Plainsman,

I am going to check WOP out but you might want to check out EAW again. The dev crew have made some big steps in improving the old game. Even have some of the 7217 errors fixed.

One thing that brings the game to life is some ground movement and buildings and trees in the right scale. I hope WOP does this well.

I agree with the points.

I am looking forward to WOP because the terrain might be a large step forward. This has a lot to do with immersion as you often don't see the outside of the planes when flying.

One thing that WW2 Fighters had was radio chatter and communication that was directed to me, the one flying the mission. Having somebody giving commands and instructing on waypoints etc... really makes it seem like you are in an environment.

Il2 just needs to add this dimension for me to like it more. It sounds cheap, but I think we still need the "game" aspect somewhere in the mix.

You might as well make love to an inflatable doll.
Immersion would go like this: she's very attractive but not "technically" perfect. But she's a hot tamale. Smiling, writhing, wrestling, talking a blue streak. Nails across your back. Ride 'em cowboy. She's exciting! You can't get enough. You come back over and over again. Her few physical flaws don't matter. In fact, a flaw or two gives her character. She's interesting. A keeper.

He he well said and good to understand. You should post that on 1C forums...
And yes hopefully WoP have a good immersion level.
