UK Box Cover

[major_setback]

At least they got rid of Storm of War; they might as well have called it Perils of Pursuit. It was just too corny.

I think they could have used a bit more imagination with the title though.

The worst thing is the overall composition of the shot. Who came up with that? Certainly no one who went to art school...

Besides, what exactly is burning with black oily smoke in the wing of a Bf109E?... Honestly, why didn't Ubisoft just make a post here and ask for someone of the talented artists of our community to make them a boxart!?

I don't care about the box,I want whats IN the box!

Cliffs of Dover sounds suspiciously like a second rate drama/romantic film that somehow incorporates Dover.

You guys are just too picky or need more to do.

I wouldn't care if it had a picture of Oleg or a furry friend on the front of it... I'd buy it.

Well seeing as the OP commented on the artwork and not the title or lettering i didn't comment on that again . I made my opinion clear on that in a previous thread.

I just don't understand why game covers are almost always cheap computer generated art. Ubisoft could have easily comisioned a real artist like Ronald Wong http://www.ronaldtkwong.com/gallery/...iationart.html to paint something that would really have looked awesome. This is what books do afterall, and you don't see the front cover of a book and expect it to be full of paintings do you.

duh, big deal.. besides it looks better than anything any of you could ever dream of coming up with..

Sry for double post... But the same with original FB. Forgotten Battles, with a Hurricane and a Stuka?

How about?



Only few things worse than overdone photoshopping...

I don't really care about the box art as long as it's got good flight models and all the stuff that we expect from Oleg I am happy

I'm more worried about "Internet connection required to activate game". What's after that
"Internet connection required to play game"?

So far I am trying to stay optimistic with this new release with all of what I have read and seen, but I have to admit to being worried that I am going to be disappointed.

I was hoping that 1c was keeping the final excellence of what we can expect from CoD close to the chest until the last moment, but after seeing that official release video I am concerned that my expectations have simply been too high.
