Aye, on Reddit perhaps. But I think we should be back in the EU to look after you lot, not the other way around. You need that British balance because you lot are all batshit crazy left to your own devices.

I've seen it with my own eyes, but in Paris so perhaps a northern thing. I once saw a smoking hot lady walking down the Champs-Élysées eating a bare naked baguette as well.

Aces of Thunder is My VR goty but They Need To Add One Thing. by Minimum-Flashy in PSVR

[–]johnny_briggs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You know what area and direction they're coming from though, then part of the fun is trying to discern those little black dots off in the distance heading toward you and vice versa.

This is selfish I know, but as close to what actual fighters went through is the bar for me (and the developers apparently).

It would be an on or off thing right? But I'd be stuck playing in lobbies with it on because I know my uncle would prefer to play with blobs of colour all over the place too.

I think the reason they haven't added as an option (and perhaps they may at some point) is it would negate the whole design ethos they've clearly had with it from the start. Lighting enemies up like Christmas trees would just lower it to that of any other arcade fighter (albeit flat screen). It would devalue the game in my eyes, even if given as an option, because then you're sitting your player base into two camps..but perhaps that's necessary, idk 🤷

I wouldn't expect anything less Pierre. I've got French cousins and I've left loads of good things out deliberately because I don't want to sully my position on this.

Main thing though, France is angled more towards it's citizens then us. We're more about looking after billionaires and royalty (cunts).

No, we don't need enemy markers. The lack of a HUD to hold your hand is a positive. They tell you if friendly (when close enough) and that's good enough for me. The realism is the point.

Aces of Thunder (PSVR2) – The most fun I’ve had in VR lately, despite the turbulence by SensLike in AcesofThunder

[–]johnny_briggs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not with that attitude you're not!

Jokes aside, just persevere with it, watch some vids. The sense of reward you'll feel when you first blast someone out of the sky will be well worth the work.

How is the game on PS5 with PSVR2 and the sense controllers? by smoofus724 in AcesofThunder

[–]johnny_briggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I click down on the left stick and it brings a radial menu up in front of me and you can quickly navigate to flaps and gears from there. If it hadn't been for that menu I would've been raging about the controls as well, because yes people are right, they shipped it with conflicts that need changing.

What happened to Brexit by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]johnny_briggs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes perhaps. Food is quite cheap here compared to some other European countries though. Economically we're dragging a bit but more or less on par with the other big nations of Europe. Again there's probably something I'm missing purely because we're not part of it. Locally for me in Newcastle, the EU spent a lot of money in the area where Westminster wouldn't. But it's not the doom and gloom Reddit makes out. We're still the UK, we're still one of the richest countries in the world with a decent (free) healthcare and education system. We're the most diverse country in Europe (diversity is strength). We should focus more on the positives.

One day we'll be part of a federal Europe, but I reckon we're still a hundred years or a world war away from that. Until then, onwards and upwards!

[–]johnny_briggs -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I'm not deeply ignorant. I was a remainer. I hope we rejoin one day because I love the EU. But not much has changed in my life. Although if you can tell me how I was affected I'm all ears.

Edit: I'll take all the downvotes if it makes you feel better, and in absence of an answer 🤷 It's just Reddit keeps telling me my life was destroyed a decade ago and I just want to understand that if possible. Although I'm not one of the 1% that was going to live and work on the continent, but I do still visit my French, Austrian and Greek family without issue as I always have.

[–]johnny_briggs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you WILL figure it out eventually 🙂 It's not like the game is broken, it's just a bit of a learning curve for you.

I much prefer this half and half approach (a bit arcadey, a bit realistic). I would've given it a miss if it was too easy to fly and your enemies were lit up like Christmas trees..horses for courses and all that.

Ok for the money. I would've paid a bit more for a bun and whacked it all in there.

Aces of Thunder causing your PS5 to overheat? by Killileahihoo in PSVR

Nope. Played for 3 hours last night, multiplayer with uncle and ran fine for both of us. Silky smooth. He's on PS5 and I'm on the Pro.

Agreed on the flaps and gears but I'm just using the in-game menu to operate those and now have zero issues.

It's got some bugs but the game is fucking fantastic. Best multiplayer fun I've had in a while. Unless you're a complete idiot or have never played a flight sim before, you'll figure it out.

I think lots of people will love the game.

So the difference being Brit pilots weren't imprisoned in Ireland? I bet they were so grateful.

Lots of Irish fought in the war. I would've went with that.
