This has got to be one of the most beautiful shots Oleg's released so far....

Holy flying monkeys Batman! What the world is wrong with this game?! Forget the stupid screenshots of the spit and 109. Look at the screen shot of the cars. Those trucks have different license plate numbers for heavens sake! How am I supposed to see that while I'm firing cannon and machine gun rounds into the side of a truck at 300mph!??!

I honestly can't beleive it. I'm speechless...

It's not for you, the gamer. It's for the movie makers.

The ground objects are still the center of attentions.
Even if they aren't perfect,the details,like the screws and the plates are stunning.
It's almost scary to think how a computer will handle so many detailed objects,terrain,planes and etc..

But is it genetically modified wheat? I couldn't possibly buy a game that contains GM wheat.

We demand to know! Has Oleg researched this in adequate detail?!

I doubt all the nitpick details are there only to please movie makers.. but like he said .. point being this game has some amazing details to it and sometimes the community just goes bananas for nothing.. things that we'll never see anyway.

Hmmm, we're not all movie-makers. I'd sooner see huge bomber formations then trucks with rivets and different number plates or perfect vehicles etc....
but each to his own

I'm sure that only movie makers are thrilled that the number plates vary. Such detail is wasted on an attack pilot. He'll notice the driver (or it's absence), but not the numbers.

OTOH, it's laying the groundwork for player controlled vehicles/ground combat.

Depends where you come from! In the US corn is what we in the UK call Maize. In the UK corn means wheat or even barley.
