Found this while looking around this morning. I'm looking forward to the Ju-88 and Itallians. Screenshots

Cool stuff. The Ju 88A should prove to be quite valuable. And those Macchis will be a treat to fly. I hope the modeling does them justice. A Spit IX at 25lb boost is nasty. If they model that to test specs, it will run side by side with the current P-51B/C on the deck. That means no speed advantage for the A-5/6/8. It will outclimb its old self by almost 1,000ft/min. And it already outturns and out-E conserves us by miles. And you thought you saw a lot of Spitfires before! Should make things interesting. Nevermind that it saw no more than token use until November 1944, I'm sure they'll have them all over the place.

I'm looking forward to the Pfiel and Ju88a, as the only game to have them so far has been CFS 3. With these Italian aircraft, they change even make a Mediterriean campaign. I doubt COT or FS will allow the Do335 as to most it was considered to be a "test aircraft", we can only hope.

A-4,5,6,8 are all a bit slower. A-9, D-9 the same. The A-5 1.65ata is just as fast as the A-8, 581. Tempest "only" does 600. Spit 25lb 566. Mossie 547. The poor P-38J got knocked down to 560, but the Ls are the same.

The Ju88a is awesome! Very good handling, they even premade some skins for use in future campaigns...now all we need is a night fighter campaign, BOB, and Mediterrean. One really liability is that you can't use the top right gunner platform (for AI only). Aside from that, the Do335 is amazing, very manouverable at high speeds. The Tempest is a monster, she'll be hard to beat in a fight (i'm sure many pilots will take her as a fighter). We got a new BF109K model, and A5 model as well as the Italian aircraft which are quite nice. Come on UBI make those campaigns!

d**n... I still have not been able to get the thing to patch and work. Posted some stuff on the UBI forums but no one has been able to help much. I even reinstalled the whole game and it all worked up until patching to 4.03M... I also downloaded the same patch from another website and it still didn't work.... sheesh... I have no idea what else to do.

It patched... I can see the new planes and everything seems prefectly fine. However, when ever I try to start a mission it tells me that the terrain or something can not be loaded... then say if it is the berlin map it says can not find Berlin/load.ini or Normandy/load1.ini... I did manage to get one of the maps in russia to work though... I got to fly the new planes and they all worked fine.
This is d**n frustrating... I have been really wanting to fly and I can't get any answers out of anyone to fix this.

Well Hot d**n! I finally got it to work. Everything looks to be doing fine. I was really getting concerned that I might not get to fly anymore.... I guess the third reinstall was the charm. I downloaded all new patches and everything. Still not sure what went wrong the first time but who cares now right?
