Just not necessary, bit even with all other stuff, the developers at current speed will need about 2 decades to implement and fix. So, the trees are nowhere near a priority question to ask. Also Aa isnt that important. FIX MAJOR FAULTS AND ADD SOMETHING TO GENERATE IMERSION, SO THAT ALL OTHER PILOTS BUY CLOD. From my colleagues, only about 10% bought already clod. They stick with the older game, as it is currently more intersting and challenging.

no Stuberlone, for me you didnt sound arrogant at all....and all in all i can agree with your point of view, except that for me the "flying through trees bug/feature" is a MAJOR FAULT, which prevent us in many ways to enjoy the sim/game in its full potential.
just like the missing weather features, which have a very highg priority as well in my view....its supposed to be a flight sim....

the biggest problem is, that there are sooo many MAJOR FAULTS....i dont want to list them, we all know them anyway....so i can appreciate your standpoint.but still for me those missing features are really important.

EDIT: i have to correct myself...i think the biggest problem with this sim is, that it didnt advance a bit since release..they failed in every possible aspect to improve it...be it flight models, netcode,terrain,performance....
so its hard for us to cope with all those major faults anyway...but seeing that not one issue was really solved during the last 1,5years is the real puzzling thing.resulting in people having less and less expectations....in the last view months you see more and more statements like:why do we need working weather, the battle of britain was mostly sunny anyway.
thats puzzling as well,....i say, keep up the expectations and let the devs know exactly what we want and what we demand...then maybe we will one day really get a working sim....but saying that such features are not important, will do little to get those features one day.

1. ths is a sim/game not the real thing
2. when in a fight if i decide to run the tree line and take the chance to snub you into a tree. i want that option. if you can fly through trees it takes that away. as i said it makes this great sim into a mere game.
3. i know "real" pilots never did it but i'm not in "real" plane and sitting in my vp i want to take that chance. if the trees are no big deal then just delete all of em. it would really be boring looking sim/game if they were not there. my point is if this is a sim why are the damn trees just eye candy. i paid alot for this. and i can fly 1946 and what do ya know...if i hit the trees in that sim/game i crash out. just sayin it's expected from them why was this obvious stuation overlooked???

Hmpf, okay. I let it be. It is simply happening only several times in your whole pilot life and there are billions of problems, which really makes it unplayable.

So, the time you choosed to talk about that topic (although they already know that) is simply not really interesting for 99% of the pilots, as it just never happens!!!

And flying hollywood like through valleys waiting for faults of your chaser is putting a smile in my face. Normally an average pilot would never crash into trees. He will have a look over your hollywood flying actions and wait for the time to come. If you really try to practically use this tactic, you should rethink your flying method. If this chasing happens often in your case, it is also a proof, that the server is dogfight server. And even if it is ATAG, you cannot deny the fact, that it is a dogfight server with added targets to come out of this sort of server. But as long as they and other server admins do not get the right tools in hand, they all simply cannot change the fact, that online flying in this case always turns out to be dogfighting inaccurately. This is not a fight against atag, but these servers tend to get more unrealistic, than flying special coop evenings with organized briefings and teams. The gaming is simply another one. Not always better for everyone (tastes vary) , but for me just a nice flying inbetween. The real wars are fought in organized coops or other events. Especially going deeper into clod with an seow like tool would be the greatest for me personally.

I just flew one time on atag. Due to map dimensions, several things are prevented and it was more fun than many other servers in il2 in the past, but for me it is not a substitute for the immersion, created by events.

But again to topic: The developers simply wouldn't especially take care on this matter and will not answer to your claim. I am pretty sure, that other claims go first. My guess: this will be fixed earliest in the sequel. And you never know...this could take another 2 or 3 years up to current speed.

Start to insult? I had never talked of real life. In this GAME, noone would fly into trees.

I am not that nerdy... I flew about 6 hours overall in clod after setup of hotas. So, you will have played much more, but I am afraid, I would not bash back.

Just ask yourself, what you wrote in last post. That says it all to everyone of us. Simply not more to say about. You should ask yourself, if you perhaps have some more problems in real life than me as a nerd (that I am not really). Perhaps your problems in real life made you that angry? I do not judge, but just stopp reacting like a warthog mother in autumn, trying to protect its children.

Now, calm down, creme your red face and swallow down the foam in front of your mouth. Drink a beer with me and have fun with your girlfriend. That is, what I would do in your situation. Perhaps also some additional sports? Heals such irrational behaviour quite good
