Just imagine CloD with WoP map

lol, this guy is really funny.

I'm not nearly as funny as the Wings of Puke fanboys.

mwahahaha someone is on my side ! the construct of the scenery is good. yes the colours bad. without hours and hours of tweaking it cant be made better. when i get those hours in front of me. i will deliver a new colour experience.

Isn't he just?
I don't even think David has been to England before, let alone lived there all his life and flown over it a number of times. He is completely incredulous, but then that leads to delussionment, so it's clear to see why.
I won't even bother posting any shots of england to demonstrate that WoP more accurately reflects the layout of the terrain here in Blighty, because guess what? I've already done it, Rocket Dog has already done it, as have many others.
CloD has a number of things which are better than WoP, but the layout of the country-side, then way the trees are orientated, and the way the LoD models of bulding's is transitioned is much better.
Don't get me wrong, colour-wise WoP really does fail to replicate England, but that is not really the point, so the green-puke-filter rubbish is rather irrelevent.

CloD has the ability to look perfect, but the areas in which it fails on are extremely important: 3-D hedgerows (mising from every flight-sim I can think of); darker trees; neat land-arrangement of fields and housing estates; and, something which hasn't really been touched on, and accurate portrayal of trees from the air (the trunks should be completely invisible, with just a mass of foliage being seen.)

It's completely relevant when it's causing your eyes to bleed. You might be able to ignore it, but I can't.

ok, im going to give you folks a WOP makeover. it wont be pretty though.

If your eyes are bleeding go to a hospital. TBH, I can't find any credibility in a poster's view, especially when it comes to the subject of visual aesthetics, when he is telling me his eyes are bleeding.

Here's some help for you; the filter does not affect the layout of the terrain. You, my dear sir, are just being childish. And you are what, 47 did you say? It's amazing how adults can act so childish.

And to add; yes, I agree that comparisons between CloD and WoP are largely irrelevent. Because WoP is modelling a lot less details than CloD is. The comparison over terrain layout is only to show that, even without 3-D hederows or the like, not much is needed to be well on the way to make the CloD landscape look more like England.

Then why do you keep doing it? CoD looks better by a very large margin. There might be a few small details that WoP gets better because it's map is much, much smaller, but, overall, CoD crushes WoP like a little ugly bug.

David, you are really not listening to or taking on board anything that anyone is saying. The specific point we are making about one feature of WOP has been made many times now in this thread. You keep arguing about something else despite being told that most people already agree with your point (the green thing!)

We get your position, but there comes a point where it is wise to just 'agree to disagree' with what others are saying, otherwise this thing will degenerate into :

"Oh yes it is..."
"Oh no it isn't...", etc , etc

Sorry, but you're doing the exact same thing. You're ignoring the green puke and tiny map size and zooming in on some small detail of WoP that you like better than CoD. When you compare the overall look, including the green puke, CoD blows WoP away. It's not even a close call.
