If this launches with multiplayer multi crew this might be one of the best VR games out there
its multiplayer co-op, so you and your friends can be the entire crew at once
@@WafflesAreLit0 Your poor friend who is navigator, and just has to sit and quietly do math for 10 hours.
@@peno100 Then tell you he's been on a course of 180 instead of 090 for the last hour. 🙂
YES
Navigator to Pilot, I thought you said “weest”
VR is the closest we'll get to time-travel.
I get to travel through time every moment of every day... only forward tho unfortunately 😉
@@OrlandoDibiskittwait your Time Machine is broke too !?! I thought it was just mine lol
@@OrlandoDibiskitt Now that is an excellent comment :)
My inner child is pretty excited, it's hard to believe that as a kid, this is how realistic Combat Flight Simulator 3 appeared to me.
My exposure to that was with the 90s sims.... Microprose and others.
@@JDAeroVR Remember Janes Combat? I had the WW2 fighters and the F-15 game, I also had an Apache and F-22 Simulator but my dad couldn't get the F-22 sim to run and I was too young to mess with PCs at that time.
I need to spend a weekend digging through my old games assuming the parents didn't toss them after I left, most of them weren't labeled if you know what I mean.
RIP Kazaa.
I have been gaming since I got an atari 2600 for christmas back in 1979, and to have witnessed how video games have evolved over the last 40+ years is amazing. Makes me wonder, whats next?
I guess the movie Player One is soon to be a reality.
This game looks incredible.
Coleco vision for me.
Imagine a multiplayer version is whole squadrons made up of IRL players. Would love to see a persistent campaign that reacts to how many objectives the community achieves
I can imagine all the people playing this game being in that plane... yay!
@@zaelu I will meet you at the rally point! Then it's onto Dresden!
I mean i have dreamed of that since the Amiga version!
@@zaelu in rl, the B-17F and G models had ten crewmembers. Starting from the nose: 1) Bombardier, 2) Navigator, 3) Pilot, 4) Co-Pilot, 5) Flight Engineer (top turret gunner), 6) Radio Operator, 7) and 8) Waist Gunners, 9) Ball Turret gunner, and 10) Tail Gunner
would be awesome if each of these roles had actual depth for legit gameplay, and would also like to see accurate/precise damage modeling and penetration physics
@@a36538 I have some good news! Devs said they want to flesh out all the roles :D
I'm old enough to remember the Microprose B17 Flying fortress game on the Amiga from the early 90s. How things have changed considerably!
I'm old enough to remember the 1970's when Pong was the only video game available.....How things have changed indeed!
The sound track alone is perfect! Dev's we are happy to enjoy watching your Hard work in progress. Cheers!
I am So Excited about all the VR games you have coming. Carrier Command is an absolute masterpiece, and I am so thankful to have games from you with such depth and amazing gameplay. Looking forward to The Mighty Eighth VR as well! THANK YOU for all you do to add to the VR community.
Carrier Command is one of the most atmospheric VR games I've ever played. It could do with better VR controls.. But the game itself is awesome. Shooting out a flare at night is so cool in that game. It feels very real even though the graphics are synthwave-ish.
@@JimmyNuisance ya I agree, just being in the bridge, watching it all happening over an island, just an incredible experience. It's one of those games that will be heralded as one of the most innovative of all time, in time. It needs One more pass, just to make all the buttons VR active, then it will be able to be seens as completed and can survive forever out there.
Thank you for this video. My grandfather flew bombers in the great war. He sat and watched this with me. As the video progressed, he became very emotional and started to sob. He could not get over how accurate the shooting up of the base was. Before every mission, my grandfather would get behind the machine gun in his jeep, and blast as much of the camp as he could. And, after boarding his airplane, he would continue to shoot up the place. Once airborne, he too would go from machine gun to machine gun and indiscriminately shoot his weapon. After the video was over, I hugged my grandfather, and thanked him for his service.
This lives or dies on the quality of the single player Ai. No way your getting 8 players reliably and regularly to play together, unless it's a friend group.
Or a Genre video game that had alot of milsim lore
I would also include the replay ability of the single player scenarios and the presence of the dynamic campaign
@@bohdanherasymenko7569if I remember correctly, the original plan was to have this be kind of story based, not a full autonomous campaign. Things may have changed since then though.
@bohdanherasymenko7569 custom scenarios would be cool too, like one of the old il2 games
Impressive work, from the ground textures to the clouds. Massive update since the Mighty 8th 20+ years ago 😊
This looks amazing. I for one hope that it will include a reasonable level of 'study sim' elements...e.g., cowl flaps, oil and CHTs, turbo management etc. One can hope 😁 Keep it up team!
No way will it be that.
Wow, i just watched Taff Bomb, a submarine depot, and about 150 civilian houses in the other game. This looks amazing.
Taff wasn't playing the Redux, he switched back to the old version due to bugs in the redux.
I was at Thorpe Abbotts today, and you've got the watch tower and engine shed spot on.
I love this!!! I would love to see free movement prioritized going further to help with immersion while traversing through the plane. Having to duck irl or with a thumb stick and then using a stick input to crawl through tight areas would really help put the Cherry on top and make this game memorable.
I genuinely love the fact that this game is still being developed and improved as time goes by. Can’t wait till you guys release The Bloody 100th. Nice job!❤❤
this will be an instant purchase for me, it's a game I could only ever have dreamt about
I love the look of this, my only hope though is that they allow the use of the controller joysticks for controlling flight inputs if we wish, I always hate how in VR flight games the actual movement of the hand without anything to stabilize against can make for extremely unstable and jarring movement. If not no worries I’ll still love to be able to fly a b17 at this level!🤘🏼
Thank you For posting some Progress on this wonderful game we all are looking forward to. After Watching Apple TV+ Masters of the Air, You are what I am thinking of. Take all the time you need to get it ready. I never made it to 25 in the first one. I can wait to die again. At 6' tall I was shocked when I got inside a real B17. The crews were small in size to fit yet stood taller then most that served in this area of fighting. The Bloody 100th is proof of that. Brave beyond understanding for every mission.
i have got to say i really love how it looks and i cant wait to be flying a b-17 with a crew amazing dev blog keep up the good work.
This one is amazing! 😃 It's the illusion I've had since I was a child! 😃 Where can you pre-purchase this wonder?
The racking of the M2 twice is such a great detail.
Been waiting for so long, I am extremely excited, keep up the good work.
This looks so good, can't wait. :)
This game looks epic!!! I’m just chomping at the bit to play this.
Damn, it simply great you devs turned your inside to the outside outstanding work...Keep it up.👍
Holy cow! This looks AMAZING!
Microprose doing VR... 17-year old me in 1994 has been waiting for this, since playing F-15 Strike Eagle on my Atari ST in 1993.
Im gonna have to binge rewatch Masters of the Air again now, thanks for this.
Great progress! Looking forward to play it once released, hope we’ll see bomb aim sight and some working cockpit instruments in the following updates!
i cant wait for this game!
Currently my most anticipated game.
This looks incredible!
This game looks amazing I’ve been waiting for so long for some news about it
This looks amazing!
Can't wait!!!! This is awesome! And it's MicroProse which I've always been a fan of.
Looks very promising, excited to see more.
WE CANT WAIT FOR THIS
finally the legend is back but in coop
I’m just now hearing about this. I’m big into DCS WW2. I always thought it would be awesome to go to a briefing room and get your brief. Be able to do a preflight of your airplane. Even have an officers quarters to debrief over a few pints with the boys
Impressed! Can't wait to see more
wow next level immersion
I can't wait more!
Absolutely cannot wait.
*_This VR game is going to be really amazing!_** :D*
Good to have devs acting in the absolute niche of vr. I will ever follow.
Cant wait for this, bring it on. This will be amazing
Now that is insane!
Microprose - Man, this brings back memories.
I have waited so long for an update I’m so thankful I will die just to see this game get released
Just amazing
i hope the muzzle flashes are a place holder. but otherwise omg i cannot wait for this!
I want this sooooo bad, can't wait
Awesome!
Phenomenal!!!
Please, please implement cold-start!
Edit: Also, if you could somewhat emulate what VTOL Vr has done for its switches (ie you have a in-game arm that follows your hand and lets you physically reach out and hold the buttons)? It adds SO MUCH IMMERSION to see that you actually have an arm in-game.
Firing the guns on the ground? That's a court-martialing! The ground crew nearly hitting the plane whilst it's taxiing? That's a court-martialing! Taking off without the access door closed and locked? That's a tongue lashing from the captain! Yes work in progress I know, I'm just being silly. Would be cool though if there were consequences for those actions. Maybe the door could flap about in the wind bashing the fuselage until someone closed it? Also if the gunners could hit their own plane causing damage that should be modelled with consequences too! Still very cool!
It can't be true! A dream come true! 😀
OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD ive been waiting for this for months !!!!!! ithought it was dead in the water !! im ssoooooooooooooooooo exited for this !!! i so cant wait please make it quick !!!!
wow!!
Looks impressive
Multiplayer and Multi-crew will be awesome!
Really cant wait for this game it looks absolutely amazing, hope you get the option to join crews and not just people in your friends list. Still no release date yet which is a shame, wonder if they will be wanting testers.....
Hyped
I believe more dramatic takeoff effects would be great. Im aware this is a work in progress.
I love it
Wow. This really does look interesting indeed. You get a subscribe people! Make it awesome! ♥
The muzzle flash is a little much for daytime. Yes I have thousands of rounds through the M2, single and twin mounts.
But this looks awesome, I'll finally have to get a VR headset. Microprose is on a tear as a publisher.
Do you have to cock the gun twice like in the video?
Oh wow Im 2 mins in it looks great!!!!
wow this might be what finally pushes me to buy a VR set
Very cool
Looking good
Great work. Noticed a few things on my first watch. There seemed to be some noticeable delay (lag) in the early parts of the video. Also unless I may have missed it but we saw most of the stations however we did not see the lower ball turret (which is the position I have most interest in). Really like the sounds of the guns however the jeeps engine just sounded awful (to me at least). Hope we can get more of these dev blogs to see how it comes along. Still very much looking forward to this game being released. It is my most wished game ATM 😀
This is still early dev.. why would sounds be completed at this stage?
@@NyteStalker89 I was not stating they are final sounds however just pointing out that this sound is particularly bad so they can work on this first (at least hoping so) 😉
I like to walk around as much as I can in Warthunder bombers, but I can only get halfway down the fuselage. This looks great.
If this turns out to be multiplayer I can’t wait to get a case of beer, hop in the co-pilot position, and tell everyone they are doing a wonderful job. 😂. I’ll be your hype man.
it's.. been confirmed as MP Co-op for like three years
I can't wait to slap on the headset, hop in the navigator seat smoke endless bongs while give backwards bearings and altitude call outs...
"bubbling noises....Proceed at heading 2500, alt 162 m.... cough"
I'm an avid VR flight simmer and this is the first I've heard of this game. Although combat is not my preferred activity in gaming, I'd be very interested in giving it a try.
MicroProse… My first games in the 80s
Really cool but I think the muzzle flashes looks exaggerated
Bro forgot to close the door 💀
Attack the D point!
Imagine being in the formation of 100s of B-17Gs and then your Navigator who has been doing math for the last few hours just says "FOLLOW THE FLOCK! I WANNA REST!"
Looks like Thorpe Abbotts ❤
Thank you for the new update.! ....It's brilliant to know it's still a WIP!!! .. maybe I can sleep better now?!!! 💙
Holy sh*t yes!
I think the sharpening on the graphics is a bit too strong.
WOW!!!
I always thought a coop vr bomber game would be perfect.
This is more like it! hopefully its multiplayer too.
awesome sauce
This is incredible 😮 Although a small criticism, I would much rather hear the engine noise than the music.
I dont have VR, but game looks great.
Game looks very good. I hope for PvP and PvE mode with missions within the single player campaign. I remember MicroProse from the old days, they always made very good games.
Glad the intrusive thoughts didn't win at 15:00
OMG!!
So you have the radio gunner gun which if fine for an F but it looks like you have the nose turret of the G - your plate says the plane is an F - Are you just adding all guns for your demo and will the plane in game be configurable with guns or default to a historical load out?
Chin turret started with late F (F-60-DO if I'm not mistaken) models built by Douglas
Finally
oh yes
Wow, i can finally play as Yossarian! ...maybe...
My intrusive thoughts wants you to walk into the props.
I hope you reduce the fire effect out the muzzle of the 50 cals
I still often fly a mission or two in F-19 Stealth fighter... And F117 but not as much as F19
