The good news for those of us who have waited to upgrade is that the new Sandybridge procs are the baddest CPUs in the land, and the top of the line (the 2600k) is only just over $300. The bad news is they're still hard to get. I'm going to try to wait for the 6 or 8 core versions, if my machine will run COD satisfactorily. Good things come to those who wait.

No collision model with trees?! Not even a single, skinny little collision box in the middle where the trunk is? That's dissapointing.

I think some trees are just "sprites".They have no mass.Some trees are "objects" and if you hit them you will know it.

It could also be a dm setting or the pilot is set to the invincible toggle.

Easiest setting for the show.After all you could see all the "we are here" arrows.

A tree doesn't need to have mass to have a collision box at its center. Even if they were just 2D sprites they could easily have a region in the middle that causes damage when you pass through it. I'm just hoping that we get something a little better than in IL-2, where we had 2 types of trees:

1.) the common intangible type that you could fly straight through
2.) the less common trees in and near towns, which caused you to detonate when flying close to them

What we need is to have some Deltawood trees with collision boxes sprinkled around in all the forests.

Then you would be flying low whipping through the trees thinking you have got it made.And them BOOM.You hit a Deltawood tree and explode.

I'm sure Oleg said that tree collisions were turned off at the IgroMir show.

Look at the difficulty setting screens,it looks like everything was turned off,so people could fly the planes around easily.
I would guess a lot of us will install the game,turn every difficulty setting on,and then wonder why we can't even get off the ground without turning into a burning wreck.
The thought that all this is only a few weeks away makes me feel like a little kid again,waiting for Christmas!

I really hope COD will be a used by ex. Anandtech when they review new hardware, then we will see when the pros using latest high-end hardware to benchmark.
