Could 6-DoF ever be available in 4.2 if players could forgive small Graphics issues

[Clipperkite]

The arguments against the introduction of 6dof simply don't add-up in my view. If the nay-sayers are to be believed, once strapped into a WW2 fighter you had very little ability to move around, let alone look behind you. Well, if that is true would someone please explain to me why 'blown' canopies, of the malcolm hood and bubble type were introduced? What purpose would they serve? Why would you completely redesign the fuselage of an aircraft like the Spit and the Mustang to accomodate these new canopies if you couldn't actually take advantage of the increased visibility they afforded??

It simply doesn't make any sense. Have a look at the early canopies of PRU Spits. You will see bulges added on the sides to facilitate a better downward view. Why would you do this if you can't actually move/tilt your head??

Read some of the tactical reports made of fighters after the intrduction of blown canopies. The test pilots make it very clear that the view to the rear of the aircraft is greatly improved.

The existing non-modded IL-2 view is about as unrealistic as it is possible to be. For godness sake lets just stop the madness and just make the change! 6dof makes the game so much more enjoyable.
