Honestly, if it was up to me i would do a bit of both. I would like having a 3rd party industry around CoD to give it exposure, but i'd limit that to single player content.
What i wouldn't support is a situation where 3rd party payware becomes a standard for online gameplay.
You might have a 1000 dollars in add-ons, but the majority won't and if it becomes necessary to have as much as half that before going online, then the online aspect will gradually wither and die. The reason FSX flourishes is that add-ons are completely optional and up to the player

So, i would mix a bit of what both you and Tomcat are saying so that the biggest amount of people have the most amount of options available to them. Otherwise we just end up ostracizing one part of the community in favor of another and things go downhill.

P.S. As for the clouds, the default FSX clouds are 3D. The REX clouds are 2D photos
I just watched the video on the REX site, I noticed that in the whole video it never showed the plane flying into the heavy clouds, also need to take account of the lack of a realistic FM and DM in FSX which leaves more cpu cycles for other things, just give CoD time and I'm sure they will get most of the goodies working, just as was done with ROF, although ROF has payware, the sims themselves barely cost more than 1 FSX add on so we should appreciate the work that has been done with a lot less dollars and a lot less cost for the buyer.
