You mean "birds of looking like other games released after 2006"? Sorry, but the emperors clothes are really quite thin even though the poly count of his crown is high... Yeah a bit drunk Friday night as it is here in the olde world

Oleg, thank you for the glimpse into the "bones" of the game. The most important picture posted, IMHO, is the QMB interface. The way it looks makes it apparent that a lot of thought has gone into the structure of the game and not just the graphics. VERY promising.

Of course, the other pics are outstanding too. Can't wait!

Does anyone know if the buildings will have multiple damage models. I remember waaaay back in the early dev screens, there was a screen of a building with 3 different levels of damage w/debris around it as it fell.

This was not an animation but different models. I would want to imagine the CPU power you would need to animate falling buildings.

The interface looks too modern...it is not immersive this way. I´d try something like a map background or rof style hangar or even some plain light brown colour.

Else wery nice update

Too many brilliant elements in each picture to comment on them all- the smoke details in the 2nd shot are worth a whole thread on their own!
The shadow of the stuka is inspiring, i can easily see the shadow of the crew! The potential of this game engine to create movies is almost overwhelming.
The only thing missing is people (except the pilots)- the shots look a little sterile without them.
Will the vehicles have soldiers/crew in them, or will the restrictions on 'gore' mean it will be too risky for game classification?

Doesn't keep other games like DCS: BS from having crewmen show in vehicles.

Interface looks fine to me, love it...
A computerscreen itself is also not immersive the way it looks...
The way the interface looks now is no nonsense; just love it!
Maybe they could make it customizable as for the plain color but if it comes
with black only I'm a happy guy...

THX Oleg and crew for the update

[janpitor]

The possibility for customization like in win 7 is a good point. I somehow need to feel the history from the sim.
