In a short time 4K resolution will become the norm and this won't be as much of an issue for flight sims. That's the solution more so than any type of icon or scaling feature.

Like 1080p gaming has become the norm? 'Cause reading through this thread has introduced me to a lot of people running at 720p or lower...

 

Methinks it's going to take quite a bit more time for 4K to become the norm than you're thinking.

It is already normal to find great 4K displays cheaply and when a price difference is like 50-100% at most it makes many wonder should it be bought. Like do you spend 450-500€ for 16:9 1920x1080 or 2560x1440 or 550-600€ to get UHD.

 

The limitations are in 3D card, do you have a HDMI 2.0 or Displayport to get easily 60Hz without dual-HDMI.

And if you use desktop applications a lot, 4K is even better.

 

What is only waiting is to get people update their monitors and that takes 3-5 years. And then it is very common to see 4K monitors, now it is just "not rare".

I just got my shipping notification for my Rift DK2. I'll report back how spotting air and ground targets is with the Rift...

 

Poll: bigger dots and metal glare! (+ smart scaling)

Whatever is done in iL2 COD seems to work I can spot aircraft and don't need labels. I need to zoom in to identify their shape and identify friend or foe which is how it should be. I think the glare helps as well.

Forget it. On current resolution we shouldn't judge visibility in the OCR.

Next generation hopefully yes.

You ain't gonna tell a man who just spent around 300 USD to forget it. :megalol:

If you want to talk to anyone about anything personal, send it to their PM box. Interpersonal drama and ad hominem rebuttal are things that do not belong on a thread viewed by the public.

One thing i have to point out... naming a thread.. "OK, so" is as useful as tits on a bull.

difficulties identifying enemy aircrafts.

 

Just a question here.

 

Dont you think extremely difficult to see enemy aircrafts from two or three kms? I think itnis a matter of the difumination. Isnt any mod to improve this? I dont want to cheat just to be a little more realistic.

 

Any comments?

It is just an improvement opportunity.

 

I totally agree. :thumbup:
