hiya ivan,
thanks for comparing a real life experience, and posting your information
regretfully, as i am sure you already know, both recording video and taking digital images will only partially represent visually what it would look like with the naked eye in real life (in this case it will probably over represent what the prop blur looks like). even with the blur effect captured, it is nothing like the unpleasant visual effect we have now and the degree of distraction caused by the severe flashing strobe effect which is in CoD since the last patch
can you please comment if in your experience with prop planes, is there a constant heavy blurring of your forward vision with a strobe like flickering of light/dark in your forward visual field like they have currently created in CoD since the latest patch,
or do you barely notice the prop spin under most normal flying conditions (as has been my personal experience over many years, and as was modeled in previous versions of il2 and CoD).
we all can agree there is SOME very mild indication there is a prop spinning in front of us, but in the same way you dont tell a learner-driver to "watch the windscreen" while driving (and they are not "distracted by the windscreen" during normal driving conditions), once with a prop aircraft you are under normal flight conditions (and no extreme light/sun effects),
the prop should be barely visible and should not be experienced as a constant severe and uncomfortable strobe like device stuck to your forehead
ps: beautiful aircraft there you lucky son of a gun, and is that the blue mountains area ?
