizza? I guess I should eat...
BeastyBaiter Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Really looking forwards to this one, should be a lot of fun.

Thanks for sharing. Jason 1
EAF19_Swoop Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Looks beautiful and can't wait to fly her. Also many thanks Rani for sharing the history of your Granddad, what a career and log book!! Are we off to the North Africa eventually?
DD_Arthur Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Really interesting Rani. Thanks for sharing. Jason +1. Yes, thankyou Rani. These real family stories make the history come alive. Very nice update too.
Mags Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Great looking plane, devs. ...and Rani, thank you for your story. Great read!
KpgQuop Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Lordy! What a life you describe Rani. Thanks for sharing.
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Awesome. love individual history notes from actual people; instead of these propaganda documentaries.
[KWN]T-oddball Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 the 202 looks very nice and the summer maps looks so much better than the cocaine wasteland we have now, are there any other major improvements coming?
TheHighwayman Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I did some reading on this crate, and everything I read praised the plane, but dissed the armament as too light. How are beta testers finding the armament?
ram0506 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I did some reading on this crate, and everything I read praised the plane, but dissed the armament as too light. How are beta testers finding the armament? Just a few days, then you can find out yourself. But be sure, that also in this regard the plane will be close to the original one. 1
II/JG17KaC_Wolfe Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Are you going to implement 36 new hand gestures for Macchi pilots? lol...brilliant
Feathered_IV Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Great looking aircraft. I think I'll be ordering pizza that night.
Cybermat47 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Dude! Looks sick!!! Cant wait to shoot it down with the even sexier Mig... Sexy MiGs? But the MiG-15 isn't in this game...
Finkeren Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Currently on vacation in Rhodes, where we live right across from a pretty good Italian restaurant. Seems I will be eating Italian in hot summer weather all the time after I get home as well
Yankee_One Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I must say, that i was not much interested in the MC 202. But now i have seen these screenshoots and i truley cant wait. Fantastic job
Bearcat Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I am interested in any and every p[lane that comes to this sim.. I have my favorites of course.. but the more planes that are here the better it is IMO.. Once some of the other things that are already being worked on get squared away this sim will be even better than it is now.
Asgar Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 can't wait to fly this beauty. I'm also excited to see how much damage 12.7mm machine guns do in game
[CPT]milopugdog Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I'll probably fly this plane a bit. It was a favorite from WT, and it's something different for the axis powers
Freycinet Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Sexy MiGs? But the MiG-15 isn't in this game... MiG-3 coming soon... That shot of the Macchi over the blurry bridge is really great. Grazie Rani per raccontarci la storia del tuo nonno. Cosa ha fatto nel doppoguerra?
CF-105 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 can't wait to fly this beauty. I'm also excited to see how much damage 12.7mm machine guns do in game The LaGG-3's UBS already tears things up, and that's just a single 12.7 without HE rounds.
Finkeren Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 The LaGG-3's UBS already tears things up, and that's just a single 12.7 without HE rounds. ...but with almost twice the rate of fire and higher muzzle velocity. I have no doubt, that the Macchis armament will be enough, but its greatest asset will be the time of continuous fire.
