  1. From what I have read, reading the histories of Norwegian Spitfire squadrons (Under RAF) as well as "The Big Show" by french pilot Clostermann, it seems they got the heads up very, very, close to the event. Like the 4th or 5th of June. They off course knew the invasion was imminent, they trained for it extensively, but that it was june 6 and Normandy seemed to be known very late (although I suspect many had put their money on it before the announcement). If I remember correctly, Clostermann knew about it a few days before, due to some assignment, and was not allowed to fly until the the invasion was underway (So he would not get shot down and captured).

  2. I was JUST going to post this myself.

     

    Many months ago now, they teased that the have included concrete airfields for appriate airfields, that the have improved the coastline and spread farms, windmills and bridges across the map. They hoped we would see it soon TM.

     

    The airfields from that video mirrors the airfields shown in the Spitfire trailer from over a year ago. They are FAR better than what we have now (I think it is the same in the above vid, but that one seems to have the old shader, making it look not so good). The odd thing is that the map are recieving small "quiet" addons, like the new estuarys, some field textures etc without mention.

     

    A written update with some screenshots would go a VERY long way here instead of sitting in the dark for months and months. I know that the default answer is "they will show when there is something to show", but surely they have something they can drip feed us a bit with regarding this map.

     

    Could we see a new airfield or coastline for example? Will speedtrees be implemented or not?

     

    Info and screenshots keeps the hype and interest fresh. Hope there will be some more info soon.

  3. I can't understand why they don't have more of the changes listed in their changelogs. There is a TON of changes that are not listed- I just think it is weird that the people that work on it don't want it mentioned. The new tracers and flak effects, improved textures in Normandy, changes to trees in Normandy (to make roads visible again), changes to the grass (Still the ugly stones lying everywhere though). And these are just a few of the things that I picked up personally. 2.5 is a tremendous update, but the changelog looks very humble.
