Change the Icons

Hey Nopoop! We agree on something!!!  I remember being in that WB HA, and having to scour Europe to find the one other guy that was in there. Finally shot him, so he got the hump and left.

Leave the icons alone. For me, No icons = account cancellation. It's that simple, for reasons that have been covered above. I can't shoot that which I cannot see.

The couple of times I dropped in, I hadn't a clue what that slapping sound in my headphones was...

They had to have real sore backs..

Turn the resolution down. Dots get bigger and easier to see. :)

At "inifite" resolution like IRL they get even smaller than at high res in game. Consequence: Spotting aircraft (and especially GVs) is a lot more difficult than IRL even without icons.

A classic quote from those who equate difficulty to realism in this thread on AGW:

"ICONS ARE FOR THE WEAK!"

:rolleyes:

Along with the classic defense of poor numbers:

"As an old hat at the HA you know it doesn't take many to have a good time in there"

:D
