Orbx continues to go preview-crazy with their upcoming TrueEarth US Washington product. As beta testing progresses, the team continue to capture shots of the product in action. The new shots posted over the past few days give us a close up of Seattle, along with the first video of the product in action at night.
The three different forum threads from beta testers John Lovell, Iain Emms and FILOU all show off something different. FILOU’s focuses on the low and slow flying across some towns and fields, with Ian’s quite the opposite swooping through skyscrapers and other buildings in the Seattle area.
These previews go along with all the others that Orbx has been showing off in recent weeks. As introduced earlier this month, TrueEarth US Washington will cover a vast amount of land with many features to keep you entertained for weeks on end. The full list of features is below.
