joebloggs Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Who is developing the Spitefire? Who is developing the Spitefire and is it anywhere near release? I did a search in the search bar but nothing came up. I'm really looking forwards to this aircraft and just want some info about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joebloggs Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Will the Spitefire require a full scale joystick and does this mean it will be useless trying to fly it without one? I know they obviously want to make it as realistic as possible, but most people don't have a full scale flight stick. Couldn't they alter the controls to make it realistic with a normal stick or is this something you can you do yourself in the config? I think it's going to be difficult enough trying to learn all the gauges and stuff, without making it difficult to fly without a full joystick. Edit: I just heard of an extension you can get for the Warthog Joystick, but where in the UnitedKingdom can you get this? Also, what size extension would you suggest I get? Thanks!

You know you can change axis sensitivity and curvature setting is the game options? It won't feel that accurate but you can still make easier not to stall with with your hand twitch.

Yeah, but I don't want it been a nightmare to fly if I can't get it accurate enough using these settings. Now I'm thinking I may need an extension to the Hotas Warhog, but I can't seem to find a place that sells them in the UnitedKingdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bart Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Just found this on you tube........ Good colour footage of Spitfire Mk IX's - some have clipped wings as our version will have.

Art-J Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 If it was Burma, the Spit would have SEAC RAF roundels, there would be no B-17s around as they never flew there and the Mustangs would not sport the Mediterranean paintcheme :D.

Silver_Dragon Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 a question. ED Maintain the tentative date to 2015 or moving the Spitfire Mk.IX (as P-39) to 2016? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Purely speculating here but... It seems ED is focusing now on getting the L-39 and 1.5 ready for release by the end of September, which is approaching, rapidly. After that focus will likely shift to getting the features polished and NTTR blocking issues taken care of for a projected release of 2.0 and NTTR Alpha by the end of the year. It's likely we won't hear much news about the Spitfire (or even P-47) until after 2.0 and NTTR are in the hands of the public. Not to say that there isn't progress being made, I think the last update we got from Matt on the Spitfire was that code was being written, not much to show. Probably Q1 2016 for a more cumulative update. Just my guess. i7 7700K | 32GB RAM | GTX 1080Ti | Rift CV1 | TM Warthog | Win 10 "There will always be people with a false sense of entitlement.
