seafireliv Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Yep. I know it sounds silly, but it`s really nice to look around when the propeller is spinning and see moving grass. Only other game that wowed it for me was farCry4 which, while far from realistic, had moving grass and leaves when in a helo. When first starting this sim I was bit `meh` because I spent like two days just relearning how to take off in snow (although seeing my tire tread while stuck in the snow was cool). But then I started a campaign and it was summer and wow! Greenery and browns and wavy high grass! I think I wasted time just checking out the grass when I should`ve been rolling! The ground textures are real nice. Now I get an almost-real sense of fear when coming in to land with a smoking engine and watching the realistic earth swooping towards me! There`s lots more I could mention, but I just wanted to focus... on the grass. Edited March 31, 2016 by seafireliv
6./ZG26_McKvack Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Yeah its beautiful. The dev team did an amazing job on it

Ground handling is amazing and I love the grass as well also I think the head moving with Track IR is a really cool feature
seafireliv Posted March 31, 2016 Author Posted March 31, 2016 Ground handling is amazing and I love the grass as well also I think the head moving with Track IR is a really cool feature The head moves with TIR? You mean the pilot model head also tracks with the TIR? I didn`t know that!
SwallowFire Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Only other game that wowed it for me was farCry4 which, while far from realistic ARMA 3 has this effect, and its gameplay is also to some extent very realistic
DD_Arthur Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Hello Seafire. Nice to you here. For some grassy fun; go into QMB and select the Stalingrad summer map. Select single plane mission with ground start. Select Bf109 F4 with 90% fuel. Put the stabiliser pitch fully down and taxing off the runway into the grass. Apply brakes fully, give it full throttle and push the stick forward. See if you can balance it on its wheels without bending the prop. When you do, look out the cockpit and check out the grass. Best regards m8, Arthursmedley Edited March 31, 2016 by DD_Arthur

Yep, the 3D pilot's head moves in sync with the player's cockpit camera movements. Very nice little feature! Edited March 31, 2016 by LukeFF

I will give that a go! p.s. Just watched a recording- Yep, seeing your pilot look around following your track ir moves, really adds to the realism of the game. Very nice.
