True

If these games were realistic they wouldn't need the red hit indicator because one bullet would kill you.

Pretty much one missile would down your aircraft, and one tank round would send you to the respawning point.

You'd also need to complete a side mission before you jumped in your jet, that would involve 300 hours of flying time.

Or more for the helicopter.

Also beyond the scout, sniper and engineer class, they would need a truck driver, and field cook who would drive around in a truck serving hot lunches while arty screamed over your head.

Don't get me started in that you would need at least 1000 players to man your aircraft carrier and some poor nub would end up on deck 16 washing everyones streaked underwear for his first deployment.

Realism sucks.
