Graphics in engine is scalable from space to the ground and looks everywhere perfect... probably no one engine can performs these conditions for that day. And we should remember that it is flight sim, but not the other genre game!


Aircarft, ground units - you can't see more precise in any other game now and probably in future. You may see with more polygons and more greater size of textures.... and thinking then it looks better, but it will be wrong opinion....because all these models are not precise.... and mimics real just in some part... I don't count other things that NOBODY MODELING....or doing it wrong or replacing by wrong methods advertithing then that it is right and user then thinking the same, if he isn't experienced in real laws of physics, etc...


Also, from the beginning the first sim is a base for the following series
with additions of new features... using experience of own IL-2 and others , including suggestions of players, real pilots from around the world...


In Flight sims Il-2 is still world standard for the combat flight sims. Standard with engine which is in modification even now.
Standards of Il-2 we may see in many-many other new games that wer coming more later. Ideas that were in Il-2 now using a lot of developers....

Still Il-2 offers so much that no one can offer really for these that love WWII aaviation.
And repeat it for others would be really too hard if really possible.


Still all new developers try to compare own producs with Il-2.... and then anyway users in most cases come back to Il-2....


I try to keep silence about what we will offer with the release and then after.... Becasue our ideas, my personal ideas a lot of others simply copying.... Even some time copy my speeches with users.... however I'm speaking to users on the same level and never tell that I'm (or we) a star(s)....

We simply doing our work.

Ilya, as american, can traslate my thoughs better...
I'm in vacation.
You are all doing a terrific job, Oleg.
I know I'm not the only one that thinks that Storm of War will put to shame every other air combat simulator out there, just like IL2 did back in its day (it's still the best thing out there in my humble opinion).

Enjoy your vacations and keep up the good work!

Oleg and Luthier, thanks for the updates and the comments, despite you being both on travel. It's much appreciated. It all looks and sounds great -- I am sure SoW BoB will be a combat sim masterpiece.

S!

Thanks for the update. Read thru the thread and it cleared up some things. Lot of WIP there but also if you look closer, a LOT more is there to be discovered. Enjoy the vacation Oleg and waiting for the next week's update

Abbeville Boy. You should keep that comment to yourself. Potenz and others have made excellent work on improving IL-2 effects and those new ones are far better than originals, period. Without Team Daidalos/Oleg IL2 would be dead as it has not offered anything new in years..Now it still does with official updates. Have a nice weekend.

Why? Should they? Did they? What kind of damage? Do you have proof?

Other than possible take a chip out of a wood prop, I can only think of jammed cowl flaps, or maybe reduce cooling(because they block the radiator).




A *ping* sound when they hit your aircraft would be quite cool though.

I doubt that.


They have a very low mass.

The chance that they have an effect in real life are so minimal, that I doubt they have modeled it in a simulation.

S!

Swiss, hitting a shell case at speeds above 300km/h can make more damage than just a ping If you drive a car at 80km/h and a small piece of rock hits your window or paint job there is usually some damage. And we talk about smaller pieces and less speed. So I would figure flying through a cloud of shell casings is not very desireable. But again modeling this..hmm..not adding anything to the sim.

but when a whole load of shell castings hits the prop i think that has a huge effect on it.

If the cases are from your wingman, the have pretty much the same, if you hit your enemy's during a head on - well...

Don't know.
If they indeed caused damage there would be reports about it.
Are there?

Stop thinking and bring proof, otherwise STFU.

BTW: "Castings" would really cause some bad ass damage, lol.
