New BoB vid?
« on: June 10, 2008, 06:12:40 AM »
Check this vid. I think it’s rather Storm of War-BoB than IL2 but for Xbox? Anyway has nice graphics and maybe it’s the prelude for the BoB.

I'm such a geek it made me cringe when i first saw the spit V. 
"Willy's gone and made another,
Something like it's elder brother-
Wing tips rounded, spinner's bigger.
Unbraced tailplane ends it's figure.
One-O-nine F is it's name-
F is for futile, not for fame."

Game looks, well, what someone would expect from a 2008 retail sim.

My only wish i would like to have from that game (well) are tracers.They look very, very realistic.I don't play with tracers in ah because they look so "gamey".

What's wrong with their Spit V?  Looks great to me.

If I had whatever console that's on I'd get it for sure


EDIT:  And the ground looks awesome!!

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

Quote from: Oleg
We are not busy with Birds of Prey project. It is third party project under control of 1C. We just gave them full source code and did neccessary consultations.
It looks good, but not like BoB engine. BoB engine it is not modification of Il-2 engine.
Also I tested periodically BoP and would like to say that the contol of aircraft there and FM isn't like in all arcade sim-games, but control aircraft is more easy than in arcade sims... becasue the guys keeping some original physics from Il-2.

You need to look at some actual gun camera footage.  The tracers in that trailer look like lasers.  Real life tracers look nothing like that, the AH tracers are much more realistic.

 :lol

Ok you can keep AH tracers, I'll gladly take everything else thank you.  :O

I guess you missed the "this demo does not represent the final quality of the game" and if it did, wouldn't take 5 mins for someone in the mod community to alter the tracers to your perspective of "realistic"

Personally I can't wait to load it up.

Actually, imo the ah tracers are lasers.

The game isn't set to release until 2009. And it's for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
