  1. Anybody could answer. It wasn't an offensive thread or anything, It is just strange when something like that disappears over night without explanation. Unless it all erupted while I was away?
  2. So where has the DCS: F15 thread gone? Was it removed for any particular reason?
  3. I agree on all of this, pulling G has many reactions that I'd love to see in the Sim eventually such as the vibration and wind noise as well as what has been mentioned here in regards to vapour and flexing. I'd love to see better Afterburner effects also. I guess we'll start seeing more effects like this as the foundations are more firmly in place for the sim (EDGE) If sevenG can achieve good looking wing flex, I'm sure ED can down the line. I really don't understand people that say these kind of effects are a waste of resources however. Surely we play sims like this in the hope they will drag us into the moment, especially with future tech looking more and more impressive with the oculus and similar devices. I can only dream of the day we can scream through some realistic looking valleys in our F-18, dropping our bombs on target only to realise you have a bandit chasing you down forcing you to get your head on a swivel, looking back to see the wings flexing away and engulfed in vapour as you pull hard trying to shake the bad guy, all with rain drops crashing into your canopy... isn't that what such games are all about ultimately? Hopefully small effects like these will all come together to produce that kind of experience one day.
  4. Haha, a very fair point.
  5. Hey, I imagine I'd be scared of firefights but I love a bit of Battlefield 4 ;)
  6. That's a great shot of the F-15c!! It would be nice to see more natural looking afterburners at some point, otherwise you have to look twice to see if it is real or not..
  7. I had the X52 pro and didn't like it at all personally. Cheap feeling, too light and had some software problems on my windows 7 64bit set up including blue screens. An opinion reinforced greatly when I got my Warthog Hotas..
  8. I'm leaving the forum for the day... :lol:
  9. Lots of cool news in this newsletter. Good to hear the F-18 is being worked on hard and DCS level Armour sounds very interesting even to me.
  10. Confirmed 1.2.8, Awesome news!!
  11. Me too, Microsoft didn't really cover themselves in glory with the whole Xbox one scenario but they and other competitors probably just took a huge boost from this. I suspect many people ignored the competition in favour of the rift up until yesterday. They have an opportunity now to capitalise if they do things right. Facebook branding.. http://www.theverge.com/2014/3/26/5549186/facebook-rebrand-oculus-rift-headset
  12. Facebook is hardly the most trustworthy brand and like Google, they just love to invade your privacy (locations etc) I can see it already, you'll need a Facebook account to use the rift, not a problem for me but not everybody wants one and it will no doubt try to post everything you are doing to your wall. And my main worry is that this will now force adds on you, that is the world we live in now and it is how these companies make their money. They are universally hated but that won't stop them, and nothing will take you out of a gaming experience like adds popping up. Even if the Facebook money speeds up development, I would rather have waited a bit longer personally. Maybe my fears are unfounded but we will see....
  13. The picture has been removed..
  14. I'm sure it will be worth the wait...
  15. http://kotaku.com/facebook-buys-oculus-rift-for-2-billion-1551487939 I hope this isn't true, but reports are saying Facebook has purchased Oculus VR for $2 billion.
  16. Never ask for help Photoshopping on the internet ;) http://m.tickld.com/x/this-is-why-you-should-never-trust-people
  17. That one is great! :D
  18. F-4 Phantom display, not HD unfortunately.
  19. Damn, hope everyone is okay? Doesn't look good.
  20. Best news in ages!!! Can't wait...
  21. Love it Joey, I wonder if they will give us our Tornado module one day...
  22. Now that would be some update ;)
  23. Another F-18 crash, in Nevada. http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=79435
  24. Oh it's an old one then, many thanks.
  25. Mystery stealth mock up spotted at BAE this week... Any ideas? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x20rg1gCBNM
