Your right, probably about 10 years before its mainstream.

In a previous life as a computer programmer and systems analyst I actually participated in the constructive critical process quite often, and nowhere was it appropriate to denigrate the comments of other people who were involved in the process.

Frankly, accusing people of "blind fanboism" is worth nothing to a constructive critical process.

Cheers!

I love the update, as usual: GOOD work!

Thanks Oleg and Crew...

Where is the third part of screenshots...?

[stukabomber44]

not too shabby, won't lie - I'm still disappointed that we won't be able to play for a while still, I wanna see some 4 or 5 min video, then I'll be more amped up.

For me, this shot is just so awesome:



Man, some colour tunings and everything is really perfect. The prop-animation is so cool. I know I asked this a few weeks back (and a few others agreed with me too) but will we be able to select different-shutter settings for taking screenshots as though we were using different types of cameras? Also, it'd be so awesome to be able to choose how the prop displays in-game, as personally I like seeing the blurred outline of each prop (I know this is unnrealistic )

I'd be interested to know whether the really-high clouds will be worked on too, but obviously this is bottom-of-the pile stuff.

The issue with posting these updates is the knit-picking, and I know I do my fair share. If you take RoF, I only ever saw that game when it was released. I am 100% confident that if RoF saw this much attention pre-release, it would have been slammed so badly on release. What we're seeing here is an excellent marketing scheme by Oleg and co, and ultimately we're all contributing in our own tiny, tiny way to an ultimate-game. Release it at any-time you want. I'll buy it.

The one that did it for me was the 109 retracting its gear on take-off.

The trees and scenery in that could almost have been a photograph.

great shots of the lighting

still needs shrubbery around the buildings

A nice shot posted in 2009:



the trees look quite nice here; although probably no-where near as detailed as those shown recently.

It amazes me how few polygon edges you can see in such a close up screenshot as this:

The English channel may look darker on some days, depending on where your viewpoint is, and from above it can appear even darker:
