Where is the ground personnel?

"t will vary - different over London. Numbers matter - in il2 there is option to turn off gun crews to reduce load."

Simple.
In the game setup, an option "civilian crowd on, civilian crowd off".
By the way, as already said, no need of über-huge crowds like during a techno parad !


"Also, making them not destructible is a poor decision I think."

Yes, but we live in a stupid PC world where there are probably some authorities which will find that offensive.
By the way, as I don't understand the mentality of shooting civilians for pleasure even in a real war, it's not a problem for me not being able to shot at civilians in a sim.


"And people will fly over them lower than 100m. "

Not a valid argument.
If you fly some meters away from a cow, you may for sure not fly very long more.
On the contrary, a cow looking like a reasonable cow, seen just one or two seconds during a low pass, doesn't need to be modelled with millions of polygons.

And remember, guys, in the very first version of IL-2, all these nice guys running from the trucks when attacked.

It was ten years ago.
Today, in 2011, I'm not even asking for more.

Probably those seagulls we saw will have to wait until later. Maybe a proper next-gen dynamic campaign won't make it either. Although I really hope not.

Birds?
I hope they look like this!

I guess we will have to learn to live without the Killer Wales that attack ditched pilots and the randomized Molehills that make takeoffs so much more difficult.

Although the thing i cannot pardon is the exclusion of Susannah York she would have been such an outstanding feature.



Whatever one cannot have everything and we must learn to cope with it.

Well even though some seem to be a fan of that person I found her role in the Battle of Britain always as one that one could have well done without, also her sixties hairdo certainly never fitted for a fourties period picture...thats like having cd-players in the seventies or worse.
