I remember there was an exploit when the sound of a missile launch was made loud or special, I don’t know. But those who used that mod simply released countermeasures when they heard it.
I just didn’t understand how they could see that I was launching a missile at them from a blind spot. And seems they just used special changed launch sound. I don’t know if it’s 100% true, but I’ve read about it on forum.
I insist all of these mods can be used in arcade modes with markers, but not in sim.
What I’ve heard from some in the sim community is that they had a second account sitting in spectator view of their own plane. Speed of sound is forced in Sim so I don’t think that’s it unless gaijin’s implementation of it is completely borked.
You can only have a second account spectating for so long before it gets booted for inactivity…
I think the speed of sound works and doesn’t work sometimes in this game - some sounds seem to be faster than they should but I play with an HP Reverb and I have to play at less than half volume or it crashes so I’m no sound whore…
You can take enough from what happens to this pilot, she has a hard time seeing, can’t hear anything and has to land (she’s an emergency aircraft). - now most WWII aircraft could fly around with some open cockpits at varying degrees of openness (depending on the pilot’s comfort/preference) but they didn’t do it to hear the enemy better, and really that’s the issue with this exploit.
Even after she landed she had to pull over and recover - (she should have been wearing a helmet with the visor down, then she’d just have an adrenaline dump to deal with).
You clearly can see, she is having fun! Look at her smile in the 2nd picture!!!
And in the last pic, she had to whip off her laughing tears!
So much fun she had. ;)
If you go more than 200km/h it almost inpossible to have your eyes opend, so I thing the best thing to do would be to start blackout like with the higt g, but without loosing control of the plane.
That would make them close the cokpit, and if it breaks, they have to land and repair. Easy defence.
And also the plane flew under autopilot in the straght line, the pilot just sit there and hoped to survive. He wasn’t in the control he was there just to see if its possible to survive without the cockpit colosed. This isnt any prove that it should be allowed.
It shouldn’t be restricted. You should be able to open canopy when you want to, but pilot should be handicapped at high speed wind noise, low temperatures and pressure. Slow reactions, vignette, deafness, weaker effect on plane controls etc.
Yea, you survive because you are hold by the seat. I just dont think that in that speed your conces enought to control the plane. It vas my mistake to say mach 1 is inpossible. But it all about the split of the second and no human can think or act that fast.
Controling plane with all the forces on you is inpossible, if not so thay wouldnt build planes with conopies.
What forces? Pilot has big windshiled infront.
And aerodynamics makes air stream go overhead cockpit, even if it has no “roof”.
Have you ever driven a convertible?
Speed of car and supersonic jet are little bit differen. Even if you think canopies shoulden be on an aircraft becose there is no wind at mach 1. They are still there becose kf the airpresure and tempriture in hight alts. The canopy is there for the reason.
Yes, that’s what I said earlier. Pilot should be affected by low temperatures and rapid changes in atmospheric pressure.
That’s why cockpits are made sealed and pressurized on high-altitude aircraft (even on piston GA).
But you should be able to jettisson canopy when you want to. At your own risk.
