28 décembre 2021 IL-2 Great Battles 0 comments 683

Comme promis, les développeurs de la licence Great Battles viennent de sortir avant cette fin de l’année le patch 4.702 contenant le très attendu P-51 B-5 qui a effectivement eu beaucoup de retard sur le planning initial de la bataille de Normandie.

L’attente fut longue mais le résultat semble à la hauteur de nos espérances avec une quantité non négligeable d’options nouvelles, à savoir:

3 types de viseurs différents.
2 types de verrières dont la fameuse variante Malcolm Hood.
Différents types d’armement dont l’intégration de bombe selon la nationalité de la skin choisi (américaine ou anglaise)
Nouveau système de visualisation des dommages (Alias DVD) et des codes tactiques dynamiques.

Parmi les autres ajouts, à noter la sortie de 2 nouvelles campagnes gratuites pour Flying Circus: « Gallant Green » en (SE5a) et « Red Knights » en (Albatros DVa)
