New Trailer...IGN 360 Front Page

[Lord-Tuinboy]

Looks so awesome, I so wish this would be released in my holiday (ah a man can dream). The graphics looks so good and I really like the sound too !

Since I'm a new comer to Il-Sturmovik I was wondering what's the campaign like ? And do you think the console version will have say a free flight mode ? Where I can just fly about and have fun without having to worry about getting shot down ?

Release Date: December 31, 2009

I hope that's a lie

There is no official release date yet, don't worry.

So i've watched the video like 10 times now, here are some highlights:

0:21 - twin engine bomber (111? Blenheim?) spinning out of control, awesomely

0:26 - full squadron of Spitfires filling the screen.... 16+ planes

0:30 - taste of the ground effects...Mustang .50 rounds pepper the snow

0:35 - the shipyard screenshot in action....strafeable? sinkable? awesomeable.

0:40 - incredible photo-realistic ground detail + lowlevel bomb smoke haze = nuts

0:58 - furball chaos

1:14 - inverted Gs, 109 smoking spinout...love that flight model WOW.

- no less than four types of 109s, three types of Spits

Look at 1:10 and tell me what the light green cloud is. It is in the screen for a few seconds it's huge.

It must be clouds backlit by the ground.

The dynamic lighting is awesome. It is going to be so fun tearing all ya'lls planes to shit

You missed one thing Crab, No Swastika on German tails. They seem to know something about marketing after all. Saw some odd squadron markings on the tails of some of the German planes. If decided not to show the Swastika, which is arguable, better show nothing at all. They are probably not allowed to sell the game in countries like Germany, France when they show the Swastika.

I read somewhere that it is illegal to display a swastika in some countries. Even in a videogame. Maybe it was on this site on the older IL-2 forum. Perhaps it was the Ubisoft IL-2 forum.

Nike-it (a forum admin here), said it is illegal for swastikas to be in video games(or anything at all) in Europe and that the screenshot with the swastika on the tail of the Stuka was posted by accident. However, I think it's okay in the U.S., but I don't care if it's in the game or not. I know it should be historically accurate, but what can you do....

Game looks amazing...They better get the site up, having the link out there. I'm hoping for tomorrow, since it's a wednesday, and it was promised out on a wednesday... Maybe wed, 17?
