    I don't think there should be that much cloud cover in the desert.

    Yes it looks good, but i'd prefer the texture scale to be a little smaller personally. When i look at the ground i want to see more finer detail. Just my opinion of course.

    I like it, and I think i could learn to get used to the sand texture when i'm as close as an infantry man to it.

    The sky above deserts never has clouds, this is true.

    Moon desert of ladak (tibet)

    Clouds are the place where the evaporated water goes in deserts, like everywhere else on this planet.

    I don't really think it matters that it has clouds. It looks good, and getting rid of the clouds might make it look kind of MEH. unless you got a really groovy skybox to replace it (maybe dark blue sky?)

    If there is water, there are clouds.(there is water on map..)

    I Like it. a little more polish and this'll be pretty decent.

    The map overview could use a touch-up. Maybe make the water more visible?
