CoD vs some other sims that model Kent?

WoP has those horrible filters, but the shape and definition of the fields and patches of woodland looks MUCH better than CloD.

I think this is a fairer representation of FSX; the South East England scenery pack:
The onlt one to get the colours about right.

Down low over the cliffs please for comparison! I can go to Google Maps to look at satellite images

Wow that looks horrible.

S!

Take the screens from same place as close as possible with same position of plane etc.. for example over Dover to get good comparison. Otherwise nice set of pics.

I don't own the other games so I'll have to go on what I see in the screenshots posted.

I think it's fair to say CoD is the clear winner, judging from what I see. The game, with the right lighting, can look absolutely breathtaking.

I dont know what you guys have... I in fact think that CloD looks MUCH better than all of them together.
I think graphicswise there is nothing that can hold a candle for CloD. Not even ROF or WoP.

Ditto!

CoD wins hands down. whoever put the texture and modelling pack for FSX together needs to visit southern england.

Pretty much the only places where FSX looks good "down low" are the cities and the areas around different airports (assuming you sprung for the 3rd party add-ons).

WOP, looks good, but I wouldn't say realistic given the filters, and the view distance, and the lighting and claustrophobic map sizes.

FSX, WOP, and IL-2 have pretty much peaked. ROF and CloD are the only two that are going to improve given they are newer (newish) game engines. The two of them are (compared to MS) tiny, tiny developers, with limited funds and staff, so improvements and upgrades are going to be "bite sized" instead of huge Service packs that radically alter or improve the game. Also it's yet to be seen if there will be an active 3rd party industry centred around these two titles.

MS's "Flight" is looking to be "FSX version 1.5" so I don't see it getting much better, and probably sticking to the Satellite Photos method that has done MS well so far.

You've got to remember that FSX and Flight are Procedure sims, while CloD is a combat sim. They each have their strengths and weaknesses.

IMHO


FSX= dx9+32 bit system.

CoD=dx10+64bit system and maybe dx11.


nuff sayed.
