Just because you can't imagine it there is no reason to do it?
Anyway, its the dreamers which make the world a better place, not the nay-sayers.

Im not a very negative person , just this particular subject keeps popping up and its quite hilarious how people can even remotely believe in it ,
with the current tech/devtime/moneyissues/ it's just not practical, fun, rewarding or possible.

Cut it down and you've something like Arma , a watered down Combined sim on a smaller scale, that's where we are at in possible projects atm.
Maybe it's because I work with hardware, software daily, and spend time with games on a regular basis that i can't help but notice your dreams.

Dreaming is good, have faith.. but sometimes you can also use a realistic smack and get back down to earth.
We will have space travel capabilities one day as well, not tomorrow but right now it remains a dream even if it's physically possible..

What's in development is a game engine, not just a game. The more games based on a given engine, the greater the return. Large portions of the codebase from SoW would be useful for such a sim. Fully-featured aircraft AI wouldn't hurt either.

An early demo vid of SoW featured a Halftrack with very realistic looking suspension running over rough ground. There are also other indications that vehicle modelling has been taken into account from an early stage.
