I certainly wouldn't be disappointed with this quality of renderings, because most of the time you are not at those low altitudes. The Battle of Britain was an air war, and the initial engagements were at pretty high altitudes.
One thing I like. It appears that the SOW will have largely populated cities, busy docks and such pre-configured in the application. This will save a great deal of work, not having to place the objects through the FMB.
I know I could enjoy what I see right now very much. I can wait for the addons that follow, which can include further graphic improvements. The open architecture of the SOW should allow for some real nice 3rd party addons, including maps.
I didn't mention it before, but the 1920 x 1080 is a standard resolution for HDTV, just for some readers who don't know it. We will be able to hook up to out big screen tvs with SOW and have a full screen blast. This is good, hopefully Oleg has planned for even more improved video screen resolutions that will be released over time.
