  1. Thanks for the updates. It's always nice to see what developers are working on and what their challenges have been. I'd love to see more updates like this in future projects. Heck, maybe even start with a list of things that need to be done and cross them off for us as they get completed? Thanks again @Ironmike.
  2. Every Hitler video I've ever seen is hilarious and this one did not disappoint!
  3. I will, as soon as I figure out how to start it.
  4. I would love to see updates from the dev teams where they tell us what they're working on, things they find that have to be fixed/reworked and things that still need to be done. I don't necessarily need a release date.
  5. That happened about a month after I left Seymour Johnson.
  6. Everyone else flies, they just don't fly as long or as far.
  7. Yeah, the wing tanks were 370 gallons and the centerline was 600.
  8. I asked my crew chief, SSgt Paul Lane that question and he replied "because that's all the T.O. requires". I never asked again.
  9. So why isn't the A-4 an official mod? Seems like its good enough to be one.
  10. I want to bomb NVA units outside Khe Sahn.
  11. Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see what this has to do with my post.
  12. My apologies for the post I made after this one. I didn't see this until after I made my post and edited it and in retrospect I should have deleted my post as soon as I saw this and in not doing so I made your job harder. I regret my inaction in this matter.
  13. With the shotgun like pattern and high rate of fire the odds of scoring a hit increase in the same manner that a shotgun increases your odds. In an actual shotgun, the shot not only spreads out (width) but it also creates what is known as a shot string where the individual pellets arrive on target at slightly different times. The shot string effect is more pronounced with lead shot than it is with steel or other non-toxic shot alternatives.
  14. I've never played War Thunder so I didn't know it was from that game. I'll edit my post and thanks for the correction.
  15. Spin up time on the M61 is greatly exaggerated by people. As you can see, the gun fires almost instanteously, quicker than the F-5 with it's blast doors. Pilots are also taught to fire 1 second bursts, which is about 100 rounds. Dispersion. It's intentional with both the M39 revolver cannons and the M61. When boresighting the M61 you boresight 3 of the 6 barrels and they never boresight to the same spot on the target. The gun is designed to fire with a shotgun effect, in this case, an 8 foot spread at 1000 yards. I believe the SUU-23 gun pod is the only one that was driven by an electric motor, the SUU-16 was driven by a ram air turbine that required the aircraft to be moving at 300mph minimum but 400+ was optimal. M61's mounted internally on aircraft are generally driven by the aircrafts hydraulic system. ROF advantage goes to the M61 almost instantly. *Edit* Edited for accuracy.
  16. That wouldn't be historically accurate.
  17. Do you recall the number of that T.O.?
  18. Why would they not release an update for the Phantom in addition to scheduled updates?
  19. It wasn't anything you did or said. It's all on someone else that accused players of being "low knowledge gamers that didn't care about history" and accused Heatblur of false advertisement. I won't mention any names but his initial is Vampyre.
  20. I guess you better quit the game then since we don't have every single variant/livery/weapon/map to make missions that are historically accurate. If Heatblur had put an F-4G livery on an E for a video on SEAD, you'd still be griping. Most of us understand which livery was used doesn't really matter because that wasn't the point of the video, although I bet it did make some German players happy to see it. (The livery.) I am going to enjoy doing SEAD missions with the Phantom I worked on and you won't have to partake in that if you don't want to. Beautiful isn't it?
  21. I laughed at the Champagne/sparkling wine reference. Well played sir, well played.
  22. You have repeatedly attacked others motivations, players and Heatblur, and then to say I had an ad hominen attack is ridiculous and nothing more than projection on your part. You saying players are "low knowledge" or "they don't care about history" while standing on your pedestal refusing to acknowledge the role and capability of the F-4E in SEAD missions is elitist and dishonest. And coming from somone that professes to care about history? Well, let's just say it doesn't help your credibility.
