RalfiDude's F-14 Video

hopefully the music is just in the vid, not in game every time you do any combat?

was added in the video.

What can I say? It was annoying enough to distract my attention from the video. In my view, this is bad enough to be mentioned.

Okay, that is fair enough! I agree that its sub optimal, but I disagree that it distracted from the video and that its bad enough to be mentioned on its own, If you perhaps had said something positive first I probably would not have reacted the way I did the first time :)

But he is right, in my opinion. For me this static sound is extremly anoying and i hope it is not in the release version or at least it is a simple sound file we can delete.

I seriously am thinking about ejecting Jester everytime i will fly my F-14 because of that. :devil: ;)

There's no forum rule for that ;)

I wish there was, would make the world a better place :D

I never said he is not right, it just struck me in a weird way that that was the only thing he had to say about it, not realizing it was such a big deal for him. Im fine with him thinking like that, he has all the rights to.

If you want to see it from the positive side, if this anoying static sound in the "Jester menu" is the only thing/problem we have to "complaine" about HB did everything else right. ;)

Bet your ass they did! :D

i think in the December blog about the f14 they talked about how the rio cockpit is still placeholder graphics but everything works in it or something like that

I'm waiting to see how the RIO cockpit works to decide if I purchase it or not.

That static noise you hear when Jester menu is open should be removed. It should only be present when Jester speaks, not any time you open that menu.

I agree; it is, dare I say, shockingly bad design given how unrepentantly awesome everything else about the HB F-14 is so far, and it stands out for that reason.

I think the static noise fits in well. It's open communication between you and JESTER while you're making the decision on what to say.

You're supposed to think BEFORE you press the transmit button :lol:

Also, that's a nasty intercom if it has that much static. Squelch not found :P

Its EA so stuff will change.....no rocket pods on the belly ever(or any direct fire weapons). Stations 1 and 8 only for the pods...….and only from airfields.

Not every system is squeaky clean you could say. ;) Aircraft get worn out in life, so the radios weren't probably the best for its time.

The noise probably won't be removed- it serves as nice feedback. It's way too loud currently, however- it will be subtle and not annoying.

Pretty sure I know where you guys got that sound...:smilewink:

Video and F-14 is crazy good...Only thing that caught my ear was a couple of times Jester’s voice tone/inflection didn’t match the circumstances: First of the MiGs got shot down quickly and Jester said “Mig is down” (iirc) with almost a sigh, like it had been a long drawn-out yet close battle.

I know they recorded 12,004,672 different inflections of the same sayings, so there’s bound to be some mismatched combos.

Serves as nice feedback? I am confused - feedback for what?... just in case you don't notice the massive cirular selection menu in front of your face? :lol:

I am sure the regular options will be getting their own Voice Attack commands in any case.

Also a little worried about having to type in a name of your waypoint - for those VR pilots that don't have a keyboard anywhere near their flight rig (why would you?). Immediately thought will need another VA command to "Type Waypoint" and "Type Target" I suppose. No option to just save each WP with a default 1,2,3 etc - no typing required? Even cooler - along bottom of waypoint input box in F10 maybe have a few default radio buttons labelled IP, TGT, WP etc maybe - and you just click the title for the WP you want?

Really looking fwd to getting my hands on this aircraft!

+1.

But, if it's toned down a bit I guess that's a lot better. :)

That Walkman... a Ralfidude embellishment or a thing like the Viggen?

hahah!

Given that there’s an entire album of music that’s been produced with / for the Tomcat, I’m gonna guess it’s a thing...

Seems like a Ralfidude embellishment to me ;)

Not sure what embellishment it is since ralfidude delivered these types of videos since the MiG-21 review video.

After looking at ralfidude's video and comparing it to videos we've seen in the past month or so from HB themselves, there's no wingflex.

It was clearly visible in HB's on videos but not ralifidue's? :(
