Before the original Il2 series I didn't even know that the La-5 existed. I really loved the plane. I think this is the reason I love these Combat Flight sim. You learn something new every time you fly them.  The BoS LA-5 looks fantastic. Can't wait to get the chance to fly it!

Great update.  Team 777 comes thru again!  How will the Lag-5 do against the 109?  Better than the Yak?

Nice update! But I can't see pretty much of the new clouds, more pics would be awesome!

I still get constant CTD on the Stalingrad map, since an EA release in January.

Lapino works flawless. I already posted the crash reports to the performance bug forums.

Great you release new features, planes and stuff, really appreciated, but I cant see movement in existing bugs, which bothers me tbh.

In the refering forum no dev takes reference on that issue, so I must take into account the issue isnt addressed for now.

I know you dont want to post changelogs, but atm it is a bit frustrating to get a ctd each flight on the Stalingrad map.

D3D Error

Can not create Direct 3DDevice

D3DERR_INVALIDCALL

This looks like a not IL2BOS error to me. Something may be wrong with your drivers actually. I'm not a pro in this sort of things thou, so you may want to talk to our customer service.

How will the Lag-5 do against the 109?

La-5 doesn't particularly own Bf 109. Messer (F-4) often wins vertical maneuvers which is a chance for some fair advantage.

restart and the same error ;(

 

Imho that is the old update you are downloading again because of emptying your update folder.

The launcher will do that for p2p seeding.

Only delete stuff from the updatefolder when told, last time was probably a once in while thing.

Wait on a dev signal that update is ready to download and try it then, I'd say.

Yo guys remember last weeks problems!

Don't start update untill told it is ready by devs or you may have problems again.

ok it is tempting but it is preferable to having burns on the bum LOL

The update started automatically and no Pe-2.  If there is a special procedure then perhaps it would be a good idea for the devs to state this each time with the update announcement.

There was a small update that loaded yesterday.  I think that many people are getting that one if they haven't run the game in a few days.

When there is some special procedure to folow they usualy tell.

 

Right now on activating the game one is told a new version is available and to update meanig the are preping the update files and one better waits on their green light.

+ 10' minutes is not worth an hour of des- and reinstalling ...

Really looking forward to flying in those new clouds.

+1 Me too

 

Best would be if they look more realistic and additionally costs less CPU/GPU! :rolleyes: I know I'm a bit cheeky, but you know hope dies last :cool:

 

Thanks team and have a nice weekend!

Fantastic! Now just need more than three people in a US server at a time.... Would love to do a formation JABO run with a foursome of PE2's.... With of course an escort or two and comms in use.... No one is ever on TeamSpeak though.

The most disappointing thing about this update is the lack of the now 2 week old yak 1 being available in multiplayer. You're just not going to see many people on the servers outside of weekend prime time with the plane set balance so bad.

 

You can only stomp Laggs or get stomped by 109s for a very short while before you go do something else.

PE-2, first twin engined plane in BOS! Looking forward to flying her. Those new clouds look very cool.

You guys Rock!!!! Thank you very much.

Hmm La5 didn't shine also in turn fights. 109 F-4 and G-2  (20-21 sec) should be better in turn also then LA5 ( 22 sec).

 

BTW it is possible to add Yak-1 for mulitplayer servers?

Yes, that is really unfortunate. I don't think the Pe-2 will make it into MP either until the He-111 and it looks like the next plane will be the La-5, again, without its counterpart.

 

I think it would currently be a very good time to stress test the servers continuously, but I can't get myself joining the current MP sessions and prefer the QMB and the other SP missions instead.

Great, thank you! Nice to have twin engine bomber, i bet it is fun to fly. La5 is looking good+new clouds.

Do we need to uninstall and re-download the "Game Installer"?

Can't you just run the launcher again?

Posted

trying that now ;)

Posted

tried running the launcher twice and I've also tried deleting what was in the updates folder. So this is the only other option. Extreme but usually works for me.

Posted

over 2 GB and failed...

Posted

Goes above 2 gb before I delete update again and again, and now waiting for an official word before downloading again

Posted

They may not have finished uploading the update yet.

Posted

hmmm! i'll hold off doing anything until we hear from a Dev. 

Posted

Could the devs "lock" the game updater from loading new content until it is fully uploaded? Would be nice to reduce bandwith on the peers and their servers if you don't want the P2P distribution.
