arturojgt Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) I’m reading the “A NIGHTMARE’S PRAYER” book (a fascinating peace of paper) and I found some lines that put me to think about this... In one hand we have this Franzak guy, a real pilot struggling with real issues and in the other hand a bunch of AV8B strogenic customers complaining about every code fault in a awesome game module. Common guys...I enjoy finding every inevitable minor malfunction in this module and even more how to overcome this difficulties while flying “in my man cave, sited on my chair with air conditioned, a beer 1 feet abeam and a beautiful wife waiting for me”. Just like in the book “Is better to have the feet on the ground and wish to be in the air than in the air and wish to be in the ground”. Congratulations to all Razbam team, keep pushing.

some1 Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Common guys...I enjoy finding every inevitable minor malfunction in this module and even more how to overcome this difficulties while flying I'm not sure Franzak felt the same way dealing with that problem. More likely he would have some bitter words towards people responsible for this cock-up. So you could say those "strogenic customers complaining about every code fault" properly simulate real pilots dealing with real issues. Just part of the job.

arturojgt Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Real AV-8B pilots dealing with some real issues. Not so sure. Franzak in the book hit the canopy and bad words come out of his mouth because of the following: he could not communicate with the tower, he could not be able to see the light of the runway (ir dimmed lights), he landed the plane in super high cross wind and all this come to a not so happy ending due to the help of a guy from his squadron in the radio. The radio issue was nothing more than that, he had used the back up radio. When I have to do “the first or the second” while in flight I remove my oculus and go to the bathroom, I’m a cartoon pilot nothing more than that and is a good thing to remember, this guys from Razbam made this modules to entertain us and take some money to their homes. To the administrator: feel free to remove this thread if it become aggressive. Keep pushing Razbam, I’m waiting for a Tornado IDS. ;) Sent from my Tornado IDS while on autopilot using Tapatalk Pro.

CCIP to auto transition, reflected cue, AUTO Mode Practice good profiles, fly predictably and steady NRAS Option Actually look at my speed on takeoff TPOD point track on moving targets Zoom in, track manually Low Altitude Warning (LAW) Watch my altitude manually Chaff/Flare Programs Pump them out manually I mean, I can go on. But there are plenty. Nice to have != necessary This module != complete - I just live with it. Also, it's not an analogy, it's literally something US Marines say... It's kind of a way of life.

arturojgt Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Real AV-8B pilots dealing with some real issues. The missing things or the wrong ones are all listed in the bug tracking web page, it’s a matter of time nothing more. The intention of this thread was just to cheer up the Razbam guys, make them hurry with some corrections and to bring some smile to the reader. To all users, make a favor to yourself and read the book A NIGHTMARE’S PRAYER, you will not regret. In the toilet and using Tapatalk pro to kill the time. Arturo "Chaco" Gonzalez Thomas
toilet2000 Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) TPOD point track on moving targets Zoom in, track manually HAHAHAHA Good one. Like it's actually doable. I mean, with your "nice to have != necessary", I don't know why the Marines are actually buying new planes. CCIP is nice to have, but might as well just bomb manually, and not bother with a system that "could break". There's a reason why those systems are considered a basic necessity in today's airplanes, because they're not "nice to have", they're essential in today's battlefield.
