Outstanding!
One of the best I have seen up to now.

And the first to show the G.50. Noofy will have tears in his eyes! :)

And the first to show the G.50.

Yes? I didn't know that :D

[56RAF_stickz]

yep, like derda thats is the best looking video I have seen so far. You need to stop making them so I can forget all about for next 10days.
So sorry cant resist this, nice to see someones shooting is nearly as bad as mine :). How do you setup to target the ships guns - do you just make an area to strike?

[IIJG27Rich]

Yes very nice video. I'm ready with my cash for Thursday :) :salute:

[Bussard]

Nice work. Better not set up an airfield close to the coast.

That Battleship really did a number on that army position, and then that Hurri really did a number on that G.50! Can't wait to get in the skies there.

It was... intentional... blame the director, not the actor :D
I wanted to filming a bit longer chasing, to have lot of cutscene for dogfight BFM, but the 3rd Hurricane switched off the lights before I planned :D. Then I found the result was interesting (not planned or staged at all), and I decided to keep this. I'm sure Karaya or the others will post dogfight scenes where everyone will die quickly and spectacularly anyway. :shoot:


How do you setup to target the ships guns - do you just make an area to strike?
Area or selected target, both can work. IIRC In the video I set the target on one of the Italian gun. But the ships was quite far (10+ km or so), so the accuracy was rather "area" than "target".

Did you notice a change in AI behaviour? Or are you under NDA?

Sorry, but I can't judge it. I flew very few offline missions, I mostly fly online (If I have time). This mission was a very simple one too.
I don't testing them, I can't tell you any first hand experience with AI or the missions, but I see on the forums that the offline content, campaigns is a very important part of Tobruk DLC, and I know that the radio commands and AI is improved a lot.

Good news for offliners. We will find out soon. Really looking forward to create missions.

This was video indeed Epic!
Loved the Lighting of the sim...Those clouds!

Is the ocean looking more detailed or are my eyes larger than my stomach?

Awesome Vid!
