Developer Diary, Part 130 - Discussion

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

Bring on the early float planes and flying boats so we can get to the PBY as soon as possible. Like those clambering for the Ju-52, I will fly it operationally. Just as importantly, I'd like to just cruise around in it as well. Seaplanes are really well done in ROF. I can't wait to see them in this sim and drop a little ordinance as well.

Float planes would be fantastic but we'll also need the water technology from RoF for that to happen.

 

This would be a good thng.

[Bommel]

Since BOS/BOM is based on the same engine as ROF (afaik) isn´t the water technology allready in it?

[DD_Arthur]

Not at the moment.

[SCG_Space_Ghost]

It is a modified version of DigitalNature AFAIK... That's a big hypothetical, though.

cheaters should have a six month Ban , two weeks is nothing . if caught again one year Ban . third time its LIFE .

If these users continue to cheat, the bans will become more severe and possible permanent bans will be implemented.

In IL2 will be probably also better but it was (is) really amazing in RoF. We hope for Ju-52 as well.

 

[J4SCrisZeri]

Love the total unlock thing and really love the first Odessa screens. Thank you guys.

[6./ZG26_McKvack]

I wish the devs would change our ju52 from a g4e to g5e then in the future we could maybe see floats, skis(this would be really cool, landing in snowy fields to pick up wounded or drop supplied) and it could also equip another gunner above the cockpit

[216th_Jordan]

Maybe its like with the pe-2. Its series changes with selection of the UB gun.

[Jason_Williams]

Guys,

 

The Yak-1b and Ju-52 will be on sale soon as pre-orders. Probably this week. Please try to support these new collector planes with a purchase.

 

Thanks, 

 

Jason

[SYN_Vorlander]

I love pre orders. Make it happen sir.

[Brano]

Finally! I can't wait. Dang,I need to go on business trip with my boss till Friday. To all greedy collectors: leave some Yak and Ju for me :D

[LLv24_Zami]

Count me in for pre-orders 

[PA-Sniv]

 

 

Guys, The Yak-1b and Ju-52 will be on sale soon as pre-orders. Probably this week. Please try to support these new collector planes with a purchase. Thanks, Jason

 

Copy that!

 

About Yak-1B loadouts, should we expect the same "unlocked" as for Yak-1?

And what about Ju-52? Gunner turret / cargo loads / float / skis?

[6./ZG26_5tuka]

Will the preorder anouncement also come with some more information regarding modifications or new gameplay feautures?

 

Anyway, thank Ju for the headsup.

This. I need more info.

 

I'll end up buying at some point anyway but it'd be nice to know what we're getting now.

I have client on steam, there will be up on store page also?

[Jason_Williams]

You will be getting the standard Ju-52 with gun turret on spine. No floats. Cargo drops or paratroopers have to be built during main development phase, but we want to do it. We haven't worked out those exact details yet.

 

We're not doing the unlock thing any more so all mods for the Yak-1b will be included and available of there are any. I'm not that familiar with the Yak-1b. Not sure what's included as far as mods.

I would imagine you can purchase/activate the product on the il2sturmovik.com website and it will integrate in to your account. Not sure, though.

[Caudron431]

Great news, one more 1CGS product to pre-order!

[PA-Sniv]

Great you want to do cargo drops / paratroopers for Ju-52! Let's hope we'll get floats later someday.

Cheers,

[Jason_Williams]

Need new water to do floats.

[Brano]

Idea:

First 100 preorders of Yak-1b will receive dedicated skin with votive inscription "From first 100 users to developers"

Preferably in russian,smtg along "От первых 100 пользователей для разработчиков"

 

[Jason_Williams]

You can buy in our store and transfer to Steam later.

 

Jason

[LLv34_Flanker]

S!

 

 Seems I have to get those 2 planes as well. Already shelled out a considerable amount on a new gaming rig...

[Jaws2002]

Two weeks ban for cheating is a joke.

Pre-ordering this aircraft, can I know approximate release date?

[Feathered_IV]

Two weeks ban for cheating is a joke.

 

A baby seal walks into a club... 

 

That was a joke 

[Jason_Williams]

Release date is later in the Fall. Still a couple months out.

 

Jason

[SYN_Mike77]

Do we have price points for those two new planes yet?

[SvAF/F16_Goblin]

My guess is 19,99 as the others but I could be seriously wrong :D

Nice News Jason.. 

[Jason_Williams]

There will be a discount for pre-orders of these planes.

 

Jason

[Danziger]

Even better!

[SharpeXB]

Cargo drops or paratroopers have to be built during main development phase,

Were Fallschirmjäger ever actually used as paratroopers on the Eastern front? I thought Crete in May '41 was the last time they did a parachute drop.

Ah it would be a super awesome feature anyways :-D

[216th_Peterla]

Nice to have preorders soon. Good job team.

[Letka_13/Arrow_]

Great news about the unlocks Jason, when will the &$@)(?, Pilot Level be made selectable or done away with altogether?

I also hope that pilot level/rank will be selectable or completely discarded. 

[NachtJaeger110]

Excellent, I love this game more with every update.

 

What helps the team more, paying less now or more when the new babies come out?
