World of Planes Alpha movies

[Robotic Pope]

As you may know, World of Planes on the PC is the twin sister title to Birds of Steel on 360/PS3. The Alpha testers have been playing World of Planes for a while now and some movies are starting to appear from the film makers.
These two by DEDA are excellent and give a great preview of gameplay in simulation mode and how our replays will look in both games. Enjoy

Damn that look real good. But is it a sim or an arcade game?

Same as Birds of Prey, Arcade, Realistic and sim modes. These movies are in sim mode. Although I believe you will now be able to customise them, like say enabling 3rd person in sim mode or turning targets off in arcade mode.

IMHO looks like where il2 1946 could have been in 2010 if 1C took an easier development path! If you love il2 1946 you will love World of Planes, except if you have played the flawed genius that currently is CLoD. The range of options (planes, scenarios) obviously present in WOP does not make up for the quality and vision of CLoD, albeit an ongoing work.

Interesting to see what players think on its eventual release and what the hardware specs are going to be, would guess it will not be as demanding as CLoD. Maybe somewhere for 46ers to go until they get the cash for a serious hardware upgrade.

Just my first impressions!

i think you are catching a glimpse of BoS in these videos as well. it may not be as intricate or complex in the controls or other things. but some of the flight models, damage effects, tracers, etc., i am going to imagine are close to being inline.

Nice hype Pope. Thanks
