i thought that looked pretty artificial and Disney-like. in RL it isnt really possible for the pilot to leisurely stand upright on the pilot seat with the canopy open at that airspeed, and for him to then jump several meters straight into the air as if he is superman

and looking at the near finished aircraft now being seen in that game promo video, most of the aircraft in that video also look pretty low detail and ill defined ( compared to what we already have in CoD and the DCS-p51) so much so that the il2 sturmovik's in RoF's BS look actually blurry.

compare that to CoD and DCS where the aircraft are present in such crisp high detailed you can actually count the individual rivets (and some people do ), and you can see the aircraft so realistically modeled that you feel you can reach out to touch them and know the texture and material of each component.



the overall impression from this RoF BS is rather "war thunder" and "Birds of Prey" like, with some new eye candy animations and visual effects added to provide some entertainment

Compare that to what this weeks new 4.3 "team fusion patch" continues to add to CoD (http://theairtacticalassaultgroup.co...ead.php?t=9362), this RoF BS doesnt even come anywhere near the current CoD state for quality or features



and new improved smoke and damage effects



easy choice really, CoD is miles ahead on all fronts, and yes that includes the eastern front
