Default landscape of official storm of war trailer



yesterday i saw this trailer for the first time, and i have to confess, i was really impressed by the landscape storm of war had back then.
i was told that the trailer was made in 2007 and used the old il2 engine.
what i really dont understand, how is it possible that the landscape in this trailer is sooo much superiour to the one we have now.

i dont want to citizise the devs with this thread.and i dont want to start another compare thread.thats not my intention.
what i would like to know is, how long would it take for the devs, to change the current landscape, so that it would resemble the one of the trailer.
in my opinion the former landscape looks way more natural and convincing, at least for me.
especially the colours and the placement of trees and hedgegrows are in my focus.

is it possible, with this amount of staff, to make such huge changes to the landscape?is it plausible that we will see something like that one day?or is it an unrealistic expectation?
i dont have no glue about programing so i thought i would ask.

ps: i know there are far more important things right now.

All i want from that landscape is the colors and trees.
The colors are spot on perfect. Luthier who ever made the colors on that vid, get him back please.

Im sure the topography and other things are much better on our new landscape but please the colors and tree placement are perfect for England.

If you like that vid, you might want to look up the Mysticpuma vid too.(il have a look round for it)

Jesus Christ almighty you guys should campaign for a whinging sport to be added to the Olympics I am sure we would have the bronze, silver, and gold medal winners on this forum... Surely you have something better to do than constantly bitching....

I never saw the point in crying over something that don't exist. This has been beaten to death a hundred times.

You don't have it, you won't have it, you'll never get it!!!!

The thing is, it did exist that's the point.

I've given up with expectation for this sim for at least another 12-18 months. I'm sure by then it will be absolutely brilliant or it won't be here at all. I sure do hope it is the earlier.

Here hoping.

I'm curious to know what happened to the German locos and railway vehicles all I can find in the FMB objects are British tank engines, unless someone knows better, I wanted to make missions attacking German supply trains etc
