Thanks Dano,
Good call! Yes, interesting to see the hats switched around. I wonder what the consensus is so far on the shaft sensing (not movement) feel is? Certainly geared towards modern jets - somehow I think it would detract from the stick movement of WWII fighters. Would be nice to see a long throw stick from between your feet.
Cheers.

They all seem to have head-phones mate ;)
But +1 to your question. I'd love to know how the merlin sounds on start-up.

Have to say I'm a bit disappointed with the Russian youth at the show. Bad flying and even worse camerawork!

Like how the prop cuts out under negative g in the low flying bit over land that ends with a crash...

Freycinet, Luthier once said that (for him) SoW's FM was a complete step-up on Il-2, so much so that he had to re-learn to fly (so to speak). I think the game is reaching new boundaries with regards to realism in the FM department.
But I have to agree, none of the videos seem to show anyone having a go at flying a complete mission.

There is always a simple explanation for anything, you know. :grin:

As people, who attended the fair told, there was a huge crowd on the BoB stand and a line to each computer where BoB was demonstrated. So, basically, no one could spend more then a few minutes in game, because he was pushed by the next guy in the line. Who, obviously, would start the same stuff from the very beginning. Plus, most of the people wanted to try and see as much BoB features as possible, instead of just playing one complete mission, which they would be able to do anyway, at home, when the BoB comes out.

PS Regarding the sounds. You, actually, can hear a faint in game sound in some videos. But again, according to those, who were there, there was so noisy, that people had to shout to each other, even being face to face close.

:lol: Definitely. Just couldn't agree more! But, you know, that's all your fault! Why, oh, why didn't you came there yourself? Then everyone here would see an ace flying, filmed with a pro camera, operated by the pro-camera man. :cool:


:rolleyes:

Just think if we had 10 or 20 of us guys, some HD hand cams and about 2 hours, then we we see some good vids im sure. :grin:

Thanks Dano for putting these up. They must be on invulnerable settings. That Hurricane would have blown up I think.

Oh my! that Hurri flying over those crop-fields has just realised part of my child-hood dream for the perfect flight-sim! :D thankyou Dano for posting that. Oleg and co have made me even more happier. Sheer beauty.

And thankyou, SaQSoN for another informative answer. Cheers ;)


Any input as to whether it will be possible for landings, like the one shown, to disrupt the crop-field?
