After reading several posts about wants and ideas just keep in mind guys Oleg and crew only have so much processing power to aim for at the momement. The more detail the more time it takes to develop and the more we will have a FPS hit.
Only in the last few years are we seeing IL2 in it's highest settings. For the longest time it wasn't even worth running in Perfect mode.
I'm sure when BOB is released they will be aiming for the Middle System of that time and I'm sure it will look quite a bit better than what we are used to however I have a feeling we aren't going to get all the goodies with the current Tech.
That's how these sims scale over time.
So all this talk of FMs offline online AI versus human will all be a compromise. That's just what it is.
So the more threads I see about wanting AI to have the same abilities as Humans during a fight the less planes we are going to see over the Coast.
Same goes for all the other details that have been brought up.
Game Developers Focus on Core Elements of the game and Game Play IMO is paramount.
Features like weathering and less performance over time are really neat and they can add to the immersion.
I would love to see a COOP dynamic Campaign mode that supports 1000s players. I don't think it's really a goal or realistic at this time.
Rant off
