SAG Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Hey guys, ive been asking around on TS and trying to read around the forums but havent come up with an official ETA on the summer map or something closer than mere speculation like Prolly* next year or Maybe christmas. charming and all i have really outgrown the snow, i love BoS and maybe eventually will buy BoM (if the dollar decides to go ahead and land that is) but i think like the summer map is taking a little to long, i would love to see what this already great looking Sim would bring in the summer (i wouldnt want to fly an La-5 though XD i just cant keep that plane cool) When can we expect it? S!
Finkeren Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 ETA has always been Q3 2015, ever since the summer map was first announced. This means it's most likely coming within a month, propably in the same update that'll bring us the P-40E. Though ofc there's always a risk of slight delay into October, but it's unlikely since the summer map appears to have been pretty much ready for a while. In any case it's right around the corner. This has never been a secret.
NN_RugbyGoth Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 And we can add that with the automn, summer maps, we will have the new campaign too

But still think you are because the summer map and the P-40 out next month? That'd be waaaaay too good to be true! I can't remember the last time a flight simulator released such a gift! I heard it was Q1 2016 ... I pray you are right, the wait has been way too long! Imagine if they opened up public mods, this game would decimate the competition. Edited September 3, 2015 by Bearcat

Posted in the announcement today read up on it. "Zak" DD #106 Fall is coming! The new seasonal map will soon be complete, and today we're finally ready to give you a sneak peek at what we've got. The rest of the development is going as planned, so let's keep fingers crossed for the BOS add-on to be published in time. That's up to us to make this possible, and everyone in the dev team is doing their best to make it happen. Also we've started to work on the Moscow map - right in time according to the project plan, so soon we'll be sharing some WIP screenshots from it as well. And today - a few fresh screenshots from the autumn Stalingrad." http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/168-developer-diary/?p=281219 Edited September 3, 2015 by Bearcat

Prepare to be pleasantly surprised then Even if it doesn't come in the same update as the P-40 it's bound to follow very soon after. This isn't Eagle Dynamics or any of their 3rd party contributers (not saying anything bad about them otherwise. They do great things with DCS) and if there is one thing 1C/777 has been consistently good at, it's delivering on promises and hitting milestones on time. Edited September 3, 2015 by Bearcat 1
SAG Posted August 22, 2015 Author Posted August 22, 2015 oooh very good to hear, apparently the issue is just basically me not being able to wait for too long XD. i didnt remember that they said Q3 2015. thanks a lot and lets hope that Dev Blog is news that is coming very soon

In the mean time, I'll be flying my He-111, waiting for my Ju-88.
Habu Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 In the discount post from Jason, you can learn that summer and autumn map are in test. You can see also a screen of Gumrak airfield (not sur at 100% for gumrak) in automn (sur at 100% for the season). Jason's post : http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/17920-august-bos-sale-50-discount/
Finkeren Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Yeah, it's Gumrak. Dang! Those autumn colors look awesome!
Bullets Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 I just hope its released when its finished and not part of some "super DD 100!" malarkey... Autumn seems quite far away and they are talking about it being pretty much finished.. Why the wait?

Autumn seems quite far away and they are talking about it being pretty much finished.. Why the wait? It takes resources to put together and test a working update. Therefore it makes most sense to lump the new seasons in with one of the BoM plane releases. The new maps and campaign chapters will most likely come in September with the P-40 or October with the Bf 109E7. Most likely it's only a few weeks away. The new planes for BoM so far have been in testing only a couple of weeks before getting released. My money's on September.
Bullets Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Awh man, I will be one happy camper if it comes with the P40!

SAG Posted August 28, 2015 Author Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) Hmm regarding the last Dev news, do i derstand correctly that the new maps will be coming in two months? Wouldnt that make the ETA Q4 instead of Q3? I cant say im not sad about that if its true. Edited August 28, 2015 by SAG
Finkeren Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Yeah, it looks like it'll miss the September update. Too bad, but not really a big issue.
