See I simply do not feel that.
I'm not saying your wrong, as it is very subjective, but to me this game feels even worse than 46, with CoD being fast and away ahead of both.
In cliffs I actually physically get into the game, a close miss on s head on pass makes my hair stand on end, and a hard fight leaves me panting and heart racing.
This one though, not so much. I wish I could see what you guys do.
Immersion?
Its the same for me, when i said that the LaGG was sluggish, vibrated a lot and that all the hyper-precise kung-fu Moves at the edge of the stall and wingtip Vortices are ...
...are a thing of the Past.
In 1946, you ARE the plane. You ARE the Friedrich. you ARE the Barrel of the MG 151/20, and i am not saying it is simple, but it is at least POSSIBLE to become mentally one with the plane, provided you get into the plane enough
Know its engine state by listening. "Not even looked into the Cockpit once"
To know its wing damage level by feel. "not even looked at the wing once"
To automatically switch to rudder use when the ailerons are out. "not even wasted a splitsecond checking aileron reaction"
..and so many things more, and for many Planes too.
A pilot does not exist any more, after a few hundred hours in <name your favourite plane>.
And by looking at youtube videos for
Cliffs over Dover, i get the impression that the Fusion between Player mind and Virtual plane is still a possible Thing.
Especially the Famous armchair Pilots... they have the handling of their Crate down to a martial art. It seems more Mental than BoS, less checking gauges, less listening to the Plane's feedback, more forcing it to do what you want - at the razor sharp edge of the possibilities.
And i have shifted position ... the Separation i feel in BoS makes things a LOT harder.
It is not fun - it is an effort. I actually try to stay alive. In 1946 i didnt give a whoopdeedoop.
In BoS, it is actually possible, for me, to be scared of the machine.
And BoS is a very Humbling experience to me personally... i am confronted with the pilot's situation, not with the Plane's PoV.
I am not detached. I am not the Plane.
Physics?
the pic above with the two LaGGs...
the one below was actually the next screenshot.
We somehow hit (to be expected) and our contact didnt make us go BOOM (cough IL-2 cough 1946), but instead i was spun to the left, rolled to the left and lost my canopy.
the flap you see by the Rudders is His, not mine. I must have hit it with my Canopy from down below.
this meant i was suddenly inverted, moving sideways, and had zero airstream around the wings. Death sentence.
Also note the sunset reflecting off his fuselage. and tail.
Physics.
A large step ahead from 1946.(15 years...)
Concurrence?
Maybe...
maybe because i dont put 1946 into a direct comparisation, or maybe because i quit 46 to do some war thunder interim action....
...i am able to embrace the new stuff, as DIFFERENT [disgusting and ugly!!!!!] it may seem.
High Hopes?
I threw my expectations overboard before touching BoS. I told myself "as different as CloD is from 1946, this one is even stranger, so keep the mind wide open"
I put aside the little frustrating Time i have had with CloD, and the sadness i had when i learned that CloD will never turn into the next "1946+DBW"
This is a piece of software that humbles you as an Armchair Pilot, that gives (me at least) the message:
You are not even worthy of touching that LaGG, get back to 1946 Kindergarden where planes fly straight, greenhorn!Screw all of you naysayers. Screw 1C, Screw 777, screw Oleg, screw Ilya, screw all and anyone.
Imma keep going till i got this down to the same precision level i had with my Typhoon back in 46.
because this one is sound, and this one has Potential.
Of course the Road is long.
But this is 41%. We arent even on the Runway yet. We are still Taxiing along somewhere between engine start and lineup.
keep that in mind...
