I luv watching other peoples films, its great to see experts like Wardog and Hristo take out the trash in such a calm and collected fashion (well it appears that way - which is the reason for this post)
I would like to see G effects put into the films, or at least to be able to toggle it off or on. And also, SOUND, without Gs and sound it's a bit of an illusion (no discredit to the guys mentioned above).

Please please please. Would be awesome  

Last, and not least, can you join other pilots as an observer? You'd have to send a request dialogue to the pilot, but thats cool. Or how bout a .film <pilot> command? where you could film from their perspective.

With these two ideas implemented, it would be a very effective way to learn how the experts do what they do, and offer some clues to WHY they are doing it.

Greets Spat ...

Your right about black outs & red outs not being see in film. 25% of any of my film is usually in a blackout. This is where ya lose sight of the con and need to judge there E and know your enemy.

If i split S low 1.5k or so chasin a con,allmost 90% of the time when im in the blackout ill start leading Left. Allmost all cons pull hard left. My thinking on this is that the guys who are right handed will pull hard left, Left handers pull hard right.

Im guessing theres a low percentage of left handers to right in the sim..

Anyone else notice.

But damn ill tell ya,low furball in a p51 is such a blast. Nothin gets the heart pumpin to the point of breaking your stick like a low furball  

And i have had a number of guys in the last few months Join my AC as an observer. This is a great way to show tactics,But Observers can not see weapon tracers & gauges dont function. Like to see this changed.

Wow, that just goes to show i SHOULD actually read the file named 'readme.txt'
ironic really.  

I will be doing some joining in of some players tonight  

I was in a pony busting up a low furball the other night, but it was right by the hill, so fresh cons would always be comming over the hill - kinda put a dampner on getting down and dirty. Im sure there will be more oportunities.

BTW is it me getting worse or is the level of skill really high at around the Asia/pacific (GMT+1100) time slot - circa 22:00 hours? There seem to be few, but really good pilots online then.
Im starting to have some epic battles
