way to get our hopes up!

Bucic, thanks for the real ATGM footage. Good to remember what we're shooting for (realism) instead of "explosions that look awesome"

Wait... you loaded two targeting pods? Does the loadout editor let you create custom loads? I thought it was just the pre-designed loadouts to choose from.

Some of you asking for "better" explosions may be asking for explosions that look like the movies, and like less realistic games, which may not look at all like a real weapon employment. I'm not saying that DCS' explosions are right on, but be careful what you're expecting to see. Your expectations could be unrealistic. Animals did wonders for ArmA2's immersion. When I see a rabbit running around in the middle of my mission, it feels real.

Where can I get these? I'll just admit it, I want to reverse-engineer it because I can't figure out how to skin A-10Cs myself ;) I'd sorta like to have Canada skins around, too.

When I first noticed the cannon rounds ricocheting, I felt like I was back in the Army shooting a .50 cal with tracers (though of course the GAU is much bigger!). Amazing feeling.
