CF-105 Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 I have been playing BoS for a couple of weeks now, and I've noticed something peculiar. What do you people think should happen when we try to bail at high speed? In 1946, at speeds in excess of 500 Km/h, you could pop the canopy, but bailing or ejection was impossible without special kinds of seats .
CF-105 Posted March 16, 2015 Author Posted March 16, 2015 Yes, I could live with it even until the MTO is released. However, just like oil starvation, it would be nice to some sort of consequence one day, even '46 has it.
-TBC-AeroAce Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 I often thought that it is too easy to bail out in certain circumstances!!! u summed it up quite well EJECTION!! There should be more G/speed constraints on bailing out for sure, almost like the implementation we have currently of when the player is injured . I heard a real life report that getting into the air stream was hard but once u "caught the breeze" it would take care of its self but u would have to look out for the tail cutting you in half. One of my own family members apparently actually bailed out of a Lancaster, lost his leg to some part of the air frame and died later on the ground (poor sod). And yes it is probably very low on the dev list but there is nothing wrong with pointing out something that could add to the sim ace out
CF-105 Posted March 17, 2015 Author Posted March 17, 2015 I hope my comment didn't come across as sarcastic or snide; I'm grateful for all the points raised of this nature, like the oil one. If they can be addressed by the devs, then excellent. Nope, not at all! The bailing and oil bits are not crucial to development, but give the game more of a "simulator" polishing. 1
6./ZG26_Emil Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to fix, the canopy could fly off but the pilot doesn't leave the aircraft above a certain speed....there's no need for anything too complicated.
[TWB]Ewertsp Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 something weird happened yesterday when i tried to bail... i hit ctrl-e, got the external view but the pilot didn't jump out and the canopy didn't open. I didn't lose control of the plane so I crash landed afterwards...
