Doc3908 Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Well, I jumped in the old I-16 for a quick dogfight with a Bf-109 - the standard instant action dogfight mission for the I-16. Here are my first impressions: 1. Holy cow - I can't tell what's up and what'd down in the clouds. It is VERY disorienting! 2. The AI seems to be behaving more "intelligently". I may be mistaken, but I think ED have tweaked the AI. It no longer does mindless vertical circles, but tries a larger variety of "moves". 3. On my aging machine (i7-8500, Nvidia 1080GTX, 24GB memory, Rift-S), the new 2.7 OB seems to run a bit more choppy than 2.5.6 OB. Still playable, but 2.5.6 ran a bit more smoothly. Still very flyable, though (at least with only 1 opponent). Need to do much more testing. Edited April 14, 2021 by Doc3908

That would be great if they did. I'll start the new P-47 campaign soon so I'll find out. Modules: Wright Flyer, Spruce Goose, Voyager 1
