Visible airscrew disc

[4./JG53_Wotan]

Some things in these games are just over exaggerated. The prop effects in CLoD are one of them. Its seems that effects like these are created by folks who have never spent any time around real life aircraft. There is a reason spinners and props are painted on some aircraft - to give a visual cue when spinning. Walking into a spinning prop is a real danger and has killed and maimed more then a few. For example:

Texas Model Has 'Long Road to Recovery' After Walking Into Plane Propeller

Another thing that bugs me about these games is the some of the sound effects - like hearing another plane near or behind you. But whatever it is a game...

sad story to read...

Regarding the spinning effect, CoD seems to have been modified according to the usual chorus of experts here claiming that other games (WoP/RoF ?) had a "better effect".

Just like the moving head inside the cockpit and plenty others.

What about GA planes and casual flight? Well it depends of the light of the day but You clearly see the prop disc in front of you.

I like the spinning prop effect. That, and following tracer to its source are about the only reliable ways of locating aircraft that are climbing up on your low 6 o'clock position.

Sometimes you have to wonder whether the Dev. team actually tried the game before they released it on an unsuspecting public.......
