In almost every other aspect though, CloD appears visually superior. The in-cockpit shots in the first video are so far from CloD's photo-realistic cockpit interiors, that it's embarrassing.

In the landscape, it appears that the trees radiate green light, making everything green. Damage model appears 1-dimensional. And the flames are just yuck.

I've just finished reading "Gun Button To Fire" by Tom Neil, a Hurricane pilot during the BoB. He writes a lot about how hard it was to spot other aircraft even a few thousand feet apart. They were regularly in the right place for an interception but went home empty handed having simply failed to spot the enemy who cruised on by a few thousand feet below.
