Oleg, a video request
 

(Oh no! not another "Please, Mr. Maddox. Make a special video just to please me" request.) Well,...yeah. I just watched Tuckie's latest video compilation. It showed lots of planes with wings being blown off. It got me wondering (since update videos are being released now). Is it possible to produce a very short video showing wings being shot off in SoW_BoB? I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd enjoy comparing the old with the new. If ya don't ask, they can't tell ya "no". No telling how long it might take Luthier to accomplish this little feat (shooting a wing off). I have no idea how good a shot he is. (no offense. I'm sincere)
Flyby out
BTW, props to Tuckie for another great video effort. :)

would love to see that too...or any type of shooting :) but i think we are a while off seeing anything like that.

NO SOUP FOR YOU!...come back in one year

well it might be a while, but I don't see that glass as half empty. not good for the spirit, don't ya know. rather, I'd like to think the sim will be released within six months or less, therefore making such a video do-able sooner rather than later. what with recent screens of damage modeling, it occurs to me that such damage had to be caused by SOMETHING. woodnya think?
I'll pass on the soup. where's the beef? :D
This is Flyby. out

Yes, we want videos of some dogfight in SoW and Olga pls! :grin:

the masses have spoken! Let there be video of wings shot off, fluttering in the breezes! (and soon too!)

S!

Would be nice to see any video and what realism settings were used etc. Sure looks purty now in DX 11.

S! 2u2!You've seen DX11 screens of SoW? Where? Where?! :D

ps pass the word. maybe we can increase the appeal of the requests of the masses if we have a few more of them ask in here. ;)

To be honest, and even it would be nice to see some video of the kind requested here, i prefer leave all that graphics effects to be kept secret so we will get more a surprise effect once the sim is released.
I would prefer to see and discuss more about FMB tools, third party development tools (adding humans, 3d models of ships, aircrafts and vehicles, creating maps), multiplayer campaigns, realism and views options, mission planning, and so on.
We have good damage modeling on IL-2, and we know it will be much more improved on SoW, the same with graphics. So i think it would be better to see more material from other things that are not visual effects related.
For example, i would like to know if now on the FMB we will be able to create packages of planes (diferent kind of planes that for one big group), packages of static or moving ground troops (tanks, vehicles, artiller an so on), and also for ships, and create fleets.
Or also would like to know if we will get limited external views, and things like that.

Ok, not df video maybe but least takeoff or landing video in a simulated airfield would be great.
