  1. I find theres a temptation when you are in a good hover pre-land to just go "Cool, Im close enough!" and drop a chunk of collective... which means you get some yaw on descent, and generally means you're tipping.

    I still botch my landings about 5% of the time, but its always due to my own impatience.  

  2. Im glad Im not the only one with this issue!  It being an INU discrepency in MP definitely also explains the significant displacement I see in Stored target locations I slave to as Gunner.

    Is this officially reported as a bug?  Ive outright stopped using Longbows in MP due to their unreliability.

     

    EDIT: Also the double explosion is probably the fragmentation script if its run on your server.

  3. I've lately had several occurrences of total loss of control when my Hind suffered significant damage.  I assumed that this was due to some vital control line being severed, however upon investigation I think it may be a pilot kill scenario that isnt giving the "Black screen" as expected, and as has been established in all other aircraft.  I have in fact received no black screen death scenarios in the Hind, which seemed odd despite its very well protected cockpit.

     

    During the "H-4 Takedown" scenario, I was struck by a Gepard's 35mm HE rounds as shown.  I had a loss of any control inputs, and my helo flew into the ground along the path it had been taking before struck.

     

    I was unable to change to my ATGM operator position as well in this event, which is odd as the log showed no history of him being killed.

  4. I can't remmeber if I poste this here or not but at

    I started a thread about a community thud mod. I am trying to see what information the Air Force historical research and museum have available. As I said before I'd rather have an FC thud than no thud. I'm not much on coding and even worse with 3d models so anyone can help?

     

    Well now that you started a thread, I guess we'll HAVE to make it

  5. My feelings exactly!

     

    Same!!!

     

    I'm sixty freaking years old!!!!

     

    Every day I make the choice between plugging in my HOTAS or emptying my colostomy bag and Im proud to say I'm filled to the brim and ready to burst, baby!!!!

  6. I feel everyone's pain, I was you guys not too long ago, I don't forget. Every penny I have is important to me, but I also see deep inside the development and hard work that goes into all these products. There has to be a balance, and whether people want to believe it or not, ED does their best to try and find the best solution, and even change if they can.

     

    Did you register my tangible cringe of pain reading his post?

  7. Yeah, but that guy isn't exactly buying the Carrier module either. So he will continue with the A-10 instead of getting hyped for carrier ops. Or he feels the need for the Tomcat or the Hornet and buys into the whole experience.

    There usually is a market for something or there isn't. I'd love to see a solution to carrier ops light combined with the new module, but I can't see how? Have cheaper "players" see empty ocean? Oh, wait, I have an idea. ED could do this like the major labels, just launch a new game titled "NAVY Carrier Ops" based on DCS as a separate game. Include the finished Hornet with some more assets and features together with the F-14 special version and the new carrier, for a full game price and fully incompatible with DCS World?

     

    I'd be interested in a full price module that stops you from posting.

  8. I am a single player player, and being unaffected by the potential discrepancies and disruptions in gameplay that the MP community may face, it falls to me to defend the devs honor.

     

    Come! Face me, you multiplayer apes!!!! I'll strike you all down to a man!!!

     

    Long live ED!!!!

  9. The person you described does not exist.

     

    If he actually does, can you provide his username? I seriously doubt there's a ton of players who just buy one module on discount and expect the full experience without the proper controllers.

     

    Slot off, fragface!!!!

  10. Hello :) How is the Gazelle faring versus BMP2 and 3's, namely their ATGM's? I imagine they're going to be one of the biggest threats in most missions I fly with friends in MP. Since I am waiting for the 1.53 release, I was wondering if anyone has gathered any experience yet against them.

     

    Is their situational-awareness enough to get the first shot on your Gazelle routinely? Or does firing and displacing until their AI "resets" work?

     

    I imagine the Tunguska etc will be above our pay-grade so to speak, so what other threats do you folks find are going to be a concern? Seems we can outrange the 14.5mm handily, and I imagine the 23mm Shilka if we play smart.

  11. Hi

     

    Basically the autopilot behaves like a stability augmentation system (SAS) and also features auto-hover, speed hold, altitude hold modes, plus the ability to slave the helicopter movements to the camera when targeting.

     

    Thats perfect then :) Its fascinating to see how pilot assistance and autopilot evolved from the Huey onward. The Gazelle sounds like it'll be very easy to fly!

  12. Yeah I'm not getting the ability to contact my JTAC at all :( Frequency to 30 but not seeing any option to contact the guys down there.

     

    Flown to all points marked (Scan for target, ingress, target, egress) but nothing pops to allow me to establish contact. That means no wedding cake, so no attack from above the clouds :(

     

    Checked the OP and that method was not succesful I fear.

  13. On Mission 5 I think (C-130 goes airborne, I have to check in with Echo 3 times) and after the third check-in, I get the report that Echo 2 is under fire 13 miles out. I fly out there, but none of the TGP settings or waypoints point to where Echo 2 is, and since Im not using labels I'm unable to locate any targets. When I try again with labels enabled, none of the waypoints or TGP slew points are anywhere near the proper location and after a short while I get the message Echo 2 was wiped out.

     

    This is bizarre, because Echo 2 is very much alive still, albeit with some casualties.

     

    If the TGP slewing to waypoints is due to elevation differences, what is the correct procedure to correct the discrepency? In reality, how would a pilot go about getting an accurate altitude and changing the waypoint appropriately via cdu? Or is it proper to use the TAD to just hook the wedding cake after decluttering the TAD to show cake only?

  14. Hello there :)

     

    is the amount of pressure that initiates the deactivation of autopilot and the restoration of the aircraft's normal controls at all changeable ingame via the pilot's interface?

     

    Not meaning some weird file tweak or anything, but I've a pretty sensitive stick so I accidentally override autopilot quite alot with my T-16000M. Is there any way to change the amount of pressure that would cause the autopilot to disengage, or is this a hard-set setting in the real aircraft as well?
