with the current situation created by RoF, which goofed up the gunner, I'm not real enthused about flying in another war game until that is fixed. For one, Mein can't be involved, which is not fair, and secondly, if we get shot down we can't be a gunner for the rest of the game.
Also, I found out, the hard way, that the patch also goofed up the bombers. I flew the HP the other night to practice, and although I got to the bomb sight ok, once I dropped bombs, I was then stuck on the bomb sight. If I went back to my seat position, I was frozen in a similar fashion to the gunner goof. Naturally, I was zoomed in and focused on my dash gages, so that was all I could see. I flew back to the lines on Shift A, then cut the engines and came down via the bomb sight view, and toggles back and forth to the dash to check airspeed. Once I saw grass, I knew I was close, but I think I hit a tree. Wounded, but nosed over. Not too bad for blind flying, but if I were attacked, forget it- no defense possible.
I can not see how any war game could go on with these serious faults in place. The whole game is skewed because of it. The only way to bomb is either go in low, and not use the bomb sight, or do it the old fashioned way, like I did in RB3D, and simply go by looking down, and getting the feel of when to drop.
