I'd like to dispute that. You're a legend. Thanks a lot!

From the looks of things, you will get it. And it will be PS3 exclusive.

Head tracking was announced as part of Project Natal, so 360 users will be able to have this feature when BoP's sequel launches, and it is unlikely that head tracking will be implemented into BoP itself, so the probability is that PS3 users will also have to wait for the sequel to get head tracking.

I thought he was talking about WoP and/or the sequal to BoP.

Very kind words indeed & to that; many thanks. I'm real glad like-minded ppl such as ur good self can enjoy them. From what I'm hearing though, it sounds as if WoP, although beautiful in looks & playability; is framerate friendly to most machines. On the other hand, there is no reason at all that the devs can't bring BoP up to speed. The replay editor is nothing fancy, complex engine management could be added now there is keyboard & mouse support for PS3, & all the extra cockpits, LaGG 3, Yak 7 & P-40E simply HAS to make it as DLC.

Thanks again.

I just tried the demo myself and boy what a difference from the 360 version
First i could use my old trusty logitech force 3D Pro joystick (i know, its not the best out there but it does its job). Now compare that joy from the xbox av8tor its huge difference there already. No goddam deadzone, smooth in controls, easy to finetune aim. Loads of buttons you can config as you want and so on

I played on my pc-screen and on 1680X1050 res. and all the settings maxed out. The demo limits some settings (only the full game have all settings) and still the game run smooth as silk
And boy it looked good. Gonna try it on my 37" lcd tv-screen later and see how it works there.

Too bad the 360 version didnt quite work out as good as it does on pc though, perhaps its not fair to compare the two formats but i cant help to feel the pc is ways moore better.

Once i had the freetrack ( http://www.free-track.net/english/ ) similar to trakir5.0 and was flying in 1946 and it was really fun, feeling realistic as it can be apart from the real thing.

Im thinking of buying wop if the patch to bop dont work out so well as i hope.
To bad we cant have any better joys to 360. Now when i have tryed my old log. 3d force pro again its really hard to load up the crappy av8tor again.

Edit: does anyone now how the online system works on wop yet? Is it released in public so we can go out and play online?

The online is up , its the same hosting system and it has some problems. We are all Hounding the DEV's for a Dedicated server system and if they can give us that ! Well WOP sales will double really quick. Hosting systems are just junk, they always have been and always will be just that.

PS thought you guys might find this interesting :

This video, like all my previous, was made entirely from within the Training mode.


I have a video request: Battle of Britain (film) type thing. Just use a hurricane and shoot some stuff down
Thanks!
