The waterworld video looks great HTC!

I'm curious, will the new water reflect low flying airplanes on fire?

Yes it is specific, like shooting at plane, setting it on fire, while you and the enemy are low over the water..

Why this curious response?

Grun,

I think Pacific Fighters is suppose to have the effects your looking for, I've seen a few screenshots were the plane is reflected in the water rather nicely. None yet of them on fire. But then it's gone gold so won't be long before we'll be able to see for ourselves.

And I know you can't compare or not suppose to compare boxed games to AH (well on here anyway) but really, if I'm spending my money I'll compare it to what ever I please.

Not sure on the release date. My real interest is that it uses a update of the Storm 2.0 engine. Which was used in Pirates of the Caribbean, and looked pretty awsome back then. So will be interesting to see how this one comes out.
