Way too much green IMO.

I opened up a few frames in GIMP to read the RGB values and make sure it wasn't just my monitor...

White roofs and spinner? Green dominant.
Sky? Green dominant.
Clouds? Green dominant.

I can't say I appreciate the effect.

edit... More about the sim than the scenery, but still applies.

It's amazing that the BoP devs don't add a configuration option to "enable/disable" the "band of brothers" old color film effect that everybody hates...

Could they add also a 1940/2010 landscape switch, or a 1940/1943 airfield switch?

The filming is good but why is everything pea green,what happened to blue and red? The colour or lack of it is awful-disgusting.

The Hurricane doing a flat turn looked very unusual. Hope SOW is more based around flight model

Cheers!

In all fairness, the colour balance/temperature can be adjusted on most monitors to suit personal tastes.

Overall I liked the video. I think everyone just has different taste. It would be very boring if we all liked the same thing.

Very true, but what's been annoying Oleg is people constantly saying. . .

"But WOP/BOP has much more realistic looking terrain in it!"

As julian265 pointed out, it's really too green and a lot of the naturalness and "realism" are a result of tricks they use to fool the user into believing things look real. Take a photo of the Hurricane and compare it to a real colour photo of it, you'll notice the WOP one looks nothing like the real colours, but it has to be that colour because the rest of the game is so drab and washed out with greens.

Like mazex said, they're using that awful "drab" filter effect from SPR and Band of Brothers.
