We must be playing completely different games, because WoT models are far less detailed than IL2COD, same goes for the terrain, (all of which can be built in the FMB - embankments, roads, bridges, towns, etc.,etc.,etc.)
WoT is based upon a money making system. Sure the game is free, but when you hop in your tier 5 tank and get into matches with tier IX's/X's you are only there to be fodder.
In WoT you are limited to the amount of players, you are limited to the maps, you are limited to basically everything that WoT or their service is providing. All you do is play on their servers and roll the dice.
With IL2COD, you can create any sort of mission you want on any piece of map that's in the game. You can make the scenario as big or as small as you want. And then to top it off, you can respawn and not have to pay some abysmal credit repair charge to fix your tank after matchmaker raped you time and time again.
When this comes to fruition, there's no way I'll ever play WoT again. No more stupid icons, repair kits that magically fix your tracks in 1 second, camo netting that makes you invisible, radar, etc.,etc., I could go on forever. But WoT really sucks as any sort of a tank game. With IL2COD the options/scenarios, or well, any aspect of it can be user created.
When some tankers get their hands on an SDK and then realize that they'll have the tools to create w/e they want, in w/e environment they want, on their own server, in their own missions (from arcade to archaic
) I think this portion of the game will explode on it's own. It's not like you have to have a server up that uses airplanes. I predict plenty of "ground only" servers popping up.
This will be awesome. But again, this won't be handed to anyone on a silver platter. Missions will have to be made, scenarios designed etc., but I'm sure there's more than a few people out there, like me, drooling at the mouth, anxious to get my hands on it.
