War is a dirty, nasty, muddy, bleak, grisly, destroyed and bloody business.
Battlefield 1942 and other games do a pretty good job of presenting battlegrounds as what they were.
All these pretty skins, green grasses, no nasty muddy airfields or aircraft that look like they've been through a durge of muke and mire are present.
I like the renders as well as anyone else, but the pristine, beautiful landscapes of IL2 don't get it. I hope the SOW really presents the war theatre as the horrible mess it really is... progressively worse surroundings as the battles play out.
I don't mind if the SOW starts out beautiful and pristine, but as the BOB progresses I would sure like to see everything turn into the mess it really was... after all bombings and battles, in the towns, on the waters, on the airbases.
If the home chain towers were bombed out... it would be appropriate they stayed bombed out for several weeks in the campaigns.
