They have about 4-5 months to release the final product.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is going to be a delay though.

You think?  Maybe they should have held off on the press release blitz until after they had placed their first ground object.

Oh, and that quote is just too perfect.  It's getting added to my sig.

I know as much as you do, we will know soon enough when/if they will post next screenshots or a video.

How do you know I'm not Wild Bill?  Have you ever seen us both in the room together at the same time?   :cool:

I'm not busting your balz (much).  I'm busting Mild Dill.  He is the kind of salesman I've had to deal with at too many companies who's mind is pristinely untroubled with ethical considerations about how features or timelines are promised.

That pony has some serious rivets!

It looks almost steam-punk.  It looks like a golf ball.  ;)

An amazing likeness though ( except the real-life modellers made it way too smooth and aerodynamic-y ):

I think the graphics will go well together with what Warbirds are, it's not a hardcore sim like DCS or Falcon

That's about how I remember the 47 in WBs feeling when I was flying it.

About all that needs to be said by the look of it is, it looks like Wild Bill hasn't changed since I was there.  I don't regret leaving.

Mark my words, these new Warbirds will be a success, they are going for the War Thunder, Fortnite crowd with those graphics and free to play.
