Another interesting thing about this thread, is that Oleg is here every day talking to us, for hours at a time...the game must have progressed quite a bit and afforded him more free time

Christian, you misunderstood it: The Singleplayer will be there, but as a "Multiplayer with only one player".

Example: Look at DCG today: Multiplayer(Dogfight) is based on Offline, so it has certain disadvatages. This is due to IL2 basically being a singleplayer game. In future, playing offline will be like having a Multiplayer-Game with all planes controlled by AI. So, I guess no big differnce for someone who always plays alone.

This is how is SHOULD be, no matter how many times u come to this forum in a day there is allways somethimg new about SoW. Info on game, screenshots....movies. "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" (joking, i know its sometime of before that happens)

Love the new screenshots btw.

P.S The two pics showing the oildrums and truck, can somone confirm its not just somone on the net altering colors in PS or something.

Have you been following the up-date's Oleg has been posting, http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...2040 ...unless someone is impersonating Oleg (and very well) I think we can safely assume that Oleg is posting the "real thing"...

Sry, confused the forums, i was talking about theese: http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...5211050008/p/1 (close to the bottom of the page.)

Quite differant colors i would say. ( grab0105 and grab0112 in Olegs update)

Apparently from a russian site.

Just wondering, not trying to start a conspirecy thread

Gut feeling tells me they are fake, the colors i mean. On the other hand, the russians get to see things before we do

They've been in Photoshop so it certainly looks like they're just edited versions, but it does give a good comparison of what is possible with just hue, saturation and colour settings, let alone all the light parameters and other graphics engine tweaks available to Oleg and co.

Yes it does and i think getting it as close to "right" as possible from the start is very important compared to IL2 as we wont be able (as i understand it) to change those settings on the screen ourselfes the same way we can in IL2, due to dynamic lighting and so on, without messing somethingelse up (making it look wrong)

Not hard to imagine how much work it really is.

I dont think he has free time at all - he is just gentle making it up for the long period of silence.

If you'll notice, it's not an in-game screenshot, but a cropped screenshot of a desktop with BoB running in a window. That's why it went through Photoshop, because the person who took the screenshot didn't exactly want you to read the game code in the other window. The shot wasn't modified in any other way. You're seeing WIP terrain as it progressed since last Friday. Changed lighting, updated shaders, modified terrain textures, different HDR presets, etc.

That's not final either, there's still a lot more of work to be done. But I'm glad you guys like the progress.
