To me GV's have always been to hard to see. Just part of the suckage of the game. If you fly that 156 spotter plan you can see the Gv's, there not as invisible, you can make them with smoke for others to bomb.

At which time the Fi156 was introduced, I recall spotting GV's was measurably easier than it is now.

Could be the development of the tree programs increased the complexity of the each tree. 

There are three people I know of that could go right to a a GV on the first pass in a high speed fighter.  Not cheating, just gaming the game.

LOL   DUH!!! Max couldn't do VR....BROKE MY HEART!  You Sir! However.... :salute      The 190-P-51, P-47,,,,lately 110.....NOT hard to find!  :devil  IN MY RADAR, trying to kill Ord,Radar,VH......being a nuisance :aok  We haven't many run-ins of late. Kind of miss them.   Max is a Good'un!   I think VR is a major contributor into my "Magic Eyes", "lilblue" way of calling me a hack? lol    VR doesn't let you make graphic adjustments, Gamma and such.  The immersion however, NOT FAIR!  Love you fellers!

Gaming the game?  How so? Being you posted about a 'bomb hack', you have caught my curiosity.

Nailed it!   Ta-152!   It is funny how some of us know, without actually knowing, who each other are!   DLO52 and I do this stuff all the time!!!!     Eh, you aren't on 200.  I understand 100%    I posted on 200, <S> 152...out of gas..I had a feeling it was you!  Air space got busy and I was at 4 minutes when you broke contact.   Was one of the best fights I have had in MONTHS!!!!   Snuggie in hi 190-5 holds the title but this tussle was VERY CLOSE Second!!!   :rock  :salute   I was hoping you would make it home!  Alas, it wasn't to be.   I was however, quick to salute! HeHeHe!   I even told Dieter, "That was Dadtllca!", I checked the roster..."Yes! It is Dadtllca"   10 minutes later...when you were killed and I was credited, Dieter was "Par?  How do you do that?"  :rofl Gotta love it, this game!

Hunting Spits were ye?   :uhoh    Seems you jumped a "Sicpuppies/Reaper" mission!!!!   :x  I would have been in a P-51d.   What were you in?   I remember a 190 diving through, with an F-4u as support. The 190 made a VERY TOO CLOSE for comfort shooting pass, couldn't believe I wasn't mangled...and I got a few "hits/sprites" on the over shoot. I distinctly remember commenting, "Opps he gonna need that landing gear!" as I watched it float down for 4 or 5 seconds.  :neener:   Had to break into the F-4u and got some "hits/sprites" on the head-on.  I think there were 2 Spits in that mission? Deadman and AADecoy? I remember blowing up a P-47 on Deadmans 6...but IIR that was Lefty?   We ran about 4 missions and they all run together lol. I was more than likely a P-51.   HMM,   unless it was the mission after I discoed and rushed back in a heavy Spit16?      Whatever.......AWESOME FUN ONE :cheers:

I don’t remember what I was flying was either a 47M or probably a 152.

When I left, there was a nice big scrum going on, but by the time I got there, it was just me versus the Bish, lots of them!! I remember tossing a few at a 51 I think. However, it all check out you got to kill. I’m coming to collect!  :joystick:
