Please don't post anything untill I'll finish loading new shots.

Yes yes, the graphics are astounding. But what about the gameplay? We don't need another Rise Of Flight destined to be forgotten.

I wouldn't write-off ROF just yet. ROF was released as a work in progress, and will be improved as time goes on. We will be very lucky if SOW isn't released without a lot of features delayed. I can see both these sims having very long lives with constant updates over the next 10-15 years.

I think peple are panicking way too much. Everything that I've seen that is even close to complete looks amazing, especially going back and looking at all the screens and vids then combining them is quite impressive.

as far as reflections on the gauges, they can bee seen in this vid, and this isn't even in the engine yet. So I'd imagine they will reflect well when hit by direct sunlight.

the look of the forest is very good but generally with forest we only see the crown or the top of the trees , the look is more like cauliflower for exemple , and we have complete trees with all branchs only on one face in the edge of the forest

Currently we see on shots each tree completely.

They'd be out of business within a year if most of the updates weren't paid. That should be clear to everyone.

From what I've got, this will work just like IL-2. If a new title is released, it's paid. If it's just a patch, it's free.

The only difference will be that we won't get any new planes of maps with the updates, but these can be made by other users and etc.

Am I right?
