Well, from the last DD I took away that were are going to get at least the 110 maybe this week.

Looking froward.

Han said the end of the month so I figured next week at the earliest.

he didn't say "end of the month" he said "till end of the month" ...the usual software developer talk...

But they usually do drop the new plane in the last full week of the month. They usually need the time to do the beta test before they launch the patch. It's been going like clockwork so far.

 

I'm curious what aircraft are coming next. MiG-3 in December? Han or someone said the Ju88A-4 was last so I assume that some of the other 'variant releases' will be coming between now and the Ju88.

I'm waiting on the 110 before I buy BoM. I could wait through the Macchi and the Emil because I don't love fighters, but the 110 is right up my alley.

 

 

What's the next upcoming version for the game? I'm especially curious when 1.105 might be launched.

They said the MiG-3 will be the plane after the 110.

I think version 1.105, which includes the Bf-110, will be launched next week.

Be sure!

24th - 26th will be my guess.

 

The Bf 110 is by all accounts ready, but since the update will also feature the first drivable tanks, it's gonna be yet another massive update which is going to take a while to get ready.

Just tanks,for tomorrow,we have public holiday in Slovakia.110 can wait one more week :P  ;)

Posted

S! Hope before the 26th.

if they delay the plane for the tanks now i will actually be mad :wacko:  :P  I'm still hoping for a fast release, the I-16 was released on the July 7th, the Macchi on August 11th  ;)

Releasing one update with the plane and one with the drivable tanks would be a waste of ressources. They already have to put together and test one update every month. Two in one month would be excessive.

I am sure it will be 19 Noveber.

Look:

-19 november is a day of Artillery in Russia.

-19 november is my Birthday.

- I served in army in Artillery.

- 20 november is 5 years of my wedding.

 

My beloved Bf110 MUST came around that date too :)

Because it's a package release with fixes, content, etc. I wouldn't saying with certainty that tanks or even the Bf110 is the holdup. Usually you insert the new content and code changes, commit, and then the "delay" is to ensure you haven't broken anything along the way.

I guess you're going to be fairly frustrated then.

The devs are releasing updates at a faster rate than other current flightsim devs are showing their WIP or what their plans are for their sim sometime in the future.

 

Yet some people here are worried about delays  :(

I am both irrationally excited and expectant for the 110.

 

Seems everywhere I look there are shadowy ZG characters hanging around looking menacing with itchy fingers.

 

:-P

 

S! I resemble that remark.

Hilarious  :lol:

true story

Highly unrealistic, none of the yaks have flaps down and the pilots heads needs to be further outside the cockpit.

true story

When I fly germans I find it irresitable to climb as high as I can to get an advantage . When I fly russians I typically only climb to the high the bombers are  xD or simply follow my mission instead of being fighter jock

I have not read a one comment on the flap of Macchi and head outside on 190...

Clearly someone does not like anyone making fun of their favorite UFO - go ahead and start complaining about mine - the macchi and the FW190. You'll be shocked at how very little i care.  :thank_you:

Any one know what mods we get with the 110 ? Do we get the 37mm mounted in the gondola version for tankbusting ?

Did you make this? It's GOLD!

Good question... we've done some conjecture back a couple of months ago but we really don't know what the options are. Usually its a mix of the fairly standard with some more esoteric options so perhaps we'll see the 37mm gondola option?

If the 37mm gondola contained the BK 37 it's hard to imagine it being included for the Bf-110E at least. Wasn't that an add-on for the Bf-110G that was introduced around the same time as the Ju-87 BK 37 in 1943?

 

EDIT: I think the drawing was created by Fern. :)

Well... Our Ju-87 ingame shouldnt have 37mm pods as well so maybe... ;)

So you don't care if aircraft on your team can do the same thing as the things you complain about the aircraft on the opposing team being able to do?

 

Basically, because the "UFO Yak" can do these things, that - honestly its just the flaps - the Macchi can do but because you don't "fly" the Macchi it doesn't matter even though it is just as capable with flaps down as the "UFO Yak." But it doesn't matter, because YOU don't "fly" it.

That's debatable though - although it never made it to the Battle of Stalingrad, the Ju-87D was equipped with the BK 37 and served in that configuration in other battles (Kursk, for example).

 

In this case, the Bf-110E may not have received that upgrade in any of its incarnations, making it unrealistic to have so. This would be comparable to giving the Bf-109F-2 an option to bear a 30mm nose cannon, for example.

 

A more complicated modification is the much-discussed MiG-3 with the AM-38 engine. Factory experiments aside, this was done a couple of times in the field (less than 30 if I remember correctly), but only because they didn't have enough AM-35As coming to the front. While it fit and the aircraft flew well at low altitude, the MiG did not have appropriate cooling system for such an engine, meaning the variant was grounded at temperatures above 15-16C and the AM-38 was much more needed for the Il-2 anyway so the project never materialised. But this is going way off topic.

"Our Ju87" could carry BK 37.

 

The better argument would be, but we have the Fw-190 in the Battle of Stalingrad that may have been around there somewhere but really wasn't involved.

bf 110 will save this franchise

That's what Goering said.

I think I can get on-board with that logic. If the configuration for the type existed then I'm ok with it it being available as a potential option. But if its not something the Bf110E-2 can fit... then absolutely no.
