Campaing Difficulty : Specific instead of Normal/Expert

[Hueyman]

Well, the title is quite explicit.

 

Today, if I want realism I have to forget the whole BoS eye candy by not being able to switch external views... And as I only play Campaign and online Hardcore servers, I have the feeling I won't often enjoy the beautiful exterior, airplanes modeling etc ...

 

Any words on this ?

[Hueyman]

So I am the only one suffering this offline ?

I couldn't agree more!

If you play the campaign in normal you can turn off all helpers except external views and achieve 'expert' with (spectate) external view

 

There were some 'normal' servers, which were setup in options server side, to be like this but were not popular, and I don't believe they are around anymore

 

with new campaign system coming I believe there will be custom option (not 100% sure, think i read that) but effectively it exists now just without the name

May be a silly question, but where can I turn off all helpers, when I set difficulty to 'Normal' in the campaign? I only can see there the selection buttons 'Normal' and 'Expert', but no possibility for customization.

Use 'I' and or 'H' to get rid of visual helpers

 

look in engine key settings to see keys to turn off auto rad, auto throttle limit and auto prop, technochat will show when these have been disabled

 

Normal does not use any simplified FM, you can see what are 'Normal default' in "green" in QMB custom settings

 

may have missed something but, pretty much this will give you expert with external view in campaign
