Will there be a Flying Circus 3?

[JG4_Moltke1871]

Hi friends,

after the live stream talk I have more questions than answers….?

But my biggest question is: 
Will be there a Flying Circus 3?

In an old Post of Jason I find there are scheduled three Parts of Flying Circus, maybe four.

But a lot of speculations are running now for a possible new game engine…

In case it’s true we will still get our Flying Circus 3 compatible with 1+2 and the western front Reims sector? I really hope for it, don’t get it would be a great disappointment ?

With Jason gone there may be changes and new priorities now.

We will have to wait and see what happens.

It is my unfortunate duty to inform you that FC3's content has been drastically improved to only include the Hanriot HD.1 and absolutely nothing else.

Its my unfortunate duty to inform you that your only task in FC3 is to hunt me with your Hanriot HD.1 when I fly the second plane in game, Zeppelin Staaken R VI, while I bomb the only one target on the map, nothing else...

Why are you asking the buyers?  Ask the developers what their plans are….

This is an IL2 Forum and I guess they read in their own Forum.

I don’t like to must think about FC3 maybe never coming ( it was part of the long-term plan ).

So I have the need to talk about it and want to know what other Flying Circus Fans think about it.

What an extraordinary question. I should think they'd be damn fools not to proceed with FC3. We here are a generally amiable, open-minded and sophisticated bunch of individuals but hell, watch out when we get cross! Beastly doesn't cover it.

I'm personally curious if the new map tech upgrades might permit... trenches?

 

If so - that'd be pretty wonderful. We'll see though.

Umph…. Imagine every trench and crater in the complete no man’s land in 3D…. A challenge even for NASA computers ?

I don't know... one could probably keep them fairly low res and with lod's and loading/unloading at a reasonable distance from the camera.

 

...I mean, they can convince us we're flying over forests right? So why not ziggy zaggs too?

Hmmmm, probably. Everything increases immersion would be welcome ?

[BMA_Hellbender]

Trenches look fine, what I’d like to see are bump mapped craters in NML.

[jollyjack]

Those awful unreal crater blobs; i wish you could turn them off when they're auto set after a bomb drop.

From 1915 there was mine war especially in Les Eparges and Vauqouis highs in the surrounding of Verdun. The Crater’s of this underground warfare are giant. These landmarks should be visible on the map. Let’s see they are included ?

With the flugpark getting 100+ players for the Sunday events, seems like the devs would be foolish to not proceed with FC3 and 4.

[JGr2/J5_Klugermann]

100+ ????    Are you counting in base 6 ?

Ask J5 ??  110 listed on the link provided......

 

 

 

Nice to be over 100 PvP once again!  
 

    Thanks to all the community data wonks and gatherers, whiners (who had a role to play and played it), testers, and the new leadership at 1C for listening and caring enough to save this WWI sim and community!

Saw it...let's see if it holds up.

[JG4_Moltke1871]

Nice to see the Flugpark more frequent again.

 I think the upgraded damage model have it’s influence.

And that’s only online… I think a lot of guys can’t wait the career mode.

For myself: Most time of playing Great Battles in time I have with Flying Circus in PWCG Career mode.
