CF-105 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 You have NO way of knowing that... Bearcat, Freycinet was making a joke, if you didn't know. What I'm wondering about is if we will ever see skis as a modification for aircraft? And will we see additional improvement to gear physics like bending and hydraulic failure?
Zappatime Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 oooh those ground contact physics are cool :cool: :cool:
Quax Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Those ground physics look incredible. +1 Although the ground physics of BoS have already been the best on the market, these new additions look really fantastic ! Edited October 23, 2015 by Quax
=EXPEND=Dendro Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 SO this means we won't have WT jerks taking off in any direction they please??? 4
VBF-12_Stick-95 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Love the ground fx! I wonder what mud will be like.
71st_AH_Hooves Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Really really impressed. I'm hoping that now that the physics are in that a soggy airfield might be possible. But that's wishful thinking. I am really super impressed with this!
Bando Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 When I saw that Emil drift on the ice I was smiling. The plane bumping in the grass was like watching some real ac doing that. Coming back on the tarmac really showed the plane was struggling to get out of the grass as it immediately accelerated. + the summer/autumn maps are coming... + the Emil... This has got to be the best dev team in the universe. Thanks for the update. 1
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Really really impressed. I'm hoping that now that the physics are in that a soggy airfield might be possible. But that's wishful thinking. I am really super impressed with this! I'm all for soggy airfields.
XQ_Lothar29 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 New effect of landing on the ice is great.. New snow Model, now you will not see pilots take off out runway... Really good news, is the next week new summer maps and new campaigns.. Salud Lothar29
6./ZG26_Emil Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I'm all for soggy airfields. Same here :D
-TBC-AeroAce Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Will make off piest emergency landings fun
-TBC-AeroAce Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Does anyone know if the tanks will be out with this release??
keeno Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Now this looks amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great work and Cheers
Finkeren Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Does anyone know if the tanks will be out with this release?? Almost certainly not. The video from last week was clearly a teaser. I'm not even sure we'll see them before BoM is done. I think it's more of a long-term project looking forward to a future Battle of Kursk as the next in the series, but that's just me doing wild speculation.
Beazil Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Takeoffs and landings just got a lot more interesting.
-TBC-AeroAce Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Anyone literally up for a landing and drift style competition? Il create a thread after its been out for a while for people to post vids. Maybe even setup a little prize structure
Urra Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Anyone literally up for a landing and drift style competition? Il create a thread after its been out for a while for people to post vids. Maybe even setup a little prize structure Syncronized figure skating competition?
coconut Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 The video of the bumpy ride by the runway makes me wonder, how is one supposed to land outside of runways and frozen lakes, e.g. if you run out of fuel. Is one condemned to damage the landing gears and the prop? Also, regarding tank release, I think I read on the Russian forums devs would give more information regarding their plans shortly after 1.104 is out. It does not mean we'll get dates, but who knows...
216th_Lucas_From_Hell Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I think one is mostly condemned to crash-land in those cases, particularly in winter and muddy/soft ground areas. Though I have no life experience, landing a 3 ton brick at speed in uneven terrain where the wheels are prone to getting stuck sounds tricky.
Dakpilot Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 There were many vids shown real of aircraft trying to land gear down in deep and shallow snow posted, (very unsuccessful) when the unrealistic snow/landing behaviour was being debated long ago Looking forward to test out what seems like much more believable 'real life' behaviour Cheers Dakpilot 1

Is one condemned to damage the landing gears and the prop? ... A related question. I've always wondered how many, if any, of the runways in BOS are grass strips? There seems to be a lot of paved or concrete runways? Fantastic and amazing looking update by the way. I have been waiting for the new maps for so long.
6./ZG26_Gielow Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 No more take off outside the runway!!! This is the biggest improvement ever !!! 1
Freycinet Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Just typical of this development team, absolutely no sense of priorities. What is it about FLIGHT simulator they don't understand? - This is not an ice skating sim or a bobsledding sim. Any effort expended towards ground physics is obviously taken away from the ESSENTIAL work of improving flight physics and adding a flyable Ju-52. Rant over, and oh yeah: just kidding :-D Awesome vid! You have NO way of knowing that... Bearcat, I was joking as I indicated at the end of my posting with "just kidding :-D" I think spring and autumn maps with mud should be quite easy to make with a few small modifications. It would basically behave just like the deep snow we see in the vid, perhaps with the ruts disappearing a bit faster. So, basically just colour the snow brown and we're in business!
RoteDreizehn Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) yes this is nice - indeed. next step - will be a dream with ATC on airfield and flight so I say "Gehen Sie ins Vorzimmer" --> wait No more take off outside the runway!!!This is the biggest improvement ever !!! Edited October 23, 2015 by RoteDreizehn
Rjel Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Will the ground physics extend to the airplane props? I've bent more blades than I can count by barely brushing a treetop. Will the same thing happen getting low in the grass?

Will the same thing happen getting low in the grass? Hedge Trimming ay? One would think a metal prop could trim a bit of tree! But getting that realistic could be a bit of a waste of time in comparison to flying 6ft higherlol

Yogiflight Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Looks really great. But as we saw the drifting Emil, the secret of how the new campaign will look like, is gone. It's going to be "Rallye Stalingrad".
Boomerang Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Drifting on the Volga o yeah! How cool! LOL Jason's post Ground physics certainly add more emersion I think, (especially with the throttle use on different surfaces). The image of "tumulus of Mamai", commemorating the Battle of Stalingrad is a nice touch, and that aerial shot with the Ju looks fantastic!
Feathered_IV Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Great update. It will be so nice not to have to watch those awful people blasting off across the ground with no regard for anyone or anything else. 1
Boomerang Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 "Rallye Stalingrad". Maybe even a Smash em up Derby with the ammo!
kendo Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Great update. It will be so nice not to have to watch those awful people blasting off across the ground with no regard for anyone or anything else. May be the case that it sorts this out for the winter map and deep snow...just as everyone and all the servers switch to summer...where it may still be possible to tear off over the grass... I hope not. Edited October 23, 2015 by kendo
No601_Swallow Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Drifting on the Volga o yeah! How cool! LOL Jason's post Ground physics certainly add more emersion I think, (especially with the throttle use on different surfaces). Coming soon to a Tangmere squadron server near you - He111 Curling. It's gonna happen... Edited October 23, 2015 by No601_Swallow
HippyDruid Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 The new ground handling looks very good. Maybe my Dirt Rally skills will come in handy.
