  1. I stand corrected. Not sure where I picked up that bad info.
  2. Arma is frequently referred to as a "walking simulator." The most popular terrains are the smaller, more highly-detailed ones. DCS terrains are orders of magnitude larger than Arma terrains, with a fraction of the elevation mesh resolution. Altis is Arma's Caucasus. Here is an accurate comparison: One of the larger Arma terrains sits comfortably inside a 3x3 grid square box. The vast majority of Arma players don't want this, and I would wager that a decent amount of those who think they do would change their mind pretty quickly. Improving AI is always welcome, but let's not waste any time on this pipe dream.
  3. 100% sure that's a spammer using AI.
  4. Maybe if you're going fast enough...
  5. Since the sample rate of the Track IR camera is 120Hz, it stands to reason that the closer you are to running at 120fps the better. Not sure why those 3 frames are giving you such a noticeable improvement, though. Perhaps something to do with breaking the half-framerate barrier? Though now looking back at some discussions, it seems that historically the issue was that any framerate between 60 and 120fps would cause stuttering, so folks were locking at 60fps. Interesting!
  6. Latency and bandwidth make Bluetooth a nonstarter for gaming. Maybe not so terrible for flight simming, but it really depends on the headset and BT controller - latency can get as high as half a second and audio quality will never be "good." USB wireless headsets exhibit far better performance than Bluetooth. They seem to be very popular with gamers and simmers, so that would be an option. For best quality and fewest issues, my choice would be (and is) wired.
  7. You are likely to get as many different answers as you are responses. Maybe refine your question a bit? What would work best for you, an analog headset (plug into audio jacks on your PC/interface), a digital (USB) headset, a pair of headphones and a separate mic (and again, analog or digital)?
  8. I've heard nothing but good things about the Virpil, so they seem to be a great option.
  9. I love my MFG Crosswinds, they are super-smooth and tweakable to my liking. That said, they are the only "good" pedals I have owned. When I bought my first pedals, the CH Pro Rudder, it was a revelation, but after a few years I became too aware of its flaws.
  10. The only tracer ammunition fired by the GAU-8 is the PGU-15 TP training round.
  11. And everyone is asking you to prove it.
  12. OK boomer. Yeah, there was one in II as well, and they weren't real Hinds, but the effect was the same. I know I'm not alone in originally thinking the Apache was cool because of Blue Thunder, which was a Gazelle. I wasn't really a Rambo fan.
