So down for those two! ?

Im expecting something about the U2 this week. That model looked more than ready 

 

Yeah but I guess it's not only the model, they'll need to update the Career for it too, they'll need new, specific missions for it and squadrons, etc.

I was thinking that the P47 would be done late this month considering that the cockpit needs texturing, animations, and the turbosupercharger is being modeled ( unless one or more of these things are done already), and testing, am I being too optimistic?

Not sure that's even possible with this team. Remember the 'month of surprises'?!

I hope for this month as well, but seeing as they still have much to do I'm starting to think it wont be here until october.

Details of the new gameplay for the Po-2 and how air-ambulance, recon, intruder and artillery spotting objectives are reflected in teamplay and individual scores.  :happy:

I confidently predict no new BoX a/c before late October.

 

No way I could possibly be wrong about this...

Is the Po2 going to be up for pre order? Not sure if the devs said anything about that.

Seems like it's getting too late earlier and earlier each week.

*insert drummer joke here*

 

Whats the definition of perfect pitch?

Getting the banjo in the skip first try!

 

Incidentally, I had a total breakthrough last night. I've had TrackIR for nearly a year now, but it's never been optimal. I set up with @SYN_Requiem's very generously provided profile, installed blackout curtains, attached receiver to laptop screen with copious gaffer tape, etc. But the durn thing would crap out at the worst times (i maintain that this and only this is the reason I am combat ineffective 99% of the time), which made it impossible to reliably track bogies and generally made playing a stressful experience. I gaffer taped up my whole headset and mic, which improved matters somewhat but it still wasn't right. I was convinced that this was due to the fact that I wear glasses, and that the reflections from my lenses were confusing to TrackIR. Not ideal, but oh well, I would just learn to live with it.

 

UNTIL! After a couple of missions last night, I had to go use the relief tube (don't you find there's something liberating about peeing with your TrackIR antlers on?), and as I dutifully execute the Post Pee Tactical Hand Wash (PPTHW), I glance into the bathroom mirror and spot it. There is a metallic button (for reasons I am told are to do with 'fashion') on the baseball cap I use with TrackIR. What a fool I've been! Two minutes with scissors, and I have a button free hat, and a seamless and infinitely improved and smoother TrackIR experience!

 

Which is to say I should be approximately 7% more deadly online now. So that'll bump me up to 8% overall...

@Diggun a friend of mine had something similar a few month back. He changed everything with its track IR until he discovered he wore a t-shirt with reflective bands... You're not alone mate!

But hey, what is "late" guys?

Aren't we always "late" for something? "Late" is our way to tell that the immensity of the void that is our future can be put into one word so it can be conceptualized and we can actually live with that, but hey... we are all "late" and always will be!

 

Besides, I'll put an euro on some Po2 news for next DD ?

I keep seeing the PO2 come up in discussions but can't figure out what module it's supposed to be part of. Have the Devs mentioned/promised it at any point and I've missed it? What's driving all the hype?

It’s a collector’s plane currently in development.

Yeah, you’ve missed a whole bunch. It was first confirmed by Jason almost a year ago, where he told us in a thread, that they were trying out a 3rd party developer to make 3D models and that the Po-2 would be the testbed for that cooperation. Since then it has been mentioned in several DDs and we have been shown screenshots of both the 3D model and the plane in flight within the sim.

Really? It's a hot chick in an airplane. Not like she is naked or anything. Nothing wrong with it.
