Since the Maniac hate thread is turning into a missile debate, I figured we should dedicate a thread to the subject.
The debate is regarding how realistic the WC4 missile damage is (since the majority of fighters get slagged with a single missile of any type)
I think on the same token, depending on which difficulty you play the game, the gun damage ratio is equally unrealistic since I often find myself plinking away at the ass end of a Hellcat for what seems like an eternity with full guns (just for reference, this is usually at "Hard" difficulty since the evasive action of enemy fighters becomes more realistic IMHO)
And one other thing, does anyone have a theory why the same decoys can throw off a missile that tracks heat signature (HS) as well as the ones that lock on to the actual image of your fighter (ImRec)?
Lastly, my most important question is regarding what type of damage ratio you guys think is most realistic since I'm currently working on my fanfic that will have much dogfighting. I'm planning on the enemy evasive actions to be based off the "Hard" difficulty settings of WC4, while gun damage will be something close to "Veteran"
Any Thoughts?
