Mechanics

 
  • Use the ‘Selfie’ feature in-game and take a screenshot based on your chosen category:
    • Solo (1 character)
    • Pairs (2 characters)
    • Group (minimum of 3 – max of 5 members)
 
  • The following must be accomplished while taking the screenshot to make it a valid entry:
    • Make sure that the ‘Add Watermark’ option is turned on in the Camera settings for the Closers Online logo to appear in the results.
    • Make sure that all character names can be clearly seen in the screenshot; otherwise, the entry will be invalid.
    • Make sure that the event rules were followed accordingly (see Event Rules below).
 
  • After taking a screenshot, post your entry according to the category with your Year-end message
    • You may send a New Year’s greeting to Closers, your friends, crewmates, or anyone else you care about. It doesn’t have to be about the year that has just ended. It can be a message you wish to convey in anticipation of 2023!
    • Discord Channels:
      • #solo_year_end_party – for Solo category
      • #pair_year_end_party – for Pair category
      • #group_year_end_party – for Group category
    • You can only join once (1 Discord account = 1 Closers account) in any category during the event.
      • Example: If you already joined the ‘Solo’ category, your ‘Pair’ entry will be invalid.

Sample Entry

Cheers to a New Year! Hoping for everyone’s wishes will come true, more monsters to fight, and new memories to have, especially with my buddies in-game! <3



For the Pair and Group categories, only one representative should send in the entry.

Each member would receive a prize if a specific pair or group won.
• Note: If you have submitted more than one entry, we will only refer to the first entry submitted. So, if more than one representative posted an entry, we will refer to the first representative who posted the entry.
• If a participant joined again, but with a different pair or group, that individual would be disqualified.

IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad - -DED-Rapidus
Dear Friends,

Year 2022 is ending and, as we’re accustomed to, it’s time to sum up its results and discuss the future. 2022 was a year of big changes for IL-2 - our team has increased in size and is determined to achieve even more. We have completed nearly everything planned for this year: Battle of Normandy was the most massive release since 2012 and the finishing of Flying Circus Vol.II is in sight. We continue to develop the Great Battles world by releasing hundreds of improvements - some of them are very significant. Before moving to the next year plans, let’s reflect on the Great Battles stats for this year.

We have released 9 updates that brought 365 listed changes and improvements including:

  • Battle of Normandy release.


6 fundamental visual improvements:

  • New physically based sky dome tech;
  • Realistic visualization of formation lights for all aircraft;



  • Tactical numbers for all aircraft and player controllable tanks;
  • New visualization of propellers for all aircraft;



  • Dynamic Visual Damage (DVD) system applied for all aircraft and player controllable tanks;
  • Numerous revamped graphical effects;



Two new huge maps:
  • Northern France and Southern England (in two variations, with Quick Mission Builder, Advanced Quick Mission Generator and Career modes support);



  • Western Front, Spring 1918 (with Quick Mission Builder mode support, the other two modes are in development);



New scenario campaign His Majesty’s Griffons;:
  • “His Majesty’s Griffons”


10 new released aircraft (9 are player-controllable):
  • Ju 88 C-6 “Zerstörer”



  • Mosquito F.B. Mk.VI series.2



  • Arado AR 234 B-2 “Blitz”



  • Me 410 A-1 “Hornisse”



  • Douglas C-47A “Skytrain”



  • B-26B-55 “Marauder" (AI)



  • Handley Page O/400



  • Gotha G.V



  • Sopwith Triplane



  • Sopwith Snipe



Two new player controllable combat vehicles:
  • Churchill IV



  • StuG III Ausf.G



9 new AI controllable combat vehicles:
  • Bedford QLD (AI)
  • Bedford QLC (AI)
  • Universal Carrier Mk.II (AI)



  • Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf.H (AI)
  • Pz.Kpfw. V Ausf.G "Panther" (AI)



  • Morris C9B with Bofors 40/L60 (AI)
  • Flakpanzer IV "Möbelwagen" (AI)



  • M8 "Greyhound" (AI)
  • Sd.Kfz. 234/2 "Puma" (AI)



7 new ships:
  • Landing Craft Assault (LCA)
  • Landing Craft Mechanized (LCM)



  • Landing Craft Tank (LCT)
  • Bayfield-class military transport
  • Liberty military transport
  • Design 1013 cargo ship



  • Gleaves-class destroyer


In addition, today we’re releasing 5.004b hotfix so your playing experience on the holidays will be even better.

Despite all the grim news of 2022, we were able to find a way not only to continue working, but to expand, probably in the most spectacular way since 2012 - the team size has increased by nearly a quarter. We are joined by two new programmers, two FM engineers, two 3D artists and two community managers. And this is only a beginning since we plan to continue the expansion.
All the not-so-easy changes that happened to IL-2 in 2022 allowed to get rid of the old thinking that held back our development. The need for changes in the technological base is long overdue. However, the former focus on producing primarily new content did not allow the team to fully unlock its potential associated with the full-fledged development of technology and improving the quality of the sim. The new strategy, adopted by the middle of the year, gave us freedom to choose the direction of development, as well as the opportunity to attract new resources.

There are ambitious goals ahead, and the team is gathering strength and resources to reach them. Here’s what we have planned for the next year:

  1. Bring the production of the new large-scale project to full speed;
  2. Complete the development of a number of new base technologies for the new project, which we started working on last year already;
  3. Develop new approaches to the user experience in the next project, taking into account all the previous experience (both our own and that of our competitors);
  4. Continue releasing new content for the Great Battles world;
  5. Add new employees to the team, increasing the number of team members by 1.5 times in total;
  6. Establish partnerships with teams and enthusiasts who will help us in the development of the Great Battles world, as well as in the creation of content for the new project.

It's been a long, eventful year, which we've managed to go through almost in full accordance with the previously planned plans, even building up potential along the way. Interesting and vast tasks lie ahead of us and we’re not doubting the eventual success. The work schedule is ready, the strategy is approved, the team is full of enthusiasm.

Clear prop! And Happy New Year!
