I have an youtube channel in Portuguese to help new DCS players. With an influx of new players, a lot of questions started to be asked repeatedly. I gathered the most common ones and made one video trying to cover them at once. I realised that I could use the video template and remake it in English so the rest of the world can also enjoy. I'm sorry that my English is not the best, but I'll later on add English subtitles to help with my accent. So, here's the link, I hope you like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAjMGg4R26M

I know DCS is primarily a flight simulator, but I love playing with Combined Arms, especially online with friends. The best moments we have are when one or two players are flying attack aircraft while the rest of us are driving on the ground, fighting our way through and calling for air support. This experience gave me an idea—a suggestion that could potentially bring more new players to DCS! Buying a HOTAS is expensive for many potential newcomers, but everyone already has a mouse and keyboard. I’d even bet that most people are already familiar with controlling vehicles using them. My suggestion is simple: Add an American Humvee and a Russian Tigr as free ground units. Imagine this scenario: A new DCS player is enjoying their time flying an A-10 or has just learned how to fly the Su-25T with their new HOTAS. Now, they’re trying to convince their friends to give DCS a shot. However, there’s resistance because their friends don’t even own a basic joystick, let alone a HOTAS. But now, those friends have the option to play as a Humvee or Tigr driver. The player with the plane can create missions where ground units have to survive a battlefield or navigate through dangerous terrain. Their non-flying friends can hop in and play with ease using just a keyboard and mouse while experiencing the incredible scale of DCS. In this scenario, they see their friend flying overhead, dropping bombs, helping them survive, and performing thrilling gun runs dangerously close to the action. What will these players think? What will they want to do next? You guessed it — they’ll want to try flying the Su-25T or even go all in and purchase an A-10, F-16, F-18, or another aircraft module. I believe DCS World has immense, untapped potential for gameplay with ground units. Adding free, accessible ground vehicles for new players to explore could make DCS far less intimidating for beginners. Once they’re hooked on the immersive experience, they’ll naturally want to take to the skies in an aircraft. So that’s my suggestion. What do you think?

I can confirm, it's fixed! Finally!

Good to know I'm not the only one with the same problem. Too bad no solution to fix it is available. YoloMouse seems a good alternative, I'll give it a try.
