F3 mode has got to go
« on: August 25, 2011, 05:45:55 PM »
Its silly how gamey a20s are in this game there isn't a real world incident ever where a medium bomber out fought a fighter. No f3 for fighters no f3 mode for anything else in MA. Lets take it back to real for a little bit and as Krusty would say a little less xbox please.

Should the A20 have f3 mode? probably not, but you being pissed off about losing a fight to one isn't a good reason to remove f3 mode from all the aircraft that have it enabled.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

The only thing I use F3 for is to look at the 3D models of my bombers as I do a long flight, so I'd miss it for that.  I don't use it to find enemy aircraft though, so that wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

I popped you twice while flying an A20 earlier today, although I got assists both times  :furious.  I don't use F3 mode.  What I did use to get you both times was this little thing we like to call an High Yo-Yo.  

If you guys didn't insist on dropping fighter hangars all the time, folks like me wouldn't have to make you look silly by killing you with A20s...   :rofl

That said, I wouldn't care if F3 mode went away either.  I just find it amusing that you feel you have to blame your failure on F3 mode.

So you lost a fight to an A20, you ASSUME he used F3 mode to beat you but you can't prove it, and thus you now say that ALL planes should have F3 view removed.

Yeah we've been over this a million times. When you invent a way for me to do the jobs of 30 men at once then we'll talk about removing F3. Until then just suck it up and accept the fact you lost and move on.

Yeah.  I would not suggest going the 'remove f3' route.  I believe you're looking for the 'A20 is overmodeled' whine.  Make sure to reference absolutely nothing factual to your screed as to why it needs to be changed.

Its amazing all of you are such purist on other threads about it didn't happen in real world. Well guess what in real world a a20 never out fought a fighter ever. Make it real for everyone.
Cobia you are a well known f3 fighter mode a20 so please just put -1 and lets go from there.

As far as the I got beat by one BS, yes I did and I've shot down many who would fight one as a fighter. My opinion on the a20 is well known. If the Il2 doesn't have it then no medium bombers at the very least should be able to access the f3 mode. Ya have the power to do the job of 30 men at the touch of a key board my friend so why not do it the way the rest of us do from yr cockpit or yr guns.

But I'm sure all you XBOX fans will disagree. :joystick:

Since it was removed from the IL-2, then it should be put into place for jeeps so I can drive into perk tanks to kill the driver
