How did that pickup get up there on that balcony 
Sometimes it's better to experience a game as the developer intended .... then mod the **** out of it.

No idea! I was walking along doing my regular patrol when I saw it up there

I was so into playing it vanilla, that by the time I'd finished it and put in 500+ hours, I had no interest to play it anymore, so even less for modding it.

When I read this I though you were commenting on the Skyrim shots and wondered why the hell there was a pickup in the game or whether it was a name for a particular item or person in the game
Then I took a look back through the screenshots and realised what was going on

Those Outerra shots really are amazing. And I agree - the day we have a flight sim looking like that....we will be made!
Also the visual models of the planes in Lock-On & DCS A-10 make X-Planes aircraft look like badly-made freeware! Im *NOT* knockin XP10s realistic aerodynamics & airplane designer software. Its just the *visual* models I have a gripe with!

Haha, how random

Lol, it just looked funny to see that truck up there. I thought maybe a helicopter was carrying it slung underneath and dropped it

X-Plane 10 is the future of civilian sims though but yes in the main the actual models are weak but hey the other stuff is pretty good and graphically it is pretty good in other areas. I've already got some good freeware models for X-Plane 10. But focusing on a few planes in small region of the world is always going to be an easier option on the eyes! The wife found this freeware model for me today which is nice and good to fly. It can't be worse than the F-22 one which is amazingly poor and I am not sure it even handles that well.

Those A10 shots are great. Whats the learning curve like to fly that thing, looks like an uber-real fully functional cockpit!
Good find but sadly I don't think that project will ever get legs.
