So far Oleg showed us mainly FMB features...the only comment he made about the map was about its size (to Foo'bar); It is true that what is shown is a 2000 content map: who says this map served as a basis for the real 3D landscape?

It would not have been that difficult to assemble this 2000 map with easily found internet data, and maybe this is what MG did at first to have an idea of the size to use, and first placement of airfields (which shows some mistakes consistent with the use of modern maps to begin with, like in Arras)...

In other words, maybe this post was about FMB, using an old placeholder map...Why panic and risk saying something stupid?

Be sure Oleg has towns of precise documentation since a while, on the English as well as the French landscapes! Have faith...

i dont think the team would be that foolish to give themselves so much extra work. lets keep the faith here, the map will be reflective of that time in history im betting

You guys are right. I've been a bit too hasty to judge perhaps. What we see on the zoomed out map doesn't necessarily reflect the 3D world underneath.
I've got so much hope invested in this product that it gets the better of me sometimes.

I'll shut up and wait to see what we get.

A whole new housing estate as been built in my area since Oleg first announced SOW hopefully this will be on the map.

:I don't suppose you could tell us where you live, Tree? I'll gladly remove all the houses Oleg has put on the map: from 3000m, in a He 111...

I think Tree is scared to tell us where he lives.

Oleg,

what about something unstatic for tomorrow's update again?

[Richie]

I hope for some engine sounds soon.

Oleg,

I just read that soon coming Ati 6970 will have 2 GB VRAM.
The Nvidia GTX 580 has 1,5 GB but is a little bit faster.
What will be better for BoB? More VRAM or higher GPU Clock?
