I have no idea why we aren't seeing more terrain shots other than for whatever reason(s)Oleg isn't ready to post them.

Its not ready?
He's not happy with the look of the terrain yet?
competition?

I thought we would be seeing terrain shots last summer. Anyway I prefer to be optimistic rather than pessimistic. Hopefully Oleg will also be optimistic and have the resources to keep working on SOW until he feels its ready for release.

Two smiley faces, what do you think that means?

I have never been disappointed with any graphic elements or graphic additions to the IL2 from Oleg.

Oleg has played his hand close to his chest, and no one knows what he is holding.

I'm not sure what the two smilie faces means:

The idea is a total joke?
Or there is some truth too it? I know Oleg had some employee issues, and many of the items in WOP were very very similiar to IL-2 and I'm not talking about the FM etc that Oleg gave to the Gaijin developers.

Your reading a tremendous amount into a couple of smileys .....

You may not have been disappointed with any of the graphics you have seen for S.o.W but that is not the prevailing opinion in the larger community ..... one which Oleg has 'noted' and decided to work on personally.

Far as I am concerned we were going to get served a steaming pile of poop for graphics till W.o.P came along and opened some (his) eyes.

Nothing so far that can be termed " HD Cinematic " graphics ..... and I am getting more than a little tired of washed out over weathered pits. Front line fighters in the Battle of Britain did not have a combat lifespan long enough to 'weather' like that..... but apparently Luthier does not find 'new' pits 'interesting' ..... so much for 'realism' when it doesn't suit us eh ?

Protos: Since when your opinion has anything to do with what the "larger community" thinks? And who appointed you as a spokesperson?

I, quite frankly, don't see what the issue is. Are your lifes so awful that you need to make a computer game its center? Are you guys in some kind of midlife crisis? Or what is the reason behind all that doom&gloom here? Sheesh!

Well, I am 40, slightly overweight, thin in the hair... mid life crisis is absoulutely a possibility.
But, frankly I'm quite optimistic about this game. Maybe except for the release date.
