I want immersion if the terrain adds to that then they can spend as long as they like getting it right, as I spend my time online in Coop and campaign missions I want everything they have to make my time spent flying more than a mere shootem up.
If you want something else apart from immersion then fly something else, a desert flight sim probaly Suit You Sir !!
Oh BTW you need to read about how trees grow  : http://www.forestry.gov.uk/fr/INFD-626LBY |

current tree photos are, frankly, useless.
60 years too late. Has nobody thought about this??????????????????????

Are you suggesting that trees have genetically mutated in the last 60 years?!
(edit: BTW, I thought the trees looked fine height-wise and number-wise)

A flight SIMulator has to simulate the ground; the ground has trees; therefore....
And if they're going to do them they may as well do them well (not perfect, mind, but to a standard in keeping with the rest of this excellent game)

the old 'either..or' situation again. Who says they can't do both?! Also the current state of air/aircraft pics suggest they're pretty well on the ball. The tree-landscape situation was/is at a less advanced stage. It's right that attention was/is paid to improving them.
Anyway, this whole thing is getting pretty tired now.
