Good things I noticed-

• RAF pilot heads now tilted forward, much better.
  
• Damage to the Do17 with crew k.i.a very good
  
• Silly little things like the fantastic detail on tail wheel struts and tyres.
  
• The internal detail through the windows of the Sunderland at the very start.
  
• Love the tracers, fire and smoke.

Not so good -

• Colour of squadron codes on Beaufighter and Gladiator too bright ?
  
• Looks like flying over London not good for FPS!
  
• Italian pilot helmets?
  
• No video of tank Vs tank battle yet, or any land combat.

and....Still waiting for release date info and STEAM pre-order...

There won't be any land battles in the Battle of Britain but that won't stop us from making missions with land battles, because the tools are there. I doubt very much that the developer would have time to make these battles, even though some of their modellers had the time to build the necessary vehicles for later addons.

Yes this point needs to be confirmed below..

Can anyone remember the facts on ground units? can tanks/apc's fire?

They must have a damage model for air attack, i'm sure we had video long time ago of tank turret moving etc..?

and on that point..AAA fire from ships..?

Anyway...time to watch the video one more time before bed.....my wife doesn't understand..... !!!!

It's strange that so close to the release date nobody has ever heard a sound from BoB.

I would be also happy to se a little bit of the french landscapes.

As I recall

The British did make bombing runs on German positions and bases during the BOB.

We have a few bomber aircraft for doing those stunts, along with blowing up some other stuff as well.

I totally agree, but I was refering to his comment about tank battles.
