The water
« on: August 30, 2013, 05:54:48 PM »
Would it be extremely difficult for hi-tech to make the water a little less dense so its not concrete that you cant land on? Adding a splash when you crash into water and making it look like water may be a nice little advance in game graphics?!   :salute

     I'm not sure about you, but when I hit the water, I consider my flight over  :D

Just as you're hitting the water, tap your beer can or bottle on the desk.
That'll give you a splash effect :aok  :neener:



                                                                                                                           :cheers:               :bolt:  Oz

P.S.  I do agree that the water could be more realistic. (Eye candy)
A more realistic shore would be nice too.

I don't understand the question. You want to be able to land on it? Or you don't think we should be able to land on it? 

If it were less dense, we would sink when we land/ditch on it. What is it that you want changed, and why?

because it would be more realistic is my guess.

A few years ago you could get a rooster tail off the water by dragging your wingtips then after one of the releases it stopped doing that  :cry

Cliffs has the best water detail I have seen in a combat flight sim. I love how the colour goes from a greenish tint to a near blue, very realistic.
