Civilians?

Why do people find it so impossible to understand that at current technology levels, we cannot implement the world, or even a fraction of it.

What we do is reproduce enough in a player-experience to try to give that person the impression they are, for instance, flying a plane. Over England, say.

For the love of God, would people please stop asking for detail that is beyond this decade's processing power?

Well said.

And can people also note that just because a feature could be modelled in SoW:BoB, that doesn't mean it will. It isn't just a question of processing power, other resources are finite too.

Exactly
People need to realize that because something is possible doesn't mean its gonna be implemented. Any engine of any game has endless more possibilities than what's actually included in a specific game, unreal , cryengine.. (aka It's a ******* engine)

Besides why would we be interested in a simulated world, we are here for a flight sim.

Of course there are other ways of developing an immersive environment for a combat sim experience. But for the life of me I cant bring myself to ask my wife to get up at four o'clock, dress up as my batman, polish my boots wake me up with a cup of tea before cooking me a hearty meal of kippers prior to my first mission of the the day!

Personally I think it would be more likely to get Oleg to include civilian targets!


Cheers!

Hmmm , I seem to remember another groupe of people who went around telling others what they could and couldnt say and how they should and should'nt be thinking... now what were they called , oh well perhaps it will come to me later.

Lol! We're not trying to be nazis about it, it's just that quite a lot of people have very unrealistic expectations which they can be quite adamant about. I do try to be polite in my posts, but it's tiresome to read well thought-out, highly detailed but completely unrealistic requests.

Bingo! Some people's expectations are really starting to get quite ridiculous. This game has enough of a hype-complex already without people being so silly.

[AndyJWest]

Quite right Grunch.

Perhaps Oleg should release two versions of SoW:BoB: a flight sim for the 'realists', and a 'universal simulator' for the dreamers. Expected release dates are 'realist' version within six months*, 'dreamers'... well never really, they can think of new things to add faster than anyone could possibly program them in...

*Ok, maybe I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one...

Perhaps because airplanes are flown in the world? .......Just sayin'.
