Friday 2010-08-27 Dev. update and Discussions

There's alway's a lot of critiscism of little graphical 'faults' when the update comes along.

It's easy to pick faults with a screenshot from any game, WIP or released. Ultimately it's the videos that will really show us what's happening. (Surley there must be something video wise soon?)

Sometimes I think that posting the stills is counterproductive because it gets down to very minor details very quickly as there's so little to see.

I think we've been spoilt with some pictures that show incredible details; I feel, though, that a video would just be awesome to detail some of the great new features. That would be enough to cover a load of updates, which clearly must be a nuisence for the team.

A video every 2 weeks instead of pictures and everybody should be happy.

And a video doesn't need more time to capture.

If you look closely, the guy jumping has even a little "hitler" mustache, LOL. Nice funny detail.

The screenshots look awesome, the radar station, the planes inflight, all very well done.

Common guys...WHAT ABOUT THIS: The pilot's legs do not reach the ruder pedals!
It is killing me!

Or may be the pilot is waiving his legs in to the air intentionally for some rest because of the long cross Chanel flight...

By all accounts the game isn't in Beta yet so a video may be some time coming.

BG don't worry they will fix that or sure ... it's Work In Progress don't forget ... I agree with Winny, I was thinking exactly the same.

I'd be happier seeing a crappy wireframe version of a dogfight with loads going on than a close up of something thats just flat in every sense.. (no matter how good it may be)

If you stare at even the most beautiful persons face for long enough you'll find fault, video would show us the games soul, give a better sense of the overall feel feel of it. What's going on inside.

That short video of the spitfire over the sea has told me more about what SoW is going to be than the screen shots. I've never seen a sim move quite like it.

I'm not hasseling anyone for videos by the way! In your own time!
