Hello,
After a few years of being out of the combat flight simulator loop I was happy to stumble across my very first copy of LOMAC I had bought years ago. Version 1.0. My service in the Military kept me away from having the time invest in flight sims. Now I am a out of the military I am happy to say I have the time to get back into my flight sim gaming passion. And from what I have seen and researched so far ED has brought the sim genre very far from the days of Flanker, Falcon4, Janes FA-18 ect... Aside from all that ill get to the point of my post. What I am looking for are suggestions from the community on Hardware, Hotas ect.. my specs on my machine right now is as follows, and I know its sad
Acer Aspire 5745
Intel Core i3-350m
Intel HD Graphics
4GB DDR3
Logitech Game Pad (which sucks btw wish i had my old X-45)
I bought FC2 and I have it running ok with a lot of tweaking to my graphics.cfg file. The game pad works...for now but i want to invest in a Hotas, I dont have the kind of funding to get a ThrustMaster (maybe one day)
Point of my post, Is Saitek still the way to go with a Hotas or our there other options out there now days and I plan on building my own system so which gfx card company should I go with? Invidia or ATI the way to go?
Any input from forum members would be great. Thank you in advance.
Scout Out!
