I'm tired of saying "wow". But WOW!

I shall don my flame suit:
The details some people are talking about just won't be noticed by the vast majority of players unless they are watching a replay or studying aircraft/aircrews in non-combat situations.

That's all very well and good but in combat, which is what I am hoping SoW excels at, there is no way I am going to notice a pilot's feet, his mustache, where he is looking, or his hand position. Am I really going to notice the level of hedge detail while following a Spit through a Split S?

As someone else said, I hope the same level of attention to detail has been put into the flight modeling, optimized frame rates, and actual game play. I would seriously hate to think that the release of SoW is being delayed even a week to "fix" such minor graphics details.

A gorgeous game with obvious functionality flaws would be like a beautiful woman with a low IQ....good for a weekend but not for a long term relationship .

I have confidence the game play will be awesome, I just can't believe delays to fix such minor, largely irrelevant details are really warranted. (and I hope that's not the case).

The screenies are stunning and I think it's hilarious that the aircrews all look like Hitler lol. If it was intentional, good on ya!
