I'm sure there is no difference.

Haha, you haven't seen me in a head on Il-2's have to watch out :p

And, sorry I should have explained - the 360 is the proprietary system used at E3 these days (apart from Sony conferences and exclusives), I was surprised they didn't use the 360!

this jabroonie was not a flight sim or real/arcade air combat player. he was way to green and asking "coached" questions. so i am imagining he was a spokesperson...paid actor..blah, blah. blah. it was a great video and gave us a lot of insight to this game besides the graphics. 1)....it is my impression that the first missions are in the pacific. that is the vids we have been seeing. so do you think the same as me??? 2) like BoP...you unlock planes as you go ( was the question jabroonie boy asked). 4) free flight looked interesting. 5) did you see the mission displayed while the nimnod was babbling (which was more important to us)?? the battle of santa cruz. so here's the story behind that.

I watched that a couple more times though with the sound muted. Great terrain. Flight looks pretty much the same, good options on the free flight mode.

Yeah... good stuff.

Just saw the new vid.

1st off some one plz shoot that guy.

"Ohh, I drowned, maybe it will say I had a heart attack and are there people living in the houses?"

I really don't care for the indicators, way to big.

Planes look sweet though.

Looks great but I'm not seeing any P-38 action here.

For the love of god it better be in there! lol

True she is nice but I hate clueless people reading things like that off a script.

screen grabs from the E3 video showing the aircraft available.... note at the bottom of the first P-39 is shown as well as mention behind of 'battle of britain 1940'







Edit: also look to the screen on the right of the guy in the video it's titled 'battle of Santa cruz'

The video gives away some cool info. Is there to be a camo option?
The different modes sounds cool, and there seem to be some upgrade to the info menues, blackboard with drawings and flags and stuff.

MMO part is to contain airfield raids (new option?) and tournaments, how cool is that ? Has Mac and Edal sold their tourney concept

BoS has already been flown by id_ts like the guy in the vid, let the hardcore fans have some more info on this, please
