Wanted just to express my greatest respect for the devs. awesome how realistic this sim is. immersion is fantastic. with my last pilot at the lowest rank (jasta 6 march 1917)my wing and i got attacked by some pups directly over NML. first of all, with the new patch the game runs fluid even over the frontline. very good job. there enveloped a furball and there was one of the pups who sticked at my six without beeing able to shake him off. we both lost contact with the others so we went mano a mano over the trenches. i heard him shoot at me, but without hitting me. i tried everything to shake him but he played with me like a cat with a mouse. then i got hit several times. all of a sudden i saw my wingman attacking the pup from above. my adversary immediately turned away and i had the chance to escape and gain altitude. i lost contact to them so i searched some seconds to now help my wingman. i just checked my fuel and realized i have a leak and just some more then 10% left. then i found my wingman and the enemy pup. the tommy set behind him and plastered him with lead. all i could do was shake dust as long as i had a drop fuel left. i saw my wingman bursting in flames and crashing. i really really felt sorry about hm and i was thankful to him that he saved my skin and gave his life for me. i know, it's a sim, but i really felt guilty and sorry for him. that's realism IMHO. this game is really perfect. small things here and there wich could be improved but i love it as it is. all i can say is WOW. thank you devs!!!
only thing i would love to see is, at the replay to be able to read names instead of id numbers. especially with own mates. the other thing is to have a directly impact of the mission to the squadron members, like in rb3d. when somebody crashes, so he should be dead after the mission. if somebody gets a kill, he should get a claim for it. i know, this might be able in P8 and probably it's coded, but that's the only thing i would really love to see. right now the outgoing of a mission has no impact to the squadron members.
besides that, the sim is addicitve, very very tough and the realism is really scary.
thank you many many times, devs. worth any penny.
 
not in P8, rightnow.....open the workshop, set "death means death" and set your overall difficulty to "easiest-no claims"...there you go!
 
oh, sorry. didn't make myself clear. i did'nt mean it for myself. i love the claim form as it is and DiD. i meant for the other members of the squadron.
 
Thanks Creaghorn, that's what we wanted to create, situations that help you get lost in the events and surroundings and think, for a moment, you are at the front.
Great story.

If we can carry on we will look at improving and adding features like that.
