As far as Graphics go, If A10 is on par with SOW I'd be surprised. But then we haven't seen the finished product of either sim, so we're just speculating. Again.

Nice knobs, buttons and LCDs... Now, where's planes? :grin:

On a serious note, I wish, they'd merge all Lock-On lineage into a single game, where you could fly all planes/choppers from Lock-On, Flaming Cliffs, Ka-50 and A-10. Then, I would even consider buying it. :rolleyes:

This video is in fact a very impressive visual demonstration of graphic realisation...Modern jet simmers must be very happy ! Good for that crowd...
Top notch flight sims of all kinds is only good news for the whole sim community...It shows to publishers and investors that it is still good business...:rolleyes:

Salute !

Actually I can't tell how good the graphics are - all the interesting scenes are blurry.

No, it's not like I feel cheating by buying other game, or flightsim. Not at all. I have Lock-On and Flaming Cliffs, though I don't remember, when I played them last time. It's just that I too used to IL-2, where one can pick any plane, ever made for this game (or it's add-ons) and fly it in the same game.

Having to install a new game which has about 60% of content exactly the same as the previous one, just to fly one new plane seems to me, therefore, a bit annoying. Hence, I didn't buy Ka-50 and will not buy A-10, probably, as well.

But, should they include into the "A-10" all maps and flyables from previous Lock-On series, even for a higher price, I'd, much probably, would get it.



Hope, it's not post-processed and is 100% in game...

Actually, I was saying that what could be considered a really really good 2011 product by many simmers, technologicaly speaking, would in my opinion, be surpassed by SOW....

Conclusion: I was complimenting Oleg and his team....That is all...:grin:

We know what Oleg thinks of WOP, so would he consider this one to be a good graphical match in terms of terrain, clouds, special f/x, immersion , etc....?

Personnally, from what I have seen so far, I have no doubt that SOW COULD in fact be superior in many aspects....;)

seriously i like the way the pilots visor auto lowers itself along with the canopy, apparently they didnt have the budget to even make a simple hand movement, id like to see the pilot give a thumbs up and wave to the non existent ground crew as well.. what a piece of crap joke

You seem to have a very firm conviction that the A10 sim is 'utter crap'. It would be interesting to hear the criteria that your using to base your opinion.

Except for the extremely steep learning curve (and the fact that the planes dont have props!), I didn't think it was too bad.

Cheers!

OOps! I misunderstood your intention here. I agree that it looks interesting, but modern jets just don't do it for me, so I'll probably skip it. I also agree that SOW will look better :)

In that case im not expecting much from DCS A10 warthog.

Im sure some here have experience with LOCK-ON.
