First I would like to thank you for the interesting pictures you are sharing with us. Many of us are hungry for information about the "BoB SoW" game and seeing information about flak damage and aircraft modeling is very tasty indeed...thnks
My first question is about "active" (moving) ground objects...will we have animated livestock (sheep, cows, dogs) and will we have moving people running, walking, working and fighting in the virtual world below us...It would be wonderful to have soldiers react to diving Stuka...and it would feel quite satisfying to watch people run as you strafe an airfield (I know their is an issue with graphic gore, but maybe people could just fall down when they are killed, no blood or dismemberment). It would help with the feelings of being immersed in the world of the game...as disturbing as the notion may be it feels quite satisfying to see the effect of your actions on a "living" enemy...And lastly could we have flying birds as an obstacle/hazard of flight? (this was a big problem at many front line airfields)
My second question is about future development of the "Storm of War" series...Can I look forward to fighting and flying in the skys of the Pacific at some point in the future? As much as I love the European theater I also love the Pacific theater and I would very much like (and I'm not alone here) to have a "Pacific theater" game based on your wonderful new game engine...please,please,please  |
Flocks of migrating geese would be neat! It would allow you to tell what direction you were flying (except for the fact the geese flocks often go in non-migratory directions in the lead up to migration). It would be even neater if we could be the geese!
I believe Oleg once said that they had tested sharks in PF (but I think he was joking)?
Anyway, with regards to the pacific theater I believe Oleg indicated some time ago that it wouldn't happen until some other theaters had been visited (the Eastern Front for his Il-2 fans and probably expanding ETO/MTO). He also said that it might never happen if the U.S. didn't change its trademark laws (or a way wasn't found around them). I hope this helps.
