Poor guy probably thought he was doing a really smart maneuver that the F5 couldn't keep up with.

Speaking of the F-5.
When I'm locked onto a guy and everything says I'm in range but the droning doesn't turn into a beeping, will the sidewinder seek what I'm locked onto?

MERGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>186052498
Oh, so he was going for a slow energy-battle that he thought you would lose because the Mig bleeds speed at <400 KMH.
Was his problem that he did it too soon to let you land a shot?

>>186053469
>Enfield 1-1, merged

>>186053571
He lost because a) he decided to fly straight instead of keeping his turn going, and b) I got lucky

iirc he spent his missiles anyway so if I didn't land the shot I would have went emergency afterburner and just ran away

>>186052496

I would love 100% to have arma 3 here, because I'm armafag myself, but I don't want /simg/ ruined either.

I don't like this argument very much for a number of reasons.

>I would want Arma here, but I don't want /simg/ ruined either
>I would want SAM Simulator here, but I don't want to /simg/ ruined either

>I would want Farming Simulator here, but I don't want /simg/ ruined either

And it goes on and on and on until we're struggling to keep the thread bumped on a Sunday night.
Is that really a good future for us?

>>186056568
Maybe /a3g/ should have its own thread again then?

Arma should generate enough traffic to sustain a thread.

>>186056703
That'd be great. Why did the thread stop, anyway? Were they being elitist pricks who wouldn't accept OFP or earlier Arma games?
I don't visit armag but I knew it was a thing here for a while.

>>186056819
>I for sure know that trolls are still here waiting until we activate their almonds
See, this is the thing I don't get; we don't know if this really rings true or not. Alot has changed over the years since and people will move on and grow up, I think there is way too much of a stigma against the game because of some bad apples from years back. times change.

Either way though it's whatever, personally I think nothing would really change if was allowed. I mean...why isn't there a dedicated /a3g/ general since then? It's because nobody cares for it anymore.

>>186057687
Because mods started banning /a3g/ threads, they were shitposting that terrible
Anyway, everytime someone mentions anime images and shitposting appears
We can try adding it for one thread tho.

Don't let your memes be dreams.

>>186058239
Theoretically, it can be done.
I should try it with something really good at pop-ups like the 21, but I'm not sure how extra rocket pods would affect performance.

>>186058392
It has been done and webms were posted. And there were air2air rocket pods irl.

>>186059163
Yup. It was a pretty awful idea to begin with, even if the only target would have been bombers.

>While the drone flew over Castaic, the first crew lined up and fired 42 rockets, completely missing their target. The second interceptor moved into position and unleashed another salvo of 42, the rockets passing just beneath the bright red drone, a few glancing off the fuselage underside, but none detonating.[1] Close to the town of Newhall the pair of jets made a second pass, launching a total of 64 rockets; again none found the mark. The two Scorpion crews adjusted their intervalometer settings and, as the wayward drone headed northeast toward Palmdale, each fired a last salvo of 30 at the target with no hits, dispensing their last rockets. In all, the Air Force element fired 208 rockets and were unable to shoot the Hellcat down.[8]

"Missiles are the future"

>>186059163
>>186060157
In the early '50s, the US air force was focused around the interception of incoming tight Soviet strategic bomber formations, to the exclusion of literally everything else. The logic was that since the speed of aircraft was increasing, you needed a weapon that could take down a Tu-95 in one hit, and a cannon that large would be extremely impractical to mount on an aircraft. Thus, lining up on a run, and spamming dozens of rockets at a formation from range was the chosen solution. It's this line of thinking that led to retarded shit like the AIR-2, incidentally. Later on, as guidance technology improved, the unguided pods were replaced by Falcons and Sidewinders.

>>186060667
This.
Warfare changed this much, same with tanks, is who can hit first and from the longest distance.
Now planes are built to improve its stealth, and have to compensate with software the maneuverability just to be decent enough.
So, the scenarios when a plane is going to be able to use the "gun" become pretty null.
Take tonks for example, they also launch missiles and have way more range than regular rounds, detection and fire range goes up to 12km with the new gen of missiles, compared to the 3 ish km of a sabot.

Anybody play Enemy Engaged? I'm having difficulties trying to lock onto enemies at distances.

>>186060667
I believe there's a school of thought that suggests that at some point ECM and/or CIWS technology will reach a level where missiles become impractical and guns will make a comeback.

>>186063054
I just had a dogfight in a multiplayer lobby. Me and a buddy in F-15s and we were fighting a pair of Su or MiG series aircraft. The engagement lasted 3-4 minutes, none of us were able to get our missiles off, even when we were several miles away, and we just fought it out with guns. I think we might almost be there, one or two more generations of aircraft.

>>186048809
I would happily accept the addition of SSN-21 - that game soaked up many hours I should have spent studying back in Year 10 but ID'ing sonar contacts on the narrowband with the signatures in the booklet made it totally worth it.

>>186048809
>>186066812
If game is not in the list, it doesn't mean it's not accepted
Anyway, gonna add in another thread.

>>186059756
Well to be fair the target was much smaller than anything the interceptor was designed to attack and thier fire control system failed.

>>186056809

I think the MiG-23 has a decent chance though. I honestly believe its the best chance at a new russian fighter. A MiG-23 and MiG-27 would make me happy for a very long time in DCS.

I also have a lot of cool MiG-23 pictures so ima dump some.

Why does ED bother to release WW2 fighters when IL2 exists and it's fairly cemented that people want to play 80's era fighters in DCS?

>>186141686
From my history knowledge, not a lot of countries adopted the MiG-23 because they still had plenty of working MiG-21's when the Flogger became a new thing. Bloc countries weren't exactly known for being rich.

I'm really conflicted about DCS. The developers are objectively terrible, it's a very good study sim but a pretty shitty game and I really, really wish it would become good

That being said even in its current state it has its moments

for example, dunking on F-15 babbys

>>186148104

>>186150550
Nope, all though I'm with no weapons and very low fuel

>>186151117
Does it mean if you master it, you can land very low on everything, re-arm and go as full?

>>186150602
I think that's the tradeoff.

We either get AAA trash where everything is an FC3 plane (but with even less interaction) with no in-depth fidelity modules like the beautiful F5, or we get something like BMS where there is one really, really, really well-designed plane and everything else is so lackluster that they're worth flying.

I hate ED for how obstructive, unclear, and directionless they seem despite being such a small developer (there are development teams five times their size that can at least answer questions directly that the community asks instead of giving confucian non-answers), but I think they've tried to merge the two as best as they can.

I just don't like it. I wish they would have decided, long ago, if DCS world was going to be a sim filled with lots and lots of FC3-like planes, or a sim with a few A-10C-like modules. Maybe they should have just split the FC3 part out into its own game and given us hundreds of low-tech planes like the old Janes games used to have.

>>186151391
No, because you have to use some thrust to stop you from just sliding backwards off the back of the ship, so you wouldn't be able to shut down.

Slamming breaks doesn't keep you in place.

Try to compare with the dump they call subway in New York.

In DCS FC3, are the Mig-29 and the SU-27 just palette swapped planes or do they actually function differently?

>>186157790
DCS is the name you see the most which is why it gets the most shit talked about.

You basically have a couple of choices.

-Falcon BMS, which is great if you just want to fly a Falcon.
-DCS, which lets you fly all sorts of planes with varying levels of accuracy.

Pick your poison, because there really aren't any better options.

Hey, I know the person who makes the Clear HUD mod for the Mig-29 browses here, just wanted to say "Thank you".

You bout to get the pill on the differences

>Su-27
+really good radar
+really good SA because of the HDD showing target speed, heading, altitude
+data link
+lots of fuel + missiles
+PFM
+will beat anything in a turn fight and feels really good doing so

-At high fuel and weapons load it really flies like a fat piece of shit which makes it hard to defeat missiles (i always burn down to at least 5-6k fuel before trying to fight or else you're dead
-flies like a piece of shit at high altitude (I might be doing it wrong but if i get launched on at high alts I can't defeat missiles for shit)
-limited to only SARH
-Can't pull more than 7g's until you hit like 40% fuel and half of your missiles are gone
-annoying amounts of trim required. You run out of nose down trim authority when going 1000km/h+ and below 3k altitude
-have to take pods for ECM which take away two R-73's
>MiG-29
+amazing acceleration and climb rate because of its thrust to weight, you never get caught going slow because based RD-33 engines
+light and nimble at all fuel and weapons loads (historically had a greater than 1 T/W ratio even with full weapons and fuel load
+can crank them really hard 9g turns when you really need to dodge that amraam
+can take all the weapons the SU-27 can, but can also take the R-77 which is the only active russian missile (sucks at any range above 15km but is really good within that)
+MiG-29S has built in ECM

-less weapons and fuel overall, all though you get way more out of your fuel if that makes sense. Like, when you burn you are going to go fast as fuck and you can stay up forever if you are smart and watch the fuel gauge. It will tell you how far you can fly on current power setting
-Honestly terrible radar when compared to Su-27. You'll only be able to lock fighter sized targets at around 45km, which is sometimes already within first pole
-no HDD which really hinders your SA

>>186162437

Basically in a nut shell:

I prefer the flight characteristics of the MiG-29 because I live for F A S T. Being able to pull 9G's when you really need it all while going super fucking fast makes me feel like I can beat anyone 1 on 1 in a BVR fight flying the Fulcrum. I never get caught going slow or feel like I'm out of energy, regardless of fuel, weapons status, or altitude.

At the same time, you sacrifice not having an amazing radar and HDD display which in the Flanker helps you keep the picture when there is a lot going on. Being able to detect people way farther than the engagement ranges is nice, because in the MiG you literally can be within their firing range and still not have a lock. If the Su-27 radar and HDD was on the MiG-29, i would literally never fly the Su-27 2bh. Su-27 is better for really congested airspaces, but if I'm getting launched at, put me in the Fulcrum every time.

That's why the F-15 is so fucking god like. It has the radar and SA of the Su-27, combined with the meme-tier T/W and acceleration of the MiG-29, combined with the best missiles and RWR. Can't beat that shit.

Just a question on control setups - does anyone have experience with using a mouse + joystick combination for flight sims?

I'm thinking that the mouse could be used left handed, binding the scroll wheel as the throttle and using it to look around - sort of a ghetto HOTAS setup where your throttle is also a free-look control. Any thoughts?

>>186175761
I suppose that would work well. Mouse is usually to click shit, while free look is taken over by headtracker

>>186176685

dont fly slav trash

If you dislike the F15, just wait until the F18. It dumpsters the F15 in every single aspect, but especially if you merge, it completely destroys it, it's the worst possible matchup for an F15. HMCS capable turn RADIUS fighter that can sustain and control an absolutely absurd AOA. Even if you try to boom and zoom you'll just end up with an AIM9X in your tailpipe.

Their BVR capability are a lot more similar though, so the matchup will be more even there, but I suspect a fully modelled radar allows for some more indepth filtering or whatever and should perform better than the simple FC3 radar when used by a skilled operator.

Not that I really condone this eSports-lite, but the days of the F15 as the king of DCS are numbered.

>>186163275
nope

>>186183641
But why would I get an F-18 when the F-14 can outrun and outrange it?

>>186188967
Implying you're not an autismo who can never find someone to play with.

>>186189392
what?

>>186175761
I used to do that. Mouse in right hand (wasn't ambidextrous), joystick in left hand (was ambidextrous). A button to switch between mouse look and cockpit clicking. Scroll wheel for zooming.

Used that until I got T.16000 HOTAS and a Delanclip head tracking. Worked OK. Perfect in Il-2 1946 because you can bind throttle to the scroll wheel. OK in DCS (flew most in DCS). In BMS it works but you need move the mouse to the center of the screen and use a (possibly secrit?) button to toggle mouse look. Then the middle of the screen does the clicking. My problem with BMS was that mouse look was very laggy. Not crisp and smooth at all.

I really wish all flight sims had a mode like mouse look except there is also an FPS-like crosshair in the middle of the screen to play with buttons. No need to switch between modes that way.

If you export it to stand-alone and don't play it on steam, you're getting infinity hours and still able to refund.

That's something we no longer have in capitalist russia.

>>186202419
No, I'm pretty sure most western countries have free healthcare and really cheap education. Remember, the US isn't the only western country.

>>186202627
Russian is my third language not first, so try again.

Sounds like a bitch place to live with that terrain
>Was reduced to a shithole of a village when capitalism set in.
Same here. Here a lot of people moved to bigger cities, villages/towns are just dying out because it's elders mostly. I'm not old enough to have lived in SSR, but I heard it wasn't that bad as people make it out to be. Nowadays people are irritable here, because government is just fucking up everyone.

>>186201590
Yeah, true, don't know any similar game 2bh.
Well one good thing is that modding exists atleast.

>>186204390
Yeah. I'm glad that modders actually produced somewhat good tracked vehicles.

>>186205717
>tracked vehicles
Holy shit someone made that? I need to dowload spintires again

>>186207819
Yep. There's a few even on the workshop. You need Spintires+ for them to work.

These are your words, how should I interpret them?

>>186214949
Capitalism causes multiculturalism and ruins communities.

Also not him and i'm fucking with you.

>>186216857
Not him, but wow, it seems like life is going so peaceful and well in Germany, UK, France, US

>>186217906
What are you talking about Germany is very peaceful, in fact they are planning on putting drugs in the water so that people will be even more accepting of the peace.

>>186218179
>they are planning on putting drugs in the water so that people will be even more accepting of the peace.
Could do quick rundown?

>>186218304
Some researchers think that putting drugs in water would make people more accepting of migrants.

>>186218491
That's fucking dumb
Thanks
Anyway
