I have often noticed dogfights are extremely unrealistic. It would be cool if the guns and misled power were turned down and if, upon small scrapes and such, dents and smoking engines and overall battle damage were added. Also, add a sonic barrier graphic for when passing the speed of sound.
Thats true, I was also hoping that fires in the engine wouldn’t automatically result in it losing power. It would be great if there was an overheating mechanism like war thunder where it eventually shut down thanks to an excess of heat @AudioDud3
Well it looks like they managed it anyway! @AudioDud3
yes
WE NEED THIS IN THE GAME
I don't need to read to know what you r talking about, I agree
Yup couldn't agree more
I had a missile detonate in front of my plane, and all it did was blow off my nose cone.. Lol More realistic damage would be a good thing.
I completely agree. Many times one of my bombers against one of my fighters is destroyed instantly, when it should take a few minutes(the bomber was huge, and the fighter had one gun)
Agreed
how much will it lag if it had such specific damage models like warthunder?...
just a scary thought...
@JacobHardy64 I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THANK YOU
This suggestion has been posted sooooooo many times!
War thunder isn't super realistic. IL-2 sturmovik 1946 and Battle of Stalingrad are @Colonel
THAT WOULD BE SO COOL I HAVE WATCHED VIDEOS OF WAR THUNDER ON THE INTERNET AND IT HAS REALISTIC DAMAGE IT WOULD BE GREAT IF IT GO ON SP
Actually I have had dogfights in which I've incurred battle damage! (If you use "bridge killer" modded guns though forget it, your' canopy will fly off at 700-2400 mph. lol)
The first time was literally the day after I made this suggestion when one of my twin-boom designs lost one of it's booms from the wing back. It happened so fast though I don't know if I flew into debris or was hit by a bullet! I have a couple of saved screenshots of that. Then the day before yesterday while testing one of my project aircraft I went head to head with what we named P-51 Mustang 3.0 that's a lil more realistic and armed. Despite her six guns she couldn't get a proper bead and as he went to veer off either I snagged him with the tag end of a gatling gun burst or he collided with my far right wingtip. He blew up though and I yawed hard towards the right but stabilized after.
These instances aside, I agree it would be nice but I'll be happy when the standard builder allows greater customization and wings don't have to look slab sided or "puffy" from fuselage block overlay. (Look back a ways in my history, I wrote a LONG list of suggestions - one of which was battle damage revision.)
@Delphirier Stop ignoring the facts. There is weather. Weather isn't just rain or snow.
@TempestAviation yes.
@TempestAviation Thats not weather thats literally just adding some lighting and implementing dark clouds!
@Delphirier Steam?
@deusalgor Steam?
@deusalgor The thing is false, and no we don't have weather.
@TempestAviation WE DO HAVE WEATHER. Look in game settings when you in sandbox.
Sonic barrier graphic? Do you mean prandlt-glauert effect?
WE NEED WEATHER ASWELL
I agree with this post!
