Ah. I see now. Thanks for the explanation. Edit: would you be opposed to someone that wants to listen but not fly? I would like to get a feel for air to air chatter without being distracted with trying not to get shot down.

I have a feeling there is an alternative motive here otherwise it's simpler to just lower the slot count. If teamspeak is being used as a tool to lower the number of users then I see a serious problem.

And does any of that shared information include the Litening II ATP? If not you might as well be talking about a speedboat when describing a motorcycle race. The thing I know is that I spend a lot of time lurking on these forums. I've read a lot of advice and technical data from various members and I know which ones are right most of the time.

I'm kind of hoping for a MBT since I feel that would really bring in a larger crowd. But I wouldn't mind the Tunguska either although that's coming from a flight simmer's perspective. Someone who has never played DCS before may not be as interested in it. Whatever ED chooses will be awesome for us anyway.

May want to check your bindings. Double check that there are no conflicts with any of the settings.

A guy with 7 total posts comes in and starts bashing "Americans". Yup, just a normal day on the forums lol. But honestly, I learn a lot from the guys that come in and offer advise or corrections to other member's posts.

I figured increased range too, but I thought it was more a limitation of the propellant that limited it's range, not the amount of wire we could stuff inside a case?

Development should take place if the advantages outweigh the development and operational costs and the advantages it brings, which brings me to my question. What was wrong with the current TOW missile and what advantages does this have over it?

Not necessarily an Internet issue. I was having issues with my frames freezing in both SP and MP, but more often in MP. Everybody kept telling me it was my Internet connection. Turns out I was getting high response times from DCS reading from my TEMP folder and pagefile at the same time. Moving one to another hard drive fixed my issue even though both were initially on an SSD. Samsung 840 Pro, 256 GB with 8 GB of DDR 1333 RAM. Moving up to DDR 1600 16 GB didn't fix it but reduced the frequency at which it was happening. Edit: I should mention that everything was at stock speeds. No overclocking or memory timings were adjusted.

Ah okay thanks. I somehow missed that when I read it.

I love flying the P-51 for some easy going flying. It feels pure and it's nice to get out and cruise around for a while. The L-39 and F/A-18C are unofficial mods. You can find them on the virtual aerobatic's website.

I really enjoy all the modules except for the Mi-8. You won't go wrong with any of them though. Do you have a link?

Voted Huey, but P-51 is just as unforgiving. Both need steady hands to fly well, but planes in general are a little easier to fly for me.

Alright fine. I wasn't hitting any point in this thread. Longer than 15 km. Probably.

I wasn't actually trying to make a point. It was a simple question about game mechanics. The few times I know I was shot at by a MiG-29 was from STT with the R-77's seeker showing on my RWR just a little later.

Thanks for the info. I should have specified I was asking about in-game.

As the saying goes, no news is good news.

So this thread has been pretty entertaining so far, but I have a question. If the fighter loses lock, doesn't the missile go active and the RWR of the defending aircraft pick it up? I don't know if the RWR is sensitive enough to pick up an ARH from 50-80km.

That sounds tense. Would hate to be in that position.

Specs might help too. It's more likely something wrong with your computer if things keep failing in it.

Are you letting the full alignment to happen when you first start the plane? On the alignment page it should say 4.0 0.8 and flashing. AFAIK if you do an in air alignment it's not as accurate.

Please let this be real.

I'm not really sure why one or two trolls always have to nitpick at a screenshot of something that's a WIP. Even so, I have yet to see any game finished or otherwise that looks 100% real. To the devs: Those screenshots look amazing and my jaw literally dropped. Please keep up the hard work, we all (well the majority of us) appreciate it.

If you really want to become better I suggest reading this book to help. http://www.amazon.com/Fighter-Combat-Maneuvering-Robert-Shaw/dp/0870210599/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394478798&sr=1-1&keywords=fighter+combat+tactics+and+maneuvering I just got it and am a bit through chapter one which is just weapons. It gives a lot of good advice and some of it kind makes you face palm because you feel like you should have known it already. One of the most memorable examples from that which made me think a little goes, "You must first defeat your enemy then you can shoot." You won't become an instant ace, but it really makes you think about BVR.

Voted yes, but no rush.
