Is the smoke some sort of defensive measure from units on the ground? I know in tactical ground combat andover industral areas it was common place, but against tactical air attacks I have no clue. I hope so, make the AI seem a bit less like AI and more like a real enemy trying to save their own life!

If you are referring to the smoke in pic 5 then Oleg said in the very first post that it was from a locomotive exploding. Otherwise I have no idea where you are getting that info/assumption from other than a illiteracy/inability to comprehend images.

It's the steam from an exploding locomotive. Seen some gun-camera shots of this happening in real-life and it's quite a display when it happens. Looks like they've modelled it pretty well.

Also, the effects for MG and cannon fire hitting the ground look very good....and the smoke from the burning plane in pic 3 seems much more dispersed and real looking than before.

Seems they've been tuning the effects.

I think the chute is still being worked on. At the end of the video when Ilya is about to open the chute, he suddenly realizes its not ready to show yet and makes this 'cut' gesture.

As far as i can tell: One Great Simulation Game is coming our way!

I'm very excited about CoD. Also because the picture of the Spit with the matte paint reminds me so much of the large (can't remember the scale) Airfix model i put together some 40 years ago with the same matte paint and colours.

Cant find the short clip of the bailed out crewman touching ground that was shown months ago.

Not a bail out but still.

I think you're wrong, we saw working chutes in Igromir videos such as this one:

So good to have expert members of long standing explaining things to us.

A bit rude, for all you know there may be issues, not sure what length of member, I mean, membership has to do with it
