What I especially liked was that 'your' eye followed the gun and gunsight along the barrel..I have never seen this in a sim before..I hope it will be that way, and isn't just my imagination.
Usually you just see the gun from a rear position, not aligned with the sights.

Non procedural bail

















You'd want strong arms and a lot of faith, trying to pull this off

I'll be waiting for the wet top shot...how do you get that chic in the plane, does she run across a field and jump in?

That smoke really looks aweful. At first I thought they had nailed it, but look how thick it is! It's like WoP. I've never seen anything like this in any guncam videos for an extended period of time like this. Hopefully it's still very much WIP.
I think the gunsmoke is overdone as well too.

We haven't seen gunsmoke before so I guess the effects are still WIP.
Even if they weren't.. We can mod sow better as BOP right? changing the effects a little bit isn't that difficult if you can find the right files.

Sadly not...unless the game is openly moddable, one would have to hack the game to do this.


I'm sure it will be tweaked though. I hope so anyway.

I thought sow would be openly moddable. I think it's a good idea to make it modable, in il2 we didn't get cheaters and we have got a lot of great mods !

The game is moddable (in some areas at least - GUI, objects, small terrains - the situation is constantly changing. I would be surprised if some effect tweaking wasn't possible)

So you think you know better then Oleg and Ilya, five years of development and they are all wrong and it all looks like crap??

He doesn't even know how to spell "awful". Just ignore him.
