The 0.86.16 demo update adds a new progression system that allows you to unlock all 6 demo aircraft, and play new missions. The progression system is a simplified version of what will be in the full game, tailored to the content available in the demo. The way the progression system works is you start at the beginning of the war, and as you complete missions you progress through the war's timeline, whereby new aircraft become available based on the date they first entered service. Missions are also unlocked in the same way.
Here's a full list of new features:
- Added the ability to fly all of the aircraft that you can see in the menu once they're unlocked.
- Included additional missions for both sides that can be unlocked as you progress throughout the war's timeline.
- There is now a progression system based on the war's timeline, as you complete missions and earn points you'll progress through the war, which will unlock aircraft and missions.
- Added language support for Ukrainian.
- Minor aircraft model improvements to the cockpits.
- Added joystick and gamepad look support to the third person view, and smoothed out the look reset to be less jarring. As part of this work I've removed extra side and front third person cameras as they are no longer required.
