Let us please avoid the black screen in next sim.

Personally, I like the way sudden death is portrayed in the game. The shock of the sudden black screen really brings it home to you how many young aviators met their end - often by some stray bullet or random lump of flak. I think it is the duty of simulations like this to bring home the reality of war and get us thinking about the sacrifices made by that generation. The black screen followed by watching your slumped pilot spiral in makes that connection with reality, at least for me.

we are all sitting on armchairs smoking & drinking and the pilot of the I16 can fly at 7 K without fainting since the demo of IL2 ….. so please don’t bother …..

I agree, the sudden black screen is shocking. I always thought the sound should abruptly cut out too, or at least fade out, first crossing over to a high-pitch ringing.

Maybe a tunnel with a white light at the end?

The reason we haven't understood much of what you've written is because (largely due to a language barrier I'm sure) your first post was quite incoherent. What did you want to happen, anyway? It's a game, but your pilot can still be killed in the game. There's got to be some kind of downside to that other than having to refly. IMO the negative feeling you get when you're PKed is quite important.

How about an intermission sign with a floral border so we know it's time to go a get more cigarettes (or refill our pipes!) and booze, But what sort of music should be played!

I supose, for educational purposes, we should get a grainy B/W film clip from our attackers gun camera so we can learn from our mistakes!

Cheers!

I said it in another thread... the pilot head should be blobing or falling on the dash board... the image should blur and slowly darken away. A quote about that moment should be appropiate also.

Many other shooters have this effect and is acceptable.

Oh... and after dieing in a plane and shortly after crashing it shouldn't be that instant external view...

I love the BkSOD.
