AndyJWest Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Excellent. I see I'm going to have to learn Romanian, for the IAR cockpit. 'Variometru'? What can that possibly mean? ? 1
DD_Arthur Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 So....er.....do you want to tell us where or what happened to Jason? Are you series producer now Sneaksie? Whats going on? 1 3
354thFG_Panda_ Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 IAR looking good. Interview was great as well, clears a lot of misconceptions and hyped for the next expansion. Thank you Developers

Thank you Developers Yeah, I'll be fascinated to hear about their selection process for the next module if they eventually decide to share that. Given how much thought I've given to theory crafting possible modules and whether or not they are feasible - it'd be interesting to see a professional's take. Edited October 7, 2022 by Avimimus 3

7bhp_Mk Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 One of my most anticipated updates, for sure. This one is going to be awesome. Keep up the amazing work, guys! 1

Avimimus Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 9 minutes ago, LeLv30_Redwing said: Are we getting M8 Greyhound? I'm pretty sure it is AI. In the Russian language interview (according to forum translators anyway) they seemed to express a doubt about the sales of armoured cars (and presumably light tanks and other vehicles). IMHO, if they were given an ability to direct artillery (alongside U-2VS, Fi-156, Fw-189, and L-5) then they'd probably be pretty popular. It'd be quite a bit of fun trying to survive as an armoured car while correcting artillery fires onto enemy positions/tanks... and directing an entire battery of howitzers our guns anything we have (albeit requiring a bit more skill and being more inherently inaccurate). So I think that'd sell if it was limited to just the scout vehicles. Never under-estimate the appeal of a bit of Pyromania now and again. 1 1

I'm looking forward to the Li-2 (and hoping it isn't cancelled - although I'm optimistic the C-47 has sold well considering all the people asking about it)... ...because the Li-2 has a fixed forward firing armament of one 7.62mm machine gun ? Dakadakdaka indeed ? 1
[CPT]Crunch Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Be sure you is wrong, cause that was a whole lot of information this week in the interview, thanks for doing it guys.
Jade_Monkey Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 IAR coming along nicely. I hope that it's a successful collaboration that results in future collector aircrafts from that modeler. 2 1
[F.Circus]sith1144 Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 a WIP greyhound? ? and Normandy is "Fully released"? that may indicate where we're going next... they were used in Italy and the Pacific, and did not see service on the eastern front... 1
Jaws2002 Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Great update. Thank you Enigma89 for the interview. it answered a lot of questions and settled a lot of misconceptions about GB. Very sexy little IAR. That cockpit is for the IAR-81C. Awesome sauce. Thank you. Edited October 7, 2022 by Jaws2002 1 3

Hmmm, it might be just an AI vehicle as the others that have trickled out throughout the development of BON. I would not put any special weight to it (yet!).
ickylevel Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 The AI Greyhound is already there: This must be a pilotable one. 2

It looked familiar but i haven't come across it much, so i wasn't sure That's really interesting then. Edit: on an absurd level, it would be funny if they threw some old WIP image of the AI greyhound just to throw us off their tracks Edited October 7, 2022 by Jade_Monkey 1
migmadmarine Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Not going to read into it much, but it is interesting that the first screenshot on the textured IAR in game has it in the post swap to allies markings.
Voidhunger Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 so if its playable do we get a Puma or similar wheeled armored vehicle for the Germans? It would be fun duel at least for me 1 2
Deicide Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Is the Greyhound going to be a vehicle we can drive/buy? or just another AI piece

Actually that paint scheme represents the early Romanian markings, before they chose the AXIS side. The thin yellow bands and smaller roundels were used before May 1941 on all Romanian planes. Once the Romanians signed with AXIS they switched to the Crosses. The late Allied markins, adopted after august 1944 have larger roundels, white fuselage bands and white wingtips.

ICDP Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Jaws beat me to it. The scheme is just a WiP and ahistorical for the type in the screenshot of course.
stefostef Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Great interview Enigma ! You missed WWI fighters and map developpement. Greece or Italie would be nice for a new historical front ! 1
