You're complaining that the hedgerows aren't quite right in a FLIGHT SIM. Don't talk to me about being difficult. Physician, heal thyself.
Seriously, this sim comes up short for you because the hedgerows aren't quite right and some of the decals might be wrong. That is amazing.

Alright let me put it this way. Firstly regarding colour, the team has the access to model England accurately (according to you). They failed. Google it. The CLoD map looks nothing like the England I fly over. It did in one of the betas, now it looks awful. Of course photos offer good sources, but Oleg always said how they were limited. You are being difficult. You're questioning the people who have lived and thrived in this country and suggesting that a small Russian team is more knowledgeable on our own history. Laughable.
Secondly, at no point have I suggested the lack of hedgerows and decals spoils the sim. The lack of a BoB aspect spoils the sim. I can't enjoy anything near the gameplay that BoB2 has to offer (currently). If I fly CloD for the graphics, I want it to be perfect.
The landscape can be improved, the decals, the campaign, the AI, the missions, the weather etc etc. A lot has to be done for an immersive BoB experience. Now it looks like the community will have to achieve this.
Yes you might ask me to move onto another sim, but why? I love having the choice, and I can recognise how good CloD could be. A channel scrap doesn't satisfy me.
Additionally, this discussion only stemmed from your questioning of the teams resources for the BoB. The fact they sought community information quashes your argument completely. You'd already blown holes in it; now you're trying to throw it into extinction. My comments on the landscape, decals et al weren't game-spoiling matters for me; they were areas which showed the teams limitation. Not bad by any standards, but elements which teams of community 'experts' would happily enjoy re-touching.
Hence why community support and expansion for CloD (working alongside other title) will be brilliant.
