Nothing has yet been decided on a potential Volume II. A lot of it depends, though, on the availability of Digital Forms to create the needed models.

Best argument für TC II would be the success of TC I. We dont have any clue whether it is a commercial success or not.

TC II would make GB even more complete as it will be by the end of 2024. I really hope this will become reality!

As Stanislav Dombrowski, (many consider the Ceasar of 1300's Poland) once said:  "Kyzj xrdv zj uvru.... reu Clbvj r tfdgcvkv rjjyfcv nyf'j nzwv tyvrkvu fe yzd."

 

He wasn't big on vowels.

I've found a number of things to mod that have really improved what we already have. Even giving us just a few things as simple as providing the rest of the countries' infantry squads just like they created for Normandy would keep Tank Crew going for a while longer.

Maybe so CountZero but... Not to me. 

It could indeed be different/better (?) regarding controlling those tanks but the simple fact that it got somehow integrated into GB is something I never expected they could pull off! 

I never bought any game that down the line expanded its scope by in case of il-2 GB with both WWI theatres as well as tank Warfare. 

This is what makes GB an investment to me more than any other series. 

The only other title that comes to mind is DCS, but tank Battles in it are sorely lacking in many ways.

Ive actually gone back to playing PE Ostpak and SF 1942 because so much is missing in this. It gets boring very quickly without careers, infantry to worry about, and other dangers.

 

I will continue to hope though.

I'd be happy with a bug/fix request thread on these forums. 

Which has been requested for years now........

So..............we wait, and many feel it's coming. I'll  stay with the Eight Ball on this one.

While we wait, I keep finding ways to tweak what we have.

I take it there's been no word on a career mode being added or any other improvements?

 

It's tank crew was anything like the original panzer elite it would be golden and an instant purchase for me.

Or 1942 Steel Fury with the excellent Japanese made super mod which was a great improvement. Well said. Panzer Elite was the best of its time.

FYSA, I was the one who negotiated the limited use rights (non-commercial only) for the original code from Wings that the modding team has been using to continue development of Panzer Elite. Teut was very gracious about it, and loved seeing what we were able to accomplish that his production budget simply didn't allow time for.

 

 

I also worked with the T34 vs Tiger development team as an alpha tester, and historical advisor for a time, but they also lacked the budget to do the things we knew were required for success in the armor sim market.

 

Service To The Line,

On The Line,

On Time!

A game is only as good as the continued development keeps it alive and modding tools are available for users to do it. TC was a "fire and forget" job outsourced to somebody else. Given its niche status to begin with, static development and little ability for us to mod ourselves I think its just going to slowly die off unfortunately. If that's not the case, work on the infantry, anti-tank guns and get us a 38T Hetzer for gods sake lol.

I highly doubt that, considering the fact that a new feature that took quite some time and effort has just been added.

 

Have a nice day.

I'm still bewildered as to how that new feature even got itself on the development to do list.

 

Perhaps the "spring announcement" will shed some light on their thinking.

That's a really good question why they´ve done this recently.

 

I think in order to raise this new feature to a required standard, a few more hours of homework and revision would be needed. The current state of the new feature is more "gamey" than simulation and will disappear as quickly as it came without any improvements. That would be a great pity for the time spent on it.

 

I hope it wasn't just a few crumbs for us starving tankers for Christmas and has another purpose.

Hoping anyone will break the silence .. any new infos regarding Digital Forms?

I spent a lot of money into IL2 last years, even Tank Crew.. would be fair, IL2 Team would bring us any news after months
