I was flying about over east London today, just messing about, flying under bridges, straffing buildings etc, as you do. When I hit something I shouldn't have...

Storage tanks! These things go off like small nukes!!!


Make sure you shoot them at long range and turn away early


If not you will take damage


Blast area is massive, took this shot to show damaged glass then noticed that blast wave had reached right across the Thames!


Of course if you get really close frown




Don't think I'll bother the ground crew with this one


Managed to get it right and circled back to see the damage, secondary explosions still going off, (top left)


Side note: During blast FPS was down to 1/2 a frame per second so make sure your nose up before rounds hit smile

You mean the performance mods? Nope, haven't tried them yet. Which ones should I install?



S.


The SSAO is definitely worth a quick try - it's easy to do and is reversible. Plus you'd never notice it was off, apart from the increased FPS.

Could anyone try bombing them, and show some shots from a fairly high altitude? I'm just getting memories of those clips from the later stages of the war, showing bombs going off in the rhineland, with the massive smoke plumes towering up....

Man, I wanna see some big explosions too! I don't know how Bounty did that. I just emptied all of my 20mm-ammo plus a lot of MG bullets (inlcuding incindiaries) into a single storage tank ... no Ka-Boom!. Tried it again twice more to be sure, but nothing exploded... frown

Wonder if it is location specific. Any of the ones round this area work



The mission is the London sight seeing one

Testing out a scramble mission I'm doing in the FMB.

Rain coming in and wingman wonders if I'll get up ok


Take some blast damage as I get airborne, lose a panel, right main gear and left wheel has lost it tyre
Hmm getting down is going be fun!


Wingman isn't overly impressed with the towers sense of humor...
