The Main map for IL-2 was recently released. So I decided to fly over the city and see how it looked.

I must disagree, this game looks so great and only in alpha. Although the city itself could use additional detailing which im sure will come itsabeta (alpha)

I love your choice and use of music in your videos. This piece sounds familiar but whatever it is, it about makes me want to cry. Beautiful.

Thank you Coot! I cant remember the name of the track off hand, but it is in the video description. It is also available for free download from the youtube music library. Thank you for your support!

I see no point in adding more detail to the map than what is there now, unless they want to add a version without snow. The existing buildings may look arbitrary on their own, but the collective impression is very good. More importantly the performance seems to be good; why sacrifice performance (in a combat sim) for eye candy? If this was FSX, then by all means add more detail.

I like where this sim is going.
