True but if you then imagine all the yellow-y fields to be more like the surrounding ones then the SoW image starts to make more sense.
The problem is that all of the textures have to work together A/C, ground, water etc. The devs are recreating the world thier way. It has to be coherent as a whole, taking into account the average PC's capabilities.
For me WoP was getting close to photo realism in places (hell, I have screen grabs from the PS3 BoP that look so close to reality it's scary!) and I have no doubt that Sow will look far better than WoP.
Truth is no-one on here knows what it actually looked like flying next to a hurricane over England in 1940, it's all subjective because the colour film of the time was not 'correct' colour wise and the rest of it is all black and white.
There has to be some level of interpretation allowed to the developers that makes it all 'fit'
