You do realize that smoke and fire effects like you are asking for would grind most computers to a standstill, yes?

HSFX 7 has "improved" (more and larger) smoke and fire effects, (no where near like real life though) and everyone I know has had to turn down some settings to maintain acceptable frame rates. (usually anti aliasing needs to come down).

Computer "gaming" is still a world of compromise for developers. There are lots of things that have to be balanced to give a good overall experience.
Do you not think that they would give us these things if they could?
