Well, I don't mind them cheating so much, as long as I can lock up targets under 300 km/hr ( like the manual says you can ) too. And I can understand the radial velocity, but I can't lock up jets even 8 km away! I think you made it where we can't lock up jets period. Yet the AI are 30mm snipers that can take out F-18's at well over 300 km/hr!

I was wondering why we can't lock up slow moving jets in the sim. I have BS1 1.02. Even if their flying about 200 km/hr, I can't lock them up. Yet when I'm flying A-10 Warthog, even if I'm nearing 300 km an hour on an attack run, the enemy Sharks can lock me up at max range without any problem. I've learned never to get close to enemy heli's with EO gun sights. I've also seen apaches's lock up SU-27's and Sharks shoot at F-18's. Yet I can never lock up an F-18 in the Shark, even when he is barely cruising by at close range. As I've read in the manual, we should be able to lock anything up to about 300 km/hr. Has this been corrected in BS2?

Ahh, ok. I was thinking it was kind of weird.

So what is the guy doing in this video? Is this force correlate? It seems strange, because he says middle boat switch is "ground stabilize" and TMS Aft Short is "uncage". That's not what it says in the manual I have. It says Middle Boat Switch is "Force Correlate / Auto" and TMS Aft Short is "ground stabilize". Yet, in the video, it seems to be what he says.

So, how does force correlate work, since it doesn't track any moving target? Not a contrast lock?

I only see about $20 worth of stuff here, personally. They even still have the green boxes around the targets. Little has changed. And I think they are going to have a tough sell to the Arma regulars as well. I don't think they are interested in the FM as much as they are interested in the HUD and more realistic targeting systems, like Shkval, EO, and FLIR. Though I really don't know what the HUD or instruments of something old like the Hind look like.

Now if we can just get a discount on the HOTAS.

Now that's what I call some "well disciplined" :music_whistling: ground troops. God we need some better AI.

Yeah, its just to keep the F-104 site secret.

Eeew! Missed that. Nice shot, BIS. :thumbup:

Nice. I think what really needs work is your cockpit. We need to be able to clearly see all the analog guages working. Plus, realistic HUD and MFDs.

Lol, the MOB RULES. At least you guys listen to your peeps. Now, may I suggest you do some more work on your Hind and bring it up to the FC2 level.

I was just looking around because they're hard to find. Most places are out of stock and the Cougar has been discontinued. Your best bet might be to pay about twice that much and get a Warthog, but they're expensive. Your only other real option is too look at a Saitek joystick. They're probably the cheapest, but aren't near as nice as the Cougar or Warthog. Also, two other good sticks are CH Hotas, and Logitech makes a Hotas. Plus, this: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=77287&highlight=mig+hotas

Not worth it. Pretty junk. For a little more, you can buy a used Cougar. I saw one a while back for $189. I think it was on Amazon.

Yeah, overall, its seems things have gotten too expensive, and they just don't make 'em like they used to. Everythings just thrown together these days by uneducated, underpaid workers who really don't give a dam about their jobs. Hopefully, things will change in the future, and companies and workers will care more about the products they turn out.

Sweet. Got CNN on the tube, and the popcorn in the microwave. What was it Patton said? "God help me, I do love it."? That and it beats the current crop of Reality TV.

Lol, take a wild guess.

Minus the flight model, you would think at least as good a cockpit as FC2. So far, its a bad joke. Even the RWR doesn't work. While the graphics aren't too bad, the instruments remind me of some 80's flight sim.

Hmm, Well, I remember the one in Falcon. You dropped it, lived for about 2 more minutes, then the world ended in a blinding flash.

What is AE?

Yeah, I'm not too thrilled with it yet. I don't think I'll be purchasing it, at least not until I see a good demo. I expected this since they were being so secretive ( not a single real video till the day it launched, and then little at that). I'm still waiting to see a video that actually shows all the controls, weapons, etc. Maybe the ACE Team can do something with it. They and some of the other modders are the only reason Arma 2 is decent. Vanilla Arma sucks.

Already seen that one. One with a few minutes of combat showing off the shkval?, rockets, cannons, different armament would be good. Also the vehicles, ground troops, and AI performance. I really don't expect realistic startup procedures like the shark, but showing key elements like the shkval, laser guidance, etc are critical. We expect to see something on par with Flaming Cliffs 2.

Hey Dwarden, 10 minutes of some good ingame video on youtube would be nice. Your other video's a little short. And on another note, isn't the Super Hind supposed to have a western style HUD instead of the old reflector sight?

Looks like the other thread is being taken up again, so lets close this one and go there, since it has like 35 pages. Actually, I see Dwarden from BIS just posted a link there as well. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=71028

I think its Mi24-P (Hind-F), Mi-24V, and the "Super-Hind" (Mi-35?).
