Then perhaps the game's colour palatte should be designed to work with the monitors we have rather than the really expensive ones we don't?

...Because everyone's monitor is slightly different and nothing the team will do will look quite right for everyone. Additionally, on properly calibrated screens, things will look too dark.

But frankly, I think the CoD colors are fine as they are.

Color and gamma settings should be customisable ingame, but in such a way that nobody can draw advantages from some extreme settings in online gameplay.

Can't you customise some of the settings in your gfx driver specifically for this game? I use custom gfx settings for IL2FB in my nvidia driver, however i don't remember whether gamma and color settings can be changed.

Green is supposed to be such a 'calming' colour........

Not too sure about this. Whilst rapeseed oil only became a human food after WW2 it has been used for industrial purposes like lubrication and as a biofuel (lamps etc) for centuries. I think it could even have been grown widely during the war for precisely these purposes but am not sure about this.

After WW2 the erucic acid was bred down to levels which made rapeseed oil fit for humans. Further refinements including the removal of bitter glucosinolates were done much later in the late 70's/early 80's to generate canola which certainly is a modern crop (and getting more modern with today's much more precise modifications).

First I wasn't aiming at you......just in case I have yet again offended.

To an extent yes I want accuracy, but colour of grass discussions are getting silly, it is obvious that a majority a saying it needs to change.....thats fair enough, I'm all for democracy.

Well, the first thought that came to mind when I looked down at the land was it was a bit bright compared to the typical green of the English country-side on a bright summers day.

But, there are more pressing matters. :p

I don't know in what dreary, dry, and dark region of the earth most of you guys live in, but when I compare IL2's colours to the colours I see here in Switzerland, I'd say the grass and stuff is perfectly fine.
