What's shown in the film is ACM. I'd rather see any sort of this than the standard 'running away when you have no advantage' approach, that's the antithesis of ACM imho  :old:

When guys "stick stir" at speed, at the speed they stir, if they were in real AC I reckon they would crush their heads on the canopy. But, in the end how do you model that?

I'd be willing to bet Dale could (after all, heads wobble when passing out). The next question would be, would it be worth it or would the player base, overall, appreciate it?

Did you you not read the thread, they were both veteran players. And that wasn't the inital pass, he wasn't surprised and pannicked, he planned on doing what he did. Both films were cropped for brevity.


"Veteran players" haha obviously not. There is a major lack of ACM here for sure. If they really knew what they were doing they could have easily out maneuvered or lag rolled your C2. Veteran or not, this Is not proper ACM and these are rather newbish tactics from someone who isnt good fighting in defense positions.

 Since you recorded/filmed the fight...just to PROVE your point...you tube what it looked like from opponents view. If not, perhaps you should not have even posted.

 I know I'm not as 'great' a pilot...but this would seem to be wise approach before getting on such a public platform and demonstrating one ignorence..ment in nice way.

You think that by switching to the opponent view I may discover something that vindicates their decision? Is this correct?

I did btw check their views in the film viewer and it makes the FW look even sillier as he's racing toward the base spraying bullets in it's general direction, resigned to his fate and ignoring the two or three planes that are behind him shooting him.

 Hey, don't bother yourself.
 But, seriously...your spouting off with half the story.
 Again...don't bother yourself. Especially if you don't... No, I won't say that... let me say there IS something to be learned. And I'd like to see it.
