I'm still salty that we're getting the most boring harrier and not a radar equipped one or a GR9 but it's good to know Razbam aren't wasting all their time on BR meme shitplanes.

No he didn't?
Also, jeez wags is shit at taxiing.
>>
>>143785313
You will get the radar equipped one (and the GR9 if they can help it) but not until ED pulls its finger out of its arse and finishes the ground radar tech.
>>
>>143785653
I actually doubt we'll see a GR9 after this variant, it just wouldn't sell well if there had already been a USMC harrier available. I doubt extra pylons and fancy TGPs would encourage anyone but the hardest britaboo to buy a second very similar variant of an aircraft they already own.
>>
>>143785842
Wouldn't the GR9 be literally FREE money for RAZBAM?
>>
>>143786027
Ehhhh, idk. If the GR9 was released, their AV-8 would have already been out for ages. Personally for me to buy a second harrier variant it'd have to be significantly different, like a Sea Harrier (either version) or something.
>>
>>143786276
I mean, making a GR9 wouldn't take that much effort if you already made the AV-8, right? And besides you can be rest assured that someone will always buy your shit (see: VEAO, shitty trainers, WW2 birds that have absolutely fuckall to do IN DCS).
>>
>>143786537
The problem comes from all the systems modelling. The night attack version and the AV-8B use US system, the later having the radar from the F-18; the GR9 however uses an entirely different system design (which is one of the reasons they're not doing it first despite it winning the vote, they don't have the documentation for it).

Upgrading the NA to the B would probably be quite simple, the GR9 however would likely mean having to redo half the whole module.

Man is it hard to see anyone, at 1600x900 other aircraft seem to be basically invisible unless they're right on top of you

I did the dogfight instant action mission with the SU-25T and after the first head-on pass couldn't pick up the A-10s again without cheating with external views

Do you have any advice for situational awareness? Or is it simply a matter of getting gud

Here's what I mean when I say these guys are invisible, the right is zoomed out only barely from the left, but it's like a switch is flipped

is this the model enlargement kicking in? Should I try turning it off?
>>
>>143802808
>is this the model enlargement kicking in? Should I try turning it off?
Yes, no. Try setting it to high, maybe use labels for getting you accustomed, and keep this in mind: in all other sims model enlargement is native, and something done out of necessity. In DCS it became a thing like 4 months ago tops (and some suspect only because the devs tried playing with the Oculus Rift and couldn't see jackshit, which sounds really plausible) and its handled like ass. Most of the retarded community is actually against model enlargement too.

All the IR missiles are like that right now, shit's retarded, ironically they somehow fucked the IR seekers up while patching the radar.

I've been able to have some fun with it being fucked up like that in multiplayer/blue flag, though, if you're in a 1v1 fight you can get some sneaky off-boresight shots off in the current 80s blue flag mission.

F-15s generally have more than enough energy to outrun them, but if you make them go slow, you can punish 'em with the shitty r-60s still, r-13s just eat them up as well, I've just been using the r-60ms to spam with the extra off-boresight capability.

Also it's basically mandatory to use the "game" IR missile pipper rather than keeping it locked to the center like it is in the real MiG, otherwise you literally have no way of finding out what the fuck your missiles are trying to aim at.

Leatherneck is a mess.

Because they keep ripping the wings off of Su-27s.

Apparently throttling back and watching your speed are too hard, so is fighting with careful movements of the stick so to not over-exert the aircraft.

I've been destroyed F-15's by my self in the MiG-29 because I can actually defeat missiles 9/10.

In the Su-27, the only way not to break your wings is slowing way the fuck down, but then you get hit because you are too slow.

I would kill for the PFM to come out, it will make the plane even better.

>Do you think I fly it because of SFM?
Yeah, you fly it because your wings keep snapping. That's going to start happening to your new plane waifu in a sec too.
Besides, everyone knows that the Su-27 is more agile.
>>
>>143814780
No plane can withstand 14G repeatedly, and the F-15 can in game with full tanks as well, they should be ripping off at that.
>>
>>143813420
>What're you going to do when the real flight model comes out?
This is what everybody told Su-27 pilots and then when it got its PFM it became faster and more maneuverable. The same is going to happen to the MiG-29. It should be able to pull some crazy alpha but right now it's hard limited because of SFM.
>>
>>143814780

You're an idiot.
Do you honestly think that having the 27's wings snap is realistic? If you do, then you are fucking lost and I can't help you.

The MiG-29 literally will not break irl. The pilot will pass out/die before that ever happens.

Keep pulling maximum G's at all times in your F-15 you ace pilot.
>>
>>143815152
>>143815326
ED is going to make you mig break into a thousand little bits. Mark my words.
>>
>>143815326
Su-27's wings snapping is realistic, anon, though it's probably easily arguable that it's happening way too easily.

Though honestly, what we have now is a massive fucking improvement from the old Su-27 flight model, which was capable of pulling 50+G without anything happening to it.

If the F-15 was updated to the same standard of shittiness I'd be fine with it, it doesn't make much sense that they updated one without the other being ready to implement at the same time.

that's the excuse the F-15 is beta as well, so it'll be all over the place.

The wing snapping isn't to bad and the su-27 can pull really tight turns at lower G, but it's obvious the plane isn't meant to have a short throw stick that's not mechanically linked to the plane.

BMS ops WHEN

Same guys have made a bunch of cool cockpits for BMS.

I'm downloading one of their big packs to see if it adds everything like they say.

Should spice up our BMS ops a bit.

The community (read: F-15 idiots) hates the idea of model enlargement. They only play multiplayer, and only use the F-15, which has the best radar, and best BVR weapons in the game. They want to ensure that not only are they able to dominate through lobbing slammers and running, but that they are invisible if they close to WVR.

The worst part is that a forum member came up with a pretty damned good visibility fix that's a decent compromise between realism and playability, and the mod who is a huge opponent of visibility enhancement (who also has never flown IRL) removed the post from the general forum and tossed it into the 'mods' section which nobody really reads.

Fuck ED. Someone needs to come along with a truly modern combat simulator and eat their fucking lunch.
>>

Su-27's FCS doesn't allow you full elevator authority at high speeds IRL. ED are just fucking retards who will do anything to ensure the F-15 is king since it's insanely popular among the teenage crowd.

I handle the Huey, Gazelle, Hip, A-10C, F-86 and all the FC3 planes just fine with a Logitech X3D and no throttle or pedals. Just map the twist function to the rudder pedals and use the slider as a throttle.
>>
>>143822063
Then don't bind everything unrealistically?

My stick is just for toggling weapons selection around in MiG-21/Mirage, with some limited radar TGP slew control on the spare HAT, on the throttle I just keep "flight control" stuff bound like flaps and airbrakes.
>>
>>143822063
How do you deal with binding all the hats that are used in BMS (TMS, DMS, CMS, radar cursor, and trim I guess but that's not important) without having at least 3 hats with a HOTAS?

Genuine question, not even shitposting.
>>
>>143822294

>>143822202
Here, I just use keybindings.
>>
>>143821380
To be honest, hotas is overrated. You can easily mount a stick with built in throttle on top of something and place it in front of you at a comfortable height, but with a hotas you're going to have to have it on the table, way too high up for comfort.

>>143822285

Ok well thats different. Someone in this thread thinks you should bind literally everything, because "In real life the pilot can flip switches and press buttons without looking"

>>143822294

I have TMS bound to my one hat switch, because its the most used.

Radar slew is arrow keys, because its what I use in DCS.

The most important functions of DMS and CMS are single buttons that I have on the stick, but i have them all mapped to like CTRL+Arrow Keys, Shift+ Arrow keys, ect.

The thing about BMS thats neat, is the only thing you techincally HAVE TO bind is, is HOTAS. Every single other thing can be clicked or pressed, and its really satisfying to do so in BMS because the cursor sticks to clickable objects and there's good feedback.

Don't be a dumb cunt and add a modifier to your joystick and then use the hat for that as well.

>>143824131
I used to have my radar shit bound to arrow keys as well, but honestly, it's way nicer to have that on the joystick, rather that constantly fiddling with the keyboard.
>>
>>143823979
>telling people what to bind
not worth the effort senpai
>>
>>143824304

My other hand rests right on the arrow keys, and shift(my PTT), and can still control the throttle.

I don't think I'll ever use anything else until I get a full HOTAS
>>
>>143824383
You're missing out, mate. You could easily bind teamspeak to your joystick too and then have both of your hands there comfortably.
>>
How do I keep my screen from momentarily freezing whenever I look at an enemy plane in blue flag
>>
>>143823594
Anything beyond close combat weapons modes and TGP slew/angling the antenna up/down gets done with clicking.

I can't even arm my weapons without having to look around and click shit. I prefer it this way, honestly, I just set up for what I'm expecting to engage before I get into the hot zone and work from there. Had a neat dogfight last night where I had to try to fumble for the gun arm with my spare left hand on the mouse while keeping control of the plane while trying to max-perform with an f-15 without touching the throttle until I had the fucker ready to go.

Again, it's not perfect, because it takes way longer to use the mouse and do shit than it would with an actual hand, but it's a bit bitter than instantly getting everything accomplished.

Plus it gave the F-15 time to get away so the fight was a little more interesting, otherwise I would've merked him without having much fun
>>
>>143822712
What do you mean HOTAS needs to be high up?
The whole point of HOTAS is to have buttons available to the pilot without the need for the pilot to take their hands off the stick to flip switches and press buttons and their eyes off the target outside of the cockpit; you're not suppose to be staring at the hats & buttons on your HOTAS
>>
>>143825414
It's not ergonomic. I like to have my stick basically at crotch level, like real pilots would.

>>
>>143838926

is there ever any reason to run your jammer, really

like every missile in DCS has a home-on-jam function so unless you're well out of RMax it just seems like a good way to give away your azimuth regardless of the guy's PRF settings

And no radar other than the MiG-21s has ground clutter modeled so not being able to see your enemy's altitude isn't that big of a deal either.
>>
>>143839721
denying first lock and range information is pretty important, it also raises the MAR
>>
>>143839871
I dunno, it just sort of seems irrelevant when the enemy can just pop a slammer your way and have a pretty good chance of getting a hit if you're within range of the missile- like yeah, I know in HOJ mode the missile flies a less effective intercept, but still.

I dunno, I'm really hype for more 80STEK fighters so that there's more to combat than just notching slammers/firing off slammers as soon as the target is within the DLZ. Having radars that are susceptible to ground clutter and other interference, missiles that don't home-on-jam, having aspect play a greater part in detection ranges- all that is gonna be baller as fuck.

>>143839871

>>

minimum abort range, the distance which you can turn and run safely without any chance of the missile killing you.
>>
>>143839871
The effect of the jammer basically wears off before you can get to effective amraam firing range anyway, though.
>>
>>143841275
All that really means here is that as long as you can burn through, he hasn't fired an effective missile at you.

Not really all that reassuring, but since missiles don't loft I suppose it's a bit safer in DCS.
>>
>>143841767
He wouldn't be able to launch an effective missile at you anyway. All you have to do to defeat a long range launch like that is to pull your nose up a bit when it gets close, jammer or no jammer.

pls no bully I took a long break from sims in general shortly after DCS A-10C I still have the original DCS Black Shark in my steam library
>>
>>143839721
>>143840684
I just turn the ECM off when I get within 30 miles or so, that's when F-15s burn through, other Mirages at like 40nm or so.

ECM doesn't matter within that range, and the jammer being on just allows HOJ to do its work, so I try to remember to cut the fucker off when I'm dancing with aim-7s so it's just one less thing to worry about.

I mean, even though you can jam an F-15 for 10nm longer than he can jam you in the Mirage, it doesn't fucking matter when he's still got a slight range advantage on you, so having him locked first doesn't really do much for it, and the same's basically true of the Su-27/MiG-29, unless you start foxing shit off out of DLZ just to force him defensive

>>
>>143851146
Because of the shit-ass radar-assisted gunsnake/reticule the Mirage has.

After my experience earlier trying to use it to gun an A-10, I really think it's easier to just use the standard gunsnake and just line the little crosses up with the target's wings, I've had much better luck actually hitting shit that way in the past.

Everything about the F-15 is easymode. Literally the only disadvantages it has, compared to every other fucking modern fighter in the game, is that it's not supermaneuverable and it has no HMS/High-off-bore-axis missile.

>longer engagement range with AMRAAMs
>inbuilt ECM
>better HUD and radar scope symbology than the Mirage
>AIM-7s are some of the best SARHs in the game right now
>All-aspect AIM-9s

All that shit is why I can't take anyone who thinks they're hot shit in a fighter seriously if the only fighter they fly is the F-15. It's like fucking training wheels- of course you're good, you're basically being handed victory over the average shitter on a platter. Like, I know there's some skill required when you face competent opposition; it's not super hard to defeat a long range AMRAAM launch and just sit in the notch until the fucker closes WVR at which point the F-15 quickly runs out of advantages, but how often do you see anyone actually do something that smart in DCS multiplayer?
>>
>>143852081
Not often, but if you're being fired on by AIM-120s, they're just as likely to turn cold as soon as they've fired all of them and go home as they are to try and merge.

When the AIM-120 is a thing, I've noticed that most Eagle pilots don't even bother to bring another missile
>>
>>143852187
always rather than often, shiiit

Last round of BF the number of F-15s getting closer than AMRAAM range that I counted was able to fit on one hand.

Every other time I got close to an F-15, it wasn't on their terms at all, it was just because they had been dumb enough to be making contrails so I just went below them, straight up, and pulled onto their tail.

>>143854934

The problem with his mod is that it's only a bandaid to a broken system- the model enlargement we have in DCS right now is just shit.

If you read through the last page of the mod thread for it, someone posted a proper scientific dissertation on how to do model enlargement in flight sims in a way that accurately mimics real life spotting- the very same paper BMS as the theoretical basis for their smart scaling system. That is objectively a better system- like, straight up, vetted by ~science~ and used in modern military sims.

So ideally, ED would look at that paper, say "blyat, model enlargement is broken, davai davai fix cyka" and we'd actually be able to maintain tally on fuckers after the merge without circling around looking around helplessly for them.
>>
>>143855118
It's a very good fix that ED could implement in 2 mintues, and then they could take their sweet time doing whatever they want.

Can someone go over how to defeat missiles from different aspects in DCS?

I know that's probably a shitty question to ask, but watching some air force training film or reading a manual that applies to real world air combat isn't super helpful for DCS considering how missile performance and countermeasures work.

I can defeat missiles some of the time, but it's not a consistent thing. Heaters are easy to spoof if you see the launch, you just have to idle the engines and pop flares while turning your exhaust away from the seekerhead, seems to work basically all the time. But front-aspect IRs and SARH/ARH missiles that you can't reasonably notch (be it due to altitude or launch distance) are more difficult for me, and I often find myself trying to bleed the missile of energy while spamming chaff only to get smacked in the ass by it.
>>
In BMS how do I fix the hud in the F-18, it's all sort of cut off.
>>
>>143855254
>>143855118
They first need to fix the exploit that once model enlargement is on that the users won't be able to change it. At the moment if any model enlargement is on, users can bypass server settings and have bigger models who are visible evem before they get into radar range.
>>
>>143855354
Notch isn't an end all maneuver, it doesn't always work, and good pilots love seeing people go into the notch.

You need to learn when to run away.
But if you want to be helped you need to say exactly what you are doing against radar missiles.
If you are head to head with a guy, what are you going to do after you've been launched at?
>>

that's coming whenever they get the integrity check working in 1.5
>>
>>143853524
>Have LeatherFuck said anything about what air-to-ground package the F-14B will be flying out with?
I think they're undecided as to what AG stuff if any they will model.
>>
>>143855906
I think it's already working in 2.0, they just need to hurry the fuck up and merge them.
>>
>>143855831

If I'm aware the enemy aircraft can carry anything radar guided that's worth worrying about, I try to not enter the merge exactly headon- while that does deny me a heater shot on the merge, I find that front aspect heater shots tend to have a fairly low chance of actually hitting even if the pilot does nothing to evade just because of the relative velocities involved.

But, assuming a head on merge, I'll wait a moment after the trail leaves his aircraft, then generally do a sort of half barrel roll- lift the nose while rolling the plane and try to change direction with it while spamming chaff- that's enough to defeat close-range launches in my experience, but it's the ones further out that are harder to deal with.
>>
>>143856534
>Wait after the trail leaves his aircraft

learn to fight against aim-120s, not SARHs
>Going up.

Just no, you need to drag the missile down low, into thicker air, and clutter, yes sometimes are high G barrel roll can help, but doing that every time wont really be successful, you want to start maneuvering the moment you've entered his launch zone, and point your plane down so you start losing altitude but exchange that for speed, you then want to do high or low G turns, you basically want to snake as much as possible.

So you start you put him at your gimbal limits and you point the plane slightly down, then after some time you turn, you don't wait for the launch warning, then you do that again and again until you are pretty much in the merge.

This is a head to head scenario where you both can't fall back.

But i get the feeling you fly an F-15.
So first off stop flying fag planes.
>>
>>143856976

>F-15

MiG-29 is the only FC3 plane I've flown in the last couple of months, barring a couple of non-combat F-15 flights.

I usually fight at low altitude specifically to make it easier to defeat missiles anyway so pointing my nose down isn't really an option.

besides, I feel more at home at low altitude because I'm a chopperfag
>>
>>143857216
You want altitude, it always depends but you want to be higher up usually.
Going low all the time is a bad meme.
Sometimes it's useful sometimes it's not, i'd say if you are out numbered going low is good, but if you have the advantage or you know the enemy is all low you want to go high.

If you are low though, the thing you do is good, you want to get as much ground clutter between you and the missile.

a Good trick is going a bit up, going inverted and going down again, this can get the missile to impact the ground and generally bleeds a lot of it's speed, this is very good when you are running away from things.

Since you fly the mig29, you can notch with it at almost any range against aim120s and with a few chaffs it'll go stupid.
As for nose on IRs, go idle roll and pop flares, of course being a mig-29 you have fuck all flares, so you need to use them sparingly.

For example i love seeing people even when i'm in the mig-29, because usually they don't react to you until you lock them, because they stupidly think they haven't been detected, or you can just spew missile until they die, and since they are low, the usually can't run away.
>>
Surely one of the best ways to defeat a missile is to drag it low while it's still burning and then pull it high to bleed its energy once its motor burns out? Snaking all the while.
>>
>>143857589

I'm sure going low as I am (Usually around 3k ft AGL at the start of the fight and quickly descending) isn't the best in the real world, but in 1v1/2v2 training stuff it's serving me pretty well, especially considering how fucking baller the R-73 is with the HMS.

Speaking of notching, how much leeway do you have for putting the fucker exactly on your 3-9? It's pretty difficult to tell exactly where an enemy beyond spotting range is in the sky, especially with shitty Russian RWR.
>>
What's the best theater for Falcon BMS? I think I'm starting to get the hang of this.
>>
>>143857896
the closer you are the better, if you can get it exactly at 3-9 it'll trash it instantly, and he'll usually lose lock on you.

the russian RWR tells you when you are exactly a 3 and 9 i don't know what your problem is, you can also see what vector he is from you and turn 90 degrees from that.

Also going high lowers fuel consumption i forgot to mention.

At least for now it's "supposed" to be like that in the same way the A-10C's HUD is supposed to be cut off unless you move your head forwards into the HUD. I'm not sure if the Hornet HUD is supposed to be like that or if that's just an idiosyncrasy of the BMS Hornet being a cosplaying F-16.

That's one of the many little reasons why I modded the BMS Hornet to just use an F-16 pit. It's a lot less annoying to fly, and there's only a handful of keybinds you need to memorize for the Hornet specific cockpit switches (wing folding, hook down, etc.). Personally I find it better than the alternative of a really janky cockpit where nothing does what it says it does and just doesn't work well in general.

Noobie question about BMS: when I set up a flight for myself and an AI wingman, how do I know what the UHF frequency is for the flight, I can't see it in the briefing. Also, the briefing contains the check in frequency for AWACS, but what are the other tactical frequencies for and which one do you use.
>>
>>143864605
Or VHF frequency, I forget which one.
>>
>>143864605
Unless you're playing multiplayer with IVC, the only frequency you need to know is the tower frequency. No matter what channel you're on, you'll hear AI planes in the area and AWACS.

I usually just switch to channel 1 after takeoff and only go on the tower frequency when taking off and landing.
>>
>>143864605
I'm pretty sure if you go to your DTC and set the frequencies to the defaults, one of them will be labeled "Package" which is you and your wingmen.

It's just an underwhelming plane desu, I only bought it because the money was burning a hole in my pocket and it was on sale.

So is it impossible to watch tracks from the Blue Flag server, even though DCS is recording literally gigabytes of this shit onto my SSD every time I launch the game?

Fucking things just show a map, been waiting/watching 20 minutes now and it still won't display anything I actually did.
>>
>>143903391
You need to hit pause/unpause when it's showing the map to actually get it going.
>>
>>143903391
It's paused you know, first press the pause/break button then speed up time like a lot, then when shit appears get it back to normal.

I'm having troubles with my saitek X52 Pro, the clutch button (the 'i' button) stops working completely, not even in the control panel it lights up (the LED on it works fine though).
Sometimes getting into a game in the middle of it, it just starts working again out of nowhere.

I've tried googling the issue and all I find is people saying the same thing over and over again about disabling/enabling clutch mode in the control panel, which I've done countless times and doesn't work.

Does anyone have idea what to do?

Also, I'm using the 7.0.53.6 driver with the 6.6.6.9 software, and I can't for the life of me get the newer version of the software to work, as when I install them, they just crash when I try opening the profile editor.

I'm at my wits end here.

t. shively

NEVER EVER cross in front of the plane you're attacking, even if its primary function is air to ground. at the very least, a lucky gun shot could rek you, and otherwise, you're just getting a sidewinder up the ass.
>>
>>143909662
I never use the profile editor, just the driver; unless you have specific macros don't bother with the profiler, it never plays nice with other software and is prone to bugs.

Try the control panel fix again (mine used to keep forgetting the setting). If that doesn't work, try putting it back into clutch mode, it (the LED) should then flash when you press it. If that doesn't work, then it's a duff switch or solder (kind of sounds like a cold solder joint). There are guides around the internet on how to dismantle the throttle if you're feeling brave. It's a pain in the ass though since you have to partially remove the handle from the base before you can access the handle screws on the underside of the handle.

Which LED should flash? The one on the clutch button?
Since I've never actually used clutch mode, I have no idea how it works.

I wasn't using saitek's profile editor before, but I started using it to be able to use the microstick,mouse wheel, mode selector and mouse buttons as programmable buttons, if there is any program that can do that too, I'd switch to it.

>>
>>143927614
It barely works.

When switching control between the seats, there's a good chance that one or both of you are going to black out, otherwise lag/desync between the two of you can cause the position of the plane to randomly warp around, through the ground, etc.

Here you young whippersnappers, take a look at what real flying looks like. This is a 180HP SPAD VII over the the Reims/Aisne sector of the Western Front, March 1917. Coming home after a spot of hunting in Hunland. The same horsepower as a Cessna 172.

so, /simg/

the milsurp fairy comes along and magically grants you one of any military aircraft, current or former service, in existence, with operating costs and maintenance provided by a team of shit-talking slavic elves.

The aircraft retains all the avionics and hardware required to mount weapons, yet has no weapons included (any integrally mounted weapons remain, but are without ammunition)- the milsurp fairy has a lot of pull with the worlds' governments so they're cool with it, but if you want to actually load up weapons on it you have to buy them yourself. Training up to baseline proficiency and instrument rating is also provided for free

what do you choose

The devil proposes you a deal: you get training, maintenance, fuel, storage costs and whatever else paid for you for a lifetime. If you accept, you have to fly the plane you picked at least once every two weeks. The only planes you can pick ar from nazi Germany's emergency fighter program.

That doesn't meant that is was part of the program, only that happened to be build while the program was in progress. The first prototype of the Pfeil flew in 1943.
>>
>>143957097

For fuck's sake you obtuse thicko

>On 23 May 1944, Hitler, as part of the developing Jägernotprogramm directive which took effect on 3 July, ordered maximum priority to be given to Do 335 production. The main production line was intended to be at Manzell, but a bombing raid in March destroyed the tooling and forced Dornier to set up a new line at Oberpfaffenhofen. The decision was made, along with the rapid shut-down of many other military aircraft development programs, to cancel the Heinkel He 219 night fighter, which also used the DB 603 engines, and use its production facilities for the Do 335 as well. However, Ernst Heinkel managed to delay, and eventually ignore, its implementation, continuing to produce examples of the He 219A.

You had to make me rub your face in it.

I know we'll never get the AH-64D, but certainly the first production model of the Apache must be declassified enough to make a simulation of them at least as good as the M2K

I dunno, ever since I started flying the Fulcrum, helmet mounted sighting systems have been getting me rock fucking hard. I know the Ka-50 has one, but the Shkval is shit and only capable of looking forward. I want to be able to orbit around somewhere, see some durka durka fuck, lock him up with my HMS, and then fuck him up with 30mm all without breaking orbit.

They kind of were- DCS Black Shark is what started this whole shitshow as far as full systems modelling and clickable 'pits go.

It's really depressing, no other game does helos even close to how well DCS does (I've heard X-plane does helos kind of okay but it's got FSX-tier systems modelling and content structuring), but DCS has so many fucking faults (shitty ground damage modelling, shitty AI FMs, REALLY SHITTY netcode and MP optimization, no dynamic campaign, really weak mission editor)

so it's like, do you want your helicopter to actually handle somewhat realistically and have systems modelling worth a motherfuck, or do you want actually fun game design?

Steel Armor is allowed here innit? I know it's not 100% full fidelity but it's basically the best tank game you can get without paying ridiculous amounts for a game that uses fucking physical DRM

Anyway, how the fuck do I tank good? Against any kind of opposition, I'm always left just kind of scanning the horizon looking for threats until BWONG, and then if I'm lucky I'll survive that and start looking for what the fuck shot me until a second BWONG and my crew bails out because the tank's on fire or something

Recoilless rifles always FUCK ME UP because they're next to impossible to see from a distance unless they're set up right in the open, and there's usually enough in the way of infantry around them to keep friendly infantry from storming the position for a good while. So am I supposed to just hold back until the grunts win their fight and kill the fucks on the AT, or what?
>>
>>143959275

They should have picked one thing and done it well. The Ka-50 and the UH-1 are samples of what could have been. Imagine Gunship2000/Comanche vs Hokum but with Blackshark level simulation fidelity. This could have been our destiny...

For what it's worth, I do enjoy the fixed wing stuff in DCS, and fixed wing aircraft have a wider appeal which is important for any business looking to make money in a market as small as the study sim market, but yeah. It boggles the mind to see how little we have in the way of rotary wing.

Not having multicrew isn't an excuse- AI gunners are implemented on the UH-1, so certainly it couldn't be that hard to implement an AI gunner in something like the Cobra or the Hind. Having him in charge of multiple weapons, or more advanced weapons that require some systems management like hellfires or TOWs might be an issue, but it seems like it'd be an easily surmountable issue.

But no, instead of spending time developing a helo gunship, ED spent their time developing a trainer with no fucking thrust output at all.
>>
>>143960119
>It boggles the mind to see how little we have in the way of rotary wing.
Cost and complexity. Study sims already aren't cheap to make.

The BST devs were talking about this on the Russian forums. Saying how much more complicated helicopters are than conventional aircraft and how gunships like the hind are even worse.
>>
>>143960004

That just feels like I'm not supporting the infantry as I should be- just halting my group and waiting for the infantry to win a hill or something without even lobbing an HE to help them out feels like shit

I guess I could try just going around them, but then I'd be driving for twenty minutes and I'd probably just run into another AT nest.

The desert is fucking boring as a map, too- there are hardly any good hull down positions, everything is so fucking flat.

>>143960297

>>
>>143960314

You can't support the infantry from a pile of smoking slag m80.
>>
>>143960754

So basically, I have to cower behind a hill until the infantry overrun the AT?

What about other stuff? I have a pretty hard time spotting just about anything unless I'm fighting from the defense, able to go hull down in a tank trench or something and just watch for movement.
>>
>>143960297
Weren't they bitching and moaning about how few people bought the Mi-8 and they put the Hind on the backburner also because of that?
>>
>>143960974
They think the hind won't sell well because Mi-8 sold worse than the Huey great logic that BST... but the hind has been frozen for ages now. If you want a project that is really on the back-burner see their Cobra, it'll join the F-16 as the DCS analogues to Duke Nukem forever.
>>
>>143960852

That's their job, to clear AT that you can't safely engage. The support between tanks and infantry is mutual.

The British system divides tanks into two categories, infantry tanks and cavalry tanks. If you're working with infantry you probably have to fall in with the slower, heavier infantry tank style.

>>143960974

No surprise there. The Mi-8, ie "Boring Slavshit: Helicopter Edition", If they'd made a Loach they'd be squatting in their gold embossed adidas tracksuits and drinking the really expensive vodka right now.

I don't know it can be really fun in MP, but no server runs it because it causes lag, it's really underutilized, and if you play game master it makes the game so much more fun for the other players.
Of course as long as you aren't a shitter and understand that it's your role to make things fun and challenging instead of putting everything in a forest.

Some of the most fun i've had in DCS is when there's an enemy CA player.
However it should only be bought on a sale, otherwise it's not worth it, not to mention it should really be free.
>>
Combined arms is kind of garbo though. I'd rather use the aircraft, and even then I'd rather use more full fidelity modules over FC3.

Ideas I've had:

-Mirages/MiG-21's escorting A-10/Grachs's to a target area that is defended by Mirages/MiG-21's.

-Swarm of MiG-21's attack an AWACS with its two F-15 escorts.


>>144018969

Nigga that is what I am talking about.

We need someone better than me to make these mission, but I can try.

RAZBAM's making a Mirage III
>>
>>144019818
Oh shit nigga. That's nice, but I'm not surprised in the slightest.
>>
>>144019352

That mission wouldn't be that difficult, desu. Just throw some player-controlled SAMs in, set up a distinctive-looking car on REDFOR's side to be the target (set up a trigger that ends the mission when its killed or when it reaches a 'safe zone' area and is still alive), populate BLUFOR with whatever aircraft (mirages work if you don't want to use eagles), give REDFOR their MiGs (desu you have to give them at least fulcrums, MiG-21 v. Mirage-2000 isn't a fair fight in the least, and the precedent is there for shithole countries having MiG-29s anyway), set up something to check every so often to see if a MiG-21 group populated by a client is dead, and if so respawn them all in a wave (this part might be hard, I've never done wave-based respawns in DCS)

BLUFOR would need 25Ts for SEAD (You could conceivably just give them A-10s or Mirages with bombs and tell them to wild weasel it, but against player controlled SAMs that'd be insane), and having something like the A-10C would be nice because TGP with FLIR. If we're willing to bend timelines for accurate equipment (and we should, DCS's roster is too gappy to say "we can't use this because it didn't exist at this time"), you could throw in a UAV to lase the target to make acquiring it easier. It could also be stated in the brief that it's operated by the CIA so that the entire mission can devolve into baneposting.

>set up something to check every so often to see if a MiG-21 group populated by a client is dead, and if so respawn them all in a wave (this part might be hard, I've never done wave-based respawns in DCS)

You need to script for that, it's a pain in the ass.
>>
>>144020854

Can you not just set up a trigger on a timer or something to check to see if a group is dead?

I dunno if you can do timers with the trigger system, but you could just set up a unit with an endlessly repeating loop of waypoints, set it invisible and immortal, RoE weapons hold, do not react to threats, and set a very small trigger zone on one of its waypoints to make a ghetto timer.

My combat effectiveness with the AIM-7m has nothing to do with anything we are discussing. AIM-7M in DCS can be defeated with simple chaff spam, you don't even need to maneuver. This is common knowledge to anyone who fly's air quake and actually knows what they're doing. R-27ER is actually in my opinion is a little stronger, as chaff spam wont save you,maneuvering is required. But regardless both missiles are shit and they really shouldn't be, but yet again as we all know DCS has fucked missiles.

The mirage will actually be kind of baller for air to ground once we get the fucking CCRP auto-release shit. As it is, it's impossible to accurately drop an unguided bomb because you have a split second window to drop the bomb in, and you're going to do it either late or early
