I hope they'll clean the rivers up a bit since they look a bit jagged and rough, but other than that, hot damn.

Re: Latests Dev Diary
Well i am suprised with them already having this mutch to show about next map, and it looks good, yes rivers are strange but still better then in previous games.
The timeline BlackSix was reserching shows they aim to have stuff for fall 1944 to spring 1945, and looking on ww2 operations maps depending on map size there is planty of operations to have there on one map and with planset they will offer.
I hope they revile map area next week, even if in size it will not be bigger then existing ones it will give more to game i think, and they still work on 2 other maps ( new WW1 map and for tanks Prokhorovka map) while doing this one, crazy speed!.
Edit:
And if Finland guys manage to finish their 260 x 200km Finland war map for BoX, that would be great, planset is already in game. http://www.kanttorinkone.com/ler3/karelia.html

Re: Latests Dev Diary
Hngggggggg. Yes please. I was saying to Kildren a while back that a Winter War setup for BoX would be great fun, glad to hear that we might get something like it after all.StG77_CountZero wrote: Edit:

Finnish war without the B-239 will be like the BoB without the Spitfire
I do like to shoot down planes yes I do
Re: Latests Dev Diary
The Bodenplatte stuff does look good, but I've never been a fan of the trees in the BoX series, when drawn from a distance - they always seem to have a glow around their edges, which makes them look like identical clip mapped planes to me - a bit cartoony. Still, it's probably an fps saver so good from that point.
And besides, the view I get the most when it comes to trees, is when I'm trying to find a gap between all that foliage to land my burning airframe. And from that vantage point, they do look wonderful...

Re: Latests Dev Diary
If BoX guys know how to do one thing right then it would be map building. Scenery looks great, and what's more important it's very well optimized. I've heard some people complaining about FPS drops on Kuban map but it's to be expected if they play the game on Nintendo DS.
Even though at the distance some stuff might look blurry or whatnot, the balance between looks and performance is, in my opinion, perfect.

If they go for Midway like they planed, F2A-3 should then be in gameJammy wrote:Finnish war without the B-239 will be like the BoB without the Spitfire
