I think DevKits should only be worse looking.... functionality and specs shoyld not be different from actual final product. In order to release final product they must first have tested it (actual hardware) and it wont be as good looking as final product (fact is most people still want a cool looking gadget). So if this test kit is not good enough, it wont matter if final product is cool looking. But in the end unless eventually I try one myself I can never know for sure... time will tell, but now I am sceptical

Well unless he has little bit bad vision, I take his comment as what I would see (or not see) if I tried one. There's been too many disappointments and I wouldn't be surprised if this was just another one of that list.

Thanks for the links, I am no longer looking forward to this OR... if you can't read instruments and text, it is useless for DCS... at least the guy was honest enough about his experience with it in DCS.

My 2 cents: CPU is good (do overclock it, doesn't have to be extreme but do, do it :) ) 16GB of RAM is not anything you will need (I use about 1/2 of that when I fly, and I have 16GB also... it's not too expensive so its no big deal, just don't need to go for ultra expensive RAM, medium priced will do, you really won't see ANY difference in game). Video card, get as fast as you can... it will always be beneficial, just don't get dual GPU combo, DCS is not good with it (maybe EDGE will change this, if it does, you can always get second card or new one) Solid performance motherboard, and good for overclocking. What I look for in motherboard is all ports I will use, and as we need lot of USB peripherals, I like it to have lot of rear USB ports... and I like stability, and ASUS boards are so far like that. Last word... make sure you get SSD for OS and games... you WILL benefit from lot faster loading times and faster loading OS... opening/closing programs... it just IS worth it.

I'll buy it again anyway... I just want the DVD and T-shirt :)

You guys have been very helpful to community... I want to wish you both a happy birthday:yay:

you are better off running both monitors off the same video card.

I tried exporting only the radar in F-15C and Su-27... that's it... but as things just don't work properly I got the shits and just took the secondary card out, disconnected the extra 2 monitors and then sadly when I tried setting up everything back with 4 monitors on single card, something happened while I was enabling eyefinity... monitors would just never turn on and machine would keep crashing and rebooting... eventually I just couldn't be f***ed any more trying to sort it out, I went all out and reinstalled Windows... now I am in process of setting up everything back... what a pain I think I will never again try to use 2 video cards, just too much trouble and issues... I so hope Oculus Rift lives up to expectations... if it does I will finally ditch these multi-monitors... just too much trouble

One can't live without the other... and if you do... there you have Korean air war :joystick:

Yes, 3 in eyefinity on HD7970 + 1, then remaining 2 on R7 240. I installed the new beta driver and it seems to work bit better, it stopped resetting resolution and position of one of the monitors. I have found though that exporting radar in FC3 makes gave very stutters... Using only 3 monitors in eyefinity and game runs much smoother...

they are onto you outlawal2 :D just kidding :)

keep trolling

wow... didn't know that you can tell if aircraft is stealthy just by looking at it... I think they need to hire you :) And while you're at it, you should tell them that the SU-27 airframe is not most perfect (so far) aerodynamic airframe... any aircraft can do a cobra and not flip to the side... or go in reverse and engines will not stall... man just what were those ruskies thinking?!

I am so pissed off right now... I've been trying to setup 6 monitors using 2 video cards (HD7970 and R7 240) and all I'm getting is rubish...one monitor (on R7 240 that's connected to HDMI port via VGA adaptor) keep reseting its position and resolution every time DCS starts (when it switches/turns off screens when loading, or windows restart)... I am going nuts. Why can't these bloody programmers make shit that once in time just f**ing works! So I'm gonna have to try this beta driver but I am certain it won't help (I can't remember last time that I had driver update and that it helped some issue.. it's always either no difference or some new shit is broken... what rubish AMD has become.. or maybe always was)

Oh look what I found... new Lada :)

Happy birthday... but no party for you... keep working on that MiG-21! :ranting: After it's done you can party for a month! :D

has to be humor... the Lada car actually did change througout the years... I would know... my dad had 2 of them, and quite frankly it was still nice car... and great for tougher winter conditions with lots of snow and ice :) The Su-27 family also developed through time so someone just doesn't like Russians :D

Go easy on them... they are busy with the MiG, don't put more on his plate than he needs to have :)

I totally agree with everyone's sentiment... this thing just sucks! :mad: ... oh wait.. wrong forum :D THE MIG-21 IS REALLY OUTSTANDING! :thumbup: The lovely surprise I saw in the video is shake of the front pitot tube :bounce: RESPECT FOR EVERYONE THAT WORKED ON THIS AIRCRAFT... THE LEGEND WILL KEEP FLYING :joystick:

I can think of another example where it would be beneficial to make enemy think you have fired at him... and this is when you have numbers advantage and have multiple groups approaching from different directions... you might want to have one group getting the STT lock and bait... while secondary is approaching with real missile inbound or about to be fired. And as Weta already said, sometimes all you want is enemy to go defensive and abort.

Which today was that... today's today or yesterday's today? Today is still here another 2,5h :) They need to start quoting what time zone they talk about!

It's not that STT lock won't give any warning... it will... but actual missile launch doesn't give a warning that missile is launched... so (from what I've heard from real pilot) is that once you are spiked (STT lock on you) you go evasive as this is considered that missile is/could be fired at you... the way I understood it is that there is no differential warning from STT lock and missile fired.

GG, IASGATG, sorry guys but I realise I made an error in my principle, I see now that given all conditions are equal (speed, altitude etc) for both 120 and ER, the 120 will decelerate a tad slower (as it has little advantage in highe ratio of drag vs ratio of inertia - the 2 forces working against each other) so, taking into account the ER accelerates faster and is faster missile, especially if at higher altitude (where drag has less influence to slow the missile down) but decelerates bit faster, either missile could be longer ranged or equal, but as 120 is lighter I would say at terminal stage the 120 is possibly more manouverbale... but then again the ER has larger fins... so bloody hell... too many factors :(

It depends on ratio of differences in those mass and drag coeff. If they are both equal... they will decelerate the same, but if one is higher than the other then they won't. And in space drag is 0 zero, so regardless of mass or shape they will not decelerate at all... Inertia will not be lost and both missiles will just keep going (like space travel where engines are only used to change trajectory or velocity)
