Uhm... Just use ignore?
Anyways...
We have to remember that clodo was, is and will always be a low-budget game, with all consequences of that fact.
One of them being graphics not as good as it could be.

Vanilla il2 could get away with being a low-budget game 10 years ago, but times have changed. Games became much more complicated and nowadays if there's not enough money invested at a dev stage, the game will probably suck, unless it carries some revolutionary ideas, this one does not... or has incrediblye playability, this one does not have that either.

Erm, I would definetely not classify CoD as a low-budget game. Especially since they spent six years on development

I personally think the graphics look quite good though so I must be the odd one out, and yes, of course CoD also has repeats just like WoP does (look at the last screen I posted carefully and you should be able to see it).

Does that matter? Naw, not for me.

With further optimization hopefully more and more features will become unlocked to make it look and play better and better. (Can´t wait for the water with transparancy and a working surf myself which was hinted at).

Could you post some screenshots of the WW2 flight sim that you think CoD's graphics are "not as good as it could be"? Thanks!

Why anyone would care about Kent is beyond me.

Sussex is far superior.

langnasen, it was only a fanboy test. You are the winner.

@video
stunning! Wings of Prey isn´t a simulation like Clod, but its a very good game.

I like Mystic Pumas movies as well and think the landscape in WoP looks pretty damn fine personally. I didn't like the backlighting on the clouds but that is nitpicking.

Still think WoP is way too arcadey though

If it isn't a sim like CoD, why do WoP fanboys keep comparing it to CoD?
