I didn’t get an answer in the devblog thread, so I ask it here since we are 1 day away from release. Official response would be apperciated by everyone here I think.

The new graphical features are a huge intervention in the coding. Would you recommend uninstalling the game completely and install it again from scratch along with the update, or do you expect no issues updating the game as is?

Which nvidia driver version should we use with the new update?

PS: Backup your controls.

This isnt related to the update, but I was experiencing severe freezes and lags (the game would freeze completely for 10-30 seconds), as well as FPS drops. I reinstalled the game, and now everything is fine. You dont have to do the same. But I would recommend at least clearing cache files in the game’s folder

New skins added to the files

As is now kind of a tradition, skins were added to the files after the (first) dev server. Some of these skins may not actually be new, I haven’t checked them on the dev server to know. Just like the previous couple of times, I’m going to use real life counterparts or Gaijin images.

Might be a bit late but no

QiniteQ, a British based defence company, used 12 ex-Luftwaffe Alpha jets however they were painted in RAF livery and given Military Serials (ZJ644 - 656) Most of the time they had QiniteQ painted just below the cockpit like below however its quite easy to confuse them with Actual RAF aircraft, especially considering Black is the main colour for the Hawks as well

iirc they were never armed in QiniteQ use so its probably not going to come to britain any time soon

We have plenty of other options britain can get anyways, such as (kinda obviously) the Hawk (we can get about 10 variants between about 9.0 and 13.7) as well as the Impalas
