New Video: Bailout


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I liked watching it, but it made me sad because seeing the sequence of how you bail out reminds me of how we could be in first person during bailing out and floating to the ground. I miss being able to look around with trackIR while floating down, seeing the other aircraft buzz around with the parachute sitting above me  :(

Amen to that!

I would so like to have the ability to pan the exterior view with Track IR, I really miss that in this sim.

Excellent video TyphoonOne.  Particularly liked the view point of the PE-2 gunner!    You are the bale out meister. :salute:

 

Any advice for this guy? :(

Yep I remember. To me in this game it doesn't need to be a super detailed First Person view like DCS P51 , just the view of falling way from the plane through his eyes would be nice

Yes, the first person bail out was exponentially more cool than the current view. It yanking you out of first person.. Is far more disconcerting than bailing out in first person..can we do a poll to get the pulse of the community?

I don't see why not? I'm not sure if a poll for that has been done for a 1st person bailout, but I'm pretty certain that they've already said they aren't going to include in :(

I've made a poll in the polls section so people can vote for what they would like to see. No harm in checking the community's thoughts/votes on the matter. I remember after talking with Loft that the biggest complication is the initial few seconds as the guy prepares to jump, but I could live with third person there and the ability to go into first person afterwards. It always looked so much better to see clear sky in front of you and the chute above instead of the pilot in his chute on the screen.

 

Poll is here: http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/9913-poll-first-person-bailouts/

wow watching all those animations take part in the bail out sequences are pretty exciting.  That last bit especially with the He-111 in that dreadful spin.  when the crew bails, there's the one parachute at the bottom left of the screen that looks as though it won't deploy on time...  then does just above the trees.. 

 

nice vid!  :)
