A lot of people(with trackIR) in this thread have given this type of reaction. You're basically saying that people without trackIR can get bent. If the current system is working for because you're using trackIR that's fine but don't come here and post about a feature you're not even using.

When you use the loosen straps function now your FOV changes which is bad because you lose situational awareness. Just remove the zoom and it's fine.

And yes I know that i can easily do this with the mouse but it's pain having to reposition my view using the mouse and it can't be done quickly.

I love the viewtype in CoD. It doesn`t feel any different from that of IL2 though the headshake makes deflection shooting something exceptional. I don`t have a problem with that. Instead of whining I just keep training, right now the thing I need is good stick settings to find that smooth lead for deflection shots.

I just hope I can change the vertical convergence of the guns - default is something I would never use.

I use a mouse on left side for my situational awareness for many years now. In COD it takes less than a second to get to line up your sight. It might feel longer to some because at the moment they need to think what to press and what to move. As many of you have said already, once you do it a few hundred times, it becomes a reflex and it WILL get faster.
I also have trackIR, you can do the same thing. Get your profile right for you, look up the pertaining keys and set them to get in and out on a cue (e.g your bandit just went left). I am much slower with the Track IR but much faster than a week ago.
It can be done, gentlemen and it is gratifying.
After all, why shouldn't the pilot that put the effort have an advantage?

PURE BULLSHIT

If you dont have track ir get free track, if you don't like free track use your mouse.

Seriously are you guys seriously telling me your too s***** to work your damned mouse, I will post a video if you want me too.



Simply hold down the middle mouse and right mouse button and this allows you to move your position along the Y plane and therefore position your head your head directly behind the gunsight..............................SIMPLE

I took me 2 seconds....

EXACTLY you hit the nail on the head, the head shaking has made life harder FOR EVERYONE.

I have track IR and the head shaking has made it harder/realistic to aim.

It's fine the way it is, and 'realistic' whether you like it or not. The Luftwafflers are always the most vociferous of complainants in sims though, even their Central Powers equivalents (who I pretty much know are by and large the exact same people lol) are now getting captured Aldis and Reflector sights in Rise of Flight. LOL! (Actually I don't care and I'm all for the field mod idea, but they do have a way of getting what they want. This time, the parties over!)

Neeeiiiiinnn, verdammt! I can't get the hang of it, its not fair! Suck it down, Kameraden. No one said it was going to be easy.

Hehehe.

The point being is that it should not require any effort at all to see the reticle on the BF-109.

Leaning to the right = not realistic.

Shift-F1 = not realistic.

Messing about with mouse = not realistic.

Centralised Revi = not realistic.

As witnessed here by the wailing and gnashing of teeth people seem to rate 'cosmetic realism' above 'functional realism'.

Visible reticle = Realistic.

You do realize the sight only reflects on the small rectangular piece of glass, not the entire cockpit Hence the angle of the small piece of glass.
