Popular Post Jason_Williams Posted March 12, 2018 Popular Post Posted March 12, 2018 Attention Pilots! The window for pre-ordering Battle of Kuban at a $10 discount ($69.99) is closing very soon. If you haven't done so already, now is the time to make your move before the price increases to it's regular MSRP which will be $79.99. To celebrate the impeding release we have a small video featuring the classic P-39L-1 Airacobra in the Kuban skies. Check it out! 20 12 2 32
unlikely_spider Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 I wish that I didn't buy it already so that I could buy it now, and fly over that map for the first time again.
Dutchvdm Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Nice video! Love the shoulder view guncam part. Can't wait to try this one out along with the new careermode. Grt M
=FEW=Hauggy Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Nice ! I can still see haze in the horizon...could it be an older version without the improved visibility?

I can still see haze in the horizon...could it be an older version without the improved visibility? Maybe it's just me, but i can clearly see a higher draw distance. And to me it looks pretty realistic. Grt M Edited March 12, 2018 by I./ZG1_Martijnvdm 1
Voidhunger Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) The plane seems to me somewhat unstable, but very very nice! The cannon looks fearsome! Edited March 12, 2018 by Voidhunger grammar

Terrain is drawn out to 150km. Jason 2 1 9
[CPT]Pike*HarryM Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Looks really, really good. Kobrushka is almost here!!!
Taxman Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Thank you Jason and the whole team, great sneak peak.
[APAF]VR_Spartan85 Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Ohhhhh p39... brings a new meaning when you call out “guns guns guns!” I really like the different feel of the cockpit and it seems to me like like it will be a unique aircraft in the sim, especially the trike gear..... a20 and p39 gonna be fun... anyone notice any new or enhanced visuals in that vid? My eyes are tired I did notice more horizon... a comparison vid would be awesome Edited March 12, 2018 by spartan85

SJ_Butcher Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Jason, if all goes good when do you think we will have the patch?
-=PHX=-SuperEtendard Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 "closing very soon" When would that be? it's either in one day, three days, or eight days
-TBC-AeroAce Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 It is a little hard to tell when the sales ends? I guess the title implies that it will end after today as in the 13th of Feb?
Jade_Monkey Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Great job devs, cant wait to fly it! The terrain render distance does look much better!! 3.001 will be a new landmark in flight sims for sure. 1

II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Well done team. Eagerly awaiting delivery now. @Aero, I would think they'd give people more than one day to capitalize on the sale. Especially people who don't have the game, need to see the video and then get their cash on the table. It will likely close very shortly before the full release. Anything beyond that is a guess but since I'm in a guessing mood............................Tuesday

They need time for people to notice that preorder end is near the end, also release candidate is in the testing right now. 19 or 20 march is my guess 1
hedger72 Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Oh be still my beating heart! The Airacobra in all her glory! That brought tears to my eyes. The '39 is my favorite WW2 plane, and seeing her in full flight/action is a thing of beauty. This has been my most awaited ride since Kuban was announced and she's almost here! Many thanks for posting this video!!! 1
BlitzPig_EL Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Wow. My new office looks great, inside and out. Can't wait. 1

If you can handle the Spitfire well the Cobra should bring any bad suprises and reward you with excellent visibility and firepower. 7 minutes ago, hedger72 said: Oh be still my beating heart!

RAY-EU Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Thanks , It Will be fabulous ! Every progress of kind update should be impressionant !
Livai Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Something is missing here -> Jasons said - In addition to the discount, don’t forget that you’ll also receive a unique skin for the IL-2 as a pre-order bonus! Is this a rowing back - ??? - with unique skin for the IL-2 as a pre-order bonus, said in the "Final Release of Battle of Kuban Delayed (A little bit)" Statement?
DiscoPhil Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 How about performance with the new draw distance? 1
Archie Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Well my week just got better! Cannot wait for the update!
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Gotta be honest here, I'm at least as excited about the new terrain and draw distance as I am about new planes................. 4

Blitzen Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 I have really been looking forward to the P-39 since it was announced by Studio 777( actually, since I was 12 & bought the Revell kit several eons ago...) I know that in game & in history , generally combats on the Eastern Front happened at a lower level than Western Europe which suited the P-39, but I do hope when this plane is released ( this week I hope,i hope,i hope...) one of our "Real" flyer will take her up & really ring her out testing the FM.Does it turn into a dog above say 12,000 feet ? Do we need to worry about uncontrollable flat spins?What about climb & turn rates ,say compared to your average 109? Are the ballistic differences between the nose mounted cannon & wing mounted MGs something to worry about or plan for? I know I'll fly it regardless at least now & then , but it would be nice to get the real "gen" on how it flies & how well Studio 777 has presented same.
[CPT]Pike*HarryM Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Yeah, I remember this one, very nice kit for the era, detail and fit were quite good. Bought it at K-Mart IIRC (the one that burned down in the Santa Rosa fires recently ).

If so I'd like to see it! I bet this is 1/72 scale. I had never realized the logo included elements of an "American" flag. I got a Supermarine Spitfire from this brand for my Bday when I was a kid.
