first run, fresh impressions (essentially for those waiting another week)

I had my suspicions when you said this....

even on low, the landscapes are incredible, i can't believe some folks comparing it to IL-2

But when you came out with this....

so my verdict over a very limited take on CoD is that... well IMHO this game will absolutely shape the face of video games, not only sims, in the years to came..

Damn! That's some serious lunacy.

Encore!

well thank you for your pathetic contribution. it's pretty clear you lack both the maturity and education to disagree in a polite manner.

btw even in 'low' trees look like trees and roads look like roads, unlike green pieces of paper overlayed and straight lines with sharp angles. not to mention terrain detail and diversity, or the ocean.. anyway that's just an opinion, and a POSITIVE one, in what seems a party of cry babies (maybe some expected photo-realism)

honestly i think some just can't handle the frustration of not running CoD like their halo on xbox with their >1000€/$ graphics set... ppl lower your rez, take off some detail, wait for the patches...

I am more worried about how the engine utilizes hardware. I mean graphics can be updated, so can sound. But if it has multicore problems and bad rescource managment because of using dx9 or what have you, that is the big worry. Will be interesting to see what they decide to do after they iron out the immediate performance bugs, please I hope they forget about adding new planes and work on building as better runway to launch them off
