If Anton said "There are german cockpits in game for the following planes" I would believe him.

As he just spend a time here reading threads on other subjects and ignoring us again I suppose we have to live with the fact of having been treated like fools for the last weeks, at least concerning the cockpit thing.

Signing out,

Cheers mates

I have to say I'm extremely disappointed. What an extraordinary and crucial ommision , and one that has shattered my expectations and enthusiasm for the game.

I am really shocked that people would not buy the game if some cockpit views were missing. I'm not passing judgment as I respect personal opinions but it seems to me like cutting off the nose to spite the face. Maybe I just don't understand how passionate some people are about certain aircraft. Maybe flying different planes will help develop appreciation for other aircraft.

More than just preference it's an imbalance in the MP portion of the game. If in sim-settings one plane has about 60% of the view eliminated by the plane's interior and other dude has a completely clear field of view...Who do you think has an immediate advantage?

That the Bf109's are some of the war's most iconic aircraft.

I appreciate other aircraft all right, I appreciate their weaknesses relative to a Bf109.

Seriously though, this is really going to mess up Sim mode online.

Dont forget everyone can use virtual cockpit, but yea it DOES make it less SIM

is a cockpit a possibility for dlc?

I'm amazed about the 109 ommission seeing as you only have to look at literature and other media to see a SERIOUSLY fanatical fanbase of this plane...
but then maybe I shouldn't be...if cockpits are potentially dlc then its just another cash cow...

All MASSIVE speculation I know but I'm beginning to think enthusiasm for a game is being interpreted as " lets milk 'em" by the publishers...

and there's me thinking MW2 was going to be bad for "double-dipping" punters

I had not considered this element. That alone might make a person choose a plane without a cockpit as there would be a clear advantage. I also didn't know that the Me109 was so popular (same as a Bf109 right?). I can't imagine a missing cockpit for a P-51. If the cockpit is offered for sale as DLC I will buy it, but I would hope that the devs didn't do this on purpose.
Considering Anton has been very open to ideas and sharing his knowledge up until this issue, has anyone considered that he may be just letting us squirm for fun and that the retail game actually DOES have all the cockpits?
