Those two bozos are obviously drunk, and the girl was hit by accident. That guy went balistic for nothing.

Nice screenies!

Naw not for me. In a flight sim if there's a mountain in front of me, it really doesn't matter if that mountain is higly detailed with bird nests in the trees, or if it's just a green triangle. What counts is that in the pilot's brain, he must navigate around the obstacle.

Personally, criticing a game's graphics is a non-issue. What really matters is gameplay.

Great advice Wags! Already I've changed my game's config thnks to your input, setting G's to Easy and Fuel to Normal. :yu:

Hey, those Vietnamese only import the very best in SAM technology!

F-16's over Hanoi? Ouch no wonder you got your ass shot! Sounds like a job for F-111's to me!

I just started playing WOV again and I can't believe how sluggish the F-4 is! All I ever hear in my headphones is that wind sound just before stalling and it seems like the only way I can loop is if I'm in full burners going at least 450 kts. Hard to believe the real Phantom drivers used to dogfight like that! Is this normal? You guys fly the stock F-4, or do you do some .ini tweaks to the FM? Thanks

Downed 6 out of 10 eh... Any other MiGs want to mess with wagsled in an F-4? Thanks for the tactical advice, will use your updated FM!

:yes: eh, does the sim model defensive wagon wheels? I smell a mod in the making...

That would be great Wagsled, thanks in advance.

Thanks for the advice Icarus999, I'm slowly but surely figuring out how to the fly the Phantom, shot down 2 MiGs last night! Energy is everything with this beast for sure!

Outstanding input Wagsled! Going to give your new values a go!

Great project Lexx! Please keep it up, I would help you big time if I knew a single thing about modding.

(there was another emoticon I was tempted to use...)

I still don't know how you guys dogfight in the F-4! I gave it another try and I couldn't even split-S without that near stall buffeting. I guess I'm pulling to hard on the stick, but this is a fighter plane isn't it? I'm not even pulling any G's! I guess I'm doing something wrong... Wagsled do a little dogfighting please and let me know if you shoot anything down lol

How perfect would this be for U-2 missions! :yes:

Oh man, sweet!

Because of this thread I just started flying U-2 missions. I really enjoy them! Gives me a rough idea of what Francis Gary Powers was describing in his book. Just wish we can stretch that WEO map to include Russia. Hey! We can keep flying even though we're off the game map right? I wonder if we can use a real map and with a little navigation and imagination... What do you guys think? Would it possible to fly missions into Russia? Maybe I should post this in the mods section.

It was that MiG's lucky day. Hope you wrote down his licence plate number.

Thanks wagsled! Feel free to share more with us, we all love hearing it from the real deal like yourself

Personaly I can't answer your question for sure, but I can tell you that the ThirdWire sims are considered 'light sims'. Therefore I wouldn't count on too much historical accuracy with radar model/types. Unless you're asking about the real F-4, then nevermind what I said. :)

Hey btw you guys know how to configure the game to fly U-2 missions alone? Unless flying with a wingman was historicaly accurate?

I'll notify president Kennedy!
