Request for removal of the Propeller 'flicker' effect before final patch....please!

Here is a modern film from the cockpit video. I am a real pilot in real life so not trying to say the effect sux but on the big props painted black you do see them while you fly

It's not reflective of real life. Get rid of it.

All cameras use shutters, and are therefore operating in a different way to the human eye. This is one point where film evidence does not aid an argument, which is a real problem as the majority of visual problems are solved through images and film. While your second video in that post is very close to real life, shutter effects are still very visible. For the record, unless they eye is moved the propeller should appear to be invisible, when your eye moves from A -> B your brain takes the image your eye sees when it reaches B and replaces your memory of the transition with that image, this is why if you look at a ticking clock it often seems like the second hand takes a long time to keep ticking. It's also why rotor blades and fans appear frozen when you look towards them.

No video, ancient or modern, can be used to probe or disprobe this. Cameras are not eyes at all. This can only be solved by real pilots in real prop aircrafts testing how it looks ( or not ) flying in different angles from the sun light. If we have not that reviews, anything you say here based on videos without that real pilot feedback is nonsense.
Even the fact real WWII pilots have not made mention about it ( without asking it ) means nothing. They don´t talk about their planes not being pink, and that not means that the planes were pink.

Prop flicker also causes horizontal tearing to the gun area AND also the screen itself, change altitude quickly from water to sky, you will see it, was never there before, and my video card didn't simply catch a cold. PLEASE FIX IT!
