this has already has been extensively discussed in another thread here recently, and there are a number of specific reasons why that generalization i made there indeed likely to be correct

you persistently seem incapable to process normal logical information in a rational manner. "indications" of release time are based on oleg's stated intent at the beginning of this year on meeting the BoB anniversary date, the financial pressure the company is under to release without additional delays, and that the last 9 months of weekly screenshots and video's show the project coming together nicely (with a few glitches, which is to be expected for a project as complex as this)

most points there are largely irrelevant, try and use some critical thought based on known facts instead

irrelevant?? if you review all the updates over the last 12 months the ONLY thing i can see thats almost finished is the plane models and some of them still need more work(weathering on most of the types)

When we start seeing finished screens of updates(everything on screen is not WIP or placeholders) in DX11 then we can guess we are maybe a few months away from release.

I would love you to be right...im looking forward to SOW just as much as anyone.

Must of had a brain fart when i started this thread and not list the graphics card. As you can see I edited now with it listed.
Someone said to wait untill SOW releases, then upgrade computer, but seeing how old computer went up in smoke, that is not a option.

New computer specs are............Window 7

Radeon ATI HD5770 1 gig card

Intel Core i7-920 2.66GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Desktop Processor

OCZ Gold 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000 (PC3 16000) Low Voltage Desktop Memory

ASUS Rampage II GENE Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 750GB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

nice gfx card in the "bang per buck" category, but for the new high end cpu you have the gfx card will be a bottle neck in more demanding games. i bought the same card here recently when my own pc went belly up a few months ago, but i have it paired with a much lower spec'ed midrange intel i3 cpu at the moment.

if you already spent your money, dont fret and just wait for BoB's release. at that point i suspect you will need to get a better gfx card if you are using a HD monitor and want the eye candy turned up

HD5770?

This card get's its butt whooped by the end of production GTX260.

It ok however, when you consider you'll need a new one for SOW anyway.

More than 10 planes in the sky at one time.

You can remove that one from the list. There is one screenshot showing I think 21 aircraft. It is of 109's and bombers being attacked.
