the fires in the BoB aircraft looks very good imho so far from what oleg has posted, and is very close to the real thing (as we have seen from posters here providing real life video and photographs as a comparison).

to have one newbie retard post in a thread here "this sux" is absolutely meaningless. not only does it show bad manner and low emotional intelligence, but it shows a complete lack of understanding of what real life fires look like in real historical events, and there is no shred of evidence provided to make some kind of counter argument

the real question is going to be about the degree these fires (and smoke) will vary in BoB depending on what parts on the aircraft are damaged, and how long the fires will last, and if the fires and damage spreads etc.. so we get some variation in small fires and big fires, mixed with variations of smoke effect, and maybe some aircraft exploding mid air when bomb stores or fuel containers are affected by fire. from other snippets oleg has provided in the past, he is taking account of that to some degree, so fires in aircraft in general look very good to me so far.

i agree with some of the other earlier posters in this thread, constantly over criticizing on minor aspects can become self defeating if we (as the fanbase) dont keep a sense of perspective and context, since oleg is currently focused on getting the project finished (and significant further delays could potentially put the whole project at risk). the most important thing is that the core subcomponents of the project are included, like dynamic campaign engine, flight models, new gfx engine with scalable high quality visual effect (which can be improved over time) etc..
