Hmm, fly in "over a dozen" planes? Well that's good.

Restrain me.

They even got the British MkI gunsight lens right this time (round).

Marketing will flop this game...

IMO this trailer was a huge screw up. I don't know if a poor system was used but the in game graphics look awful with no FSAA. Also, you can tell they weren't running at a very high resolution because even if you downsample something to 720p without FSAA, it will crispin up the jaggies and the overall picture will look much sharper.

This is the kind of crap that kills off potential fringe buyers. They will look at this video and deem it doesn't look much improved over IL-2 and that there are much better looking fligt sims out their for their dollar.

you remember how many flyable planes shipped with the original il2 right?

[leitmotiv]

The core audience of dedicated flight sim aficionados will buy this, and, unless there is is something wrong with it, the rest will follow. A silly video is not going to influence the aficionados who have been following all the videos, screenshots, interviews, and notices posted by Oleg & Co. for the past seven years.

There will be more than a dozen flyable planes available in CoD. It doesn't matter how many Il-2 came with; the marketing team is "underselling" this product.

There is also a German campaign that Ubi failed to mention in the item description, causing panic everywhere until Luthier made a post regarding it, and finally the marketing team hashed together footage from Oleg's and Luthier's low spec computers (which they use for optimization) rather than ones which can crank up the visuals. It's also pretty unexciting compared to the WoP trailers for instance, and overall, looks like it was done in a couple days.

At the 38 second mark what the hell is this radial engine plane being attacked by a Hurricane??

Looks like a Japanese zero to me !

anyone care to venture a guess?

Oh I know now

[trumper]

I think it's an Italian Macchi [possibly]

[LtLenny]

I believe the radial-engined plane is a Fiat G.50. The Italians had a brief involvement in the Battle of Britain. If I recall, they did not do well.
