Hazed... with all due respect,
that's sort of like the same logic when some people in IL-2 forums argue that "no-cockpit mode is a compromise for the visual limits on a plane, and is more realistic than the restricted cockpit view".
....
I'm not saying that we should dumb down 6-view to IL-2 levels.
I clearly and surely agree that IL-2's lack of 6-view where your 5, 6, 7 O'c is totally obscured, is an "overkill" to please the nutty 'realism fanatics' who confuse 'hard' with 'real'.
However, as much, as I have stated earlier, getting a panoramic "wide-vision" 6-view in one touch, is nonsense. No excuse for such thing. What I'm saying is divide our current 6-view in half, and make people get only 1 at a time - the left galf and the right half.
