CoD vs some other sims that model Kent?

There are some great pics in this thread! Keep it going please I play all the games in this thread and like each one for what it is.....

Big-Pickle: aye, I remember there being some comment regarding hedgerows, but then again, a lot of things were said in those development threads.
The team must have a massive list of features which can be added or improved, and rumours are that many features are there, but haven't been completed by the team for inclusion in the sim....(or are there, but haven't been unlocked yet)

ideally, development would be thus:
-bugs are fixed so the game is nice and smooth
-features are improved
-the team announces new features, or present features which have been drastically changed e.g a new weather system, with realistic clouds (yes Dutch! the clouds are rather poor afterall )

-once the game has been improved to a level where it is rather awesome, tools can then be sent out to the community for an administered modding effort, or a community modding effort which won't affect online play (with the banning system in place, a modding community like SAS could propser nicely).

hopefully this would enable the game to work it's way to becoming a stand-out BoB simulator.

You are a frog-botherer!

@ David Hayward, do you own IL2 Cliffs of Dover?

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.

Looks good to me, I still hold a class 1 medical so have reasonable faith in my AME's judgement that I am of sound mind and eyesight. I think we should at this point agree to disagree.

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'.

I'm not as familiar with the layout as I am with colors and lighting. I would not be surprised if WoP has a more realistic layout because it has the advantage of a smaller map. Realism is much easier to do in small samples.

It would be silly for me to answer posts for which I thought I would appear to be wrong.
