lol.

yup i have real trouble shooting down enemies....



for the record, the vid that Mysticpuma linked I used 5dof a lot for sure, quite often in it i moved a little bit closer in to see around the cockpit framing, but JAMF is right, i didn't use the vertical head position really, but only because i didn't need to in that plane. Bit different in something like a p38 though....

there only on for the vids sake.

if you can show me a way to get better (less) compression on youtube so that planes don't disappear on vids uploaded to it and stay as visible as on my original fraps rip, I'm all for turning them off.

thought not.

Against the AI the 6DOF is perfectly OK. As is Fruitbat's flying.

Although I'm not sure sometimes, Toad is 100% human.

He makes some needless moves... And some that dont work against real people that well. Everyone makes mistakes.

Which is a good point... even if somewhat misapplied in this case.. Having 6DoF or competing against someone that has it when you don't is not a cut & dried issue.. If a person is not a good pilot or competing a against a better one having 6DoF is not an end all answer to victory, which is sometimes why I think so many people who either can't afford or are just too cheap to buy a TIR think.. (because let's face it.. if TIR was $50 just about everyone else would have one.. as it is now.. just about everyone has one... or some free equvivalent)

Even against a live pilot 6DoF is fine...
