Helldivers 2, just didn't wanted to use full name because of obvious reasons, but yeah now i will change the rest, the gpu was just a test. i5 4690K is useless these days unless you playing some moba games. But years ago it was alright now DCS is really processor heavy.

Changed today my precious gtx 970 to rtx 4060. Before change I checked fps in my testing spot on airfield in Batumi, with same settings ect and from 41 FPS it went to more than 200FPS it didn't want to get higher even though card was only around 85% there was some sort of a cap (300FPS set in settings). Well I still have i5 4690K and 16GB ram so im only able to fly solo otherwise processor load goes to 100% and stuttering appears. Anyway after 9 years of using gtx 970 I think that was the best graphics card I ever owned, I could still play many good looking games on almost max settings without MSAA. Had to change it to play H2 but not much changed since H2 is really processor heavy. About DLSS in DCS I didn't liked it, its blurry/smudging even on quality settings. 60FPS solo is all I need yet Marianas map is still unplayable for me.

General answer to this and all other questions about long time to make a product in our games/simulators world is that people are unreliable and lazy including myself, we easily burn out working long hours on the same project. I have seen it here of the forum on many occasions as well with my friends who were working in game industry or even other professions. No updates/progress reports on given plane because "soup was too salty" "dev got sick" "we lost a programmer" "im on vacation" "engine in our p-40 have strange vibrations lol" The solution to all this is AI who will make 3d model of a plane calculate flight model and everything else, faster and cheaper.

After seeing this happy face in your manual it cannot be unseen...

About Mig-29 there is other question, will I be able to fly booth multiplayer server so: full sim Mig-29 vs FC3 Style Mig-29, who will have more advantage? Me with simplified controls or the person with full fidelity? Will I be banned from all servers because I'm casual player?

Nice but 2021 Beyond video is still on the top of my list because of new clouds and music that fits it perfectly in my opinion, and the way that AH64 was shown at the end. With every year its gonna be harder and harder to surprise us with new stuff, but on the other end if they would announce Abrams tank simulator, or WW2 U-Boot sim or F22 at the end of the video then yes i would be surprised.

Maybe not from DCS but this is some incredible real WW2 footage, 4k ai enhanced, good sound design, consider watching all shorts videos also.

Last time we got any screenshot from DC it was in 2020, maybe we could get a glimpse of how it look right now? Maybe just a screenshot of the dynamic campaign interface?

Mi-8 multicrew just like that, without a warning, that's huge.

I was playing this a lot and guess what? I was driving it with the joystick I had assist turned on and was turning the steering wheel with the twist (rudder) on the stick. And i was doing full races on daytona and talladega, because driving in circles were calming, and that v8 roar mmm... delicious back then.

if this plane will not have damage model like ED warbirds, La-7 should be banned from multiplayer servers because of gameplay/realism/balance perspective Imagine other plane is shooting La-7 with penetrating bullets but La-7 lacks penetrating mechanics means its pointless and take damage like a tank

gained 3 fps in single player mission (from 51 to 54fps) only my aircraft parked in Batumi, same rendering spot fov, settings ect. Step in good direction. My setup i5 4690+gtx 970 16g ram With next patch i expect around 10 fps boost and with the next one another 10 fps. Soon i will be able to sell my 970 and went back to gtx 660 that i had few years ago.

As we know rwr sounds are going to be made by Heatblur for F-4 and F-16 Handoff mode so this video might get helpful. in this video you can hear all kinds of sounds and on 12:40 they even simulate sa-3 sound for rwr cos they have this radar simulator (use headphones)

F-16 pilots probably have to know these prf sounds by heart, so I'm sure there's a library of recordings from which they can learn from, its was probably not easy to put them against every sam radar. Maybe some pilot could smuggle this thing out :]

If I would be doing this as hobby after my main work why not, maybe they just like old tech and need to fulfill the dreams, they have already released complex digital jet. But as a company never, we have Mig-21 already, people are eager for newer stuff. Su-30 would sell 1000x better.

I've got an idea, why to separate community on two products, make development. and fixing bugs longer by that. If Flamming Cliffs is owned by Ubisoft then release MAC for DCS with 4 flyable jet planes without clickable cockpits aka Flamming Cliffs 3. Jets like F-22, F-35 vs SU-57, SU-35 I'm sure that a lot of people would buy it, look at Growling Sidewinder videos sort by popularity, most popular are F-22 and SU-57 you don't need to be an Einstein to know that it would sell very well. I know that we have mods but most important thing like flight model is off so whats the point of flying them?

Probably canceled, looking at what kinds of planes WT got now, and in near future will have all modern jets including F-22, F-35, SU-35, SU-57. MAC would be a good thing if the models of those planes be available in booth products DCS as AI and in MAC for flying without grinding months to get them.

that could be called cheating, imagine if one guy trying to hide in the clouds and you can still see him because you have no clouds or in different location

I think its here since Lock On, and funny i was talking about this bug yesterday with a friend who works on Unreal 5, and he told me that on U5 its just rendering order, easy and quick fix. But DCS engine is... you know... probably a spaghetti of code. Not only that but clods shimmering ect. I told him also how long this bug is here and he didn't said anything good about developers.

I post this video wherever i can so they will know what were talking about, but i think they know about it, just like they know about heatblur affecting hud but they can't fix it since 2003 so its like almost 20 years of graphical bug that cant be fixed. so we need probably another 30 years to fix dancing clouds. That's not funny that's scary actually...

Dancing clouds still not fixed after last patch, probably another unfixable thing like heatblur from engines affecting hud. The clouds move mostly on base layer, and only on normal fov, when you zoom in problems dissapears. Heres a video how does it look like.

Just to say i have around 5fps performance boost in 2d, same settings like in 2.7 but distant clouds on ultra still have a lot of shimmer and strange rendering bugs like pixelization. For me this update is nothing special sadly but more fps is always a good sign.

Problem still not fixed, today i was trying to kill some B-17 but its impossible when they teleport in front of you. I would like to also posses that power of teleportation. In picture below you can clearly see how much they changed direction just in front of my nose that's ridiculous. This is single player, i have made simple bombing mission but bombers ale shifting aka drifting all over the place.

It shouldn't even be allowed to have damage model that stands out of other ww2 warbirds. Again I have VEAO vibes when ED allowed two diffrend flights models for one plane on the same server. I-16 is funny but it sill uses old smoke effects for leaks ect. Anyway La-7 great plane i was flying it a lot in 1946 old sim. I think we need a Berlin map for La.

Yup i think they will release DCS 3.0 with Vulcan, ATC, Dynamic Campaign, Dynamic Weather, Advanced AI But when this will happen?
