  1. Exactly. We need more info. Simple "It's broken" doesn't tell much.
  2. There is no way to tell to if somone's using ecm macro or manually blinking it, so this whole issue is imho pretty much pointless.
  3. I'm pretty sure those are bots and not real people. If that's the case, they might be using a brute force method of figuring out your password (pre-defined list of popular words), and as such, chances of your account getting hacked are very small.
  4. Guys, time to do a reality check. It was probably drunk russian pilot straying off from the excercise area and mistaking the georgian village for a terrorist chechen camp. Hey, sh*t happens, and in this case, there was some vodka in the mix as well.
  5. Parsi..what??? :D On the subject: If it's not in the game, then there has to be a strong reason ED didn't put it there..my "guess" is, they've more info on Ka-50 and then anyone of us.
  6. No radars? But that so sucks. Doing only gunzo with that jets is like having 2 Ferraris racing inside the pitlane. With speed limiter on. And with rain tires. On a sunny day. Need I say more?
  7. ^^ No problem m8. The last thing I wanted is to criticize you. I know how frustrating can be when you're trying to mod a game with very little options available. ;)
  8. Fox, I'm worried if you start using that map locally. That's when the alarm bell goes off saying "Eeeasy with the Lockon!". :D
  9. What happens if ED for whatever reason stops supporting FC? I know that they're giving away keys when u send them email, but what if, say, a year or two from now, I decide to re-install FC and run out of keys and don't get any replies from them? This is one of my fears. I also feel as if game I bought is somehow borrowed. Hope I'm not going to get misunderstood here, just thinking out loud.
  10. Seems to me like a re-skinned MiG-29 cockpit. I can't really get into it as such, but this is not author's fault it's the limitations of sim in terms of editing. I gotta say though, kudos to the guys making this (with very little possibilities they had). I'm sure fair number of fans will love this addon!
  11. Wow, so many squadrons. So which ones would you put in your top list??
  12. "Before 2008" sounded too cryptic to me. :D Ok..here goes my noobish vote..:book:
  13. Speaking of missiles, in Ethiopia-Erithrea conflict were they using R-27Rs or ERs as well? Those performed so bad it's beyond belief, I think only one managed to damage a MiG-29. So what was the deal there? Were the pilots just spamming the missiles like crazy, fighting for life & death, were both sides so good they knew how to beat the missiles, or were the missiles just simply bad?
  14. You're missing "Sometime this year" option, so I'm not gonna vote. Maybe you thought it's unrealistic I guess so you didn't include it..:D
  15. Thanks for answer Alfa! I didn't know 29K had actually weaker radar? Well yeah, the size I guess makes a difference there betwen Flanker and MiG. As for its role, well, if Kuz is really that pumped up with SSM and can do all that stuff, having AA oriented fighter would make some sense. US carriers are (I believe) a lot less equipped in terms of SSM doctrine and let the airforce do the beating.
  16. How come MiG-29K with its more advanced avionics, radar and weapons system, smaller and more suitable for carrier, was rejected in favour of Su-27K with its outdated avionics, weapons and it's huge like 747??? I just read some articles on 29K on globalsecurity.org.. Could someone please explain me the logic behind this decision??? Thanks!
  17. How complex avionics-wise is EECH2 compared to LO:FC?
  18. Wow, that must have been one of the biggest aerial battles ever, even bigger then the Battle Of Britain.
  19. True, but do u think they'd spend so much into developement of MiG-35 just to equip it with poor peforming A-A missiles? As for those R-27's, it's hard to believe they performed so badly against not so difficult opponent (we're talking MiG 29A here).
  20. Against which airframes? Iraqi and serbian outdated MiG-29A's with at best, mediocre trained pilots? You can't compare those old buckets with 35, unless you're referring to the big picture, AWACS, logistics etc., but that's again completely different subject. I believe these latest MiGs wouldn't be as easy to kill as the ones almost 30 yrs old, to say the least.
  21. Well, that's easy. Just enable that lua thingie posted before and then put your mouse directly on your head, and it will just follow your head movements inside the cockpit.
  22. DPS here's a bad rep for annihilating that chick with a cluster bomb!
  23. IRL chances to hit a jet from a tank-mounted MG are very slim.
  24. Well, if you want a 6DOF cockpit, why don't you build one by yourself?:joystick:
