Really nice stuff! The detail in the Zero engine is really good!

Well if vr is part of the build from the gitgo I will definitely buy it day one. Thx

Man I can’t wait to take off (and hopefully land lol) on the E! The game will need to be vr for me to buy it but man or man when/if that happens it will be jolly freakin good!

Thanks Mysticpuma! I know you are a dedicated summer. I’ve seen ya over at il2 and clod and elsewhere. Good to be a part of the pacific gang!

I am hopeful that this sim will be designed to take full advantage of any multi core/thread CPU and modern gpu’s. While my system is no longer high end a machine running a 5.0 ghz multi thread/core cpu (9700k @5.0 all cores), 16 gb of 3600 ram and a 3080 gpu should be able to run the game in vr (g2)!at high graphics settings with lots of action at sea and air without slowdowns and stuttering. Some compromises will be required I know but should not be many. Maybe I am dreaming but that’s my hope. I would even be willing to upgrade the cpu, mb and ram if that would achieve smooth and consistent fps at 90 hz. If this game results in just another system hog that does not properly leverage modern hardware including vr I will pass on it for sure. I think I saw something from Jason or someone else suggesting vr may not be supported out of the gate. Personally that would be disappointing and would cause me not to buy the game. Guess time will tell on these matters. I share these things to help the developers understand what is important to one 30 year simmer. Nothing more or less.

Thanks Skelthos, it appears my posts no longer require moderator approval.

Hello and welcome to the forums @TheSNAFU. Thanks Wheelsup! Appreciate the welcome

Hi everyone. I am a long time simmer. I have spent most of my sim time on IL2 over the past 10 or so years and am happy to see Jason reengaged in the building of this one. Best of luck, can’t wait to play it!! By the way why are my posts delayed pending moderator approval? Is this short term or is that the way the site works?

My favorite and vote for two best combat flight sims are EAW and BOB2. Both had engaging campaigns, good ai, nice visuals and ultimately excellent performance on the pc for their day. Shows what can be done in those categories which is where modern sims fall flat to me. Hopefully this game will fully leverage today’s pc power particularly in vr while hitting the marks for campaign, ai and visuals.
