Visual comparison between COD and other upcoming releases
Hey
So this post isn't about griping about the deficiencies of COD, but rather to take stock of how other developers are progressing in graphics compared to COD. Maybe this is can then highlight some of the features that COD should be aware of in regards to patches and upcoming releases. Anyway, to start the ball rolling, here is a fan vid of World of Planes (not World of War Planes). http://ve3d.ign.com/videos/88505/PC/...play/Fan-Video I perceive the differences as: 1. Planes not as well modelled as COD and lacking reflections, although video res is not great 2. Instruments in cockpit look sub par compared to COD. However, those tiny scratches on the canopy look really great with the sun's reflection. 3. I think the landscape looks more believable compared to COD. 4. I like the haze effect of distant objects far more than COD. 5. In the seen where planes are flying underneath. I think this shows a more realistic representation on the visibility of aircraft flying over ground compared to COD. 6. Are the explosions here a bit Hollywood-ish compared to COD? 7. Really dislike the plane flames on this compared to COD. 8. I could be a tard and this video was made using COD. Please do bash away, this thread is meant to start the discussion. What about MS flight sim, ROF or World of War Planes? Planes in BF3 ( I hate BF3's planes  ) ?

Doesn't even compare on any category IMO. Just watch this:

Thanks for posting. My initial impression is that CloD is superior in almost all respects. I dislike very much the green tinge to everything, the cockpits and aircraft models look poor, the flames awful. Clouds may be better. I think the haze is there just to reduce viewing distance artificially - much prefer CloD in this respect which has incredible viewing distance and a very believable haze.
All in all, I think CloD wins out easily.

Clod looks better but after playing the game it's a bit of a false representation of what it really is at the moment.
World of planes looks good too , I like the pacific aspect of it.

Awesome! Makes me want to buy a flight ticket and go kick ATI's or NV's b@ts in order to get some real GPUs so we can enjoy this game!  ~S~

Its a shame I don't stop often stop to smell the roses and take in the view with COD whilst flying. Found this however:
It is dated earlier than the previous vid on WOP (World of Planes). Still not on the level of the COD War cry video... however, I think its shows some nice explosion and debris effects (see where ship gets hit + debris spewed out when plane explodes... the plane it self looks horrible in the explosion though) For 1 second (0:15) it seems that tracer trails are affect by air flow of plane. Whilst the scene from the ground battle looks very immersive compared to the old IL2 battles. I agree on the clouds as well. Glaring problem though... planes really do not look good...
