Wow, that lighting video is great. I'm sold.

 

One quick question. Will there be exhaust flame seen at night or evening when flying or on engine startup similar to CloD? That is one feature I never got tired of seeing in CloD that was really cool.

yes it was not implemented yet. Yes there will be non clickable start up. Flying is much more difficult in the Flights Model (FM). It has dynamic characteristic as it interacts with the DN Engines turbulence and wind effects. Which is the same in Rise of Flight.

You guys noticed that car lights shine through canopy frame and wing?

 

I suppose it is not the BoS lighting LOFT is referring to.

 

 

Those are from the in game icons. you can turn those on and off.

I like those for ground targets. Looks simple and effective.

Ok dudes, I've had another look and can confirm for you that these dots are enemy and friendly markers. Once you get closer. A range will appear as we'll. but good eye! Can't wait to get into beta! Edited July 31, 2013 by Hooves

AbortedMan,

Any tips on sim flying the Lagg-3? Thanks for all the info, btw. S! MJ

 

P.S. The cockpit for the Lagg-3 just looks so amazing captured through a camera, on the video, so it must look a million times better in game.

Ok cool. She sounds like a real nice challenge. She has such a pretty cockpit, too! What a lovely view, all around, except for the rear, I imagine. I am going to have to practice snap rolling her, as I can not out run, out climb, out dive, or out (sustained) turn any Nazi fighter. I think I will really like her, but not as much as the Yak 1 and La-5. I will bet now that I am going to love the Yak 1 and LA-5. Thank you for the advice. S! MJ
