Who'd like to see tracking as an option when setting up a game in arcade?

The reason is because it wipes out the advantage of several planes. Mainly the Fw190's, PD51's and Me262's.

Those planes advantage came from high speed attacks from above, and if they missed the energy would have them out of range in seconds.

But with tracking, this ability is completely neutralised and therefore renders the planes next to useless even though they were the best planes of WW2.

Now I know someone will say go play sim mode, and they are not entirely incorrect, but I prefer all the fun of arcade mode, but not at the expense of limiting all battles to hurricane turning battles.

Arcade mode is the turning battle... who can turn faster is all it is, with no penalty if you get shot. Who cares about the tracker in arcade because... its arcade. I can't stand arcade anyways, its the home of the crashers in my book (the people that head for the dirt when in trouble)

Thats exactly my point, the tracking makes arcade mode a turning battle, because there is bloody great big arrow that tells you where the bad guys are, and therefore the most logical thing to do it turn in.

It also renders sneak attacks impossible as the radar and arrows give you away at 3KM.

So, even if its just in Player Matches, I recon it should be an option to turn it off so that game and incorparate all tatics rather than just turning.

If you are asking "Should hosts have the ability to force HUD settings?" then I think yes they should, I think that was Realistic could also benefit as well.

its still arcade... jk
But yea we had a take last night about how much better the game would be withouth the red box around the planes. so i would take it a step further, either way i think the tracker and arcade is crap.
