Hehe ... it seems to me that you have missed what my vulgar (
)cousin from across the pond is saying Macchi, which is this:
Unless the decent 3D graphics is supported by a decent physics engine, it is for all intents and purposes useless from a flight simmers point of view.
I agree with him. Given an ultimatum, I would prefer to be 'flying' stick graphics with an awesome physics engine, rather than flying an incredibly detailed graphical simulation with a StarWars physics engine.
There is also the possibility in the witty one liner, an insinuation that WBIII has a 'lovely physics model'. However, we won't know for sure if that is what he is insinuating, because the statement leaves those shades of meaning deliberately vague while sounding rhetorical.
Of course these days we are approaching a reasonable compromise for both physics and graphics
.
Fishu, you basically restated cuz' Vulcan's comment ... akin to saying 'yes, but it's not black and therefore it's white' after cuz said 'it's white therefore it isn't black'.
I apologize for intruding on this thread, but it pains me when 'furriners' don't get the gist of what our Kiwi cousins are trying to elucidate. They are afterall inhabitants of my backyard
