Who knows, but I bet 9/10 of us here will run CAT extractor BEFORE the game exe

Drool!

 

Just watched "The Hunt for Red October" last night:

 

"This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it"

 

My money on the terrain debate goes to GIUK, perhaps just the very northern tip of Scotland and the southern tip of Greenland, then out to the Norwegian coast?

Cant really envision a N. Atlantic scenario not in the GIUK gap.

soo true my friend!

I can see the opening posts:

 

"Hey! Check those values!"

"You seen these RWR TGAs?"

"Anyone seen into this CAT? It's AWSOME inside"

"Look at those squadron entries!"

"Lads! Anyone actually ran the game once?"

(silence, tension)

"Ummm... errr... not yet"

Err I may be the one out of 10 to run the game first as I rarely wander into the Cat files... last time I did I broke everything...

convenient that all the shots are angled up to hide the terrain... and water..

LOL...that was my thoughts exactly.

[+Stary 2,427]

mine too

[JediMaster 451]

Interesting...check the captions for the pics. All say "AI only" in parentheses EXCEPT...the Backfire C. The B, Badgers, Prowler, etc all say AI only. A faint hope? LOL.

Do you think this means more advanced avionics and weapons systems?

Well the thirdwire Google site shows yet another backfire... a D model if I remember correctly so there sure is going to be a lot of types to intercept. looks promising .

[Gr.Viper 131]

Backfire can go 1800km/h. If we get to intercept missiles, the choice after dealing with them might be "finish off the bombers" vs "land safely".

 

By the number of shots the release might as well come this weekend.

 

So far I see. Hawkeye. could be used in SF2I Lebanon campaign as SAM fodder.

Backfire C with ASM. Fun intercepts. Also, Afghanistan.

Tu-16-10-26. 10 means it has a jammer on board. Unlike Tu-16-26 on other shot, carrying KSR-2.

Backfire B with a missile in its belly.

Yay, even old Tu-22 got it's missile variant.

EveryoneTu-16-10-26 seems to carry KSR-5. TK's better make lofted profile work right.

Backfires come with Kh-22.

transfering 2 inis and cockpit folder???

[+Stary 2,427]

LOL Kevin!

 

ok, I'm officially getting excited... The presented planeset looks sweet and... unexpected given all the small budget thing

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

Mh, we have alot of cockpits, and stuff we can make those AI only flyable ... I`m the first very happy with the WIP since I saw SF1 pics with the early jets.

 

I realy like it, but cant wait to see the "hidden" terrain, maybe it`S something realy completly new.

Most interesting point is, will the Hawkeye and the Prowler work as they should, or are they just eye candy to be complete. If, they will change gameplay in a total way.

[+JonathanRL 974]

I too hope we get a new AI Only role for ECM / AWACS. It would be so fun :P. I mean, radar linking is already present so I wonder if its too much to hope for.

 

EDIT: Google Plus page have a few shots showing water.

[+Stary 2,427]

Yeah seen those Jonathan, if you look closely, you can notice something that seems to be new water shader -Prowler shot, bottom of the image.

 

Clouds are ugh!(ly) though

 

edit:

Look just like the guys here, last shot in the third row http://www.thirdwire.com/project_wov.htm

 

BTW, using "Download photo" option on FB and G+ will give you higher resolution pics. "View full size" is enough on twitpic.
