How lovely.

And hopefully a pub nearby for some fine English bitter, that I miss so much.

Quickly followed by an English speed trap, £60 fine and 3 points on your license!!

Who says I'd be speeding?

I give my 50 year old Triumph a lot of respect for her age.

Unless of course some pesky little MG decides to get frisky with me, then I let the Weber carbs do the talking.

I hate to admit but I´m a moron.
So, I will start to look for one of those Radeon 5970 babies.
The drivers are stable too?

Not a moron, just didn't know. Nothing against that. I don't know how stable the new cats are as I'm still using 9.3 and have no need to install any newer one. Heard its a mixed bag so far. I'd wait until we get closer to the release date and save yourself some money unless you are without a decent usable card at the moment.

I think ATI 5970 will be the best choice for upgrade at the time of the SOW release , because of It´s crossfire configuration.
Fermi is too power hungry and very loud too, and in SLI we will need a in house power plant to juice it.
I´m already planning my next upgrade , but waiting until the last moment to do it...

God, if we waited for them to fill-in and position all that detail, for the whole map and in every town...we could be waiting forever for this sim to be done... ;0

This is kind of a small observation, but I like how the ground objects are placed in the map "on a plane", and not tilted, at angle, on the hill side (looking very awkward and wrong)...

[Richie]

Didn't he say in the interview that all of the ground objects are done for this arena and the next one too.....I pretty sure he did.

And I say again ..It's not a WWII Tree Sim

Like Richie pointed out, ease on the ground requirements it's a flight sim.

It is a game set in Britain. There will be little point in releasing a Med' sequel if all countries look the same. It should obviously look like England.
It doesn't yet.
And it is a good idea to let Oleg know that; just in case he can't see it. Or should we wait with that until after release?
