CoD vs some other sims that model Kent?

Hope that clear enough for you.

I thought there was a patch on the the way to improve the landscape? I wouldn't be so quick to (attempt to) gloat if I were you. You might end up looking more of a prat than you already do, son. Alternatively, if the devs were (God forbid) to take your attitude, fine, but don't attempt to sell CLOD on the basis of 'unparalleled realism' or some shit. By the way:

YOU ARE STILL WRONG

a) You must have had a pretty poor imagination; b) if my imagination is to be a significant component of the game can I have a rebate please; c) if you really believed this crap you'd be playing Spitfire '40 on a Spectrum emulator, I mean it's practically a blank canvas eh

By the way, those of you who think that CoD looks terrible, you should do what I did with WoPuke. Take it off your computer. I didn't go whining to the WoPuke forums. I removed the game from my PC and moved on with my life. You should do the same.

I never said I wanted 'green puke', by which you mean WoP scenery. You seem to be mistaken, or as some might say...

WRONG

I'm in my fourth decade of life living in said region, I think I know what it looks like. I don't need to be a pilot to know how green the grass is!

I have been flying for longer than four decades and the colours in CoD look very in keeping with the very familiar scene fixed in my minds eye over the course of those decades. Southern England in early summer is bright and vibrant.

If you want reality, go learn to fly, there is no substitute for it.

I believe this is what you flyboys call "nought feet"



I would suggest in your 40+ years of flying England never looked like this, perhaps your eyesight (and brainpower) are failing. There are pictures on the thread, grandad.

I have neither the time nor the disposable income for a pilot's license, nor for that matter a time machine to fly in WW2, hence why I play flight sims. It is not a particularly difficult concept to grasp really is it? I don't expect perfection but I do expect a reasonable simulacra of a landscape I am somewhat familiar with; given today's immense computing power I don't see why this isn't possible.

David, colours aside, is the layout of everything in CloD's terrain superior to WoP? And if so, why in your opinion? I like how you only answer the posts where you feel you will appear 'correct'.

Actually, looking at vegetation from abowe is not the same as looking at it from ground level. I've flown quite a bit, and being a landscape ecologist I usually take the oportunity to study landscapes from the plane window. I'm not saying that CoD is more or less realistic looking (lack of hedgerows has been mentioned), only that a ground perspective is not necessarily representative of how things look from above.
