How is the terrain?
« on: September 23, 1999, 12:12:00 PM »
  Back in the early alpha/beta days of CK(wb)
I used to LOVE the way the hills and valleys
rolled along when you flew over them. When ICI broke away from Domark and went with a new engine, that feeling of speed and depth went away. I guess what I'm asking is, how does the new terrain feel?  Is the terrain mostly flat, or full of peaks and valleys?

Looks like it's an amazing terrain.  
Do any of alpha testers did a ditch??? In the water? Gear up? Down?

Hey spin,

Better than sheep.

Will the sheep roam and move around?

Seriously AH guys, I ocassionally wondered how hard (and from a 'play' point of view) it would be to have the cattle, sheep, cows, etc. move around and be more life-like in that "other" sim.

Used to land off-line just to get close ups of the sheep, cows and the steers.

Heh.  I'd just pretend I could see "Az" painted on their fluffy little butts and practice strafing.  It would be more fun if they were running at the time, though ...

Talking about sheep.  I remember a news story several years ago.  Seems that local police were called to a frat house due to *strange sounds* coming from the attic.  Upon further investigation the police discovered two UW students who were in the process of being initiated into the frat.  The two students were naked, covered with butter and in the attic with them were two sheep, in a *very agitated* condition.  This according to the publicized police reports.  Make your own assumptions on this one but remember, sheep have feelings too

The game currently contains a sheep.wav

However it's in a suspiciously shocked tone of baa so it's use ingame is open to speculation.

Disclaimer: Not that I know what a shocked baa sounds like in real life.
