Abolish 6 o'clock wiew! Poll
« on: November 05, 2001, 03:57:00 PM »
In my opinion we have in AH one of the best wiew system for a simulator, but...
who likes the dead six wiew?
We know that a monitor can't simulate the real world field of wiew, so all we agree that is important to find a compromise.
AH found a good compromise, but...

We have icons. We have inflight map. We have padlock.
Where's the SURPRISE? Surprise was the first tactic used in real world. Force us to manoeuver to look at our six, force us to fly with a wingman...
...pls ABOLISH 6'o click wiew.

Let me know your opinion about that, pls...

I dunno about you guys, but I can sit in a chair and look behind me while only turning my neck and moving my eyes.  And if I rotate at the waist I can see about 225 degrees from straight ahead.

I think we should adopt the WW2OL method. It's the most realistic view system in the world.

My vote is a big NO.

Lupo, if you like being surprised, please unmap your 6 view button and allow us to bounce you at will.  Thanks.

I'm with LUPO.

I'd like to see the dead six view taken out. Would really add to the pucker factor.

Not voting either way since I've not played it online yet ... but ...

 Wouldn't it make sense to get rid of external views first?

...or just do something with it. Being able to spin your head in circles indefinately is a lil much.  :)
Maybe leave the dead six view but make it where ya can't go past it without spinning your head the other way.

Lay off the caffine!!! Your gonna fry those last 3 Brain Cells.   :rolleyes:
A deffinate NO vote from me!!!

You must be out of your mind.  Why do you want to remove realism?
No surprise?
You have constant swivel on your stick or something?
I have surprised many a AH pilot and have been the victim of surprise.

BTW, the AH view system is the best damn view simulation I have seen yet!
I have flown a few sims and AH is by far the best. (WB3 a close 2nd, but lacking realism in speed.)

No 6 view...Find another way to get your kills!    :rolleyes:

OOOOOHHH!!! I know, lets abolish the 12 o'clock view! That will get rid of a large majority of HO's and add a REAL element of surprise!
