Hotseat jumping.. that is for the recording only right? In eaw it was possible to jump into an ai and take it over after you jumped or got shot. It kept you in the action and spared the long climb back. If it's in for the fight...i hope it's switchable on realism level base.

If you can jump into and take control of another AI aircraft - It will be a big hit with newcomers who don't have to exit a game just because they get killed.

This was supposed to be a feature in Jane's WWII fighters according to the manual, but I never got it to work.
I think it's a very good idea.
If you get shot down trying to help a wingman then you can take his place and try to get out of 'his' trouble. On the negative side it might encourage self-sacrifice for the above reason. You will never 'die'.
I'm sure it will be user controlled, it's bound to be.

I guess the Hyperlobby will service Storm Of War almost right away right?

Oleg, are you able to give any insight into the scoring system planned for SoW? Are you intending to do the same as IL2 or something more complex, or even customisable?

As you know, basically IL2 scores 100 points per engine provided you RTB, otherwise 10% in event of death and higher % according to bailout/ditch position. The problem is that this is not a pleasant system for many reasons which I could bore you to death with and it makes life difficult when trying to replicate 'real life' battles in squadron matches (www.uslglobal.com). I wondered if you are able to concede some information to us in advance.

Many thanks

I don't think SoW will need Hyperlobby anymore.

I hear you...We have a "PC" pro consultant for the office, and by his standards,
NVIDIA's latest videocards power consumption is outrageous...For equal performances as ATI... Actually, I personnaly have had 2 NIVIDIA cards completely burned out while playing at standard settings. Also, probably since AMD and ATI got "togheter", the graphic quality just got to par with NVIDIA...Sometimes better...

ANd in the end, it is allways witch company will do the best drivers for such and such game...
SO if you are eco-friendly, ATI is the way to go....

Depending on the game... ATI could come out with a better driver than NVIDIA for SOW ...Who's to tell ? Would you then buy NVIDIA ?

Again my english translation may be deficient....hum...

If you compare overall graphic performances between those 2 companies , they are almost identical...So ATI is a bettrer choice regarding power consumption, (and reliability ) for someone who plays different games ...

Salute !

I'd rather have the videocard with the best picture ingame and that is defenately ATI! Furthermore, the new series of cards announced will be faster then what nvidia has in stores.

It always has been a leapfrog game between nvidia and ati of who has the fastest card at a certain time. In the end, it's only a few frames between them.

Nice update oleg and team! Really like the sound ingame...

I am drooling!

Looking at the screenshots, there's hardly anything to moan about, the detail of the buildings is more then adequate for a flightsim.
I'd rather have correct aviation then a superb building on the ground, we just bomb them anyway,lol.
