Dunno about you specifically, but I`m surprised that people even accept the obvious taunt about WoP being better. So far only thin we know about it is what we saw. And we saw some nice, outdated, but nice graphics.

Even if WoP had nicer graphics, it still wouldn`t change a thing. In sim department, Cliffs of Dover is a different quality class overall.

Why you need to argue about graphics is beyond me.

Oh ok. I see what you mean. I just logged on and saw that video and the comment that it was competition for CoD. I don't get much time to look through the forum so I didn't see where all this originated. I work full time, the wife is in afghanistan with the war and I'm looking after the two kids. Probably good in a way or I'll be on here every minute of the day lol.
Sorry carguy that you thought I was jumping in on some argument about graphics.

Wow, yet another example of speculation being stated as fact!
Whilst one can guess that WoP won't be equal to CloD in simulation terms, there is no tangible evidence to suggest this at all. What can history show? If we went by history, we'd have imagined that CloD would have been the holy grail of flight-sims.

And previously in this topic you said: "But IF you look for graphics only, WoP might be your game" which clearly contrasts your most recent speculation that WoP's graphics are outdated. Make your mind up man!

Speculation about WoP, yes. About CloD, no.

No contrast here, unless you`re single-minded. Graphics being outdated obviously don`t turn some people from promoting it as "better" than CloD. It is a matter of taste. It is clearly visible that WoP uses a different color palette, makes some things less-detailed (like the cockpits) and some things more detailed (like the landscape). Obviously some people find it enough of a reason to speculate about WoP being "better" than CloD overall. By now all we can say about WoP is that it can be pretty to some, especially those who can`t live without posting daily something negative about CloD`s landscape.

So if that eye-candy of a beta game suits you more than any other spect of CloD, it`s your kind of game.
