You guys only talk about remove it, don't put it and etc.
Think big, this is a free world - make it switcheable, then everyone's happy.
And, guys, for heaven's sake, stop thinking you know more about flying than the devs do. I don't remember where I saw it, but if I remember correctly, Oleg was (is?) a pilot himself, so I'm pretty sure he knows how does it work.
The Storm of War x Wings of Prey debate is pointless. Two different approaches, with different public as well. While one tries to make graphics look only realistic, without making it too fancy, the other introduce a rather darker atmosphere, that gives a sort of dramatic feeling to it, and calls for more action. Would be interest to have both as an option, though.
However, I'm not sure if it fits Maddox Games' general idea for Storm of War to have unrealistic eye-candies just because they give a nice movie-style feeling to the whole thing.
I won't go any further because this is a thread dedicated to the updates, and not whining and another WoP debate which will end with WoP guys defending it blindly and the rest flaming it completely.
Also, people like to point to the devs that 2+2=4 and etc. without even reading the Q&A on the requests thread. Most things people complain and ask about have been explained more than a hundred times by the poor developers. They know how it should look, trust me.
Got a bit immersed in the rant and forgot to comment on the update!
Ilya, the screenshots are amazing. Nice look from the BR.20 cockpit. The Lorenz looks very nice (curiously, it's different than Team Daidalos one for Il-2). The detail on ships sometimes make me wonder if this is a new Silent Hunter or a flight simulator. Truly amazing. The water looks very nice. Now where's my life-jacket?
Now Ilya, let's admit it: MuxaHuk totally stole your thunder this time. And, hell, he should do it more often!
Unpolished or anything you want to call it, that's still a piece of art! Very pleasant sensation of being in a smooth level flight... and then jumping to a hardcore roller-coaster. Really, really nice. I can't get tired of seeing that Spitfire cockpit. Absolutely perfect.
And yes, unfortunately (
), you'll probably have to feed us with some moving action more often
