it is possible to see that there are areas of the terrain which most people predominantly agree on: the trees-placing, the lack of hedge-rows, and the style of the trees in relation to the landscape.
Hear, Hear. It's very important to the majority of posters on this issue, whether they be Britons or not. Those who are know for a fact that CoD's landscape is sadly in no way a convincing representation of England. Even people from overseas know that something is badly awry, and they are correct.
Pointing this out is not going to make Luthier and Co cry or get upset and wound their feelings as long as its done in a respectful manner (which by and large it is). They are professional sim devs and constructive criticism is their meat and drink. Criticism is important in any endevour, because like anyone else Devs are human and are not always right, or things can be improved. It is an ongoing process. Luthier is wise enough to know this.
If I wanted an opinion as to the veracity of a computer recreation of France for example, who would I ask? A Mongolian? No, that would be daft. I think I'd ask the Frenchman, and I think I would take his opinion and evaluation quite seriously. That is not to say that overseas people do not know what England looks like (in fact reading these posts most definitely do)
Please forgive me, but it does get a bit tiresome when people try to tell me what my own blinking country looks like.
I think I and others would know.
We don't need to recalibrate our monitors or any such nonsense. We have the trusty MkI eyeball with which we see it everyday. We know its not right, and that it is in need of pretty big improvement. Finito. End of story.
Constant 'OMG I LOVE YOU 1C!!!!' posts, while very nice to read for 1c I'm sure.....Actually contribute nothing whatsoever of value or utility. Pointing out things that can be improved actually do.
These are the facts of the case, M'lud.
Cheers.
