I'm sorry but your answer is completely wrong. Everybody who play with me in multiplayer on BFM servers almost every day, knows very well that i fly always and only the Tomcat. Does not matter if i lose or if i win: i fly only the Tomcat because i share with you your same passion, do you understand? I flew hundreds of hours in bfm with the "new" FM during last 6 months, always with the F14, so i think i know what i'm talking about! It's for sure that the current FM certainly is causing people to lose some fights: the plane is "tanked", it lose 1,5 degrees/second in sustained turn and it does not accelerate as it can. For example, the best F18 players are able to outmanouver the F14 simply continuosly turning and climbing so that at the end they are able to do of the F14 "meat on the table". And you can be sure that in a fight during which you turn all the time at the maximun sustained turn rate till you have the last drop of fuel, and when i say all the time i mean exactly that, 1,5 degrees/second make a huge difference. I understand very well you do this job during your free time and i'm gratefull and i thank you for this, but please don't minimize the problem and try to understand that, after more then six months, it's completely not good to answer that the FM will be fixed "not anytime soon" or that you will give updates if there will be. Sharing some more details, could help to wait. I really don't want you losing your sleep over the FM because you need to be very rested to do a good job

This is a good news, thank you for your reply. I think it's really important to provide update about your work in progress because many of us like really much bfm.

I think it would be kind if HB will give us an update about fixing the FM, more then 6 months has been passed and "not anytime soon", n my opinion, it's no more an acceptable answer, thank you

I understand, anyway it's a pity you don't play on public servers, you lose really much fun and, at the same time, there is a lot to learn or to teach. I hope you'll change your mind, if yes, we''ll meet on justdogfight or mobettabeta server

Do you play on a particular server? Your nickname? It would be nice to fight with you to learn more, thx

The real story is: Monday, I could wait till Tuesday If I make up my mind Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind Friday'd give me time, Saturday could wait But Sunday'd be too late ... and so 6 months passed and the Tomcat is still tanked...

Do you have an approximate ETA for the FM update? Thanks

Almost 6 months passed and the problem was still not fixed, It's really very sad. Just today, with my F14B, i had several 1vs1 vs a good F18 pilot in multiplayer and, even if had more speed at the beginning, the f18 in levelled flight was able to accelerate and undertake my speed or also go for vertical and climb much more then me even if i was starting climbing with more speed: at the beginning i was able to see the F14 come closer but then the f18 was able to have more speed and climb higher. All this with clean configuration and with 4000 lbs of fuel or less.

If possible, i think could be nice to have the option to assign an axis to sweep wings, thanks.

Good to know, 2 months are not a so long period of time.

Please, could you explain what you mean with "not anytime soon"? One month, 2 months, 6 months? Just to have an idea. Thank you

If possible, please fix also max speed. It's impossible to past mach 2.2 also over 35.000 feet, thx.

Very good job, i'm really interested to see your results when ready.

I understand, thanks for your answer.

I think flight model is one of the most important problem to fix and i'm surprised and worried you work on it during your free time. I think all the people who play bfm is waiting for it.

Was the turning performance fixed with this hotfix? Thanks

I have the same question to ask

I confirm

Unfortunately Satrapa is dead in 2019 but i bought his book and i'm waiting to receive it

Here is the source http://www.anft.net/f-14/f14-detail-cp-d-pilot-02.htm

At which hour the patch will be released? At the moment is still not available.

The F14D's hud is very good, i would be happy to pay to buy the D version.

Thank you!

Any news about open beta update?

Angelo i think you are a very kind and good person. I hope all this discussion make everybody think about how much rules are important. By my side if i'll meet somebody cheating in the future i think i'll change simply area of gaming to find someone else who play fair. I've deleted the post as for your request Thank you very much for everything you do Ciao, Massimo
