BF109 - Can't we just have the gunsight in the middle?

No, simply let it where it is and just change the parallax of the aiming, as the pilot, in real life, didn't move his head to aim, but just close his left eye.

Close left eye---cntrl E

Trust me. It really works LOL

I doubt any pilot closed his eye in combat. Deprives you of 3d view and distance estimation. Just give us a button that has to be pushed throughout aiming that moves the head automatically to the right position while keeping head shake and g effects. Bingo. The current way is not more realistic as viewing hardware is not simulating real movement well and making it unrealistically difficult to aim with the 109 compared to other planes.

Keep it the way it is, please
As Kimosabi (and in different words Cheesehawk) said...it is part of the simulation

No trained marksman ever closes an eye.

Oh come on, stormcrow,
just practice a little with your TrackIR and soon there won't be a reason to change a thing.
shouldn't be too hard to lean left a little for shooting.
quite a good exercise to keep your head steady. if you can not do it you really should practise..
or you try to tweak your trackIR profile.
always try to find the mistake on your end first.
I think the present solution works very well, no need to change.
sorry.

How conservative you all are

I make a proposition that allows everyone to aim his fashion (it won't even prevent you to use the current way), which is at LEAST as realistic as current state if not more realistic, but all you do is to pressume falsely that I don't have enough flight time with the 109.

I like it the way it is.

It makes the German fighters feel different.

It works just fine for me with 6DOF TrackIR 5

Lean a little to the right - presto - crosshairs.

In all the years of Il2, I have to admit - I never heard this one.

S!

Like most of you have already stated, leave it the way it is. Put a little time in and tweak your TrackIr profiles or use the required buttons to do the job. This is a simulation not a semi-lation.

I have no problems with the gunsights and like them as they are. I think its great.
