BMS has so much splash damage. A Maverick can take out 3 lightly armored vehicles if they're near each other. I know DCS has literally no splash damage, but I wonder if BMS is wrong in the opposite direction.

Hello gentlemen,
I was wondering, is it possible to save Silent Hunter 5 with mods or was it impossible to fix?
>>158258924
it apparently is fixable if you don't have the steam version look up the wolves of steel modpack.
Ran into our AWACS on the way back home from a very uneventful BARCAP.
>>158261089
Thanks!
Take this image of Belinda as show of my appreciation.
>>158261194
I've been flying for a Korean squadron for a change. All the fancy toys on the new USAF F-16s makes things a little too easy and it's gotten kind of boring, so it's fun to be throwing around dumb bombs when you need to destroy some airfields. The smartest weapon this squadron gets is Mavericks.
>>158261596
I like Israeli campaign where you only get Pythons.
You merge with Floggers and Foxbats quite a bit.
>>158261727
Yeah after today I'm curious to give that another try. I only played it once to look around, but never got into it. Right now I'm using a lot of dumb weapons, but everything else in the theatre is still tearing it up HARMS, AMRAAMs, and AA-12s. From what I hear the Israeli theater almost plays by 3rd generation rules in terms of equipment available to both sides.
>>158258924
Yes, get the Uplay version. go here
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/forumdisplay.php?f=249
get whatever mods you want (Steal Wolves being the best) and go from there.
Some tips, SH5 crashed when I had my CPU set to default speed, which apparently was too fast for it, you you may need to underclock.
If you get the steal wolves mod, before installing it, go in the tex folders and delete any tex files pertaining to the U-boat external skin, they'll make the U-boat look rusted as shit and it's not realistic at all. I could tell you exactly which files to delete if you actually intend to go through with any of this in the future.
>>158262569
Sure, I spent most of my time playing SH3 and SH4, they are now sold in steam for like $5 for the three, tried to play once or twice SH5 but after 3 crashes I forgot about it.
But I just have to delete all the tex files, right?
>>158261875
It does feel old school.
I hope that Germany map comes out someday. Dynamic campaign during Soviet invation of Europe during the 1980s.... I would fly the fuck out of that
>>158263158
>delete all the tex files,
No no no, only two files I think, they just make the Uboat go from looking new to being rusted, when you install mods backups are created for everything anyways

I play some spintires. Love it, though I feel like I'm struggling as much or more with the camera as with the terrain at times. And there's a lot of minor adjustments that would make it so much better, like different length of winch wire on trucks, perhaps upgradeable length, ability to winch out, ability to use forward and rear winch at the same time, better multiplay with roles (fuel support, transport, rescue or something like that).

Okay, I fell for the Initial D meme and bought Assetto Corsa, my first ever racing sim. I played it on keyboard for about 2 weeks, and I never felt better in my life. I'm hooked now.

The logitech G27 is like the Saitek X52 of the joystick world (when they werent made by Mad Catz). Unfortunately they don't make them anymore. I bought mine used at 150 britbongs but 2 years later even used copies go twice as much
>>158285000
I actually have Saitek X52 Pro for my flight sims, so is it a good or a bad thing?
Also, are logitech gearsticks that come with the wheels good or should I buy another one?
>>158285165
The G27 is a robust wheel, shifter and pedal set. I mean I havent tried any other wheel. But I have never had any big complaints about it. Works alright, force feedback feels great in PCars and especially in Dirt Rally. Shifter works as expected. I have panels on my floor so I have issues with the pedals since they don't really stick to the ground anymore. That's about it

Russia would mainly focus on defence because of the lack of numbers but in air doctrine defending is a flawed strategy because you give the opponent the initiative.
Also Syria is not worth it and Hillary has no word over the Congress which has the final word.

>>158274172
The hornet is much closer to an f16 in terms of flight profile. Real life isn't like DCS where the F15 can turn 14g sustained. The f15 was never designed to be a good turn fighter.
>>158255076
BMS is wrong.
>>158290035
DCS is wrong.
>>158255076
BMS does weapons which are supposed to have splashdamage (CBU's, blast fragmentation warheads, etc.) right by just giving them a huge kill radius as an approximation. Unfortunately BMS is very bad at simulating any sort of penetration so you end up with mavericks ripping 3 tanks even though they don't work this way (atleast the D doesn't, it's shaped charge).
TL;DR DCS does single target damage better, BMS is better at structural damage (runways, buildings) and fragmentation/splash.
>>158290035
>>158290202
both are wrong
>>158290558
Right answer
>>158289850
nope
>>158275069
speculation, it could have been a SAM or engine failure. The play was found almost perfectly intact so it highly doubtful a mig shot it down, and given Sadams propaganda machine we never would have heard the end of that. Too bad Spiecher is still MIA, i would buy him a beer

>On the first night of the war, two F/A-18s from the carrier USS Saratoga were flying outside of Baghdad when two Iraqi MiG-25PDs interceptors from the 96th Squadron engaged them. In the beyond-visual-range (BVR), one of the Iraqi MiGs, piloted by Lieutenant Colonel Zuhair Dawood, fired an R-40 missile, shooting down one of the F/A-18's as it was travelling Mach 0.92. The pilot, Lieutenant Commander Scott Speicher, was killed. It is widely believed he died upon the impact of the missile.[2]
>The longest serving, most popular, largest number produced, largest amount of operators SAM still isn't in DCS

>natoboos blown the FUCK out

Honestly the SA-3 seems a lot more effective IRL than in DCS.
In DCS, the thing burns for like 5 seconds, stops and burns all its energy doing baby maneuvers.
This is how it is IRL.

With just 24 rounds out of 500, the BMP-2 could mission-kill a tank at a distance of 1200 meters. The number of shots the Object 675 was permitted to fire was controlled for trial reasons. In combat, the gunner could easily choose shoot until he was sure that his target was truly out of action.

Thinking something maybe the size of an Atari-2600 stick with a slider for a throttle on it. Just a small thing you could carry with you when travelling like a game controller, instead of a proper vaguely life-sized aircraft stick.
I know I could just find a 2600 style stick, but I was wondering ahead if anyone knew of one with nice additional things (like a throttle slider) before doing that.

Technically they have.
A modder made a couple low quality maps and Europe was one of them.
Krause made a review of it and it's fucking horrible. He is like us and talks about how much he would love a cold war campaign, he gushes over it for the first couple minutes.
But overall the actual map is a terrible copy and paste job. Apparently there is a desert storm map payware, but idk.
The Germany map that that one dude is making looks fucking quality though. It's all made custom and looks great.

so is it part of training? do they just say "pick an open place" ? no other remarks?
>>158328035
My instructor said to me something to the effect of
"If you suffer a power loss after takoff then just pick an open field (he then pointed out all the suitable landing fields in the golf course that our takeoff climb took us over) And if you suffer a power loss in the circuit then you have more than enough lift to glide back and land normally"
Of course I was training in a shitty light aircraft, but I imagine the principle is the same almost universally.

By this I mean the no video output at all. I really really hope I haven't fucked my GPU
>>158330482
>>158331016
sounds like you really really fucked your GPU
either that or the computer thought it was more fitting to send video only to the onboard graphics port
>>158331138
What I hope happened is that the GPU didn't send video because there were no drivers for it.
What probably happened is that it died...
>>158331138
Usually thats handled by the BIOS and its quite odd for that to get changed without a reason.
>>158332060
If you saw video driver errors then, after some time no output, it died.
>>158332845
I didn't see any errors, the PC restarted itself to do a windows reinstall and on startup had no output
>>158332969
Use the onboard vcard to fiddle with the BIOS and change the output to the external vcard to see what happens.
>>158333263
I already removed it from the computer, I'm gonna install the drivers and pop it back in, see if that helps

True. Priority for DCS right now imo should be fix missiles. If they fixed just that the sim would be 10x better than its current state.
My dream is that they fix the explosion effects though. For ground explosions, but more importantly the effect for air craft getting shot down.
Like watch this webm:

Hurts
So the BMS team themselves have actually said that because of how old the code is, it is impossible for them to make different systems.
It will never happen.
As an F-16 sim, it will always have a place in my heart since the days of Falcon, but the fact that it basically has no future besides possibly getting a Germany map by a modder upsets me.
DCS is literally our only hope.
Fuck.
>>158338502

>>158339590
Along with this one.
Both were taken back before 1.5 was still in the openbeta branch.
>>158338502
They should start a new open source flightsim engine project employing future-proof and portable programming while ripping as much as possible from BMS into it, eventually reaching close to BMS feature parity and moving forwards from there. But they probably don't have the necessary pool of effort and talent for this so it's only a dream.
The promise of tearing the autistic flightsim goyim cuckdom with some GNU+freedums sounds kinda satisfying desu.

I made the dumbass decision to get it off of Steam and can't get a lot of the new modules. I still got the Gazelle, though, and it's easily my second favorite, after the Huey. The A-10C is a comfortable third, but I'm a big rotorwing nut.

>>158341763
Just download standalone and that's it. All the Steam keys transfer over. There's literally no reason to use DCS on Steam.
The Falcon Dynamic Campaign is still the most impressive game feature I have ever seen.
The fact that they said, "Fuck it. Simulate the entire Air, Land, and Sea war between North and South Korea and put an F-16 pilot in the middle of all of it" and it fucking worked blows my mind.
>>158342139
I unironically think Falcon's dynamic campaign is one of video gaming's wonders of the world.
>>158342552
It's certainly special.
>>158330682

>>158342552
Its a miracle of the universe and needs to be protected.
I mean look at that shit. If you don't think thats the tightest shit you can get out of my face.
Honestly BMS is fucking lit. Its so fucking good.
The ONLY thing holding it back is that the F-16 is the only real plane in the game. This isn't even that big of a negative, considering the F-16 is one of the most capable multi-role aircraft ever made.
Like I said, DCS is our only hope. It will literally never EVER have a dynamic campaign on the same level as Falcon, but maybe a good random mission generator would be enough, especially once we get even more planes and terrains.
ED just needs to fix missiles, update AI, and we are on track.
>>158345736
>but maybe a good random mission generator would be enough
I kinda wonder what's stopping modders from making one. On the IL-2 series they pop up quite fast.
i wish at least one serious developer tackled spanish civil war
is there any good flight sim based in the 30's ? I-15, early i-16, early stuka and 109
>>158346085
I'm pretty sure a modder is making one right now. Something called MOOSE I think.
It doesn't even need to be super indepth. It could be on a single mission basis.
Something where you're like, ok, I want to fly the MiG-21 today.
Program makes an objective; defend this, attack this, escort this
Then, it places units. Puts you and your allies at Beslan for example.
Places enemies somewhere a flights distance from Beslan, puts some enemies in the air and ground.
Makes a simple breifing telling you hey, you are here, go do this, here is probable enemy resistance.
I know its easy to talk, but fuck that can't be impossible. That already would satisfy most of my single player needs.
>>158345736
>It will literally never EVER have a dynamic campaign on the same level as Falcon, but maybe a good random mission generator would be enough, especially once we get even more planes and terrains.
DCS doesn't really need to have a dynamic campaign on the same level as BMS. I mean, it'd be great if it did, but to get close enough in the ways that matter I don't think is unreasonable.
To me, there are two things that BMS affords: being a part of a bigger battle, and planning your missions not knowing what's actually out there. Both of those can be faked reasonably well. BOS/BOM already fakes this in a decent manner where it seems to just spawn units around the area based on who holds what and then have them shoot at each other.
Honestly, that gets you like 70% of the way there in terms of how it affects you the player, and that's all DCS really needs. It needs a dynamic element to it. What I hate about DCS scripted missions is that you always know where and when everything is going to happen, especially if you made the mission yourself.
Having the game work in zones might be best, where say a hostile town as a zone would spawn SAM sites, AAA, and some tanks. Maybe some of those tanks will drive over to an enemy zone to give the appearance of them doing something. This way, you could create "scenarios" where the mission creator is just laying out zones in a certain way to create a small world for people to fly missions in.
As an end user in the mission editor you'd see all the zones as they were laid out, but you wouldn't know exactly what was in them unless you cracked open some mission file.
Writing this out makes me want to attempt something like this with mission scripting but fuck that is a nightmare to work with.
I don't know, I'm just spitballing. DCS isn't bad, but once you learn a plane and its systems there's just not anything interesting to do with it.
>>158346085

Messing around with this right now and it's pretty cool. You request missions based on the F10 menu, and if you complete certain missions you can call in a flight for backup if you need it. There's air to air, multirole, air to ground, recon, and supply missions.

I mention doing it with code because that way it's more dynamic and not hard coded to the specific mission. Either way it would work better if ED did it so it would work better and be less of a hack.

I'm hoping that once the Viggen comes out things stabilize again. But fuck, nothing they've done recently has instilled confidence that anything they do will ever work right again. There are literally game breaking bugs on that plane every other patch.

Can't you align in flight? Does doing that fuck up the coordinates for dropping bombs and flying to steerpoints?
desu I almost never ramp start in BMS because that's not the interesting part of flying in BMS.

At least the thread is lively.
>>158389353
I have very limited time in the day to play anything. If I wanted to do that sort of thing I would play DCS (and I do, I play both) because that's the one thing DCS does better than BMS. There is literally no other sim out there that is as accurate when it comes to being a simulation of a single plane, its systems, and all their interactions. BMS actually has a fair amount of inoperable switches because muh classified, and a lack of some kind of information. Clicky cockpits is no longer a big strength of BMS in the grand scheme of things. DCS does it better.
When I play BMS, I want my limited playtime to be spent doing the stuff that BMS does well, and that's the mission planning (it's very easy to spend 15-20 minutes just planning and reviewing a mission) and then the actual execution of it along with the often eventful flight back to home plate where any number of things can go wrong.
If playing that way offends you then I'm sorry anon, and we'll have to agree to disagree.
>>158390276
This I can agree with. I'm actually glad to see this kind of "discussion" over the usual.
>>158390473
>I have very limited time in the day to play anything
Yet another one of those textbook shitter excuses that you see in every game that asks a little bit of effort.
You have enough time to shitpost on a cantonese basket weaving forum but complain about an INS alignment that takes less time than the FCR BIT test if you go for the minimum ready state which is more than enough for anything in the game if you really want to.
The sad thing is people like you drag down the experience for everyone else, because they demand hot planes, already positioned on the takeoff and thus ruin it for people who ACTUALLY want to simulate proper ground ops, which is one of the best arguments for BMS. DCS ground ops are non existant so BMS is all we have for it.
Your way of playing doesn't offend me, I just don't even wish to play with you. Luckily most /simg/ missions we play don't subscribe to this casual playstyle that you have in mind (yet).
If the 2 minutes cold start are seriously too much for you on a 30-60 minute sortie, then you have problems. You should get that checked out.

This is the crux of your argument, but I have literally never told anybody that I require a hot start or anything like that. I'm talking about what I do when I play on my own in SP.
The times that I've played MP with others in BMS or DCS I just do whatever the host has set to. If I were to set aside the time to play Viperfest for example, I would ramp start with everybody else and that's all there is to it.
I won't go into a MP game if I don't feel I have the time. It's why almost all of my MP sim time, be it DCS or BMS is relegated to weekends I know I will have to myself.

>>158395209
Subaru is a pleb tier car.
>>158395209
But in all honesty, ramp starts are for solo play.
If you play MP then you play it because you want to fly together with other people. NOT because you want to sit in your respective pits flipping switches for an hour and going "Assblaster 2-1 requesting permission to taxi" "hee hee im such a pilot"
That's just fucking stupid.

To me, the best ops are ones where we all start in cold pits, go through start ups, taxi, fly, do the shit, come back, land, shutdown.
It's very rewarding to do a full mission from start to finish and not skipping anything like a loser.
I mean shit, the majority of /simg/ just exits the mission and let's the AI fly the plane back in BMS. That's gay.
I'm surprised you don't just let the AI fly to the AO, hop in, fire your AIM120s, and exit.
>>158398737
I actually let the AI fly, fire and land
>>158395380
Depends on who your playing with, what kind of level of immersion you want, and time constraints. Both are fine.

That`s /simg/ for you.A bunch of shitters who think that they`re good.
>>158398737
I was one of the anon talking about why I don't usually ramp start in BMS and I agree 100%. Most fun MP I've had in BMS was going through entire missions from start to finish.

Nah, they get the current SPI when you fire as target. Can be anything: TGP target, FCR bug, pre-planned steerpoints, etc.

There is white-hot and black-hot for most of the stuff
But tanks use green-hot
Why?
>>158399696

I absolutely love that Viperfest and by extension Falcon Online doesn't allow hot starts. It weeds out 104th shitters who don't belong in a simulator.
>>158400323
Because human eyes can differentiate more shades of green than they can for any other color.
It's also why NVG's are green.

Which one? Radar facilities are cool as fuck. I've never worked one since I'm a tower guy. Radar guys make more money because it's usually higher workload, at least civilian side.
Military towers are busy as fuck at fighter bases, it only in bursts, example is when all 30 planes comeback at same time, but the rest is slow.
Radar isn't as nuts at military bases, but it's more steady because they work civilian flights that go through the airpace so they always have something going on.
>>158409839
I like to rampstart too, I find it pretty immersive, but if someone else doesn't that's fine.

>>158427935
It's a very hard that requires people to know the ins and outs of their cockpit and how to deal with system failures. Autostart doesn't teach you anything, so I wanna make it impossible from the start to use it.
>>158428089
this is obvious bait

Not that I have anything against people who don't wanna go through all that learning, but it does fuck with things a bit when you don't have to learn how your plane works and just keep respawning and spamming ordinance. It makes it less fun for the people wanting to play properly.

I just said I have nothing against the people who don't want to learn that stuff, but that he should have the right to choose what goes on the server because it's completely fair not to want autostart.
But because you wanted to argue anyway, here's reasons why learning the start up isn't even that bad anyway
>when you learn a couple and start to realize they have things in common, like an APU to provide inital power, switches/fuses to power electrical components, or fuel pumps and starters to get the engines going
>when you realize dials and buttons are separated into sections of the cockpits depending on what they're for and this translates to other aircraft as well, especially of the same country

I don't wanna fly with this kind of asshole and neither do most of us.

The mission takes the timeframe from my usual late 80's to 2008.
The mission is to support a reinforced forward detachment of T-80Us and BMP-2s as it advances to capture key towns and strategic locations in Georgia, namely Senaki which is the final objective. A combination of armor, infantry, artillery, air, and air defense are all obstacles in this mission. I've made an attempt to position hostile ground forces in a way that they still provide a credible threat without benefiting from the AI's x-ray vision that usually leaves them unassailable with player controlled ground forces.
Besides the main objectives, there are a handful of side objectives that don't really do anything other than make the mission comfier.
The attack begins very early in the morning. Bring your night vision.
>>158440304
Sa-3s, Sa-8s, Sa-11,s and more were very real threats in the Georgian campaign. Well trained SAM crews repeatedly embarrassed the Russian air force in front of the world.
To help with this, a flight of Su-24s, callsign Zoya are in the air to help deal with the SAM threat. They won't help against the plentiful AAA and IR missiles wielded by the Georgians, but tackling long range AA like the Buks will help give the players breathing space.
Simple trigger scripts simulate a Georgian IADS to some extent. Long range AA won't activate their radars until they are within good launch parameters to do so. Future versions of the mission will also feature mobile SAMs and EWRs briefly illuminating, scooting, then repeating the process to provide a bigger challenge.
>>158440728
Need a city block removed? Call Molot. Multiple Launch Rocket Launchers are some of the oldest and favorite tools of the Soviet army, and even old BM-21s are still impressive in the 21st century.
A long range SAM system that is too smart or well entrenched to defeat with aircraft is still an easy target for 240 122mm rockets, so call Molot whenever an area is too challenging. Keep in mind that it takes a long time to reload the launchers, so you only get one salvo every ten minutes.

Bactria can be easily edited to allow any fixed wing aircraft with AG ordnance to participate in the mission.
Depending on the tasking the A -10C 's can act as FAC(A)'s for 25's and others and even lase targets for them. I know it sounds stupid but if you set your laser code to 1113 on the TGP the 25T's can see it like they would have TISL.
Only problem with Bactria is that because of the distances it is not suitable for helo ops but who gives a fuck about rotary anyway.
>>158454012
If you're editing it anyway, why not just stick a couple of farps down?
Can you play pirated modules with the fsx steam version?
>>158454351
The target areas are too spread out in more difficult terrain for helos and in a combined fixed and rotary effort, fixed would clear the area three times before you would even get there.
There are some taskings very suitable for rotary like convoy escorts but every time you would be put together with fixed you would be pushed aside unless you could be faster at the target than fixed.
I am sorry my rotary fag but you are irrelevant in the grand scheme of CAS as speed and no terrain limitations will beat your ass and payload. Go do CCA or other helo things you helo people.

Honestly IMHO it's a bit too expensive for what it is, and it's not the best thing out there, but considering it's the only midrange stick it's pretty ok, and there will definetely be an accuracy jump between the x52 and tflight.
However i'm lucky since i could get the drivers and stick software to work, if you can't get it to work i don't know if i'd recommend it.
It's an okay stick, i just wish it used some better potentiometers.
IMHO the current best midrange would be a CH stick and the to be released thrustmaster hotas, or the Cobra m5.
Having one pov switch on the stick is really horrible, a proper stick should have a minimum of 2.

No more than any other fixed wing or chopper, also also A-10s have been purposely flown in high threat areas in Serbia, in areas where SAMs were present, specifically to get them to fire at them, knowing they could hug the deck and avoid radar detection again in CSAR missions.

Choppers are the best aircraft for defeating anti air threats. No other aircraft can creep up on a SAM system like they can, with their degrees of freedom in flight.
>>158471420
>A good example is the F-35 with it's stealth technology
Against last or even older gen AA defenses sure, but against those a modern jammer/EWAR package works just as well, in fact the F35 radar can defeat AA threats by itself, no stealth required.
But then you get to current, modern gen AA systems and realize stealth does literally nothing and you get swatted out of the sky before you even see the air space of what you want to attack.
>>158472109
>But then you get to current, modern gen AA systems and realize stealth does literally nothing

Remember that the MiG21 will never be fixed
>>158472176
The f35 doesn't even have that much stealth bruh. It's only stealthy from the front (as opposed to the f22, which has all aspect stealth). This is all the proof you need. The F35 is very obviously designed for asymetric warfare in shithole countries, where it can walz through the enemy AA with impunity.

Muh proof chicken. Prove that the F35 defeats modern radar systems. Oh wait, those proofs are classified for which exact system you achieve what kind of effect. It's called deduction, the fact that the F35, which is more modern, is less stealthy than the F22, which is less modern, is all proof you need that stealth is a meme. Unless you're unable to somehow put 2 and 2 together.

Do not think that if that strategy worked in the first Gulf War than it would work in the next war.
SAM sites are protected with other defences that can easily take out helos, but due to the Iraqi army being beyond stupid as with all Arabs the US got very lucky.
Choppers are not for direct assault but for direct support when frontline troops move into contact. They are moving behind the ground element and are on standby.
>>158472713
>Radar and detection systems don't undergo improvements between generations
This has nothing to do with my point though? Let me hand-hold you.
The point is that low observability technology is never redundant, provided the enemy is using radar a low RCS configuration will always reduce detection range vs a conventional design. You seen to think stealth is an arcade-like on or off state, he sees you or he doesn't type thing. This is a load of crap, every stealth technology under the sun can be defeated under certain circumstances, but that doesn't make them pointless.
To refer to the best real example we have available, an SA-3 radar operating with a high wavelength could detect the F-117 at close ranges even with the bomb bay doors closed. Just because a technology has a counter doesn't make its development pointless to pursue.
>never received weapons
>never went into production
>it will always be a forgotten tech demonstrator that's already obsolete
>>158473365
And even then, there's a difference between detecting an aircraft and being able to obtain and maintain a lock on it.
The S-300's 200km range for example isn't that impressive when by the time you're able to detect and shoot at the F-35, it's already dumped a hot sticky load of JSOWs inbound to your position.
>>158473479
>still sexy as fuck
>>158473594
Do JSOWS require guidance from the aircraft or are they autonomous?
>>158473365
And you're a retard that assumes things and misses the point for the fourth post in a row now. They had to compromise LIKE FUCK for the F35 and to a lesser extent for the F22 to get the stealth meme going, to end up with a plane that is less manueverable, has less range and carries less ordnance than a jet from the 80's. This is all in pursuit of a technologoy that, while improving things very good against radar system who were developed without stealth in mind, performs poorly when modern radar development KNOWS how the stealth systems work and have worked tirelessly for the last 30 years to specifically counteract it.
The F35 was never designed to go toe to toe with modern AA system that have thousands of KM of range, because even if you shave off a few hundred KM in detection range, you're still dead before you can drop your payload. The F35 was designed to practically be invisible against shitty sandnigger missile systems, because it reduces their effective range down to nothing, and precision delivery of ordnance in an asymetric battlefield. Read literally every article and press release on the topic, fucking moron.
You know how symmetric warfare works? You're detected at 500-1000km and you have a dozen top notch intercept fighters vectored in to your ass that will find and kill you because they have more thrust, better manueverability and more weapons than you have.

Spouting the same argument that has been defeated
>The F35 was never designed to go toe to toe with modern AA system that have thousands of KM of range
Who gave you the authority to state what it was designed to do? Are you an engineer on the project?
Furthermore, Russia does not have any anti aircraft system with "thousands of kilometers of range". Even the "top notch" S-400 can only shoot out to 400km, and, by the way, it's still going to have trouble achieving lock.
>you have a dozen top notch intercept fighters vectored in to your ass

Which doesn't mean jack shit in a BVR environment. Nevermind the CAP accompanying the F-35 like oh, say, the F-22 which absolutely shits on any Russian aircraft in every theoretical scenario.

The USAF and USN deducted that going for maneuverability and high dogfight capable fighters will result in waaay more loses as both sides use JHMCS which in most cases will result in a draw with both aircraft destroyed.
This is why they are more focusing on sensors, early warning and low RCS.
Of course a Slavboo shiter on a Mongolian cave paintings board knows more about air warfare than the USAF and USN.
>>158457782
I was messing around with it last night to see if it worked.
Yes, SAMs aren't really smarter here, their behavior is just more randomized. I'll implement a full trigger script in later versions.
Anyway, what's a good time for ops? It's pretty much ready to go.
>>158475184
>wvr
No way, I might get too excited.
Okay let's be real here for a second: We're playing simulators, so if your argument boils down to "I don't want to do the simulating part", then you kind of lose your argument right there and then.
Whether you like it or not, ramp starting, doing checklists, etc. is all part of the game and if you decide to skip it, cool, but don't expect other people to cater to you to their own detriment, I know atleast half of us prefer the autismo approach to these games and want to learn the terminology, the procedures and everything around flying an aircraft and don't just purely join to get a quick airquake kill and disconnect mid flight. I think most of us are here for the immersion and this means: Start ups, taxiing, ground ops and all the other cool shit that aren't just airquake or ground pounding.
I swear, I'd love if the game has a better ATC and would use that shit nonstop.
>>158475643
The fun part of the sim to me is the combat. I can go to an airport and circlejerk myself off over starting up a plane and talking to ATC any time. But it's a bit difficult to do BVR combat in a fucking 172.
>>158475442
So instead they decided that if you ever get into a merge, you're just fucked right there with no way to live? Seems like an odd plan.
And if you seriously plan to NEVER get into a merge ever, I further question your planning ability. This seems needlessly one trick pony for such an important task as air superiority. Historically you'd be proven wrong by centuries of warfare where people thought technology would make for smooth and simple wars, when in reality, everything went back to chaotic shitshows immediately and the simple things are the deciders again.
>>158475814
>The fun part of the sim to me is the combat.
That's cool, but don't expect us to bend over backwards to accomedate you, when we want to have our ramp start. So you either do one yourself, or you wait, staring at the timer until it's takeoff time.
>>158475820
What do you think the AIM-9X is for?
>>158475916
How is this related at all, if anything the aim9x capability supports my argument, that they are aware of the fact that they need a good dogfight missile (60° off boresight is huge) because you can't guarantee your super plane will never get into a merge.
chalk up another victory boys
>>158475887
>That's cool, but don't expect us to bend over backwards to accomedate you
I'm the anon who started that whole conversation and I made it clear that if host is doing ramp starts then I'll do a ramp start. I wouldn't expect anything else. Host is hosting, it's the hosts rules. If you don't like it, don't play.
Besides, MP is a more appropriate place for going full autismo anyway because that sort of thing is fun with other people around.
>>158476275
>Besides, MP is a more appropriate place for going full autismo anyway because that sort of thing is fun with other people around.
This I can agree to.
fugg the YF-17 is the dankest shit
>>158475820
If they get in a merge they still have their JHMCs and high off bore missiles.
And you are full of bullshit as historically the US has never lost an air war to this day.
>>158476016
Aim9's are last resort weapons.
This is why sensor fusion is so important as when an AWACS or any other early warning radar picks up a bandit the F-35 will immediately see it on his sensors as well. Even in a high ECM environment.
>>158476016
The intention is to never get into the merge, but boy on the small off chance it happens you're gonna want something aren't you.

Entirely dependent on what you call fun; Addons and programs range from the comically arcadey which make up the vast majority to the insanely detailed and complex, like NASSP which I'm messing with here (no shit four hours of checklists and a bazillion switches that all do something related to this launch, Apollo 8). The base simulator comes with a lot of little tutorials and things to play with so you can get a feel for space flight.
Being 100% honest, Orbiter can get boring fairly quickly, launching shit into space is awfully mundane for something so complex and there is very little excitement, especially for things like probes which have multi-year missions with no external input. There's real excitement when you launch and dock a Soyuz or Shuttle to the ISS, or even simply launching a satellite into space in the first place.
It is not at all like KSP however, building vessels and stacking them requires you either know code or read .ini files. Neither of which comes naturally to me.
This probably doesn't answer your question per se, but hopefully it points you in the right direction. At the end of the day, I recommend that you try it; it's free and they recently released the 2016 version.
