Author Topic: What do we know is, or has been strongly hinted at, coming in 1.08? (Read 549 times)

HiTech posted the film of the train. Its a safe bet that trains are coming in 1.08.

Pyro posted a request for images of the cockpit views of the Tu-2. I'm betting the Tu-2 is comming in 1.08.

Some others have apparently been told of, and recieved screenshots via email, the P-51H Mustang. It seems that the P-51H Mustang will be added as a perk plane in 1.08.

1) Trains & roads (Confirmed)
2) Me262 (Confirmed)
3) Hurricane MkIIc (Confirmed)
4) Tu-2 (Hinted at)
5) P-51H Mustang (Hinted at by the FDB, so consider the source)
6) Tiger II (Hinted at by Hangtime)

Anybody know of anything else? (I know there is more, I just don't know if anybody who is a liberty to say anything knows.)

Are you sure about the Tu-2?

I saw pyro asking for screenshots of the cockpit... but does that mean they want to include it in 1.08 or that it is being developed for release at a later date?

DeeZCamp,

Yes, the Me262 will be a obvious perk fighter when, and I ephasize "when", it is added.

However, this thread is intended to be about things that we have information indicating that they are comming, not our wishlists.

AKDejaVu,

No, I'm not sure. The Tu-2 falls under the "hinted at" category. Every time they've done this before the aircraft has been in the next version.

MOre anti-Luftwaffe bias from Grapevine. Unbelievable!

The Brits get the Hurricane II and the Jerries get stuck with the Me-262.

When will it end? When will the poor downtrodden Jerries get a fair shake from HTC?

Anyone for a Spit XIV? Oops, sorry RAF.. that just wouldn't be sporting, now would it? Stiff upper lips, old chaps.

BTW, the -262 should be unperked. They should ALL be unperked.

I know, let's bring in the Hurricane, Fairy Battle, Defiant, Spit I, Blenheim, Gloster Gladiator and Supermarine Swordfish. Then when the Brits whine they haven't got any unperked late war fighters, we can tell them to shut up because they have more planes than anyone else.
Karnak, I wish I hadn't edited that remark you thought was "too harsh"

In case u dont know--Hurri IIc is more of a mid-war tankbuster. 2x40mm Vickers S, and 2x.303's.

Karnak · « **Reply #13 on:** August 10, 2001, 04:32:00 PM »

Ding,

That's the Hurri IId. The IIc has 4 Hispano cannon with 91 rounds each.

Its a 334mph 1941 target for your Me262 to squish at will.
