Whatever the sim, the problems, issues and discussions about the dot representing a plane at far distances are the same. Using lower screen resolution to create a larger dot will mean a loss of quality and clarity at mid to close range. It's your choice. Personally I would always want the highest res possible and don't care if I can't see that fighter 10km or more away when like as not it would have been missed in real life. One thing I will say about CloD versus IL2 is that the identification of aircraft is so much better in CloD that I really don't feel the need to use icons. In IL2 in a 109 v Spit furball I never felt overly confident that I wouldn't shoot at my side without icons but in CloD you can just tell them apart way way before they come into range.
