Zapa if you're really that hung up on dots quit playing online. This is a moot issue that no one on earth can do anything about. Way to many variables, and continuing to beat the dead horse will do nothing to make the problem go away. Every game where there is competition there will be people that will do unscrupulous things in game to make their small lives feel more important.

Stuka LOD 2/3
With a resolution of 800x600 or lower these are like flying bricks with lower settings. |

It's just like real war - better equipment wins(usually). You feel you get an advantage by using a 60" screen @800*600 - go for it. |

Please could you start a seperate topic on this? I keep coming back to this topic expecting a different discussion. Don't get me wrong, it's very interesting, but there's such a wealth of information here, it'd be sad to see it get lost once a new update comes.
I have to say, I am marvelling at Zaps research into this! top notch stuff. |

But I have to say, Swiss, the reason I dump cash I can't afford into peripherals for the game is to boost my sense of immersion and involvement in flight and WWII air combat. Honestly, nothing competitive - just to have a good time! (Which is why I'd never lower my screen resolution - talk about cutting off you nose to spite your face!, and probably why I'm generally canon-fodder or "bait" for my squadron mates!). [Edit: And I agree with you, Flyingblind - from what I've taken from the updates, hopefully glints and reflections from targets will make bogie-spotting - particularly those currs beneath you - much easier.] Anyway, as others have said, I feel like a seven-year-old waiting for Christmas! When I finally get a tattoo, it'll read: "Two Weeks - Be Sure". Thnx Oleg, Lutheir and the gallant 22! Last edited by No601_Swallow; 02-09-2011 at 08:28 PM. |

Raybanjocky? That's quite funny. It's like I said, i don't consider myself a "pilot". I do this for fun(I prefer eyecandy over superman x-ray view), and honestly I can't get the slightest bit of immersion sitting in front of screen, no matter what size, refreshing at 60 to 100 times a second. This is program trying to reproduce RL - but being what is it it never can, never will. Before I spend $2k on a new monitor I'll rather get a bigger TV or so, things you can use in RL - with friends and such... However, if someone decides to go the highend this route, I'm fine with it and wouldn't feel disadvantaged at all. But even if you have a $20k system, you can be sure one day you'll meet the young Russian equipped with a 17" CRT and a shitty PC who's gonna whoop your a$$ really bad. Unless you can surprise him(which is not the issue here, as everybody can spot the enemy at 3k) - it will always end in dogfight - the extra 1k visibility come in really handy here, right? ![]() Last edited by swiss; 02-09-2011 at 09:51 PM. |
