MrNoice Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 yes the I 153 would be really cool and x times better than an old slow unarmed plane
Trooper117 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Fw 189, flying glass house would be neat I was told by Han last year that the Fw 189 was a possibility for the game
Trooper117 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 yes the I 153 would be really cool and x times better than an old slow unarmed plane It's pretty obvious that you are only fixated on zooming around in a fighter and shooting things down... but for many here, WWII aviation has many facets and roles that need representing in the game. Many get immense satisfaction in taking an old and slow aircraft into a very dangerous situation, trying to complete a specific task and return without damage or injury. That in itself is a huge challenge and rewarding if done right. 4
Luftschiff Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Oh for sure, the gorgeous Fw 189 is at the top of my wishlist, I just figure that a new plane would warrant more fanfare than "something cool" - seems more likely to be some smaller feature that they've wanted to do for a while but haven't had time, like improved fuel management or female pilot models, both of would be very welcome!I feel like a kid in a candy store.
216th_Lucas_From_Hell Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) A more or less off topic question but I wonder why is this good old biplane is commonly referred to as the Po-2 internationally. It started its service in the days of type-based designations (I, R, U, SB, TB, etc.), everyone called it by its original designation U-2 throughout the war just like they called the I-16 like that instead of Po-16 yet nobody in the English world calls the dear U-2 a U-2 any more!

Blooddawn1942 Posted October 13, 2017 Author Posted October 13, 2017 gib DD 175 I keep wondering, what You're trying to express, by throwing in german vocabulary without syntax and no grammatically context. By the way, "gib" is an imperative, which is never a kind way to ask for something.
THERION Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I keep wondering, what You're trying to express, by throwing in german vocabulary without syntax and no grammatically context. By the way, "gib" is an imperative, which is never a kind way to ask for something. You're right - perhaps a simple lack of politeness?
Jade_Monkey Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I've been so impatient all morning. This tease got me all excited for today's DD.
Thad Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 All of your speculations are wrong. They will be adding four new player tanks to the simulation... two for each side! Hey, I can dream.
Trooper117 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 lol, Thad... I think you need a tank sim, not a combat flight simulator
LLv24_Zami Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) so will we get a Dev Diary today or not ? We don`t know. You`ll see it in the announcements when and if it`s coming. Edited October 13, 2017 by Zami

I would think that it's to avoid confusion, since most westerners or at least Americans think of the spyplane when someone says "U-2" rather than the old biplane (which I am very much excited for).
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I'm hoping it's a language thing but a particular poster needs some serious work on the politeness factor here. Yup, if you are wondering if it's you..... 2
MrNoice Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 We don`t know. You`ll see it in the announcements when and if it`s coming. you dont say ?
LLv24_Zami Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 you dont say ? Yes, that`s the way it goes. It seemed to be unclear to you but not anymore.
LLv24_Zami Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 But I think it is to late for a dd today Don`t worry just yet, they`ve posted DDs sometimes much later than this
Finkeren Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 If it's coming it's gonna be Jason who does it, and he's on the West coast of the US, so not so late there.
A-E-Hartmann Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) Yes at 10pm (22h) in Europe. Or tomorrow. Edited October 13, 2017 by A-E-Hartmann
Jade_Monkey Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 He did say that it was not 100% guaranteed they would do one though. But the wait is killing me
MrNoice Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 there will be no dd I guess... its nearly 20:00 here
Custard Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 there will be no dd I guess... its nearly 20:00 here
DD_Arthur Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 there will be no dd I guess... its nearly 20:00 here Is bedtime approaching? 1
Trooper117 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Is bedtime approaching? I agree with you mate... time to put the kids to bed!
Jade_Monkey Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Is bedtime approaching? Got a good chuckle out of me
Jason_Williams Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 We were working on it late, but something came up so I let Daniel decide when and what to post. I had to leave. I fly home in the morning. Jason 5
Freycinet Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 If we get the U-2 it would be marvellous to have a full training campaign for it. Imagine becoming proficient on the U-2 and then progressing to a MiG-3.... THAT was the challenge the real pilots of WWII had to deal with.
Finkeren Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Torpedo suprise! And this my friends was post no. 2222 of this thread. What a landmark. How many F5 keys have we worn out while sitting here? May the excitement for the DD never die!
ST_ami7b5 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 We were working on it late, but something came up so I let Daniel decide when and what to post. I had to leave. I fly home in the morning. Jason Pleasant journey, Jason!
Cpt_Cool Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Old DD is no longer pinned. What could this mean?
Finkeren Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 So, what surprises in store for today/tomorrow? I wonder if this will be the last of the “month of surprises”, or if we’ll get one next week as well?
