  1. I can't remember off hand but they we're probably removed by the D-5. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1906537283?keywords=ju87&qid=1451884075&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2
  2. I'll definitely get any F15 ... my dad has worked on their radar and other systems since the 70's. I'd imagine he'd love to see how accurate DCS gets that part of the modeling.
  3. Yes, the shipping charges ... forgot to mention that additional charge or the Cam5/Width adjustment sets I added to the order in case I ever needed them. This will end up falling into the its better to ask forgiveness than permission category.
  4. My wife said well how much do they cost ... I said 256 then lowered my voice to say Euros. I live in the US so I'll play dumb to the conversion rate then the bill comes along which will be close to my birthday anyways. I'll just be a real good boy for the next couple of months. I hope they release the extensions before my order comes up because I may just have them throw it in there also.
  5. $95? Wow I guess if someone was making an Mi-8 cockpit they would have to buy that lol.
  6. Exactly. It has to be the same and TBH the large icons were just as bad as having icons running. Some people need to work on their spotting skills because alot of them are just not scanning. Shot down a guy in the Mustang about week back who didn't spot me and I got the "well to bad I never got to see you routine". I'd been following him for almost 2 minutes trying to catch up and if he'd just done shallow left or right turns while looking back he'd spotted me. Good Mustang pilots are alot harder to jump like that and they usually require speeds of 675-750 kph to really surprise them. I'd like to see sun glare forced server side so that becomes a viable attack strategy. I think in the end ED is going to have to increase LOD size and distances for all aircraft instead of messing with a scaling system unless it improves.
  7. We'd like our passengers to be packing heat and jumping out at 2000 ft over an LZ or rolling the cargo out of a moving plane with a parachute attached. Combat landings and takeoffs ... not silverware while on autopilot.
  8. We'd have to hear from the Devs if they can even go bigger with the NTTR map within the same engine. The borders already have low res or medium res areas and they would have to be bumped up if expanded. I'd imagine adding larger cities or multiple large cities would have some effect on the maps. NTTR map is beautiful and DCS has great flight characteristics but if you just want to fly around take out the training P-51, one of huge allotment of jet trainers, or simply fly around the unarmed huey. I hope none of the devs waste time on civilian planes ... C-130 or military tanker/transports are good IMO if they want to go the non-combat route.
  9. The wife just gave me the green light ... February delivery hopefully. Now if someone would just make a decent FFB Hotas or mod for my TM Warthog I'd be in heaven.
  10. Keep working on your spotting skills ... most servers are going to run realistic settings not ones that allow you to spot or view dogfights from 15-20km out.
  11. Yep, messed me up having to go back and change it to original setting.
  12. Jesus ... cut them a break. Do you guys really want 3rd parties delaying products until they are finished or getting you a flyable plane with most features? They probably pushed this out for the holidays knowing its missing some stuff. So far I'm pretty pleased and congratulate Razbam for their work so far.
  13. Military craft only for me and I won't buy trainers either. I would purchase something like a C-130 or military transports but a 747 or even single engine civilian props hold no interest at all. TBH the flight model would be the main thing that would even bring other sim pilots here because other features are better presented elsewhere. PLENTY of military craft out there to develop ... hey I would buy a FW189 if your looking at something to make to enjoy the upcoming maps.
  14. D-5/G-2 are pretty much the same aircraft. One is a dive bomber and one is a ground attack craft. The G-2 will probably be extremely difficult to use if everything is modeled correctly when attacking tanks.
  15. +1 but add the F15 also
  16. Good luck with the Stuka. I think you choose the perfect version because the transition from D-5 to G-2 shouldn't be to intensive. Let me know if you need an extra tester for that baby! :pilotfly:
  17. I loved to give this module a try since it gets such high praise.
  18. It would help fill out my roster so why not. Thanks for the give away.
  19. Do they charge up front or when they ship? If I order now I may get them in March ...
  20. Wouldn't be surprised to see the P-47 before any Normandy map ... it was in front of the Spitfire until a few months ago.
  21. We'd probably would of seen a pre-release notice if it was coming this year. 2016 will be a good year for WWII releases hopefully.
  22. Mi-8 would be nice.
  23. We'll be able to do this over the Nevada map one day.
  24. Yeah I hated the ability to see contacts from 50km away and they were bigger than when the LOD changed for close range. Hopefully the servers will get the ability to limit or ban that crap. TBH the best spotting addition was the MOD they used on the European server.
