Sorry esmiol, it was thought that people who enjoyed CloD and WW2 flight sims, may actually be interested to hear of other software that they can enjoy?

I mean FRAPS isn't a piece of flight sim software but it gets talked about? Do we really have to be so blinkered?

Cheers, MP

Also there will be 6-DoF so just lean a little to the left

Thanks for the clarification. I'm sure having a visible pilot will make your already excellent videos even better.

I've got a Track IR which I bought to enhance my immersion into the game. Even with a Track IR I would be flying with the pilot off.

I don't fly with my hand on the Throttle all the time, I access the keyboard and flick switches on my home brew controls panel. Frankly, having to look around my own hand, or having to watch an animation of a zombie hand go through the motions of flicking a switch after I've already done it would kill it for me.

Cheers!

I downloaded the benchmark, and I realize this a DX9 benchmark but the graphics are poor for even DX9. It should look alot better when they enable DX10 or higher. I'm also concerned about the size of the maps especially when the developer said they don't think larger maps are needed. I know the size of the BOB map in WOP is totally useless for quality game play.

I can't imagine anyone who likes simulations wants to fly using the mouse and keyboard. That's what's supported by this game. Ymmv, of course.

But all CloD pilots fly using Mouse and Keyboard + Joystick, Pedals, TrackIR? Fortunately World of Planes supports all of these too win,win,win,win situation

Seriously I may have argued which sim was more realistic ten years ago , but I’ve got too much grey hair for that now. Grown men playing with computer generated mass market planes convinced it’s realistic………..don’t think so.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.

From the Q&A of gaijin:

Quote:
Q: ... Will Arcade players fly with the same FMs? Will Arcade players be able to fly without joysticks?

A: ... Of course it's better to have a joystick, because it's much better to fly with it. But it will still be possible to fly with keyboard and mouse only. The mouse is not such a bad controller and quite precise, preferably the three button ones. .... Recently I've been only playing with mouse and keyboard.
Not a sim in my eyes and absolutly not comparable to CoD. But maybe a nice game, who knows?
