Well it's official

Take your time. I've been waiting a lot of years for a replacement for "Fleet Defender". I can wait a bit longer.

 

Me too. I'm not expecting fleet defender, but something the same vibe.

 

I'll have Russians by Sting, ready to go though....

A new waterworld with carriers - where a Campaign may need you to fly a Recce flight or two that is PRODUCTIVE in order to find your foe and launch attacks perhaps?

 

Or is that me dreaming about new and wonderous campaign scrips again? :D

 

Speaking of Campaign Scrips, I am willing to bet a beer that the new mission format (I doubt it will be standard anti-ship or strike) will be based upon Balloon Busting from FE2.

 

Would fit perfectly. "Protect Task Force", "Defend task force". Basic parameters with multiple targets and some has to be destroyed/defended already set :)

there's plenty of weather mods around, so no issue really,

 

If any of them worked as intended at the latest patch level I would not keep beating this horse . lets hope he has the good sense to address the issue before he releases this. Every thing else we have seen looks amazing, it would be pretty stupid put all of this work into the terrain ,yet neglect the sky.

a few more shoots

for a second I thought the clouds are new (1st picture)

 

 

I want do 50 ft 500 kts above that terrain in mud mover NOW!

Yes, TK, we get it, there are 3D waves around the ship, smoking ships, reflecting explosions. Oh, and that Iceland looks hot even in crappy weather with clouds almost on the mountains. And that you're running it 1900x1200. But when do we get our fix?

 

Huh, the ship in the third shot is actually firing its MG, but it's hard to see unless you download full res.

Darn this is just too sweeeeet...

[+Soulfreak 6,510]

Well I´m sure SF2 NA will be a big step forward.

But the stock clouds are still ugly (I think).

Aaaand, I´m not sure what will happen with the terrain engine...

[+Stary 2,427]

eah I wonder how it would handle some more warm regions (jungle...)

[Gr.Viper 131]

Have we seen any trees/houses on the terrain yet?

Nope....

[+Stary 2,427]

and I wouldn't be suprised if there are none in fact... it's more terrain mesh test that Iceland

[Gr.Viper 131]

Well, that's one way to get rid of TODs.

 

Airfields have to be there, however.

[+Stary 2,427]

no, just carriers, ond only for Tomcat and eventually Forgers... due to development costs Tupolevs will magically spawn on map border

 

j/k I have no idea

[JediMaster 451]

Trees? In Iceland?

[Fubar512 1,350]

Trees? In Iceland?

 

Oh, you're from Florida....that explains why you've never heard of "ice trees"

[+Stary 2,427]

Trees? In Iceland?

 

quite a bit of them, really

 

contrary to Greenland... those damn random names

[Fubar512 1,350]

quite a bit of them, really

 

[+Dave 2,322]

Trees?

 

It's a tall plant like object with branches. But that's not important right now.

Since you said it, we're gonna blame you when TK posts the next 10 screenshots on Facebook being close ups of the new trees instead of Tomcat pr0n.

[Wrench 9,801]

I've had my fill of Tomcat p0rn ... I want forests & fields p0rn!!!!!
