It will be interesting to see how it turns out when it’s finally released, but I will say that the preview video doesn’t get me very excited. FlyingIron set the bar for the spitfire in most areas and while the exterior model looks very nice the cockpit is decidedly “last-gen” looking both in the pretty severely simplified 3d geometry and sadly seemingly very low res textures. Flying Iron didn’t leave the door very wide open for other devs to surpass them in any area besides perhaps some deeper systems modeling. However for me, the AH Spitfire would need to really out-do FlyingIron by quite a bit in that regard to make up for the underwhelming visuals.
I am likely not alone in suggesting that I’m not super keen on buying ANOTHER spit, especially if it isn’t as nice as the one I already have. I’ll wait on reviews before passing judgement, but this is shaping up to be a pretty easy $30-$60 saved on my end.
