Indeed! Idiotic posts will increase exponentially as release date draws near. Skimming these last couple of pages brings back some bad feelings from the 10 years I worked at a mental health facility.

I got a stupid question:

Can we have (accelerated) day-night change in those 24/7 online matches?

Ehhmm, like people said before that actually experienced that summer, it was really dry and hot for an English summer and very sunny, so i think everything looks just right.

Go out in the fields after 3 months of dry summer and you'll see it's just like that.

On other thing, when bullets are chasing me, i don't care too much about the landscape...

It's not the graphics that create the ambience, the selections screens are rubbish compared to EAW was what I was getting at. They are rubbish, boring and bland is what they look like ZERO IMMERSION.

I reckon it's going to be like ROF mk II. Basically a beta on release, unfinished though with potential. Rubbish interface and a crap campaign, let alone sound, I predict a spitfire lawn mower not a merlin. Happy to be proved wrong but a fiver says I'm not. I'll buy it none the less but I would expect better than what I believe I'm going to recieve given the lead in time. I so want it to succeed because I love this era, yet I'm underwhelmed.

Wait... what the hell do selection screens have to do with immersion? Unless you're playing a game that simulates ordering from a drive-through restaurant or something, the immersion starts after the selection screen. It's like claiming the cover art on the box ruins immersion.

Immersion is all in the game play, I am yet to find a better game than the original Red Baron for that.
being invited to join other squadrons , challenged for a duel and navigating your self etc.
