[quote=Mentat]is that what you feel when you were playing a game?[quote]

Yes ofcourse, gamimh is what we are talking about, right ?

[quote]or is that what you are going to feel when you are in the battlefield yourself?[quote]

probably not. But be honest, no one is gonna buy a sim that gives you the same feeling as when you where in a battle field. Thats why we all try to avoid war in real life

A Simulation is the imitation of the reality which is supposed to make you feel as if you were in that situation as real as it is possible.. is it not?
To be honest: NO . I want the simulation to be fun and balanced, that is more important than realism. You want 100% realism ---> Join the navy

So when you are in the middle of a war by yourself, it does make difference if you are on the winning side or the losing one. And i am sure all your efforts will be to carry your side to the winning side.
Yes of course, but when in a specific fire fight I would not care about the war, I would be focussed on that battle, winning it, surviving it myself, not for a second I would be worried about the big picture. The whole war/big picture is for the generals and admirals.

Conclusion: A simulation should be bearing this feeling in the name of increasing realism.
No, it should not in my opinion.
