Il2 DD Update Dev Blog 280 "BON Edition"

[+76.IAP-Blackbird]

 

Dear Friends!

Today’s DD is pretty straightforward, we’d simply like to show you some shots of content that we have in the works for both Battle of Normandy and Flying Circus: Volume II. 

First, we have multiple renders of new objects, vehicles and ships that are being created by a development partner of ours. They are coming along nicely as you can see. They will be fully integrated into the engine very soon. 

    
     
 

Next, we have the first shots of the Fokker D.VIII which is development by our friends at Ugra Media. This awesome high-winged monoplane will grace your installs next month assuming everything goes to plan. We plan to release it along with the Typhoon Mk.Ib (which we showed in a DD269) in our next update, which should happen by mid-June. Again, assuming final preparations go well. 

  
  

Also, our great friend Luke 'Requiem' Campbell has created a very helpful video on how to operate the GAZ-MM 72-K and improve your accuracy when shooting at planes and vehicles. Check it out! Thank you to Requiem for making another great training video!

GAZ-MM 72-K Steam Release!


Additionally, we have added the GAZ-MM 72-K to our Steam store today where it along with the official webstore will have it on discount for another week. You can pick it up HERE. 

 

All other work continues and our efforts to expand the team a bit so we can finish Normandy as planned continues. Stay tuned to our DDs all spring and summer long as we continue to build out BON and FC2! 

See you in the skies!

All the Normandy stuff looks pretty good!

They are creating one big game, with many theaters, many good quality planes, great feeling while flying. 
The Story isn't ending here, we will have many new content for the upcoming years!

That game engine may not last for many years... There is the Eastern Front and some of Western Europe at the moment.

If they end up with a new game engine it will have to start from scratch.

I don't think so they have to start from the scratch. Let it come and develop, this team is not the Star Citizen Team with millions of Dollars from backers.

Let it grow and enjoy

Oh I will old boy... that's why I've bought all their aviation stuff right from the start.

They plan to announce something next week, we have already alot of "tropical" stuff intergrated into the game... so ...
