LOL dweebs need aids to help them. If a person like this needs an aid to help give em a chance to cheat they will.

really, huh?
so what you are saying is every one who says they put a little dot on the monitor is also a cheater? or the many other ways people do it? 

anytime you wanna go to school on how to die in a plane you let me know, I will be more than happy to switch sides or whatever, heck bring your little hourd with ya, or try by your self :rofl 

I suggest bring company because you just dont got what it takes.

...which again, is irrelevant since moving the view up has nothing to do with what you've said.
Yes it does.  Different planes allow a different amount of movement, which must be b/c the creators want to capture something particular about a certain plane and relate it to a game environment.  Anyway, you are obviously unable to grasp what I am saying because you think this game should be like real life.  Having said that, let me ask you a few questions,....

Quote
Although it does offer some nice, cheap excuses to help make people feel better when they game the game.

...Mr. I'm-superior-because-I-don't-game-the-game:

1.  Do you fly with icons on?
2.  Do you set your rear views to the side and up so you can see over the headrest or do you just look straight back into the headrest?
3.  Do you cycle through WEP over and over again when in a dogfight?
4.  Do you .ef when you land or do you taxi safely to the hanger or some other place that you may consider a flight line.
5.  When you pull extended negative g's do you poke your eyes out with sharp sticks because you should now be blind?

If you answer yes to any of the questions above you have constituted yourself a hypocrite...

Wouldn't that one kinda be realistic more so than a direct 6 view?  I don't know about any of you people but I certainly can't turn my head 180 degrees.  Even when I turn my body with, it takes a lot. :)

It's not cheating, but using anything other than the gunsight for an aiming point is a gamey.

<------Never used white out, at a long distance like on the range it can throw you off just a little bit if you're already zeroed, used to just take a little of the carbon from the bolt and rub on it to dull the glare though, worked wonders.

I am gonna use that for a signature/disclaimer (although I'm usually not put in any official capacity because they know me too well)   :lol

Your head no, but now you are making this too basic.  Your head goes between 90 and 105 degrees.... Your eyes moving laterally do the rest to get a full 180 turn without the body moving at all.  Good peripheral vision aids in this greatly.
Wouldn't that one kinda be realistic more so than a direct 6 view?  I don't know about any of you people but I certainly can't turn my head 180 degrees.  Even when I turn my body with, it takes a lot. :)

Standing up, I can spin my head, shoulders and waist round 180 so my feet and nose are pointing opposite directions. Maybe thats just one of the joys of not reaching 30 yet.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.
