Finkeren Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Because only the official skins are "global" meaning all players have them and can see them in MP. It's not a major issue, but imagine if when the Midway installment comes out, there were only 1 historical and 1 default US Navy skin for the Wildcat, the rest of them being for British Martlets or some other nation that flew the F4F? People would be crying foul and demanding more skins that fit the theater. It's not terribly important, but certainly worth mentioning, and if people choose to get their panties in a twist at the mere mentioning of the issue, that's really on them.

Dutchvdm Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) I still dont understand those bad reactions to those skins, it is the easiest way to change for the community. The Devs are reacting to us when there is a wrong 3D model, that is far more complex to change than anything else. So, this instant bitching about "skins" I still can`t understand... Im a develope myself for another sim and if the community starts bitching ... it is the way you ask for other, or different things ... otherwise it has a bad taste For the Spitfire i don't really care that much, and therefore i understand it because there where not a lot of soviet scheme's to choose from. But from some of the Luftwaffe aircraft i really don't get some of the choices made for skins. For some of the aircraft there are hardly any historical skins that where at the BOX front-line. Like the Ju-88 for instance. And yes, a lot of the community skins are superb, but using them online feels a bit weird for me. When using a custom winterskin on a winter MP server makes not a lot of sense. Just my 2 cents. It's not that i don't appreciate all the work, but i would like it that every aircraft got at least 3 or 4 skins that where used at the BOX theaters. Grt M Edited June 16, 2017 by Martijnvdm
Guest deleted@50488 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Regarding the Spitfire, that's an aircraft I really look forward to play in IL.2 All of the recreations in other sims I have used fall short of providing what I believe to be the feel of flying such a machine, so, IL.2, just as with other aircraft models, is my last and successful, so far, hope :-)
Dutchvdm Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Bad habbits, that's what it is... 1C / 777 has acustomed their users to weekly updates, which I find irrealistic for the complexity and amount of work behind the scenes.... Of course just like when educating a youngster, the more we give her / him that is really not useful, worth the have, and just develops a frenetic search for more, irrespective of the true necessity for it, the worst the end outcome for their lives, specially in times where the words "give time" / "wait a while more" have such a negative connotation... I seriously would rather prefer to know that the good reason is that the 1C / 777 Team is enjoying some highly recommended and deserved days off, in holidays - just as we on this side also call for so easily.... And again, I have to ask: Where in the designation "DD" is it written that it must be at a weekly pace ???? Jason said they had the intention to make a DD every week when possible. Although that's not a promise, and it's in there rights to skip a week every once in a while, i really do think this is very important to make these updates. Especially for an early access game. People pay up front to show commitment. Showing updates every week is a perfect way to manage exceptions and create excitement within the player-base. Developing software and delivering it with a big bang after more then a year of silence is a perfect recipe for disaster.... This is not rocket science. Grt M
Finkeren Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 I wasn't terribly excited about the Spit to begin with, but all the hype has rubbed off on me, and I'm really looking forward to trying her out in BoX.
Feathered_IV Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 If they have been this quiet, it most likely means they are working extra hard on something pretty special.
Finkeren Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 If they have been this quiet, it most likely means they are working extra hard on something pretty special. Nah. They're probably just chillin' and kicking back. It's not like this team has a reputation of being hard working and delivering more than they have promised.... Oh wait... 1
Brano Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 As for me,I don't care. I will be updating the game most probably when Kuban map is out.Missed 2 updates already. Not excited about spit at all.Lynch me :D
Herne Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 As for me,I don't care. I will be updating the game most probably when Kuban map is out.Missed 2 updates already. Not excited about spit at all.Lynch me :D Heresy I say !! Burn him !!
FlyingNutcase Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Anticipation is half the fun. Good things coming very soon. Some of you guys seem to think that Jason and the team have cracked under the stress of the "Spitfire skins" kerfuffle. After all they've been through, it would at least make a good story, if not wholeheartedly tragic, lol. More likely, 1C:777 headhunted by foreign power for political advantage. Better money, better hours, more fun.
Guest deleted@50488 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Ok, just let me get my hands in the Spitfire and you'll see what's a WINNER !!!! Edited June 16, 2017 by jcomm

ITAF_Rani Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 It was interesting to see the reactions after the Spitfire was shown to the public ... and most of the morons here like "mimimimi to few soviet skins.... mimimi" Whats wrong with you guys .. those are skins!!!! SKINS!!!! You can paint yourself. Im realy happy with the model, with their amount of work they put into this plane and damn i am happy to have it in the new il2 game. So, long story short .. thanks Devs +1
Wulf Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Hey c'mon guys, stay focussed. I thought we were burning Brano for heresy? Anyone got a Zippo? 1
Guest deleted@50488 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 plus, even in weeks when we don't get DDs, we do get, through this thread, DDDs It's a Meta-DD guys ! Be Happy !!!!
A-E-Hartmann Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) I would be delighted to see. From the cockpit screens of the Hs 129 and Stipfire.+ Pictures of skins for Hs 129.It would be really great. In the meantime I'm going to the bar. Edited June 16, 2017 by A-E-Hartmann 3
Finkeren Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Today to spit or not to spit? Not on a Friday I'd think.
Dutchvdm Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 I would be delighted to see. From the cockpit screens of the Hs 129 and Stipfire. + Pictures of skins for Hs 129. It would be really great. Yes please, that would be nice . Grt M 1

Herne Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Give us the spit jason, and I'll buy your scripted campaigns I promise !
Feathered_IV Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Hey c'mon guys, stay focussed. I thought we were burning Brano for heresy? Anyone got a Zippo? Not a zippo. It's too humane. I would suggest a generous coating of horseradish crème.
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Not a zippo. It's too humane. I would suggest a generous coating of horseradish crème. Wasabi balls.
Feathered_IV Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Wasabi balls. Really, there's no need for name calling... 2
Herne Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 Give us the spit jason, and I'll buy your scripted campaigns I promise ! Well I bought both campaigns, started playing through the first one and I'm enjoying the hell out of it in VR. Still looking forward to trying out that spit but wouldn't want the devs to throw it out there if they are not happy that it's ready. I do have a problem now though. Seems I have run out of stuff to buy . . .
Finkeren Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 P-39 pics or Kuban video today. I don't think they are ready to show off career mode yet.
Finkeren Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Gavrick is online. I wouldn't mind another excellent Gavrick DD crammed with intricate details either. Edited June 29, 2017 by Finkeren
Jade_Monkey Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 Gavrick is online.Nice stalking XD I look fwd to some pics of the map. We already saw some assets (ports, factories, lighthouses, cranes) in the editor, so im thrilled to see it all fit together in a map (and bomb it!!).
