Good luck with that. I was reading a post by one of the devs at simHQ saying they plan to mostly distribute the sim by d/l, with a very limited and possible regional DVD release. If we're lucky they may do a DVD purchase directly from them as I would also rather have a hard copy myself.

Awesome clip/sequence in the '262!!

The scenery and buildings are quite outstanding - it looks like Berlin - am I correct? - I thought I got a quick glimpse of the Reichstag and the 'Tiergarten flakturm'.

Did you notice the awesome lighting effects/shadows in the cockpit?

I agree, "WOW!"

I'm SOLD! Again

I haven't flown this low over a city in RL but I've watched in-cockpit videos of low level airshow flights and the sensation of being there is SPOT ON!

LOL ! Thats a riot man !

Still though it would be a real shame for the Sim community not to support this game. It is using the Il2 1946 flight models and though its not as hard core as 1946, its right under it by a notch or two.

We need to support any game that comes to our sim commuinity, especially one that has a Dev team that is willing to give their time and energy to make the game the way we want it. These Dev's are trying to do just that.
Wop is a work in progress still and they have stated that if we support them they will do their best to make WOP grow and change to everything we want it to be. I have been a sim fan for 30 yrs and sometimes I see people in our community that are so impatient and picky that I hold them at the top of the list for why our Sim industry is in such bad shape. They pick and gripe about everything instead of supporting a game and doing everything they can to make it become a much needed franchise in the Sim scene. Then inturn I hear these same people gripe about how flight Sims are a dying breed !
It really amazes me.

I hope everyone will support this game by buying it and then I hope they will go to the WOP forums and give their opinions on how the dev's can make WOP better. We can never have to many good sims !

Thanks for your time and consideration , Desode

Haha ... Just goes to show that some people are no account noobs.

Just downloaded the new P40 and I LOVED it. Show some love to this game and it will reward you. I haven't had his much fun since Forgotten Battles.

I just went through this topic and I have to say that I'm suprised by people reaction for BoP. Why don't You Guys just sit and enjoy this extremly beautiful looking game? Instead, you keep saying how unrealistic it looks and how much more realistic SoW will look. Show me the game that gets near this visiual quality and then we'll talk about unrealistic haze and filters. It doesn't make sense at all.

Some of You (especialy those in loop of denial) sounds like regular fanboys. Why can't You just play both games? BoP is in the stores so why not support this tallented devs, they might come back with somethis as pretty and much more "simulation like" in future. Especialy not knowing when we can expect to see SoW.

PS. +1 on every single 13th Hsqn Protos post.
