Rickitycrate 10 Posted August 10, 2009 I wrote this for another thread but then I did not want to go so far O/T. It covers something I've mentioned before so please forgive. Here I go again. Sound of the wind and other sounds are amplified by feeling them in a rumble chair like I use. You don't have to even run it loud. I hear what you guys hear but I feel what you guys don't. A force feedback stick is immersive if not really representative of real life it does increase your sensory inputs. A FFB stick may affect my accuracy but I'ld rather have the sensation it provides than not. So a rumble seat, game chair, Butt Kicker what ever you might call it increases the sensory inputs immensely and more true to life than a FFB stick. So, you hear Archie barking all around your rickety assed crate and your engine maybe takes a piece of shrapnel and starts to run rough, you know how that feels-anxiety, oh bloody 'ell, imagine that you feel the effects of this. The percussion of the closest Archie bumping your wire, stick and canvas bird about. Your steady humming and smoothe vibrating engine suddenly lurching, coughing and spitting with you praying the vibration doesn't totally stop because when it does, she's dead. And you? Well I wish I could have all of you over to my domicile one at a time to see for yourself. It may not be for all. But in my ever so humble opinion you just don't have a virtual WWI cockpit without this. Complements OFF BH&H very nicely I say. My best to you and thanks for reading, Jim p.s: please don't start showing up unannounced Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullethead 12 Posted August 10, 2009 Sounds cool. But I'm afraid of what it might do to you if you get wounded, shot down in flames, or crash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My best to you and thanks for reading, Jim p.s: please don't start showing up unannounced Jim... you need therapy... really... you do. Might I suggest a few doctors.... Dr. J. Daniels Dr. J. Beam Dr. G. Dickel and my personal favorite - Dr. J.W. Black Really, any one of the above will help tremendously with your problem, and the medication they perscribe helps sooth most nerve issues and such. All the best, OvS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cameljockey 3 Posted August 10, 2009 Those Rx's are okay, but if you really have it bad, nothing beats "Dr. Austin Nichols" and his "Wild Turkey Elixir"! Gobble, Gobble! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olham 164 Posted August 10, 2009 A rumble seat? You're kidding! What happens, if you press three times "o" ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hasse Wind 46 Posted August 10, 2009 A rumble seat? You're kidding! What happens, if you press three times "o" ? A huge spring tosses the player high up in the air? After that there'll be use for all the help those doctors OvS listed can provide! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
