Suggesting to devs

It's the PS Eye, the Eye Toy was for ps2 and it's much weaker

I just bought one used for a good price, and have spent about 30 hours trying to get it to work in linux. The driver is still partly in development and works for a lot of people but not for me, I am probably going to have to compile it into the kernel which I'm not looking forward to, but compiling it as a 3rd-party module won't seem to work

But once I get the Eye working, I'll be able to capture decent video of BOP on my pc. I've made test recordings on the ps3 of pc and ps2 stuff, and it's better than I expected. The Eye is a very good webcam, 480p at 60fps with a 4-mic array.

Yes, you're right, and Sony seems to have a few things planned with that thing, plus some other tracking devices (see the threads).

Good luck with your programming!

I would first like to say that I really love this game. Thank u for every bit of it.

I often fly bombersupport in strikegames in a fighterplane, and a lot of the fights and action takes place over enemytargets. My first aim is of course enemy fighters and not the groundtargets, but the "automatic targetswitch" or whatever it is, keeps switching between groundtargets instead of enemy fighters. So do the "manual switching" I do myself on my flightstick. So I wonder... Is it possible for u guys to kind of "switch off" the ground targets for the fighterpilots? (I know this will be a problem for the fighters that carries bombs, but they may be less annoyed. Maybe... I don't know).
Now it's like I have to press switch target buttons abot 10-fifteen times before I "hit" the nearest fighter, and again is able to follow with the followcamera-view.
(I hope u understand what i am writing here. My english writing could be better, I know...)

Hello,

First I just want to say i love this game, but 2 points frustrated me:
1 can't have cockpit view with axes airplanes.
2 last but not least lol is the very big camera deadzone when using stick controler (HotasX)
Can you make something in the next update please??

For the 360 version of the game, the weapon unlock requirements are ridiculous. This is more of an achievement completionist shout out.

The game is dead online.

To ask to get 50 ground target kills with the P-51D-5? You're kidding right.

To do that legit without boosting it is impossible.

To do that by boosting is a tedious task begging to not go near these kind of games produced/published again if there ever was one created for console.

I can understand your pain, (most of) the unlock levels out of the box are ridiculous, and the lead designer admitted as much and apologised. And it doesn't help that there is little online activity.

But if you do go for some of the harder strike target kill objectives, unload your bombs on approach one time*, then fly your plane into the target at full speed. MG/Cannons also do damage, so hold those down as you fly in too. You can kill 3-5 targets per match like this with any plane - even if it doesn't have bombs...

Obviously set a high time limit, low ticket count and go for a map that doesn't have ships.

* Don't unload a second time, even though you can, because your bombs will destroy you before you can hit the target. And your plane does more damage than the bombs.

My sugestion to SOW:

1-Let SOW more opened if possible: sound files, smokes, tracers, cockpits... all you think you can, like is with the skins files.

2-Try do a new sound channel to "Fly by view sound", or let opened a way to mod communities.

3-Show more rotation(RPM) in spinner of propeller.


Thank you Oleg and Team and all the best to you in 2010!
