The real weather as you call it, has some issues in CFS2. As I recall it ate up the FPS and was pretty well worthless.
Yes, cloud sets but the landscape is basically archaic and you can't do a darn thing but color it.
The sounds are excellent, gotta admit. Yet, remember the sounds weren't there for several years after the initial release.
All the aircraft, is a plus... You can't do anything with the AI performance it's locked into the code.
There is no monitoring of Online gaming. The Zone when it was up was a nightmare of cheats.
The one absolute best thing about CFS2. THe misson builder was the best available for any ww2 air combat sim.
The BOB COD FMB should best it, because of programmable scripting.
We should all wait and see on things, before we conclude too much about what the BOB COD isn't or won't be.
The facts are - sounds are already availabe witnin the IL2 mods, which are equal or superior to the CFS2 sounds.
Get yourself a copy of IL2 1946 and then download one of mod packs, with sounds. You'll be astonished what has already been done.
The BOB COD developers could just use those sounds, and make life easy. Then again, taking the easy route has never been what this sim is about is it?
There are many options and an SDK is in the works for BOB COD. I suspect the developer will allow the hooks within SDK for using third party sounds.
