To Steve,

Are the explosions in the game supposed to come out of the ground like it does in the demo? If it isn't, has it been fixed since the release of the demo?

Also, I think the camera shaking is overdone, and the shimmering effect mentioned previously in other threads should be attended to.
These are minor things, but please get them fixed.

Thanks.

I don't have the demo...I don't see these things in the game.

Sounds good then.

As a matter of info though; running the demo on a Geforce2 GTS card with the 12.00 drivers; I only see 2 graphic anomolies

1. The 2 Swedish planes each have 2 polygons that appear to flash on and off. They're located at the bottom of each plane and it looks 2 black holes when they go missing. I'd attribute it to the Geforce driver problem; but it only happens to those 2 planes.

2. The sky texture sometimes will blink on and off. This does not happen a lot and only to the bottom texture. This does not happen often and sometimes will not happen at all. May have something to do with what the camera is doing.

I will agree though that the camera shake is a bit overdone. The camera shake when a plane gets hit is cool, but I don't think it should happen when the plane getting hit is not in the shot. (or your're not in the plane). In the demo it's hard to tell sometimes when the shake is due to some poor sap getting shot out of the sky off screen; or whether your card card is aboove to explode.
