another one my theory

another option of my theory

[Friendly_flyer]

I want a big whooping map of the English Channel for my ultra real campaign, and a host of smaller maps (scaled down, fantasy maps, maps of other areas) for my fun-fun enjoyment.

See, that wasn't so hard?

Excellent idea:
Whenever you got a six you enter time warp and escape or just wait till he's gone.

Awesome....

yes yes swiss enter in time warp fac-simile to STAR TRECK or STAR WARS or SPACE GAME.

TIME COMPRESSION.

but the problem is the sicronization and computer calculation of 32 player online route.

No Xilon, I think I'm detecting sarcasm here...

The whole time warp / time compression thing really just wouldn't work.

QFT.

tone71 no time warp? no time compression?
OK i am agre to real time and real distance
Calculation route.
Calculation airplane short or long range quantity of fuel.
Use real chart and rules instrument for briefing the route distance.
use radio comunication whit your base.

IS NEGATIVE if map not is real is 1:2 or 1:4 no real difficulty no real simulation
but a simple arcade game whit little map and heasy procedure of take of , navigation , and landing , approacing.
NO GPS
NO ICONE in time real to map but optional.

you ask a question what is the difficolt for real pilot ww2 in fly navigation?

If i have the time 1:1 map is certainly my preference, but sometime i only have one hour or one hour and half to play, that´s very likely to left me out of playing if the mission requires long time flying.

I think that's the main point here. Give people enough options and everyone will be happy. Imagine if we didn't have realism options in IL2 and we had to fly with external views enabled all the time, or with locked cockpit views all the time...half the people would be unhappy with the settings all the time. Giving the user options means that everyone is happy with his settings all the time, they just can't play on the same server because of their different settings.

For single player it's definitely not a problem at all. As for multiplayer it's still not a problem, at least in my personal opinion. There's always enough full real servers to fly on and i generally only fly on 2-3 of them most of the time. Some people will want to fly a simulator, some will want to play a game and some will want a bit of both, it's all good.
