Artillery. Remember though, you don't need to kill them in order to render them ineffective. Smoke can block LOS and you can stun them will artillery so you can bring a bomber in safely. Wargame isn't like rock paper scissors in that there's a single counter for everything - you need to use combined arms tactics.

So, any word on if this will go on sale within 2 weeks of release? I'd buy it now, but if that shit happens again...well...

And this is exactly why I would've preferred a maneuver fighter rather than another energy fighter. Different style but equally capable. It makes it more interesting :).

Kinda kills your motivation to play when you've had a long run in and then the game crashes.

You know how bad the support system is here, right? My buddy has been waiting 9 weeks for a reply.

I was having trouble with ILS yesterday. It wasn't picking up the signal and the indicators were not working.

Metric master race! :D

The A-10 is a viable AA platform provided you're quick enough and can get into a knife fight. You've got to bag them within the first turn before they can scoot away.

So what you're alluding to is a missile mafia? :p

Oh they can since they claimed it was a feature then removed it from the beta. They're obliged to. Of course, they can attempt to get away with it but then they can expect several small claims court cases.

Beyerdynamic MMX-300. I keep clear of wireless and USB headsets for audio quality reasons.

Well it is better than no F-15E. FSX does have the advantage compared to DCS in some categories. Until I can fly a DC-3 across Alaska in DCS I'll keep playing it.

Can you clarify the bolded part please? You've piqued my curiosity with that one.

Does EDGE stand for "Extremely Delayed Graphics Engine"? :D I jest, I jest!

True. If it had been DCS: F-4 I would've wept tears of joy.

Well everyone, it has been a very funny thread. Got a few laughs out of it. I'd like to say thank-you to the members of the "ZOMG F-35 IS AWESOMESAUCE" crowd, and a thanks for all the useless pictures that I wasted bandwidth on. You're awesome! I would however like to point out that if the F-35 was the coming of the aircraft messiah that some seem to proclaim, why were there alleged backhand deals done to sell it in Europe? Oops, off topic... Secondly, thank-you to the "F-35 is a flying heap of junk" crowd. Between the above group and yours, the slugging matches have been amusing to say the least. Finally, I'd like to praise those that form the "Mum! He's saying bad things are going to happen and is trying to shatter my illusions of sunshine and bunnies!" group. Ah, like the arguments of children in a playground. It has been quite a roller-coaster indeed.

How dare anybody say anything bad!? The horror!

Not even half way and there's 3 days to go. Oh dear.

Personally I think there's too much emphasis on "auto" this and "auto" that. It wouldn't surprise me if pilots are forgetting how to pilot.

I can't get 6DOF to work in the F-15 and Su-27 in MP. Works fine in SP but refuses to work in MP. Can anybody reproduce?

Thanks for doing this ED. You've just gone up in my books. I genuinely thought you wouldn't do a discount at all.

Hopefully this won't come in late, over-budget and riddled with problems like the real jet. An excellent waste of taxpayer's money for the UK.

Like it or not, the man has a point. No need to be childish about it.

Those are A-10As, not A-10Cs.

Ah! Quite the accomplishment... ...especially since it is the only one.
