Svět Virtuálních Křídel (IL-2 Sturmovik 1946, Cliffs of Dover, Rise of Flight)

Baron napsal:

Nuž neviem či to bolo spôsobené iba preťažením. Keď sme testovali s kolegom strelca v Bf110, nedalo sa strieľať po zásahu do "nášho" lietadla. Bolo jedno v akom režime, koľko zásahov sme dostali a kam - stačilo napr. "cvrnkutie" do krídla, a guľomet niekoľko sekúnd nestrieľal (5G sme určite nemali, leteli sme rovno - bolo to tesne pred "žabkovaním lode" ). To isté bolo aj v He111 a Ju88. Blenheim neviem, ten sme neskúšali, ale od kamarátov z 310 som počul, že je tam tiež (asi ten istý) problém.

...hlavne nech to už konečne vydajú

Oh, and about the bomber gunners. The fix was the removal of the 5m/s limit.

-There are no changes to weaken the 109's.

-Everyone should understand there are eight 40mm Bofors firing in this video... normally a British airfield in 1940 would have a single battery of four Bofors.

-It's up to mission builders to specify how much flak they want... in the pre-4.3 missions, builders would place as many as 16 or 32 Bofors protecting a field... now they only need to place 4, and they will have a more dangerous defense... better for frame rates, better realism.

-Realistically, aircraft could not simply loiter over enemy fields the way players were able to do in Vanilla, TF 3.0/3.01/4.0. Now there are more historical and demanding factors players need to consider.

-Bombing, even dive bombing, or glide bombing, typically happened at much higher heights than what we have seen in the game up to this point. Real Pilots would drop their bombs from 750 meters, 2000 ft. A Stuka would begin its dive at 3000 meters, release the bomb at 1000 meters, and pull out by 750 meters.

-It's up to mission builders to set the victory conditions and targets such that they can be hit by bombers... less pinpoint taking out of individual vehicles, and more area targets.

The fighter pilot in me does not want to get shot down every time I am diving on a bomber with full speed and performing immediate evasive manouvers. On the other side, as a bomber pilot I hope the days are gone when a single enemy fighter was able to make himself comfortable in my six without having to fear getting shot down by my gunners (or the other gunners in the formation).

With flak it is also quite tricky: while flying on high-altitude I would not like to fear getting shot down by flak all the time. But I would like to get my heart beat up while strafing a well-protected airfield.

I think it is all about finding the right balance (speed, height, manouvering, etc. of the aircraft mixed with a reasonable coincidence-factor). I am quite sure that TF 4.3 will be far away from perfectly realistic conditions. But I have high confidence that it is a big improvement compared to the situation so far. We will see soon...
