Hello /k/,

What is the best, most tacticool /k/ approved air combat game for PC?

Preferably one with an F-4 Phantom II because I love that thing

I remember I played the fuck out of Ace Combat X on the PSP a long time ago but I feel like Ace Combat might be too arcade-y.

Thanks

DCS World and BMS Falcon. I'd recommend you download DCS World, which is free, and then buy the F-15C module for air combat. Should be a pretty good mix of fun and realism that isnt aracedy at all. BMS is unbelievably complex so don't even bother unless you're really serious and have a ton of free time. Go to the /vg/ catalog and open /sing/ if want more info (once you've read the pastebin)

>>30202526

I have no desire whatsoever to play these games but Falcon BMS is mindblowingly cool:

Damn you almost need a degree in aeronautical physics to play these

I'm sure they're amazing once you get it down though. I keep reading stories of people not being able to fly in a straight line with that and crashing
>>
You might also try Wings Over Europe/Wings Over Vietnam. Older games but with a ton of user made mods and add ons freely available.
>>
>>30202793
You can learn DCS F-15C in a night if you watch a few simple tutorials, flying it is really easy, (expect for landings) utilizing it is the hard part. Definitely don't bother with BMS tho.
>>
A game by the name of Combat Air Patrol 2 came out yesterday, it's basically a Harrier simulator a la DCS.
>>
>>30202872
Is the F-15 the easiest to learn or are they all similar? Like could you learn how to fly an F-15 then jump into an A-10 or something with minimal problems
>>
>>30202526
War Thunder if you wanna become a Naziboo with the Ho229 or basically become air fucked by the new death star the Tu-4. Ace is made by Bandai Namico, they are not known for simulation, they are known for fun games. I agree with DCS world and Falcon BMS.

>>30202927
The F-15C along with some other planes were taken form a game called Flaming cliffs 3 and put into DCS. Since Flaming Cliffs is a game and not a simulator like DCS the planes taken form that game are much simpler and much cheaper. The F-15C has a basic simulation of the systems, but a full simulation of the flight mechanics, so it flys realistically with out being ultra complex. The other modules, like the A-10C have a cockpit where every button can be clicked on, and do what it does in the real plane. This is why the length of the manual for the F-15C is a fraction of the A-10C's manual length. There is a simpler A-10(A-10A) if you want to fly that but going form the F-15C to the A-10C would take a long time.
>>
>>30202927
All the Flaming Cliffs aircraft (A10,F15,SU27,SU25,MIG29) are relatively simple to fly and could take a day to learn.
All the other full fidelity aircraft (A10C,MIG21,etc) take a couple days and a manual to learn.

I see. That makes a lot of sense that they'd do that.
Thanks
>>
>>30203179
If you want a good idea of how hard the F-15C will be before you buy it , try the Su-25T that comes free with DCS world and play the tutorials. It's basically the Russian A-10.
>>

>>30202526

DCS is the best. Just don't become one of those faggots that treats it like a real simulator.
>>
>>30203339
Personally I think Ace Combat Assault Horizon is incredibly realistic and is a great representation of the responsibilities and abilities of a fighter pilot
>>
>>30203458
warthunder isn't really a sim, you know
even if it says "sim" on one of the game modes

What do you mean it isn't a real simulator?

I can tell you for a fact that after an hour in the F-15C module I am fully prepared to jump into a jet and kill rooskies))))

Follow what this anon is saying, also the Mirage 2000C is a full on sim and it's pretty easy to learn. However I'll start with the F-15C/Flaming Cliffs 3 because it gives you a basic idea on how to fly and you won't get fucked in MP.

Also warn you that if you go on /simg/ and talk about FC3 you might spawn a few disgruntled autists but their be people that will be able to help you.

IL2 Sturmovik and it's spin offs are solid simulators if second world War air combat is your thing.

>>30202526
Strike fighters 2 has a pretty good f-4
You can jump in one and shoot down some ancient russian bombers if you click instant action, its a decent game that can be sim or arcade depending on what you are in the mood for
>>
Wings over europe is like a lower end easier to use game of dcs and such but more realistic than ace combat insuch of how weapons work and how the ai fights with you and against you plus theres nukes
