Tell me the easiest way to visually spot planes in DCS. Those tiny fucking things are impossible to see.

They need their own fucking general

The thread died because cuc pactbabbys couldn't handle being BTFO by sound arguments from rational and unbiased experts on the current state of Red Dragon.

Impostors.

>>128732063
They're disabled on most multiplayer servers, though.

So besides the Snezka losing its optics for price reduction, and the Gornos losing the BTRs, was anything else in that patch shit?

I mean there was a bunch of small positive changes like T-62s getting 5% more accuracy, or the T-72s dropping 5 points, which are kinda meaningless but still positive changes. But was anything else truly a shit change? Enlighten me if I'm wrong please.

>>128732307

A good change would be removing all R-77s from redfor.

>>128732523
For what purpose?

Because the best two air forces rightfully belong to Uncle Sam.

>>128733227
I didn't think the US airforce was worse off than Redfor, other than the F-14 being in the naval tab because REASONS.

>>128733494

The Soviets can field more F&F radar guided missiles than the US which is straight bullshit.

>>128731191
I have trouble with it too. I usually give up and have to turn on labels because I'm a shitter, I rationalize it because I normally play pretty zoomed out since I don't have either a headtracker or a third hand to mouse the camera around while I'm flying.

It also pisses me off that when airplanes are leaving behind chemtrails the render distance is too short and if they're far enough away they only render if you look at them from a specific angle, and this is with all the graphics settings maxed out including draw distance.

How does a thread for so many different games die so often/go so slow???

4chan has a fuck load of people that are super into military shit. I don't get how these games aren't more popular.

>>128733585
2 Yak-141s at trained or 1 at elite.
2 Su-27PU at elite (2 cards of 1).
1 Su-27M at veteran.
2 Mig-29Ms at rookie or 1 at veteran.
(1 Mig-31M at hardened.)
vs
2 F-15Cs at elite (2 cards of 1).
2 F-16C Block 52s at trained or 1 at elite.
(2 F-14s at trained or 1 at elite in LOL THE NAVAL TAB).


Yeah I guess the Soviets do have an advantage in F&F radar guided missiles, but instead of stripping them of the R-77s, maybe give more AMRAAMs to the US?

>>128734164
Because those people into military shit like to just obsess over the aesthetics of inanimate objects, don't have the aptitude or willpower to put in the time to learn a slightly complex video game, and are too autistic to deal with slight "inaccuracies" (see: slavaboo, hatobaby, etc) for their favorite weapon/vehicle/military unit.

I'm surprised they're even able to get to /k/ on their own

>>128734649
Actually, this raises another question from me.

How many of these fighters are the Soviet players actually taking? Because that's 5 cards (6 with the Mig-31M) right there, which doesn't leave them room for SEAD or bombers and whatnot. Meanwhile the US only uses up 3 cards to bring all 4 of it's fighters.

And let's not forget how a lot of Soviets use the Mig-25 for their fighter.

>>128734649

But even for the US F&F missiles shouldn't be on fucking everything. It makes more sense to just take them away from shit that shouldn't have them(this includes AMRAAMs from other blufor nations and the fucking Rafale).

>>128734164
Most people would rather shitpost than actually play video games. Also, a metric fuckload of elitism and fangays.

>>128735073

Its more of an issue with airborne decks(the thing the US should be much better than the USSR at but isn't)

>>128730239
Who /FinalBlitzkrieg/ hype here?

I think I'm the only CM player in this general.

>>128733227
If they are the best then the slavshit R-77 shouldn't pose a problem.

The OT-65A Vydra buff seems a bit overboard, with the new stats thats a huge amount of HE it's going to be spitting for the price. However I never see the unit in the first place so I don't know how it will end up playing out, The Dyna definitely doesn't need a price nerf if it gets 2275m range, and the buff for the Feibao was too small to accomplish anything and the buff for the other 4 missile top end sead was nonexistent.

Also the snezka change would be great, NSWP is dying to get a good combat recon. They already have another exceptional optics ground platform so not much is being lost.

It's bizarre how, despite the planefags being the biggest shitposters, can't fly to save their lives and sound like literal children, actually have the money to afford their considerably expensive hobby while the purist 'wargamers' are constantly begging for cracks.

>>128797290
The nuclear bombs are shit unfortunately. Apparently the developers said that they are opposed to nuclear weapons so the "nuclear bomb" for the MiG-21 is just a conventional bomb with a really big explosion. Conveniently that excuse also allows them to not have to make all the lighting effects and mushroom cloud and shockwave and stuff for a proper nuclear explosion. Also makes it a damn shame that the F-86 module has a fully developed LABS bombing system but no nukes that would actually require using over the shoulder bombing to avoid blowing yourself up.

>>128798767
>Apparently the developers said that they are opposed to nuclear weapons
That's not really the reason for the undermodeling of the nuke, it's just a fun gimmick that's not worth wasting dev time on. like Naval in RD

>>128798767
But you don't need LABS for over the shoulder bombing, especially for a nuke.

The thing that makes me really angry is the cockpit lights being disabled, how the fuck are you supposed to fly at night? Even real-life slavshitters didn't have to fly their plane by the light of a flashlight. How long could that possible take to fix? What else is really missing though, all I've noticed are a couple of minor bugs sometimes and the cockpit icing and pitot tube icing still need to be implemented but I guess those are pretty minor things.

>>128801284
Well only the flood lights are broken, the dial & panel lights work fine.

>>128800449
LABS was meant for accurate toss/shoulder bombing, I have still yet to see its accuracy though and can achieve similar results just winging it and you don't need super accuracy with a nuke, toss bombing became far more accurate with modern CCRP systems and guided munitions.

idk about Bohemia but for ED & LN morals are explicitly not the reason these things are not included, afaik BST are actually waiting for ED to get on and redo the explosion fx so they can see if they can make napalm happen. As for LN and the nuke the line in the manual is a throwaway 'joke', if they were against nukes it wouldn't be included at all. It's basic implementation is as far as I know like many things in the MiG, not 100% final. They may be still waiting for ED to redo explosion fx or they could have just moved on to more important things like their 3+ aircraft in production.

I'll second this, DCS patch notes are shit. They forgets things and the format is different every time.

>>128809648
They've steadily been getting worse and are at the point where patch notes seem to cover maybe 5% at most of what was changed. Can't blame them too much I guess though since the lists would be pretty long. BMS 4.33 didn't have any patch notes because it would've been too much of a chore. There's also the issue of translating shit to English since many of the devs are slavs.

I wish they would at least mention generally what was changed if they won't do specifics though.

>>128822330
>OP unit
literally its only good point is its speed and bomb load
Shityt 10% ECM

And what do anzacs have to deal with AA?

They have no sead and no artillery.

Hornets are better because they actually have a chance of surviving. If ANZACs could get two it'd be another story but at this point I barely even bother using it.

It's the same case as NK, factions shit on because they are part of a coalition so buffing it would make the coalition OP, even though commonwealth is one of the weakest coalitions anyway.

>literally the only good point of that bomber is its bomb load

>>128824303
whats your point?

It's expensive, has ultra low survivability dude to it's lack of ECM.

Compare it to the deagle, which still has an incredible bomb load and high speed, and has a great ECM of 40%.

F35 Draken Wons, also good bomb load, not as big as F-111C but still fast, ECM 30%

It's not the worst bomber in the game but it isn't OP if you can call it once, have it kill a few units and have it shot down. If it were to have higher ECM I would completely agree with you that it's OP but at the moment its just a one hit wonder

>>128824835
It might change to two cards with 4 1000kg bombs each, which is awesome for anzac.

>>128825825
That would be great compared to what it is now, and two cards isn't a problem because it's not like anzacs have a wide selection of aircraft anyway.

>>128825825
>two cards
Meant two per card.

Pros:

Badass Name
Shits rockets
Decent accuracy atgms
Cheap as shit
Availability
8 hp heli platform

Basically, run in groups of 2-3 and use them in flank attacks. You can bleed peoples adn dry with these and use them to spot for mortar strikes on AA relatively cheaply. Always seems to pay off.

Does the IRST require a certain missle to use? Or does any missle work once you lock someone up with it?

>>128800449
>You have to admit that's a flawless cop-out excuse, though.
Nah, it makes them sound like a bunch of absolute cucks with completely illogical moral standards.

>>128840435
IR missiles only. Theoretically you could use it with ARH missiles if you're within the range that the seeker can acquire a lock by itself I guess, don't think it works in DCS though. Does the R-77 even have a bore sight fire mode like the AIM-120?

>>128840435
You can lock a target with IRST with a SARH missile selected and once you launch the missile it will turn on your radar and start using it.

>>128842398

So the R27ET right? and locking and shooting those with the IRST doesn't give any warnings right?

Anyway to check if the target is a friendly using IRST, or do i have to flip on radar real quick.

>>128843979
Correct, no warning.

Yes, you have to either blip your radar quick or be able to ID the target in some other way such as knowing where all of your friendlies are, having a wing man/AWACS ID the target for you, or visual ID.

Just finished the 1st mission of the new F15 red flag campaign.
Its ok but seems to be lacking, I was hoping for alot of radio chatter for immersion but its just Wags and ATC you ever hear.
The entire range has been split in two with a Russian invasion of Ukraine scenario (red occupy west and blue east) with strict airspace and ROE restrictions, there is also quite a bit of "fluff" to go along with the missions in the pdf variety which somewhat helps the immersion.

I have Sea Kings in the area using dipping sonar and Nimrods dropping sonobuoys everywhere. I briefly had contact again, for about 3 minutes, and then it's gone again.

What would a Soviet nuclear sub be doing a low depth, only showing up on sonar for a few minutes every 15 minutes?

I have no idea what the 1/3 rule is, though.

Upside Nimrods just bagged a Russkie sub.

>>128868743
It means that you aren't sending up all your aircraft at once (with the 1/3rd rule on) only a third go out at a time so you have a continuous strike happening, rather than all at once.

>>128868743
The 1/3 rule makes sure only 1/3 of the aircraft assigned to a mission are airborne at once. It's useful for long-term missions like AWACS or Tanker patrols. The rule basically automates rotating aircraft through to make sure something is airborne and operating at all times so you don't have gaps in your coverage.

>>128868906
Do aircraft automatically know when to use tankers if there is a tanker mission going on?

>>128869589

According to the devs,
"If a tanker is airborne, aircraft that can refuel from it (and have their doctrine option "use refuel" set to YES) will base their bingo calculations on it and not their home base."

>>128869589
>>128869975

Also, here's a dev post about it from the start of 2015 which explains in more detail.

Is the MG151/20 overpowered in DCS? Or it really was that lethal? Or am I confusing it with the MK108?

>>128865158
What game is that?

>>128881752
>the only way he can kill an F-15C is with an ambush
I bet you think yourself as a good fighter, since that what most delusional slavboos in DCS do

air quake shitter plz go

>>128898287
I'm no aircraft expert, but are 20mm/30mm autocannon rounds doing that much damage inconsistent with reality? The 30mm in particular was designed to destroy bombers.

Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations (CMANO). Specifically the Northern Inferno expansion.

>20mm
Yes.

>30mm
No, at least not the MK108 rounds. But I can't tell if what hit that Mustang was 20mm or 30mm.

>>128904047
They're 20mm rounds, only the K-4 has the MK108 in the game. Any recommended reading for how much damage the MG151/20 did?

>>128904410
Watch guncam films.

DCS should be played alone by yourself in singleplayer while sitting in the /wgg/ teamspeak muted. Air quake is for 104th shitters. SU-27 is god's plane.

>>128902192
tactics>whatever it is you do.

>>128904605
In fact, don't even play with AI wingmen. Also take off all your weapons. Free Flight only.

Men of War AS 2 is apparently on sale on the humble store if anyone is interested. I wasn't tracking it during the steam sale, so I don't know how the numbers compare.

>>128904586
Any good ones in particular? Most guncam films for German planes usually involve a lot of missing.

>SU-27 fly's worse than the mig 21
This plane handles like dogshit, the missiles are dogshit, and the autopilot is dogshit. Why the fuck would you guys shill this plane. No Wonder people like the f-15.

Not really, no. Lerche aside most of the shit in IL-2 actually flew at least once, even factoring in mods.

>>128912586

They arent Red Skulls senpai

>>128910752
Played that one already, I dont like the turn limit in missions.

Also I meant something like Red Dragon or MoW

>>128903942
Is that from the same dudes that made WITP?

>>128913537

Nope. CMANO is made by (most?) of the team that worked on the old Harpoon series.

The BTR-80/90 is fully functional as IFV, anti-tank vehicle, light vehicle destroyer, makeshift AA, etc.

What can't it do?

>>128915190
It cant bring the soviet union back.

Asshole from /k/ trying to get into Red Dragon here.

Is the Sheridan and Swedish StuG worth the activation points?
