Anyway, BF, you are making up history. We were always told 6 DOF was impossible in IL-2 because the cockpits were not designed for 6 DOF, and that there would be troubles with gaps. There was never any official statement about denying 6 DOF to keep online play balance. This is sheer nonsense anyway because people who play using keyboards are disadvantaged, those who do not have pedals and separate throttles are disadvantaged, those who do not have TrackIRs are disadvantaged, and those who can't virtually fly or shoot worth a hang are disadvantaged to the point of near incapacity.

Since you will never try 6 DOF in IL-2, you will never see how seamlessly it works. I wouldn't use it if it were messy because I am a snob, and I hate crude work. As I stated earlier, I think the 6 DOF for IL-2 works better than that in FSX, BOBII, and MAW.

I fancy you have never used any of those, or any 6 DOF flight sim, thus, you don't know of what you speak.
