Default Could 6-DoF ever be available in 4.2 if players could forgive small Graphics issues

I'm just asking if this option could ever be considered for a future patch, if the community could forgive slight issues with graphics sometimes not being perfect?

Currently there are many switches available for options to be turned on and off in the game and I wonder if it would be possible to add a switch enabling 6-DoF, thereby giving the user the option of whether they want to choose the 6-DoF option and maybe put up with a few minor Graphic issues, or whether they leave the switch off and then keep the POV as it currently is?

I'm only putting out there the consideration that 6-DoF is possible, but there may be the occasional Graphics issue that I can appreciate the absolute purists will want, but some of us actually enjoy the experience of flying an aircraft and to have a choice for the User of the Sim to switch it on or off would be IMHO a welcome offering in a future patch?

Look here as-well to see Bearcat's post at the Ubi Forums;

Oh it's more than possible to add it in.

The thing is Oleg doesn't want it in. Mostly artistic reasons because of unfinished polys and such but in some planes I think you can see through parts of the cockpit for an unfair advantage I guess.

I pretty much stick to offline anyway until CoD comes out so I use 4.09 with the 6DOF mod.

Would be nice if it went official but I can't see that happening.

See, that's my point, it would be a user choice whether it was turned on, rather than just saying....it is possible (we know it is), but sorry you don't have a choice.

Just asking if we could have a choice really in the difficult switch menu perhaps? Just a switch on or off to enable it?

Cheers, MP

voted no.

Without a massive changes in a lot of stuff in the game 6 dof is unreliable. Even on modpacks very few, next to noone as 100% functioanl 6dof, and we all now the poly counts on those pits, who look awsome, are behond TD limitations.

I think this is why I made the suggestion that a switch in the Graphics/Difficulty would allow each individual their own choice as to whether they want the option. Strangely, if the poll has a higher 'Yes' rating it would indicate it would be welcome, but even if it is 50/50 that's exactly what a switch option woukd give, either half would switch it on and half would switch it off. Cheers, MP

Now we gona see how many, who have a tracking device. Or dont know how to set it up It´s only natural to vote yes, if you have one and know how to use it. I dont think the grafik is a big issus compair to whatyou get from 6DOF in my own humble opinion. Thats why I ALLWAYS fly with mods and would not dream of going back to the stock ones. It feels so wrong to having a frame blocking your view and cant move your head.

That really is some noble thinking Mysticpuma, but I think most people would recognise straight up that the cries of "developer's dodgy graphics" would ring loud after a while "developer releases half baked product", etc, etc

Pointless argument regards adavantage/merits, anyone who wants 6DOF just adds it anyway.

I don't think that adding features with known, correctable bugs without any intention of fixing said bugs is a professional thing to do.

I'm glad 1C avoids doing that kind of thing. We would have a poor game if they did that often.
