IL-2 Great Battles Dev News

For those who haven’t experienced it, this is what @smokinhole is talking about.

You don’t see this on the ground. Maybe if you are at the top of a very high mountain?

I’m… wow.

yes please

It’ll be a bundle edition and announcement for a different Theater of War.

Plus Rise of Flight 2!
HEY! A MAN CAN DREAM!

It needs to be Guadalcanal BEFORE Midway. You know - a plausible map to fly the P-40, P-39, Spit, and A-20 we will already have. You can still do all the carrier stuff you want for Coral Sea. Then Midway is just a sea map with an island and more planes.

or you know, unless you’re an Enterprise or Yorktown SBD pilot, or James Thatch, Midway at a tactical level is going to be boring at best, and an unmitigated slaughter at worst.

So with so few land masses in either setting (i.e. objects/buildings), and as Tankerwade mentioned they have a few planes that are already built that appeared in that theater, I wonder if they will will see EA fairly quick?

Not saying anything is easy, but art-wise there is quite a bit less than the theaters we have now.
