Guest deleted@1562 Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 You guys really should charge /something/ for all this work - even if it is only 5 bucks or something. I love these games I would gladly pay a few dollars for more campaigns,maps,planes etc. Cheers! Why do you think it will be for free? I thought it will be an official payware expansion.
Freycinet Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 By Jove! - Zeus, this all looks really good, thanks for posting updates.
pencon Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Any new "snow " map will look like more of the same to me .
A-E-Hartmann Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 A little update. Crop of GUI map (wip) 33117641.jpg Excellent . Thank You for news .

DD_Arthur Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Really looking forward to this zeus and many congratulations on your new job!
Blooddawn1942 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 The community can consider itself lucky, that such talented guys like You are working theyr arses off to get the most out of this great sim! Congratulation Zeus! I guess You much deserve this!
Veteran66 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Hi Zeus. I like your mapping work, the landscape look more realistic like the CloD and Stalingrad Maps. You are a man who walk with open eyes through the landscape.
No601_Swallow Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Zeus, the green background now in your posts looks cooool! Thank you for this beautiful map and for all your dedication and perfectionism!
pilotpierre Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 You just keep on being 'de man' Zeus. Great work.
-NW-ChiefRedCloud Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 New maps coming. Of which Zues is a BIG contributor. Thanks .... Chief
silent_one Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 It looks great and I admire your work. Another white map though. At least that forested map gives a little more texture to the ground. To be honest the white ground and being unable to tell if Im looking at sky or ground in a fight is pushing me away from this game. I find Im playing it less and less and this is definitely one of the reasons for me. Todays update saying there will be summer maps gives me great hope though.
D_Konig Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I might be a minority here but i actually like the winter map, its a nice change from the English channel - although different seasons would be even better. A desert theatre in the future would be cool as well, North Africa..

LLv24_Zami Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I might be a minority here but i actually like the winter map, its a nice change from the English channel - although different seasons would be even better. I like it too, its a great map. Very well done, looks really like a cold winter. But its good to have different seasons and extend the battle timeline.
No601_Swallow Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I might be a minority here but i actually like the winter map, its a nice change from the English channel - although different seasons would be even better. I also agree. It's beautiful, makes navigation much easier, and is really atmospheric. Down low, there's a ton of detail in the terrain, particularly elevation. I now understand why crossing the Don was a challenge, with its high western bank, and why the Germans crossed where they did, for instance. (But I'm also looking forward to some good honest-to-goodness mud,dirt and rain in the Autumn map.)
Feathered_IV Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Damn Zeus. That looks so real, so perfectly natural.
silent_one Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Sometimes like in RL, be sure. Yeah I like bacon too. I dont want it for every meal though. I like a bit of choice
Urra Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Current stage of texturing. Velikiye Luki Fortress, Lovat river and town centre. 33141221.jpg And new crop of GUI-map (the area of Zhizhitskoye Lake) 33163371.jpg Does anyone know if we will be able to see the treeline as pictured in the development version above at highest setting?
Sim Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 33141221.jpg Do I see the pilot wearing oxygen mask in this picture or I need a new pair of glasses?
SYN_Ricky Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Do I see the pilot wearing oxygen mask in this picture or I need a new pair of glasses? I'd say it's the reflector sight… 1

Jade_Monkey Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Holly crappen. That looks huge! I'm so excited. Edit: yes, that's what she said Edited February 9, 2015 by CBZ323
Leaf Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Edit: yes, that's what she said I was about to say that. Do you think that Zeus is primed for release?
PA-Sniv Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Nice!!! Settlments, road and railway layout really look realistic!

Yakdriver Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 i keep pressing enter, to go from 2D to 3D view iike in 1946...good job!O.o
Jason_Williams Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Geez...I know nothing about this part of the globe or any battles there, but that looks like a lot of forest. Can't be good for ground operations no? What is the "takeaway idea" when you learn about this area during the war? Jason
1CGS LukeFF Posted February 10, 2015 1CGS Posted February 10, 2015 The Battle for Velikiye Luki was one of the Red Army's major winter counteroffensives of 1942-43. It's been overshadowed (obviously) by what happened at Stalingrad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_for_Velikiye_Luki
Feathered_IV Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Amazing. Congratulations too Zeus on becoming part of the team. I hope you will share the creation process of the summer and autumn maps with us too. It's a pleasure to see them take shape.
Emil_Junus Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I hope you will share the creation process of the summer and autumn maps with us too. shape. +1 And we all hope we don't have to wait too long for green maps
Finkeren Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 And we all hope we don't have to wait too long for green maps Depends on what you mean by 'too long'. ETA is third quarter, so expect to have the maps some time before Christmas.
Brano Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I think that maps will be done earlier.What will take time is to wrap campaign around it.
