Post by: Bruv119 on April 24, 2010, 03:24:54 PM: now i do love some of the graphics in SoW but some broken glass isn't what will attract me to a new game. I can go out on a friday night and see as many broken beer bottles as i like.

I'm thinking does the view system match Aces High. The flight model is it mushy and bouncy or smooth?. The ballistics of the guns and the viewing distances.

GAMEPLAY people.

Post by: skribetm on April 24, 2010, 05:55:22 PM: true dat bruv. realism trumps arcade for me anyday.
i just posted the screenys to show how much more graphics *could* be better with AH.
sure have gone a long way since last major update but theres still room to grow.

I highly doubt they would used laminated glass for something like that.

Post by: Krusty on April 26, 2010, 06:05:22 PM: bullet proof glass, yes. That was laminated to stop bullets if I recall. The rest wasn't glass at all. It was persepex or whatever. Plastics, I think.

Well usually only the forward most pane was armor glass :)

Having seen broken plexiglass before... That doesn't seem unlikely even if it wasn't real glass.

Yep! Thats the one I meant :)

Also rear glass panels on a number of planes, but rarely the rest.

Post by: Kazaa on April 26, 2010, 09:56:02 PM: You guys do know that this game has been delayed for about 4 years now and is still along way from being finished.

Only about a handful of planes will be in the game also, just the Battle of Britian ones.

Post by: Dr_Death8 on April 28, 2010, 05:51:10 PM: I was going to say did they finally get that out now? Storm of War has been in development since Moby Dick was a minnow. :bolt: Or at least 2 wives ago...

Post by: mechanic on May 03, 2010, 02:23:32 AM: looked to me like your pc might die if you tried to run minesweeper and solitair at the same time, jay :D
Title: Re: Cracked/Broken Glass
Post by: Krusty on May 03, 2010, 02:31:26 AM: Yeah, it doesn't look all that hard to run. A few more polys than AH in the cockpit, a nice shine/light on the glass areas, but IMO the big thing will be shadows. Like AH, I guess most will turn them off for FPS boost.

Other than that, what's so taxing about that screenshot?

Post by: jdbecks on May 03, 2010, 04:52:22 AM: Are they going to model engine torque in this game or will it be similar to IL2?
Title: Re: Cracked/Broken Glass
Post by: Krusty on May 03, 2010, 06:50:09 PM: It is IL2. Just another version of it.
