Yeah, they've got some old shots of MvR's DR.1. There are only three, though, two of which show the old damage model.

Of course, if that doesn't work, here are some paintings and concept drawings for the game.

The skins are the default ones that came with the game. They're due to have an editor out soon.

And you meet planes in different color schemes as well. Rudolf Berthold, Fritz Rumey, Lothar von Ricthofen, Karl Bolle, and several others are featured for the German D.VII. I've also seen screenshots of Edward Rickenbacker's SPAD and Frank Luke's SPAD.

Well managed to make my pa order the game on amazon

Now I started to think...what about the campaign? Will the frontline move forward/backwards? Will you always encounter enemy airplanes, or is is random?

Anyone knows anything about this?

Yes, the front will change over time. However, it is not a dynamic campaign where your actions can directly affect it, as was the case with CFS3.

More often than not, you will. Every campaign generates random missions, so that part is dynamic. You could, for instance, fly a mission as Jasta 6 on September 4, 1918, and have a bomber escort mission assigned. You could create a new career as a Jasta 6 pilot again, and find that on September 4, 1918, your mission would to destroy a balloon or attack an aerodrome. It varies, really.

I got to looking over at YouTube for player videos of ROF, and I came across some amazing stuff. This guy's rig in particular runs the sim beautifully:

On that first one, did you see the Fokker part where the guy had one plunge right down in front of his machine to try and take down that Nieuport he was fighting? Awesome stuff, lol.

Well that would've been very unrealistic. Good thing they didn't have it that way

Cheers mate

Interesting, but before ordering some questions are necessary.
How may reinstalls can I make ?
Can I play without internet connection ?
Does this game install securom or starforce ?

Nice youtube vide SH! Any word on this hitting the US in nice shiny disc form?

Schroeder · 06-21-09, 01:58 PM

Is it just the Youtube quality or is the sound rather weak? I mean I did by no means expect the roaring thunder of high HP WWII engines but the Fokker really sounds toy plane.

Task Force · 06-21-09, 02:14 PM

youtube... im pretty sure.

Well, World War 1 Radial engines kinda have the sound of a lawnmowers...
not to say thats a bad thing, I hate sims/games that make these aircraft sound like High power beasts.

listen at that sopwitch at the beginning
