I also hope that some day someone will do it - and Oleg sure has hinted about his desire to expand SoW this way... I remember when Operation Flashpoint came out and the exitement over a more serious large open world game where you could both play it as an FPS and a car/tank/heli/air/tractor game. Unfortunately the vehicle part of that game and all of the follow ups are way too arcadish and the AI never got as good as we hoped...

One already exists.

Ground and air work very well.
Sea exists, but is limited.

Its also a 10 year old game (some parts show it)
EDIT: note, the game has been updated, but some parts show its old age.

Some parts show it? WWIIOL has to be the clunkiest sim I've ever played... even when I first tried it 6-7 years ago, it never really impressed me.

But it CAN do what other sim games dream of.

Its not pretty, parts of it are certainly less then what you expect, but as a virtual playable world it is functionally better then all the others.

Not, "but" - because!

Because it can do what other sim games dream of, it lacks major sectors in all parts it simulates. The planes have a simplified collision boxes, like the soldiers have, including 2m high boxes for 30cm wingfoils, etc.

It would be like Battlefield,but,seriously,a lot bigger.1 terabyte the complete game will have.That would be an orgasm (sorry the term,couldn´t find a better one).Maybe in 2030 we can have this...

Till now,the future of simulation is this:

you would be pleased to know this already exists, it is called The battle Sim.

You would then be very angered to know that it exists only for the army and there are NO plans for it to be made available for us, non-empowered folk.

i will link you a vid in a sec.

I am not impressed, to say the least. Lock On anyone?

The Fighter Collection Simulation Engine

The Fighter Collection Simulation Engine (TFCSE), developed for TFC by its associate company, Eagle Dynamics, is currently integrated into the commercial entertainment software pro-duct "Lock On: Modern Air Combat". "Lock On" is a high fidelity first-person perspective flight simulator that allows the player to operate one of several US or Russian jet fighter aircraft (A-10A Warthog, F-15C Eagle, Su-27 Flanker B, MiG-29 Fulcrum A, MiG-29 Fulcrum C, Su-25 Frogfoot, Su-25T, Su-33 Flanker D).

Lock On models a large portion of the Black Sea region, including the Crimean peninsula and the western Caucuses. The area is highly detailed and includes more than 180,000 buildings, 50,000,000 trees, 21 cities, 1,700 towns and villages, 500 bridges, 18 airfields and 8 naval bases.
