Thanks Buggins for sharing. Heat is rising.. What was that video? There was konami screen behind those people.

Oh yeah!, Axis plane with cockpit... :grin:

In the end of the gameplay... ¿all planes flyable? I hope :grin:

Thank you very much Buggins :grin::grin::grin:

Brilliant Buggins! Very interresting walk through the hangar at the end there...
Let's hope they convert it to english asap.

YES!!!!!

Ive sent the link to Tig as she should be able to translate it for me. Trying pausing as the hangar shows as you can make out aircraft in there. As per the pic above, I've seen what I need to see!!!

Good find, this looks great.
Congrats Gilly, I believe it says mk III ?

It certainly does! which means Packard Merlins but i can just about live with that!!!!!...

This game was already high on the priority list but after watching that its straight to number 1!!!!!!!

P-38G was on that list awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeaaaaahhhhhhhh. Plus first person actor with the pilot body visible = wicked.

There was a nice selection of fighters on that list inc the Hurricane if im not mistaken??

Good times ahead in 2012 :cool:

Nice one Buggins thanks for shearing this, getting hyped up now for this one cant wait. Bring it on baby.

mossies,lanc, not sure if griffon spit is there,but a tempest mk5 might help me get over it,is that a gladiator?great post

I see them,bloody marvelous!!

I saw at least 2 hurries in their to :D excellent. A mossie and lanc to? epic!! What a great game this could be, i cannot wait.

And yup...it was a gladiator :)

Great find buggins.


Any idea of a release date?

Excellent.

Really like the selection tree, torp run, Carriers, and cockpits for all!
Christmas just got less exciting.

Loads of great planes there, 3 fourengine bombers, B-24 Liberator, B17 and the Lancaster mk3.
Two flying boats, the PBY catalina and the japanese H6K4....
Get your lifejackets out, I read the word "drowned"......

Really looking forward to play that! :-o

"Slowmo" biplane d-fights, bring it on.. Have to ask Doc Brown that is his DeLorean available.8)

I'm going to be SUCH a P-38 whore. Fair warning.

And a Pencilfish!

Comes out in March according to Play.com

How anoying is that guy that never shut up once in the 14 minutes and why is he trying to look like a Predator?

Thx for the date Pope, and YES what a irritating twat, not possible to rate how anoying that constant nagging was.....

Thanks for sharing Buggins...........;)

Nice list there.....spotted my wish....Tempest V .....not a Typhoon but least the tail wont fall off ...lol:grin:....Hope they replicated the sound of a Sabre..?

Lancaster and Mozz too... Dark night and the drone of those Merlins...Hmmm now that is worth the wait...:cool:


.

WOW! How sweet it is!!! what a stable of planes!!! this has got to be GOOD!

now i can get to work updating the planes section on the BoS site...so far i have it at over 76 ac ( different models of the same ac of course )

Don't get your hopes up just yet guys, not until its in writing from Anton or one of the Devs.I'd hate to see grown men cry.

Maybe just maybe, that screen you saw could be like training mode, and the planes your seeing are enemies that you can select to go against? Yet cannot directly control yourself.

I'm sure i'm wrong because Gaijen know what we want :D

Just saying... Maybe hold back 5 until either we hear from Gaijen or someone can translate what that annoying fucktard was saying.

I'd love to give a Mossie a flight though... what an amazing piece of kit... can hear those merlins now....

And the Pencilfish to hahahaha.Thats gotta be worth a flight eh pope.

some great birds,its going to be great,but just to get it out my system,on the subject of non inclusion of griffon engine spitfire.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF_lJTGKFP0

Here is some comfort for you Dave:

Excellent video/trailer tonnes of info on game, sad there is no spitfire 14, but theres at least going to be a realistic mode arcade mode and a sim mode

I just got back of holiday.. looks good. Is there a list of Aircraft anywhere?

Bobbysocks compiling over on the devs forum (see my sig for link) and I've got Tigyo working on translating the salient points from predator boy on the video.

Cheers Gilly :)

Looking at it I think Tigyo will be hard pressed to find any!

Seriously though, I can't wait to get into the air with the guys from here - the old guard, roll on Spring!

I hope one thing they can change is the way the planes are viewed in the hangar. I didn't care to much for backing out and loading everytime you wanted to look at another plane.

Thats a great find ....... cant wait for this to come out been along time coming :D





Edit - the link wont work for me :(

Holy Toledo! I used to have a job working around a crop duster. We went indoors after fueling. Wind sure got up when that air tractor turned around. I can't imagine standing behind a Griffin V12 even at low RPMs.

Just watched the 14-min video in the OP. Not sure how I feel about having Japanese/Axis missions in the game. Maybe they'll just be in the Japanese release -- being a Konami title and all. Of course it'd be hypocritical of me to complain considering I don't complain about going against American/Allied characters in online FPS like Day of Defeat or Battlefield.

That being said, I'm absolutely thrilled to see the P-38, P-40, P-39 and F4U Corsair in the plane list. Those four pretty well cover me. Now I just hope those planes (and the P-51) fly as well as they should. No flying bricks like the P-51 in BoP (or the P-47 for that matter).

it would be weird to bomb your own nationaility's troops or ships. but actually i think if you wish to unlock the jap, german, and italian planes you should have to play the axis missions to do so. gives you perspective of what it was to face the allies. if you wish to only fly allied planes then you do only those missions to unlock those. we recreate battles now online...where guys take the axis side and bomb the uk. to be able to create games like "protect your carrier and sink the enemy's" from jap and aiiled ships will make for some awesome and epic games. i am looking forward to those more than single play missions anyways.

Hopefully the online aspect of the game is better this time around. The ability to join games would go a long way toward making BoS top notch.

Edit to add: Something I did notice about the video is that a lot of stuff keeps popping up on the screen with every kill. Something I loved about BoP is it didn't have that "Call of Duty factor" where the player has to be choked with achievements after every little action. I'm hoping BoS isn't taking on that over-the-top arcadey look.

Now... about getting the P-80 into the game... ;)

I've had an email from Tigyo today regarding the video.
For the most part predator boy talks about the differences between the modes eg arcade, realistic and sim. He also describes how the campaign section will be a true to history as possible.
What is of note though is the fact that up to 4 people can co-op the campaign which is a nice addition.
Tigyo's also kindly added the following to our growing aircraft list:
Boomerang MkI and MkII and the Wirraway- couple of nice Aussie planes!

You were right Winny, he spends most of the time talking complete bollocks!
