Willy__ Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Anyways, back on topic: did the devs gave any ETA on the next patch ?
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) You can be glad she's actually called Tante Ju Definetly nothing racist about it, it means "aunt Ju". It was it's inofficial nickname based on it's outstanding reliability under extreme conditions, versatility, flight characteristics and most important because it was the backbone of the transport Geschwader bringing supplies to the front and transporting wounded soldiers from the battlefield to hospitals (sometimes they served as mobile hospitals themself). All that gave it a lovely character and eventually it's famous nickname. Edited January 27, 2015 by Stab/JG26_5tuka
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Anyways, back on topic: did the devs gave any ETA on the next patch ? They had stated that it was at least two weeks out.
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 No, it doesn't... Especially when there is no foundation to what is being said. what ever you don't work were I do.
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 what ever you don't work were I do. You're right about that much. How about that Tante Ju?

Jade_Monkey Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Anybody else still excited for the Ju52? Nice pic!! Now we only need the desert maps

Feathered_IV Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Aw man. I wish it were me beetling along at zero feet and not some AI. 1
Trooper117 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Most people just want to shoot the bloody thing down! 1
6./ZG26_McKvack Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Most people wants to fly the bloody thing* 7
Fortis_Leader Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Definitely looking forward to Ju-52s. Will be fun to taxi up on their six and calmly take them down with the Lagg's 37mm have new, challenging targets to intercept. Could be fun to fly them as well I suppose, though I'd have to find some way of sorting out throttles for 3 engines when I've only got a Thrustmaster throttle.
Feathered_IV Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 AI is very rare in MP, so onliners won't be seeing much of it unless it becomes flyable. Sorry guys.
Potenz Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 AI is very rare in MP, so onliners won't be seeing much of it unless it becomes flyable. Sorry guys. +1 we need her to be flyable
6./ZG26_McKvack Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I wonder how much it takes for the devs to accept and make her flyable Pilots, rise your pitchforks!!!!
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I wonder how much it takes for the devs to accept and make her flyable Pilots, rise your pitchforks!!!! Just a prefounder campaign hopefully
Trooper117 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 It's a needed historical aircraft for the period and can be used in any theatre. I'm just happy it will end up in game even as an AI target.
Solmyr Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) If it appears in the hangar, it should be released flyable !!! :-) It's the first thing that came to my mind looking at this nice screenshot... Sometimes dreams look so real... Edited February 2, 2015 by Solmyr
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Maybe we should hack STALIN's account to figure out. Anybody interested? :D
No601_Swallow Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 From a technical point of view, once they've developed the simming tech of modelling three engines, think of all the other three engined aeroplanes they can add to the game!

I dont think thats a major problem. In fact the game engine can already handle 4 engines(ILya Muromet) and it have already been stated that the Ju-52 will get a FM in the same quality as the flyable planes

In fact the game engine can already handle 4 engines(ILya Muromet) and it have already been stated that the Ju-52 will get a FM in the same quality as the flyable planes I know. The "humour" (such as it was) in my post hinged on the fact that three engines is a bit of an oddity, at least for WWII aeroplanes. I can't think of any others off the top of my head. Personally, I'd love the '52. I'd also love the other factors that others have mentioned to be available: supplies payloads, unload/reload routines, parachute drops, etc. Would be great. Incidentally, with the Ju52 available, hopefully, online servers might start inserting AI flights into their missions. An AI resupply run into Gumrak every 20 or 30 minutes which would need to be defended or intercepted would add a dynamic and exciting goal-oriented dimension to online servers, it seems to me.

I understand now. Yea i cant think of any other plane with three engines either. I am really curios how it would be flying the 52 ingame and see how different the plane acts with an extra engine compared to the usual 2 engine aircrafts. If they make it flyable it will be the first 3-engine plane with AFM on the market

6./ZG26_5tuka Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) Originally the Ju 52 has a single engine (Ju52/1m - 1m meaning 1 Motor) Single eniged aircraft were prone to mechanical failures by that time though. As he was appealing for a major ariliner contract Junkers found a solution in fiiting it with 3 Pratt and Whitney engines and increasing it's reliability. The new model is the famous Ju 52/3m (3 Motor). The 3 engined setup was indeed inspired by Italien designs of that time. It could basicly fly with any engine shut or just the central engine, which was a remarkabel capebility by the time civil flight was still very dangerous. Other design influrencing aspects were the Treaty of Versaille prohibiting germans to build piston engined planes beyond a set speed limit, small field airstrips and scare ressources. Considering all those aspects combined with a politically and financially highly weakened country the result is even more amazing. To me the Ju 52 simlpy is the flying "Volkswagen". It's simple, good looking and a classic getting the job done. Edited February 2, 2015 by Stab/JG26_5tuka
EAF19_Marsh Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) I would pay $xx (in the RoF business model) to have this included if it were explained as part of a coherent plan, rather than a project destined for who-the-hell-knows-what. Come on, guys; you have a captive audience here if you would just revert to some form of open and honest exchange. Edited February 2, 2015 by EAF19_Marsh

Come on, guys; you have a captive audience here if you would just revert to some form of open and honest exchange. Yeah, and we likely all would... Revert to what..? Jason came in and let us know that the announcement they were planning got pushed... Thus, the gameplan is at most two weeks out... It sounds like unlocks are on the way out (at least for some of us...) We've seen a Macchi in the works (maybe not the best choice...) and the Ju52 looks great... Zeus' map (and campaign) is on the way... MY FRIGGIN' HITSOUNDS FINALLY WORK... What more is there to want right now?
EAF19_Marsh Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 I love your blog, FalkeEins; embrace me, brother There is a lot of money - really - ready to be invested if the team can get their communications duck in a row. I hope this works out; I really do..
Rjel Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 How many did the Ford Tri-motor have? Is that a trick question? 1

What more is there to want right now? Speaking of hit sounds, how did you get that to work? When my cockpit gets shot up or my wings or anything really (which is often) I never hear anything, I just see the dreaded this and that destroyed notifications on the sidebar. I could be taking rounds and have no idea until its too late. I changed the startup.cfg file that I saw in another thread, but no joy.
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Speaking of hit sounds, how did you get that to work? You can read about it here: http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/12468-hit-sounds-revisited/?do=findComment&comment=225499 Change the number to 128 . There are still sound issues but on a far less frequent basis for me since adjusting it.

There is still the sound bubble issue and I don't always hear every one (like I believe we should) but the .ini change has done a lot.

SCG_Space_Ghost Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Do you have a sound card or you use the onboard sound??? Quality onboard. If it has worked for every other title (including those with native 5.1) it should suffice here too.
