Revived MicroProse Announces WarBirds 2020 on Unreal Engine 4

Nope, it’s planes only, but after playing many other combined arms games, i’ve came to the conclusion that in the long run combined arms is not that much fun, might be only me, idk.

Kudos, i was also there on Hyperlobby, it was my 2nd love after Warbirds which was slowly dying at this point, I loved the air war server, which was basicaly Warbirds but not in real time.

War Thunder did, honestly there was nothing more satisfying than taking down some lawn mower with a tank :laughing:

Equally, there is nothing more dissatisfying than being taken down by a tank…BLACK SHARK 2, I popped up in a hover, out of rage from the target tank’s MG, and while I was locking him up, BOOM! He had shot me with his main gun…and this was an AI tank! :open_mouth:

It looks almost exactly like the Poland map in War Thunder. Maybe @komemiute was right and this is intended as a stab at WT and its playerbase.

I’m not sure of anything anymore.

I think eeevery flight sim developer would like to have WT playerbase, I mean similar numbers.

Many WT gamplay videos on YT have more views than e.g. DCS F-14 launch trailer. :slight_smile:
Not saying thats an indication of anything :wink:

David Lagettie updated his twitter , notice the left corner :smiley:

What a tease, can’t wait for more :smiley:

You mean that Bf109 'E’mil trying desperately to climb to B17 altitude while he is engaged by P51D!?? :slight_smile:

That confirms what @PaulRix already mentioned. Planeset will span from early days of WWII to the late years with Me262s in the mix. :wink:

Isn’t that an ‘F’?
It is missing the struts on the tail.

Either way, it would have a hard time there. :smiley:

That bump mapping is truly excessive. Still, let’s see what the actual game looks like when it gets to us …

Not impressed. There’s a ton of inaccuracies on that model and while most people wouldn’t notice, they make me cringe. Looks far too much like an amateur’s summer project rather than a serious undertaking.

Oh yeah, thanks. It’s just that render just reminded my so much of an airfix with those bumps. Nice!
