COD is first and foremost a flight sim. When Oleg mentioned "the limits of tech", he meant the limit how close to real life the sim could simulate FM, DM, engine management, human factors... Eye-candy only comes in second place IMO. Of course eye candy is a big thumb up, but it alone doesn't make a good sim.
Just compare IL-2 on one side with excellent simulation-part but somewhat second rate graphics, and HAWX on the other side with unparallel graphics but crappy FM. One is for people who love flying, one is for people who love being an ace without spending weeks and months to learn how to fly straight.
