I would like an eight machine gun option for the Spit. Anyone else?

This is entirely historical and is even described (and outright prescribed) in the manuals. Exactly as you say the idea is to get a greater "depth" of effective fire. This was important for all planes with a lot of wing-mounted guns, but extra much so for the Spitfire with its horrendously bad machine gun placement (very wide spacing for a very low and weak caliber) which - if all guns were aimed at one specific point - would have an outright awful depth of effective fire.

 

In particular the Americans did this to a great extent with their .50s since the punch of the machine guns meant that they weren't very dependent at all on hitting exactly at convergence to do enough damage.

 

Nah that was just for noobs and Americans :-P    Experienced pilots insisted on one convergence point because even a weak caliber like .303 will dismantle a 109 when all 8 meet in a small area.

Why not a golden shower while we’re at it?

 

If it’s good enough for the president, certainly it’s good enough for us.

 

Comments like that don't serve any purpose in a topic like this, and you know that.

Why do you have to make Bathroom Furniture into a weird, creepy sex-thing? Trying to be edgy, as always, I guess. 

 

 

I would love to take a Golden Shower though. Ingame ASAP.

True, but then I wonder: Does this thread even have a purpose at this point. I mean look back at the last dozen posts.

Well, thanks in part to this forum, I now know that is not true. Both 109's and Fw 190's had different convergences for different guns. Many aircraft depended on harmonized guns as well. Some had staggered convergence as described. Still others had a general, non-specific, convergence - similar to harmonization.  It wasn't just, "us Yanks."

Bro, if you ever get down this way, I'd happily make this happen for you.

I cant stop laughing at the golden showers joke

Why would you want less firepower? seems counter productive to me.

Why should people only wish for what's objectively better rather than what offers variety?

 

With your mentality we don't even need any of the current modules! Bf 109 K-4, Ta 152, Yak-3 and La-7 or GTFO, right? ;)

Why else would people take meditation if not to numb themselves to the soul-crushing meaningsless of their existence?

Oh no, not another stream-of-consciousness download of adolescent philosophy...

 

I get where your coming from, and that your intentions are to share these 'hard earned' insights you think you have, but nothing you've just said is original and pretty much everyone over their mid-twenties has thought the same thing at least once.

 

Anyway, the flight sim community is full of knowledgeable and interesting weirdos and free thinking types, far more than the 'Mindless Drones' you so desperately want us to know that you think you're better than.

The main reason this forum isn't a constant morose circlejerk about the state of the human condition is because we've got better things to talk about, like which aircraft looks more unattractive or if the next DLC should have an Me262 and a Sopwith Camel in it.

 

I've also lost count of the 'hurr durr viagra is blue pill lololol' comparisons I've read on the internet over the years, and all your thinly-veiled anti-American slagging off is boring.

Well, I suffered from being given Ritalin at a young Age and suffered from severe Depression, Anxiety and Suicidal thoughts throughout my Teens most likely due to it.

I basically became dependent on it for Impulse Control and to "feel" Emotions. Relearning this took me years (And I'm still not very good at it), a time in which I gained weight and suffered from severe depression. 

 

It's a Hot Button Issue for me. 

 

Also: it's not thinly veiled, it's served on a Silver Platter. And the Points I make are pretty Mainstream anyways, at least in my Circles, and the Blue Pill thing was a shot at the pseudo-deep Stoner Philosphers.

With Zizeks Help I am fighting my way through Lacan and Hegel (Phänomenologie des Geistes) currently, and My Gott, it is hard. 


I want a fighting Cock.

Sucks to hear that, but everyone reacts to their surroundings in their own way and everyone has their cross to bear.

And there aren't enough 'stoner-philosophers' here to bother regurgitating trite observations at, surely.

 

As for the anti-American stuff, the previous post of yours was more subtle, yeah. But honestly, wind your neck in and wise up with that. It's puerile and childish, taking a pop at Americans is like baby's first existential geopolitics rant.

It's not big or clever to go for the low-hanging fruit, it just makes it obvious you're taking your first steps into being an angry kid.

Also, trying to make a virtue out of it makes you come across like a twat, FYI.

 

I'm not even remotely American, and I have no particular affinity towards them just like I have no antipathy towards them either.

But on this forum, as in real life, I'll take people as they come. Judging them solely on their place of origin is stupid.

 

Bit of brief surface-level Hegelian reflection for you to play with -

(thesis) your own 'silver platter' anti-American discourse

(antithesis) forum backlash; no-one takes you seriously

(synthesis) we all learn how to get along, man, and we can go back to arguing about FMs, or pestering the devs for the speedy inclusion of trivial features.

 

 

Meanwhile, back on topic... I see your flying cock, and in reference to the thread title, I raise you a Spitfire with no machine-guns, which I'd rather see than eight:
