Mods or not, there is no way that the current engine will be able to compete with the new one.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is clueless, or a hopeless fanboy of aircraft types that won't be in the initial SOW:BoB release.

The current mods are just OK, and even with the beginnings of a QC program in the mod community that is taking place now, it will be too little, too late, once SOW hits the shelves.

Just my opinion, but I've been around the sim long enough to have a fairly clear picture of what will pan out towards the end of this year.

My only question is, Spitfire or Defiant?

Me too... but you'll find me in a E3.

That would be a life-or-death question then... ;0

I think I'm going to try the Hurricane too.. but nothing gives me more pleasure (speaking about VGs) than downing a Spitfire...

I'm waiting this too:

His Russian front stuff is pretty thorough... fortunately, we're not likely to be short of BoB reading materials.

I had a thought about the new improved "damage Model"...while I think that we can all agree that this feature should add to the immersion of combat. I predict a whole new category of forum arguments where people bitch about the robustness of individual mechanical components under damage...and people looking for credible facts on the issue.

[Example] "The P-51's radiator might have been that delicate, but the oil system would never have broken like that when over heated"...

or

The pilot armor (strong) is too big on the FW190...

Obviously I know these planes will not be in the first "SOW"...but you get my meaning. The increased damage model will bread "half baked" ideas and paranoid theory's...
