I play WOP.IL21946 and COD,i prefer the look of WOP(I didnt like the green when i 1st played it and found turning the brightness up made it look very good for me.I like the look of modded IL2'46 the colours are nice on the eyes,when I 1st saw COD it dissapointed me because it looked to bright green,I love the COD water,cockpits and damage stuff but as much as i want to like the terrain after 4 weeks it still doesnt look right to me.but I guess its all subjective.

I might even be happy if they change the game to look more like you think it should look. As long as it isn't puke green, I still win!
You had a shitfit over something I didn't actually post. You are an idiot and I suspect someone in possession of an autistic spectrum disorder. You don't even own the game!

YOU ARE WRONG, AN IDIOT AND SOMEONE WHO OBSESSES OVER A GAME HE DOESN'T EVEN OWN. GET PROFESSIONAL HELP.

Whoa there Methuselah, I *am* arguing from experience, certain people chose to duck the point. Life-long resident here guys!

He he - I remember ordering Red Baron from Strategy Plus in the UK (RIP - ordered many games from them over the phone, still remember my customer number 7885!) and receiving it by mail to Sweden two weeks later. Opening the Jiffy bag I trembled as I installed it on my 386dx-33 with that beefy 1MB SVGA card... It looked so good I had tears in my eyes A horizon that was faded - oh my god! If we had seen the graphics of CoD then and realized people would whine about them we would have cried

I'm happy about the look of the game. You're whining about it. I think it's great that you see that as a win for you. Congrats on your win!

There were several earlier flight sims than RB, but I still consider that game to be the beginning.

Oh, I've played most of them too - be sure Been flight simming since 1982... But I do agree - RB and Aces over Europe etc where really what made me realize that stuff like CoD would be possible in the future

Hayward is a troll, or a moron or both. This is the only shit he does since joining the forum, nearly always completely subjective and the replies are normally limited to 2 sentences and at best 3. He doesnt know shit, which has been proven more than once when he trolled posts about dx versions and optimization. He is very selective in his replies too so expect him to dissapear once someone makes a cogent and thought out argument against him.

The irony, you were bitching a day or two ago about others "whines" and you do EXACTLY the same thing here.

Also an argument from authority unless backed up with specific details is wandering into logical fallacy territory, aka David haywards fantasy land.

That's why I never have to worry when I respond to your posts.

Well, the haze in CoD is not there to cover the fact that the map ends "around the corner" at least It's there to give the effect all pilots know about - that the earth below almost all days is seen through a "milky" filter of haze. Many times when you go above the "haze" it's like going up through from water into the air. Below is the haze layer and a sharp limit where above that the air is crystal clear. Especially in summer time...
