No you got it wrong. This is official 1C stuff. look at the video.

I looked at the vid for the third time....still jaw dropped...

Ok I looked at every detail. My analysis:

--> Planes, landscape, houses, water (and maybe clouds) are all BoB. Also some external damage modelling you can see on the planes.
--> Effects, traces etc are not BoB....I think they have been done specially for the console game...
--> speed of planes and all more serious aspects that go to simulation are defenitly not BoB

But there is SOME BoB stuff there for sure...the more I look at it the more I am convinced there is...


I think Oleg made a smart (and maybe necessary) deal. He is bringing cashflow to the company. He is covering the console market with his work, and, secundo, it could attract some of the console gamers to buy and play the REAL thing on PC later...not dumb at all! I am convinced that Olegs real baby is the PC BoB...but why not covering the console market with something awesome you have already created ?

Wow.. What a great looking game.. I also see the resemblens between early SOW:BOB and this game. Could it be a modified IL-2 engine with SOW:BOB planes and terrain textures??

Hopefully SOW:BOB will have the same rolling hills and large towns.. Looks awesome.. Got to get my self a console

Edit: Nike-it has made it clear that the game is not related to SOW:BOB, but it still looks fantastic

"This game is not related with BOB. Official information will be presented later in separate thread!"

But many of the stuff looks very similar ?? You just have to see some of the vids that where on the 1946 DVD....including some landscape shots...

This is confusing --

Knowing 1c's trackrecord with sticking to any deadline for information now matter how vague that is that probably means never.

Video looks great, self shading on the aircraft, reflection mapping and I believe even some bumpmapping. If this isn't the BoB engine then what engine is it? The terrain looks good, I fly over southern england a couple of time each summer and it looks spot on.

Hey ! Where's my 110 ?

It seems like we finally have news about Bob... Given the clouds, the water and the ground.... And the smoke doesn't look bad at all either.... I think we have the reason why the game was a bit delayed. But it's a smart move to try to sell flight sims on console. Far more players can be aimed.

The best would be then to be able to play against Console players on merged PC/Console servers (hehe, just saying that it would be really easy to outfly a 12 yo flying with his game controller..... ).

Time will tell, as usual ....
