lol, thank you

What are you really asking for? Are the arena settings incorrect? Is the farther F5 external pan locked in too close? Please, be specific.

Sorry, in AHIII the F3 view is automatically leveled when you are flying, and it becomes really disorienting if you are trying to shoot backwards in an AR-234 because the camera flops all over the place. In AHII the F3 view was fixed level with the wings, the same way the view changes in the standard F1 view.

Ah, yes I had noticed that, except I like it!

same here cause it allows me to look around using TrackIR when taxiing

Hopefully this problem will be fixed with the AR-234B update. :D

There are other books making different claims as you know.

Yes and I have proven that they are wrong. The one book you hold onto in particular that has Brown commentary that he makes no mention of any defensive armament & has a cutaway drawing with guns that he did not draw. I have found every AR-234B that Brown was involved with and have photos of all of them & none have rear facing guns.
The book that is quoted above was printed in 2015 not 30 or more years ago.
So find me the ones he flew or had anything to do with that had rear guns. You already contacted the National Air and Space Museum at the Smithsonian.
They gave you the same letter that I have.
What do you know that a museum of that stature has wrong?

If this game was about 100% historical accuracy, then we wouldn't have Lancasters escorted by La-7s and Bf-109s being shot down by Zeros and 51s. I don't mind bending history a little to make the game a little more fun...

Don't need to bend history at all when it comes to the AR-234B and having fun with armed versions.

We already allow 100% throttle in formations, everyone who have flown in formation know it's practically impossible,
and so is 4g+ turnfight in a bomber with full bombload (A20).
-
save, you're okay with mounting guns on a plane that never had them? Then why not put cannons on an Allison powered P-51? That would make the game a lot more fun for me, especially when I see Arados.

It would only be a historical inaccuracy if we were trying to re-create WW2 with AH3. We're not, all we're doing in AH3 is using WW2 aircraft/vehicles to simulate aerial combat in our own little war over some wayward sheep.

And there lies the problem, shooting in F3 mode. F3 view should limited to view only. No shooting. No flying.

I resent that remark, our sheep are NOT wayward.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. The appeal to authority is a false logic.
Brown's experience with the Arado went beyond his flight testing of a few models.
I've said you make a good case but it's not conclusive.

We have photos.

That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read.
It's like saying a positive is the equivalent of two negatives. It's tripe!

Enough with the Batman show logic. :headscratch:

The Ar234 was fine just like it was in AcesHigh II ! ==<--O--O-->==

that is probably exactly why the F3 view was changed and I like it

In the world of make believe yes.

It was modified for external flying with mouse command mode. The option was put in to use it like the old method 2 patches ago.

There has been no evidence that the guns were ever mounted. You argue that because they could have been mounted that they must have been.
That's backwards. The Ar234 should not have guns, unless those guns point forward. The Ar234 actually had forward firing guns, and did use them. We have actual evidence of that.

Straw man fallacy. Do you need a link?

Dude, F3 helps you think......ouside the box; ,AH3 sux without F3, :neener:
i'm claustrophobic , drink few beers while playing and get dizzy in close spaces;
dead game boring, bring back AH2, F3 and Il2, i would pay double monthly fee, was fun, worth $, , who cares about bs excessive realism , it's still a game;
-
New F3 mode is good IMO...gets rid of a lot of gamey play.

A20 should join IL2s for F3 mode nerf....both are too easy to use against fighters.
-

Which one exactly, considering you can simply set F3 mode to work just like it did in AH2?
-

Just the facts, not psycho-babble.

I prefer the new F3 mode, it's more realistic because it works the same now as it did during the war.

Wait....what? I've gone in F3 mode but it acts more like chase mode...how do you switch it back?

View options then 'No roll external view'

Get rid of that or get rid of F3 mode for A20s except look back and back up IMO...a20s are too easy compared to their other counterparts B25H and such.

damn I didn't know about the no-roll view..plz nerf

Why?

Why?
my bad I tried the option it didn't change much, you can keep it as is
-
View options then 'No roll external view'
Just to clarify this:
You find this external view setting under Options > Preferences > View Options.
If you want external view like it was in AH II, make sure the No Roll External View option is unchecked. This rolls the camera with your aircraft, which is a bit more like sitting in the cockpit; when you roll, your view rolls with you. Again, this was the default in AHII.
If you prefer external view to operate like some other games (i.e. WT), where the terrain remains level and your aircraft rolls relative to that view, then you want No Roll External View checked. This will likely be easier for players who learned to fly in external mode or in other games where that view is common, which is likely why the option (choice) was added to the game.
In either case, the camera is pointed in whatever direction you are looking, it just changes whether the camera rolls with your plane or does not roll and remains level with the terrain.
Hope this helps clarify the differences.

Once again FLS, there is no evidence. Show us the evidence!

In AH2 the F3 mode would put you behind the plane and centered with the wings and fuselage.
In AH3 it puts you behind and what feels like 25 feet above the center.

My point is when I see a A234 set, which happens once every month or so it's negligible compared what you do every day with a bomber set in the arenas.
A 100% throttle in formation is close to impossible IRL. A bomber killer like the Bf110g can't just catch them in the arena (or scenarios), ie they are useless in the role they where intended for.
I see Split-S's in a Lancasters, A20s doing incredible stunts- including hard-G dogfighting with bombs.
If I would see a P51 with 4 cannons once every month - maybe I would not care that much.
If the arena would be full of 150 octane cannon-P51s I would care so much I would probably spend my time elsewhere, of chase them down with a 262 until my perks run out.
The perk-free La-7 with 3 guns even though a small percentage flew them with the 3 guns is something I care more about.
Maybe the Arado will eventually be corrected, but priority must be issues that happens every single every day in the melee arena.
My 2 öre.
