Default Very Cool, Nerd Moment!

Flying over London for the first time ever in real life en route to Budapest.

Take a look from the plane.




and now I tried to find that exact spot in the game!!!



Notice the river and the ship ports!

Very sweet. Love it, great job Oleg and Luthier!

It's a camera on the phone, it's not meant to take glamorous pics. Best I can do at the time , this is why i dont usually share stuff like this with the community.. just a bunch of flamers.

*check left and right and jumps out from cover*

Hey, just in case you thought I was flaming I'm not.

You'd be amazed what an innocent thread like the one you just posted could become. It would be a 148 page flamewar about colorblindness and various photos and screenshots of everybodys personal favourite spot in england in various weather conditions all claiming their version is best.

On the topic and a more serious note, the thames and surroundings look super-accurate geographically and to correct scale.

Now I'm seriously out of here.... I really ment it when I said this is bait for all kinds of colourful and colourless beings :p

*dives back into the foxhole*
