S!
Next week Oleg should post BLANK screenshots and a video with STATIC on it only for like 10 minutes  There are some things that people seem to stick to, clouds and terrain. Again many fail to see the subtle changes in many of the pics..like the correction of lighting etc. I bet terrain or clouds are worked on but not shown yet. Do you remember Oleg mentioning he does not want to show too much as it is WORK IN PROGRESS and due competitors.SoW has been under works a long time, gone through changes and all that. It is close to a release now and Oleg & Team has it covered what to do with their new sim. His comment about people was spot on, but seems the sim community are like that and we still wonder why simulators are a niché and not much produced  Let's just sit back, enjoy the ride and soon fly SoW  Have a nice weekend all!

I don't think Oleg should really post update. I show up every friday for them though (but if I were him I'd have called it quits a while back). I'd say burn the forum to the ground! Leave nothing standing! It seemed different in the old days (before Il-2 was released) - there were other WWII flight-sims in existence. If people were there it was because Il-2 had a novel environment (Great Patriotic War) and because Oleg was responsive and innovative. IMHO, I think a lot of the whining demographic was on the CFS2 and CFS3 forums. Sure, we begged for features (politely) and there was even some groveling - but it wasn't this level of entitled bullshitting. Remember that it was a time period when only TK/EAW really consulted with fans and the Flanker team occasionally commented, but it was rare and a little aloof).

To be fair, Tree might post things that some people disagree with, but he never makes personal attacks on forum members here, which i thought was a banning offence?...though it seems people can post stuff like this...
"you'r a a whiny little bitch Tree, and also a coward" ...and the mods do nothing? Anyway...back to the topic... Myself...i agree with Tree...the landscape when compaired to the fantastic and beautifuly made aircraft and ground models, the landscape looks below par and so far to me, and nothing like England. I made a post on Sim hq here... http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.ph...3100294/2.html Im hoping as Oleg has said that this will improve, im sure it will. But as i see it right now the landscape is the weak link(visually anyway). As others have said when we see DX11 high res videos with AA and AF we can make a better judgment on how the final landscape will look. Last edited by furbs; 10-01-2010 at 07:30 PM.

even in this thread, just scroll back and see exactly what he DOES post, and he does it very deliberately.

Zap, no matter how sarcastic his posts are, they aren't really that bad. I mean, a personal attack was a bit over the top in this case. Just ignore those types of posts. If you don't agree with them, then causing an argument won't lead to anywhere as neither of you will concede.

Some are so much worried about graphics, clouds, terrains etc. *$#@*&%!@#$ the graphics.
 My expectatives are more on SoW engine, damage models, flight models, aircraft management and the simulation features. Graphics could be changed after in some patches or 3rd party. By the way, i am very happy about the graphics i have seen until now. I am more curious about the aircrafts managements, but as seen i ll have to wait.

Look.. It's not finished.
My thoughts on those who simply criticise. I think it's rude and unfair to criticise. You don't own this game, you haven't paid any money for this game and yet you go on and on and on about silly cosmetic things without a single thought to the fact that the cosmetics come last in the list of things to do. The devs don't need someone telling them the terrain looks like it was painted by a child. Cheeky bastards. It's a privelage to see these WIP shots, like oleg says.. he could just as easily create a big flashy movie that bears no relation to the final product. He hasn't, and for that I thank him.

what DOES look good about it is much more interesting, scenery density looks about right (forest cover etc, rather then sparing use of trees with no hedges by roads and fields etc, as seen in some recent low alt shots), the terrain contour of the recent shots also looks good (something we havnt seen much of so far) and what you are missing in all this is that the shots are from a mission in progress with multiple planes in the air and actual combat, its not an art exhibition for scenery paintings. oleg would be much more interested in seeing if the frame rates are decent then to see if the shade of green on the fields is right did you really miss all that ? no you didnt, you actually know it. but instead you post your usual negative crap DELIBERATELY.
