It's kinda like showing an F1 game to an F1 Driver I suppose.. They're probably thinking... pah, nothing like it!
I actually liked the Veterans comment because it showed his mind still worked on a tactical level above anything else. It shows the first thing he thought of when he saw it was about the actual practicallity of it all, not the look, but the what do you do when you are in that situation. He was never gonna say "that's the best graphics I've ever seen", was he? Anyway respect to him for showing that old men still think like young men. |
yes, one would hope the tracer coming your way was from the enemy! But my point is that in Il-2, I have flown campaigns many times where the fight develops into a wide-spread dogfight. Sometimes I shoot one enemy plane down, realise I still have a fair amount of ammo and fuel left; can see another fight going on, so I will look at the tracer to see if it's enemy or friendly. It can be really helpful sometimes.
