Anyone else seem to notice themselves going into blackouts when pulling G's seeming to come on faster?

And the Blackout tunnel seems to be gone also. Im going straight to blackout as opposed to getting that tunnel effect

Spits had a G related problem. 109s have it too, but it wasn't "fixed" becuase it's not ripping wings off like the spits were. I consider it a minor bug.

Drediock, the lack of tunnelvision blackout often happens when you have installed a new version without restarting the computer.

Always solved my problem by restarting computer.

Haven't noticed blackouts anything different with the blackouts myself.

Tracking the "G tunnel" when you are  saddled-up, in-close can mean more rate of turn relative to a defender who is manageing his g-loading poorly.
Important "G-onset" cue.

I'll watch for this, Dred.
This would be a major bug.

I've noticed it in the 109s and 110s but only when pulling extremely hard and utilizing full up elevator trim while trying to vultch TC as he's landing.  it's happened a lot that way. :D

LOL, yeah but you didn't experience it when you used a power dive then zoomed and roped me out over the water, so you should attribute your black out for being greedy to add another TC pelt to your collection ;)

I haven't posted in the bug forum yet, as I wasn't sure if it was really an issue, but I've been blacking out like mad in the spits and 109K. I also get the tunnel vision, but occasionally it starts from the center, instead of creeping in from the peripheral. One moment, I'm entering a turn, the next, I'm looking at a big black dinner plate in the center of the screen, with unrestricted vision around the perimeter.

ok rebooted gave me the tunnel vision back but its still seems to black out faster then it used to.

I havent flown anything but the 109F and G14 since newest version came out.
So I cant really say about the others

TequilaChaser, You ever see me in a spit cept for MAYBE a rare appearence in a scenareo, you have my permission to put a bullet in my head to put me out of my misery LOL

Drediock doesnt fly spits :cool:
