Well, as always the screenshots look better and better every week and i'm convences about BoB graphic long time ago, so i will talk and give some suggestions about the QMB only, and of course considering that is WIP.

Like:

1- Images of aircrafts, with what i beleive flyable aircraft have the human figures to the right bottom of the small image of the aircraft.

2- Fonts of time, weather and cloud altitude settings, even if they are not final.

3- You can save the quick mission for use later on. I assume the mission saved can also be played on multiplayer.

4- Preview images of the mission type on the left.

Dont like:

1- The overall interface, it looks too techie for a ww2 sim, loosing immersion. Probably if the background look more like a sheet of an old flight manual, or something like that, IMHO would look more immersive.
I'm not a graphic designer, just giving an opinion of something that i know is still WIP.

2- The fonts of the "revers" (i beleive that is the word, got it from a translator) at the bottom. Too modern for a ww2 sim. Again, i know its all WIP.

Great update, thanks!

Impressive, a mayor improvement on good old IL2.
Im sure people who are playing old IL2 will be very impressed.
However I can only give real opinion when the game is on my harddrive ready to be played.
Now the pics show great improvent not jawdropping (ground)graphics like farcry2 or crysis2 or whatever but for a flightsim very good.
Can't wait for the games released after BOB , i'm sure Oleg won't settle down and retire after finishing BOB.
I know this can become much much better in future game releases.
but please no console only games, pc rules always.

Oleg wrote the font is not final, I am confident he and the team will come up with a more period typeface.
