The screenshots I see confirm that CoD does an amazing job of replicating British farmland. It's far better than any WW2 air sim I have ever seen. I could probably convince someone that the CoD screenshot is a photo. I have no idea what you are looking at.
Well all these other guys who live in England seem to know what I'm on about David.
I'll say it again incase you missed it ~ The photos above show what CoD needs, closer tree spacing for sure and small low bushes round the field boundaries, amongst other small things that add to the greater picture.
Like the fields are very scattered, British farm land fields are usually in groups, several of wheat, then several grazing land in a group for example, if you look at the screenshot above it looks too patchwork like, and compare it too the real photo you can see exactly what I mean.

I can also add that there is no darkening in colour over distance, being a trained observer I know that is one of the first things you learn that over distance colours are darker.
I think the only reason your WoP screen dont look like summer is because of the filter you dont like.
I dont think you could convince anyone that that is a real photo both WoP and CoD are a long way off real life but i think WoP is closer to simulating the realistic horticultural model of English countryside.
The closest i have seen to real life in a screen shot was a RoF screen.
