Hello Dear Users!
We are approaching the end of October and that means the next update for our game is in the pipeline.
Throughout this month, we were working hard on new functionality and content. The new playback system is being tested now and you will get this feature in November with update 1.009. This system provides you with new possibilities to record in-game videos. It is a very powerful but easy to use tool. I will fill you in on the details of this as we get closer to 1.009. But in today's post, I would like to introduce to you two planes that you will see with update 1.008. First, I have to say, it was really difficult to model these birds. We thoroughly examined all the materials we could get our hands on and watched numerous videos of them dozens and dozens of times.
The one thing we were sure of was that these planes needed to be the next to appear in the game. Our desire seems to coincide with the opinions of our users, who took part in surveys and in polls on the forum. These planes are acknowledged as among the most famous and iconic planes of World War I. It is with great pride that I introduce these amazing birds to the 'Rise of Flight' virtual skies — The Fokker Dr.I and Sopwith Camel.

We hope you will have as much fun flying these birds as we did when we modeled them. Personally, I could not decide which one is better. Both planes are unique in piloting and maneuvering. I would caution you not to be deceived by the ease with which these planes fly through the air. Both aircrafts are rather prankish and temperamental in landings but they can show you their mettle in maneuvers. I wish you good luck in flying these unique planes.
As always, you will get detailed information about update 1.008 on the day when it becomes available for download.
