[@Nassault]

​@WhomItMayConcern Thanks, that is an interesting question,, I filmed a scene of one of the Omega getting shot down, and had it play after the first viper fired their missile, but it didn't really work out for me, I am not sure why. Maybe it was that I always felt like this mission is just notoriously a breeze in the AC Community so adding higher stakes didn't feel right maybe. It also took up a good chunk of time I needed in the timeline if I were to also fit in all of the action I did. I perhaps could have shown the two vipers being shot down at the same time, like the transports. As to your last point, showing the other pilots behaving better is something I've slowly been working on, particularly because dogfight cinematography is really kind of hard for me, from shooting to editing. Most notably this video was a test to see how much better I can get it, particularly with the Rigaux sequence. Eventually it would be nice to show various dogfights in the same detail as the Rigaux one in one video. So all in all I would suspect more friendlies being downed in the future! Also, the most notable change was that Rigaux in this video was flown by an actual pilot, whereas the Vipers in this video, as well as the pilots in the other previous videos, were mostly AI. The AI in DCS is very uncreative with their maneuvers, so testing Rigaux in this case opens up much more options to a dynamic, 'real feeling' dogfight between two actual humans. Something that's long overdue I agree.

[@whale2870]

Kinda ironic considering only one guy was seen getting out of the big planes...

[@Nassault]

@@whale2870 tbf, many books I read of WWII air combat indicate that fighter pilots would sometimes treat each other differently compared to bomber/transport crews, specifically after being shot down. Plenty of cargo/bomber crews had their parachutes shot up, but that fate was spared for some fighter pilots who were recognized by their victors. I kind of went with that, that Rigaux was the only one on Mobius' level, the only one who made him actually try, so he's the only one who gets acknowledged.

[@Battlemage15]

@@Nassault I'd also look further back; war is a nasty, terrible exercise in politics. It's a shame those transports need to be shot down and that a lot of those within wont get out, but that's war for you. I'd wager Mobius takes no pleasure in it; it's the mission and the war needs to be won and this helps win it. Rigaux arrived late and could do no more but avenge the transports, but for him I suppose that was enough. He singled out Mobius and in spite of all of Omega being there, they stayed out of it so there could be a proper dogfight; a proper duel. Something out of history long gone, myth and legend. Stigler escorted the B17 back across the Channel, when by all rights he should have finished the bomber off. Mobius and Rigaux conducted an honorable duel when by all rights Omega should have jumped in a removed the threat immediately. Every once in a while, in the middle of the endless Hell that is war, there can be a flower of chivalry. It is a rare thing; the exception, not the rule. But we tend to recognize the exceptional because we should.

[@LouseGrouse]

@@Battlemage15 one of my favourite things about AC04 is how it treats being a fighter pilot in war. It isn't a good thing, but it's your job to take your orders and come back in one piece. Often after missions you'll receive mention of casualties, sometimes a character you heard over the radio is replaced by another at the end of the mission. You're left to fill in the blanks. It's subtle in its anti-war theme, and extremely effective because of it, not to mention how it humanised the enemy. I love AC5 but it's very loud with its anti-war themes. Not a bad thing by any means at all, but less effective than 04's from a storytelling standpoint imo.
