Personally I do not think its nit-picking
![]() It may well be true the forums are packed with over-testosteroned online ego jocks who only want something with cool graphics so they can show yet again their "eliteness" flying tight circles online in totally unhistorical fur-ball battles and do not care really if what they fly is anything like the actual aircraft. The fact that the noisiest most obnoxious posters tend to fly in wonder women view and hence do not care for cockpits and know very little about the actual historical battle does not rule out the many many offline players who are interested in the sim almost entirely because it promises to be historically accurate. |

I don't know everything there is to know about every battle in every theater of WW2, but I also enjoy reading about the battles and the brave service men and women that gave so much for their sides. To lump everyone that doesn't care about the minutiae (aka nitpicking) as low realism point whores is asinine. The community (all sides) has become so ugly and mean spirited lately it's disappointing. I don't know why everything has to resort to name calling or bashing. We are all in this together we all have a stake in it, and we aren't accomplishing anything with all this hate mongering. The game (and it is a game) will be as historically correct as 1C Maddox could make it with the information they had at hand. While also ensuring that it would be enjoyable for people that aren't completely obsessed with one or two aircraft. Let's just please stop the ugliness that has reared up over the last couple of months and agree to disagree. |

So offering up information in as polite a way as I have tried, (and it is difficult with all the unexpected twisting and apparent character attacks now developing, to keep to that route), to assist with a declared goal of most accurate ever cockpits is in fact CRITICIZING and NOT POLITE. Ever noticed how when someone gets knocked down in a street and kicked by some guttersnipe, some lowlife, that others also then join in. Quote:
How long would a list of differences in a cockpit have to be to be seen as an observation worthy of mention as opposed to be nitpicking ? Perhaps the forum should have a warning no entry sign saying anyone who means well and wishes to offer information that may prove useful in correcting mistakes or they feel the developers would find useful given their stated goal should SOD OFF. It will only be seen as criticizing and they will be lacking in politeness to attempt to do so. You will all be seen to have a superiority complex but expected to see it in good humour. However long your error list is, its nitpicking. we dont want to know about mistakes, we dont want them fixed either. Just one observation posting will be seen as overly active, we will keep you active thereafter by throwing in all sorts of twisted posts and untruths. I just hope that a moderator polices these forums and can keep these responses from posters on the polite level I operate on. Accusations of impoliteness now. Do you think anyone else is going to be willing to risk their well meant constructive observations after reading how my attempt has gone and being labelled as overly active criticizing and impolite nitpickers ? Do try folks and read the posted facts please, not get caught up in a dogfight, they are me, not the mudslinging. Quote:

BoBC ,You have been polite,constructive and a good source of information.
Please don't get knocked down too much,there are alot of people thinking the same as you. Thank You. The best compliment that can be paid is that hopefully somewhere in the future a patch/mod may be released. The mistake you made was posting the information on a public forum. ![]() |
