the other big issue is "the right FoV setup" for that individuals monitor, and most people will not know about it or for their own reasons prefer to fly with an incorrect FoV to get better peripheral vision (while flying around in a scenery populated by dinky-toy models, or will use the zoom-cheat to search for objects and say "but i can see them fine". people can use the sim as they like, but to define "what is normal" and how bad the visibility problem is in CoD it is the most important setting to be right at the start of any discussion on visibility.

does anybody know if in the files we can have a look at the individual LoD models, or if this is locked and hidden ? (probably is hidden , otherwise you could give all enemy planes a bright fluro orange skin and make them stand out more)
well, what they really want is the bright fluro orange skin... (or flashing neon arrows

How bad the visibilty is? the age old "we can't spot the dot" has reared it pathetic head again, pure and simple
