"New" Trailer

[furbs]

anyone else really dissapointed with the marketing so far?

I can hardly face looking at the front page of the website, who ever is in charge of the that needs to read up on the Battle of Britain.

A defiant being chased low level over the sea by some JU88s?

Trailers having Vbs and G6s

somebody needs to get a grip of this.

Actually that's a sea level view of the chalk cliffs on the South coast of England. The trees at the bottom of the cliffs shouldn't be there and that info has been given to the dev team since some while.

Definitely.Having Oleg already confirmed the stated release date, its about time the marketing team did something to promote the game,So far we got a trailer made with work in progress content and few articles in english.Even though that russian trailer has some odd things,it has better scenes than the english version to be fair.I really dont know what are they waiting for.

Guys, marketing costs money, something that MG probably has little left of and that UBI simply isn't going to spend on a niche market product. Face it, marketing will be our job, just like it was with IL2. I think we did a good job.

They have done a better job promoting the game in Russia giving info,game events, posting videos and pictures that we have never seen before.Wouldnt it be fair that the other half of the world got at least a similar treatment?

I cant help but notice that no one has seen anything of London in all the scrrenshots and video, must be a no fly zone due to the bad FPS.

I think I have to agree with Tree here (gulp.) Nothing would be more dramatic than seeing some 109s or a HUGE formation of bombers flying over someof London's icons with flak going off everywhere. That would be cool.

Since we haven't seen anything like that yet there must be some sort of reason...hopefully once the game goes gold and is more optimized we will see some videos surface of these situations. Let's remember that these videos were probably taken months ago on previous builds of the sim. (I hope)

I guess we will all find out for ourselves in about 3 weeks! Can't wait.

On the 109 You Tube video, that was released by the beta tester, showed the trees were gone. I didn't see them either. though they are on the new You Tube clip.
