Hello everybody,

In general, the work is proceeding as planned. All three remaining Battle of Kuban planes (Yak-7b, P-39L and A-20B) are in Engineers department now. P-39L and A-20B 3D cockpits are being made and textured, while the 3D model of Yak-7b is finished. In the meantime, the new Career mode is being filled with a lot of content:

There was no G6 without the 131 Beulen, so you must write: "Beulen...... Yesssssssssssssss!   "

Oh man, those careers are going to be AMAZING!!! 38 different mission types? It boggles the mind.

 

And Bf 109G6 already underway sounds great. Can't wait for WIP images of the "other surprises" Please put them up for preorder soon so I can throw more money st you. You are doing an outstanding job!

Magnificent !

[Herne]

Great update !!

 

Wish I could throw my wallet at the screen, have you considered selling physical goods ? T shirts, mugs, key rings etc ?

I'd buy them in an instant if I believed for a second it would help support this great team.

Thanks Devs

[CAPSLOCK_ON]

Nice surprise on the G-6! :D

Now here she is - the one and only 109, the arc-iconic "G6"   - now IL2-BoX is on it's way to the second half of WW2

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

I haven't done a give away in a while. When the G6 and -5FN hit I will buy ten and make it rain...............

[MrNoice]

hopefully   G6 with  30mm ;D

[II./JG77_Spaz]

hopefully   G6 with  30mm ;D

I second this statement!!!

[Retnek]

I second this statement!!!

 

 

hopefully   G6 with  30mm ;D

That 30-mm-fever might be cured rapidly by a new realism option "realistic weapons jamming" ... 

 

"weapons jamming" is my speculation, ok? I read it nowhere, no-one never-ever told me there is an option like this coming up, ok? (Try to imagine the discussions here if ... )

I have read the list and it is such a giant WIP, i cant imagine to create all the insignias, write the coding for the new career mode for each theater, damn good work my friends!  

[unreasonable]

Nice update, I like positive surprises! G-6 will keep a lot of people content.

[CCG_Pips]

WOW!!!!!!  Thanks dev's !!!! exited to fly onto a G-6 !!! :salute:

[ITAF_Rani]

Any hope to have an official skin with ANR markings?

[BlueHeron]

Just keeps getting better!   

[HBB*Hunger]

Are you serious guys? Really, thats an awesome devdiary, thank you so much!!!!

[TG-55Panthercules]

What is it about the 109s?  Looks like our Russian friends are just as susceptible to making the same mistake the Germans did - building more and more 109 variants trying to extend the life of an outdated pre-war design instead of switching over to a more advanced aircraft to produce 

 

Seriously, where's the pre-order page so I can throw some more money your way?

 

Really jazzed about the description of all the goodies waiting for us in the new career mode.  I hope they manage to make some AI improvements to go along with all those new mission types and extra aircraft in the skies.  Good times ahead in BoX for sure.

[LLv24_Zami]

What a great diary!

 

Career seems to exceed my expectations, sounds just awesome! Great job everyone 

 

G-6 is a pleasant surprise, can`t wait to dress it to FAF skin and make good use of it`s added firepower 

 

Can`t wait to begin testing of that career, it`ll be great 

[FTC_Riksen]

Wow G6 and the carrer mode?! Awesome job

[Luftschiff]

Fantastic! You guys start off by saying "Nothing new til Christmas" and then throw us a G6 and great career information? Horrido!
Will preorder as soon as they are up, and prepare my channel for some IL2 Careers! Absolutely capital!

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

Excellent as always, thanks for the update Han!

[=FEW=Hauggy]

I'm so hyped about the G6 and the LA5-FN ^^

It seems like you guys are about to reconciliate me with the solo part of the game.

All of this is just outstanding now I'm hoping the contractor can make a decent Po-2 so we can be hyped about even more new gems for this incredible sim.

Who knows maybe one day my dream of flying an I-153 over the Caucasus Mountains or during the Battle of Moscow might become a reality.
