HT has posted the change was made to correct a long overdue oversight and that it was included to increase immersion. Further, it is the feeling of HTC that we'll become accustomed to the shaking in a few weeks and won't notice it.

"Increase immersion"? By getting headaches and eyestrain? They are right about not noticing it any more. They ruined the only part of this game that I really enjoyed. GVs. So I spend more time doing other things and less time playing Aces High. So I guess I don't notice it. As far as it ruining the accuracy, not really. Aim yes. Hard to hit what you can't see.

HTC should have researched this a bit more. From all accounts from people with actual experience, it is VERY UN-realistic. And from a health stand point, it is VERY UN-healthy.

And to all you pups that say it that will start ripping on the "eyestrain" factor of this post, I am 47 years old and it does bother my eyes to use the Ostwind on aircraft or Pintle gun on troops. For those of you that are as old if not older and it doesn't bother you, I can only wish I were that lucky.

This little "Immersion" factor was poorly thought out and poorly done. Simple as that. More like an idea thought up at the bar across the street from HTC and implimented at the last second without any real studies from varied hard core players.

this shake stuff is like anything else added to the game you will compinsate for it just takes some time

maybe if enough people whine about not liking it the fighter jocks can get off our backs about lazer guns

Maybe we will compensate for the buff guns, maybe not. I get the feeling you and 999000 make more close range shots than long range ones. It's the long range ones suffering the most.

I think there's a fair chance of compensating for pintle guns, but that's not a sure deal either. The coaxial guns on tanks just don't make sense. As far as the Ostwind is concerned, I don't think it's going to be compensated for. From what I'm seeing, it's just not going to be a popular ride.

They'll never stop whining about lazer guns as long as buff guns shoot them down.

Seriously though how many of you that don't like the headshake have LCDs.
Because it's just not that bad with a CRT.
Its not blurry with my CRT just moves a bit. If its blurring I am betting it's because of smearing with the LCDs.

19" CRT here. Bothers me a lot. About the only safe ride anymore is the goon . . . . no guns.

Yea there is vibration. but nowhere near as bad as its been described.

Did you shoot zoomed in? It's mounted on jello for me instead of a 25 ton chunk of steel.

Funny thing is they only managed to produce 44 Ostwinds,before the Ruski's overran the factory where they were made.Some of the first built were used in the Battle of the Bulge,and they done well.The Wirbelwinds didn't fare quite as well as they were harder to keep on target.They made 104 wirbelwinds,before the wars end.I wish AH would model another AA gun,like mabe the US 90 mm,to thin out the vultures.I can't hit crap in a Osti now,but I wasn't that great before.Zazens right,the bouncing around sucks.
