Do you prefer F1 or F2 view?

Recommended Posts

Which view do you prefer? F1 or F2?

 

I play using F1 (with TrackIR) so that I can see the pipper and the target clearly. But I long for the field of view that F2 provides (see all mirrors, gagues that I can't read anyway, and more sky). I'd like to know what's more practical and why? And for those who fly real jets, what's the more realistic view?

I use F1 and mouse to look around in A2A combat and just F1 for A2G. when combat or mission is over, I use F6 :biggrin:

F2 for take off/landing and manouvering, then F1 or F3 for combat.

I guess that I am the only one that uses F2 view all the way and full zoom out.....

No I zoom all the way out all the time. I like it because of situational awareness, and zoom in for either precision iron bomb dropping or strafing runs.

Depends on what I am doing. The 3 views seem to remember their zoom and position if you don't repeat the keypress when you are in it, so sometimes I set F1 to be the standard view, I normally zoom back a little bit on the F1 view, and then I set the F2 and F3 differently depending on what I want to do. I like to have a zoomed in view of the radar in BVR engagements so I have a more detailed view on what target I lock up and fire at. If I fly an AC 130 I might have one view set to look left, unless I just use the F4 key to lock view to the target, but that doesn't always work when there are a billion targets to cycle through.
