Then this video would have been sooo much more jawdropping!

I'm pretty sure the dornier actually looks like that allready, but for some reason Oleg choose to show us something quite less impressing. He is probably building up expectations step by step.

Firstly, the first picture is a screenshot, the second is a capture from a video.
Secondly, on the first picture the sunlight is reflected from the water and from the plane to the camera, so you get the shine. On the second picture the sun is behind the camera, so you can't get a reflection apart from some minor surfaces that happen to be at the right angle.

Anyway, the video is amazing. Dynamic lightning, just wow. Canopy framing casts shadows... incredible.

The still picture of the Bf 110 is 1288 pixels wide. The max resolution of the YouTube video is 480 pixels wide. Guess which one is going to look better, even ignoring the fact that the compression algorithm used to reduce video to a reasonable size is going to result in further loss of detail?

Very nice video! Looks almost photo realistic to me.

Unfortunately, people begin already to fight about minor details.
What will it be like, when the game comes out and FM discussions start to pop up?
The forum will be a battlefield...
