Thanks Oleg for taking the effort to post.

Finally sharp terrain textures from altitude! Cities and their background look excellent, neat little details like street lamps. For the best looking terrain screenshots so far.

Sorry, quick posts while I was typing.

Forgot to say that it looks very good. Very high scenery density, loving the clouds too.

Thanks.

Towns looking great!

In German language they speaks other. Its a "traslation" of German speech

If you remember In Il-2 Germans ware saying sometime the word Scheise.... but it wasn't traslated directly in English or Russian, or any other language that were supporting later in Il-2

Oleg: Is it possible to land the aircraft in a typical field and then take off again like in IL-2, or are players going to be limited to airstrips and possibly roadways? Do different ground areas allow for different surface types? I remember a pic of a spitfire in a wheat field, but has that changed?

Another thing, that first picture got me thinking, can ordinance blow up due to the aircraft being on fire? Say your bomber is on fire, you do a landing that leaves it intact, can on-board bombs explode if the aircraft continues to burn? Or do all aircraft burn the IL-2 way? (burn->explode)

I really love the lighting and the hints at the advanced (formation level!!!) AI. I can't describe how impressed I am.

Will it be possible to edit AI? Or is that still a complete unknown?

P.S. Will it be possible to add some transparency to the edges of the smaller tree LoDs? This doesn't matter in the current shots, but under some lighting conditions it could make a big difference (keeping them from looking like cut outs with solid edges.

Wow terrain/buildings look awesome Oleg!

I see varying elevations in the terrain, looks a lot better!

Can't wait till next week!

Thanks Oleg! Have a good weekend. =)
