...Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Did you know that by adjusting the specular settings like that mod does that it makes it easier to see planes at night or at dusk/dawn? If you have that mod and I dont and we are in a coop on opposing sides with no or very tight icons.... you will have an advantage over me because of that mod as you will be able to see me bette tnan I you..... this is the kindof stuff that has so many hackles up.... is that fair? What about in competuition where there is a night mission? So does that mean that like it or not inorer to be competitive I am forced to DL these mods as well? Is that right.. or is it wrong.. if for whatever reason I am opposed to doing this and you arent? A slippery slope my friend.

so why not download it bearcat, you wuss ! It looks really nice imo.. If everyone has an opportunity to download these mods equally then what is the problem. It's that you choose not to isn't it?

Without icons it is extreamly difficult to see aircraft at a distance in the game normally. Much worse then real life. Look at it this way. Is it also fair for some players to have higher resolution and bigger computer monitors to see planes a whole lot better in the distance or faster internet connections and much faster computers and video cards that make their planes perform a whole lot better and further then someone that can't afford these things?
Just my opinion. When I use to play Battlefied 1942 on a slower computer and with a slower internet connection I got my butt whipped regularly by people who could afford as good equiptment as computer companies made. Nothing fair about that either...

I don't know where you got the idea that it is easier to see aircraft in real life. That is the biggest crock of S*** I've ever heard! lol Stalker, I am not trying to be disrespectful, so please do not take it that way. I am a real life pilot and flying aircraft is how I make my living. Some others in my squad are professional pilots as well. One of the BIGGEST things we comment on is how unrealistically easy it is to spot aircraft in IL2. We probably comment on that nightly. If you want an idea of something that is closer to real life, take a look at lockon. It is darn near ridiculous, the ease of spotting aircraft in this sim. I've talked about this to other RL pilots here and we all say the same thing; I will get a call from ATC giving me distance and direction of other aircraft and we still can't see them until they are close and I have 20/15 vision. Sometimes you may see the glint of the sun on an aircraft at a distance on a very clear day, but that is rare. One thing that is missing here is haze. Also, if you didn't know, the higher your resolution, the harder it is to see aircraft IIRC. Last edited by BSS_Sniper; 12-10-2007 at 01:59 AM. |
