@ Feuerfalke

Only criticism from you ...... but you have yet to show me something MORE realistic.

Show me a more realistic scenery in a WWII combat sim ...... problem for you is you can't. Until you can - WoP is the best Graphically. Is it perfect? Nothing is perfect ...... its merely closest to perfection so far.

So please do yourself and everyone else a favor and go through the 7 stages of Grief.

1. Shock/Denial
2. Pain/Guilt
3. Anger and Bargaining
4. Depression, Reflection, Loneliness
5 Upward Turn
6. Reconstruction/Working Through
7. Acceptance and Hope

Just ACCEPT.Accept.Accept..Accept...

I agree Proto...WOP has the best graphics I've seen in combat flight sim, and there is alot of room for improvement.

I believe SOW graphics will be better, BUT nothing says that Gaijin won't be improving WOP graphics for the next year while were waiting for SOW. Gaijin has released 8 updates for WOP in the last two weeks, and have a considerable work force.

dont know why people are at such odds with BoB vs WoP, Wings will be out within a month or so? while BoP has at least another year - if you can only afford 1 game every two years I suggest you stop playing games and get a job.

BoB is a whole new engine while WoP is breathing new life into the IL-2 engine.

All you flight simmer's can do is complain that it's too cinematic? Your elitism is shooting your favorite genre in the foot, you should be enjoying and promoting WoP while waiting for BoB and knowing that by promoting the il2 brand you are also promoting SoW/BoB.

So Oleg wasn't directly involved in WoP...so what? Boo Hoo fanboys, all Oleg needs to do it make an engine that tops his last one then make sure the noobs know he's the man responsible for Il2 in the first place - everybody wins

Bingo !!

This game is being DEVELOPED Hard !

I really hope SoW graphics are better - I mean truly. Just not seen anything in 6 years to indicate such.

Still I try to keep hope, cause I like the Ruskie

Are the graphics in "Wings of Prey" unrealistic? Sure.

Are they more realistic than any other sim I've ever seen? Definitely, and I've logged a lot of IL2, Flaming Cliffs, DCS and FSX hours. A lot of the settings can be adjusted to tone down the "overdone" effects. Don't knock it until you've tried it guys.

This whole conversation is so stupid, it just pained me to read. It is a really, really good looking game. If I could have a game right now that took the complexities and feature set of IL2 and the visuals of Wings of Prey, I'd probably pay a couple hundred dollars for it (don't get any ideas oleg! ). It's that much of an upgrade over the visuals in my beloved IL2.

Unfortunately, as good as it looks, it's not much of a sim right now, it's a very beautiful game with a few sim qualities.

Well said...People are so hung up about the dingy effects, they are not seeing the forrest for the trees... If SOW looks as good all will be well... It may not at the start but I'm confident it will based on the early look of IL-2 vs what it looks like now...
