however my last post was not made with the aim of making you feel that way...just to make you think....you see I find it rather obscene that you would consider something so trivial so important...you’re a very lucky man (maybe) if you consider the modelling of a computer generated spitfire as a serious issues....it would indicate you've lead a relatively comfortable life so far. 3 billion people on this planet don't have the luxury of pontifcating the finer points of spitfire versions....they're more concerned with the basics like clean water or their next meal....please keep a sense of perspective regarding this game. Oh one last point... no I’m not a genius, thx for the complement tho :) edit:@ BOBC having read your last forum post, I see your original comment was meant with the best of intentions rather than a nitpicking episode. I appologise if my response seemed curt or rude....I hope Oleg gets an opportunity to read your post and take on board the points you've made. |

Yep - and we won't be able to change this within the 100yrs, no matter what amount of money we send there. The problem is bit more complex. In fact I think i have a model to solve the problem - but unfortunately it can't be realized for ethical and political reasons - and therefore I just don't give a crap about it. Sorry. |

Some can see this is simple factual info and backed up with a long list in what is a small cockpit space so making a notable change. Others are by the nature of their replies arcaders and not caring so much for Olegs aims, and some have a foot in both camps, thats human nature and all are allowed their take on what they want from it, though for arcaders to see it released to their standard at the expense of others missing out on what they had hoped for is an area of debate no doubt. The arcaders are no doubt frustrated that they havent had a chance to play by now, but for those awaiting what promises to be above that level, an accurate representation of the Battle of Britain, they are prepared to wait for such. To that end I personally would like to see a Mk1 cockpit and from feedback others would also. Oleg must decide though at what point he stops. It would appear he has surpassed the arcader level and is holding out to achieve far higher goals. I would dare to say the degree of accuracy and time spent on a subject should be proportional to the importance and standing of that subject with perhaps a baseline of criteria to ensure all modelled items are to a certain level of accuracy and artmanship. (have I just invented a new word :-) ) so the spitfire would require more attention and need to represent a Mk1. BOBC |
BOBC,
I'd like to add my support to your argument. Your request is perfectly reasonable given what the sim is trying to achieve. I've spent much time flying later model Spits in IL2 and was looking forward to seeing and feeling the difference of the early marks. A generic Spit cockpit will simply fail to impress many of us, especially since the early manual is included in the collectors edition. I do have faith that Oleg will deliver at some point though. |
I too would prefer the historically correct pits, as far as they exist as such. But I don't see how this makes the difference between "arcade" and "realistic". Same for the people who can live with such inaccuracies.
We've had some people pointing out inaccuracies in the past, and many of them have already been fixed. With 2 months before release this one certainly won't though. |
-The best way to contact Oleg is when he is certain to be home...say at 2 o'clock in the morning.
-A personal visit will make a much better impression. -Make sure you explain very carefully that his Spitfire model is wrong, wrong, wrong, and that you certainly have a great understanding of his misgivings. :-) |
