Probably understandable seen the time everybody waits for an update and just 24hours after the community got pearl harboured with Birds of Prey. A litle bit of sarcasm in some posts doesn't surprise me. I think folks here had more in mind than the "usual" dev shot of a wip a/c on blue background.

What I can't for the hell figure out is why 1C doesn't do a dev blog. That is standard for so many games today, FS included. Oleg wouldnt even have to do it personally.

The level of detail, as mentioned by others, is astounding.

Take a close look at the AD 4 cockpit shot. Look at the cowling, see those exhaust stacks? All part of the new complex DM?

Look at the panel textures on the F-82 and P(F)-51.

Personally I can't wait.

Great update.

I don't actually see any 'updates' in those pics.They mean nothing.They are nothing a graphic artist could not knock up in a week.A REAL update would be nice (God forbid in game shots or video)

Past experiences is the key phrase here. Early in the Il-2 development he sought active contact with the prospective customers for feedback and support ... and the result were, essentially, completely overblown expectations followed by "sour-grapes" accusations of bias, insinuations of various rather personal kinds and a few more things that surely showed Oleg that this close a contact to the "fans" is impossible. Unless, of course, he wouldn't mind being sent to the nearest rubber cell in a straightjacket around the time of SoW's release. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

"I am astonished valuable time is being wasted on the Anson and Bf 108..."

I must agree with this comment, in spite both of these aircrafts are beautifully modelled.

The 108 took no part in the Battle of Britain, as it was only a liaison plane.
And the Anson, in spite of being beautiful I repeat it, will probably not be flown a lot, either offline and naturally online.

For instance, instead of a Anson, I would have much preferred an Hampden, which was used during BoB and which was also a very pleasant aircraft to fly.

But this is not so important, as long as the game comes before I'm a blind old man

Hell, I'm already 58. I've been waiting for flight sims all my life! Glad technology caught up, but even I'm a little worn on patience waiting for a sim I heard about when I was 54! But watcha gonna do, Blue?
Flyby out

Looking at the new aircraft in the BOB SOW updates I'd say a big message is being sent here:

Post WW2 stuff

The AD, P51, Mig15 = Korea

Korea = Very exciting.

Aircraft were still using guns in Korea at twice the speed of WW2 warbirds.
