Congratulations on 2 things Devs

[pilotpierre]

1. The clouds are the best I have ever seen in a sim.

2. The sniper rear gunners are no longer snipers, much more realistic (and enjoyable) me thinks.

I'll say. Clouds look fantastic.

[Bladderburst]

I second that. Well balanced gunners, very very very nice clouds (and everything else might I add).

[WindyCityZeke]

I was just coming here to post on the clouds too.   Amazing!! Flying through them is just jaw dropping.

Another thumbs up for the clouds. I've been very happy with the progress of the sim, and the expectation that we'll finally get a true next-generation WWII flight sim after CloD failed, but also somewhat concerned that the 'pits and general graphics presentation isn't quite up to what CloD delivered at it's best. These clouds are it... they blow away just about everything else I've seen in weather effects and realism, and they play really, really well.

 

Now if we can just get the next set of fighters into the MP along with the bigger Stalingrad map, my cup will runneth over.

In my opinion, the clouds are too blurry.

+1  not natural and too much carton

Everybody has their opinion. From a certain perspective (above ) the clouds look good. But when flying under in the morning hours or dusk they look like a cartoon. 

I loved the old clouds.

Opinions are what we all have and what we are all entitled to share here, but I just don't agree that the current clouds are like a 'cartoon' in any way, shape or form.

 

And just to show the absolute impossibility that the devs have in pleasing everyone, I actually thought the old clouds were just a little too fluffy and 'Walt Disney' in appearance. Under certain conditions they could be good, but they were definitely more cartoony and less natural than the current ones.

Funny you should mention "cartoon". The other day I looked out the window and was struck by how cartoonish the real clouds looked. I ascertained that's because the clouds in some games have become so photo-realistic my brain is now fooled into thinking the real ones look like game items and are therefore "cartoonish". It was a very weird moment.

[sport02]

yes in real clouds can be different depending of wheather and not detailled often why bad wheather , but sorry a beautiful wheather cumulus is cottony and clearly defined , but in the game we have not that difference it's always blurry

 

however I like when I begin to enter in the cloud

Glad the snipers are gone and yes the clouds look amazing. I am waiting to fly the Bf-109G-2!!!

[6S.Manu]

I agree. The clouds are amazing!

Who else looks at at white clouds on an otherwise sunny day and starts singing, "The....Siiimp..sons...der der der der (etc)"?

But these "new" recruits...

 

 

They came from CloD?
