It looks terrific! Interesting to see the amount of detail given to ground units. Can't wait!

Nice!! There's the real meat an potatoes we've all been wanting. Videos, system specs, development team info, and some pics from GC!

Waiting on an official update, but this is official enough :).

Edit:
Just had a chance to view the full vids. I'm not one to get emotional, but I got the shivers when I saw the gameplay video with the dogfights. It really reminded me of my time in Red Baron 3D, only so much better. The handling of the plane looks perfect, the graphics are great, and there's great ground scenery (a train, tanks, armored cars, etc). It was epic! Yes, I want it now \:\) \:\)

Bah, it's a fake as the Moon Landings. It's vaporware, I tell you, VAPORWARE!!!!

;\)

Simply stunning!

I do wonder about how far to the right that fellow was leaning in the 6DOF preview. He'd be unstrapped and nearly falling out of the cockpit!

Oh, man! That last video is stunning. I so greatly hope that the copy protection scheme is acceptable.

Great Stuff, the gameplay video particularly has made me want this product on my HD now \:\)

Very impressive graphically, lovely muted relections and lighting effects, very close to photoreal. AI flight model looks very smooth, no jerking around like we've got used to in IL2 recently.

Can we have a high res version of the vid please, I want to be able to view it full screen like I'm in control.

I love the way the Germans never much bothered with Camo in those days \:D

The D VII had the Lozenge painted over on the top and was bare underneath!!

Guess they were more worried about looking good than being

Fantastic in game footage btw, more please.

Hi Mogster

Interesting. What do you mean by jerking around in IL-2 recently? I don't have any jerking around to get used to.

Lovely videos, especially "the last" one with the dogfighting...

Is it only me or do they look more "IL2" again? Not that it is bad thing... I guess the fancy lighting effects have not been fine tuned yet (an a low res video "masks" them).

Hi Mogster

Interesting. What do you mean by jerking around in IL-2 recently? I don't have any jerking around to get used to.


I mean the mechanical way the AI flies the aircraft in IL2FB, the aircraft jerk from one position to another when you watch them. They sort of snap into a bank then snap back to level as they turn, that sort of thing.

It doesn't look like a human's flying the aircraft and spoils the fun of watching back videos. It wasn't always that way in IL2, it started with FB from what I remember. It was a response to people claiming that the AI wasn't challenging enough so Oleg gave it some help.

The KOTS AI looks great so far, it seems to move the aircraft around the sky in a convincingly human way.

The lighting effects on the player aircraft look fantastic. As for the terrain and non player aircraft it looks good but its a bit hard to tell from such a low res video.

Indeed Mogster.

(can't see well any tracer trails in this low-res footage)

The cockpit sounds seem to be nicely detailed, good engine and wind rush effects.

I like the birds tweeting in the quiet at the start and finish of the vid \:\) A nice touch, adds that bit of soul.
