While the arenas were down last night I was shooting drones offline.  The first time the "debris.wav" played, I thought I got hit by my own ack.  Looked around for damage, saw nothing.  After a couple more "clangs" I finally figured out it was the pieces coming off the drones coming back and hitting me.  Confirmed this by looking into the sounds folder and sorting for date; the newest file was "debris.wav."  Cool stuff HTC!

yeah the little things they added have done a lot to improve the game. I liked that if you are on the runway you get the normal smoke from the tires but when you go off it changes to dirt being kicked up. HTC

the only thing that confuses me about this awesome update is that the flames vanish when a wing falls off....

other than that, its totaly first class.

i shot someone down real close yesterday and the debris from the explosion hit my plane.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

Although I'm limited to h2h at the moment, I have to say 2.02 is a huge improvement in eye candy and immersion.

The only thing I dont really care for is the new look of the puffy ack.

 While its effect seems a bit more 3dish which is a good thing
I personally dont care for the new shape.

Looks more like a bunch of black dots then puffs of flak fire.
Almost like someone was dabbing the sly with black magic marker

I think the shape of the old ack was better.

Just my opinion

The ack is awesome on my end, the nice red explosion and then a round shaped black smoke no dots here.

it took me awile to figure out the banging noise in the 109 was the leading edge slats opening and closing.

Check your detail level.  I am seeing red explosions in the center of the black puff, looks awesome.  And explody.

That sound effect has been part of the game for quite a while now.  :)

I haven't flown enough yet to see all the things that are mentioned in this thread.  The post about smoke trailing a low-flying aircraft really amazed me.  And, I can't wait to see the debris.wav in action.

From what I've heard...I'm very impressed with this patch.  wtg everyone at HTC!  And, THANK YOU!!!
