That is really so far from the truth that it would be hard to make it sound worse. While BoS has it's problems and those problems are being addressed, it is not as nearly as bad as you make it out to be. I fly both sides and I get kills on both sides. It doesn't take more to shoot down Russians and tbh, the Russian planes are slower than the Germans, as they should be.

Serious question, have you flown the Mig21? That's so not true. I know plenty of people flying it that use it just fine against modern aircraft and you know when you're locked and fired on and where its coming from. It just requires more SA than the FC aircraft. It must've been a miracle that guys flying those planes back in the day ever survived because they couldn't learn anything. lol

I'm guessing if it made people sick we'd have heard about it by now.

If you aren't getting the Warthog then Saitek is the only other way to go since you don't want to spend much. IF you get a stick that doesn't have enough buttons and 4 ways it's going to be a nightmare to set up. TBH, using anything but the Warthog with the A10 kind of sucks given what the stick is capable of.

So I take it that the server is kind of finished?

No you won't, but if you ask your mom she may probably give you the rest of the money. :)

You may want to lay off the sugar.

I could be wrong but it doesn't seem like it's been fixed.

There are a few Mig21 vs F5 servers running. I wouldn't say anything with that matchup is a "level playing field" given the huge advantage the F5 has with it's radar. They can scan out to 40 miles vs 30 km, look up and down as well as side to side.

Why did you need to use an adjusted mission. You can climb up there, land and get back down just fine if you fly it the way it tells you?

Your poll is kind of messed up. The AC sits on the right in a helicopter. It's not the same as fixed wing.

As it is now, if you load gunners and rockets you have to go over EGT limitations to fly and especially hover the Huey. Those EGT limitations and the associated engine damage isn't modeled so you can fly the Huey however you want without any consequence. If/when the limitations are added you wouldn't be able to load anything on the Huey and fly without burning up the engine. Two things need to be fixed: One- The EGT limitations being exceeded should damage the engine. Two- The EGT is too high given the amount of engine power output and needs to be addressed. The way it is now, as far as the engine power is concerned, you can fly with the collective as high as you want without damaging anything. It's very unrealistic. I see people loading up all 4 gatlings. I know for a fact that they have to fly WELL over EGT limits to not only get off the ground and hover, but in normal flight. It's just too "gamey" the way it's currently modeled.

Well, to be fair, just because it's an airliner doesn't mean its meant to be flown on autopilot all the time. I've flown many trips by hand.

Myself as well as many others are using Win 10 with no problems. You may want to head to the correct subforums for some better help. Check the DCS World section.

Now you're talking about an F15E with modern radar, not an F15C with an older radar as should be in DCS. Is this older model F15C supposed to be modeled with a modern radar or what should be correct given the aircraft?

Not with the APG63 v1 that should be what this F15 is using. It's a Doppler radar that should have ground clutter that would cover helis flying NOE. The way things are you can see the helicopter sitting on the ground as long as the engines are on like they are at 10k. The radars, especially the limitations are not represented well in this sim.

OR you could fly it the way it's supposed to be flown and not like a war thunder plane? :) :thumbup::music_whistling:

Why would I do something like that? It isn't within parameters or any real specific setting for a specific phase of flight so it's unrealistic that I'd ever do that. I'm not sure why you'd think someone that knew how to fly would ever use that setting.

I'd love for that to be what is coming for round 9.

Yeah, but, for example, what scenario can you think of would mysteriously lose all radar guided missiles? lol They've been based on eras which is realistic and that's what he's been talking about and it's also been what's drawn the crowd.

Another gamer thing, flaps in combat. That was also a rare thing in WW2. Flaps slow you down and getting speed back isn't that easy in a fight. Using flaps in combat is a computer flight sim thing and isn't necessarily correct.

First of all, don't fly alone. That's your biggest problem. Secondly, because these servers are so dead as compared to say IL2 BoS, people can and do get away with flying low. If there are ever a decent amount of people in a server then altitude is life. Most of your concerns come down to there not being very many people flying in a WWII server. Someone mentioned using WEP always...This is another DCS gamer thing that isn't necessary. I've yet to ever need WEP in the P51. There has rarely been a time that I needed to go above 2800 rpm and 50" MP. You do realize what happens if you use WEP irl? Pilots weren't using it all the time and it was a rare occasion that it was used so it really shouldn't be any different in here unless you aren't really sure how you should be flying the plane.

I don't know how often you are flying in the round when it's actually up but what I'm seeing as a whole are that those that don't fly much are all for this "goofy" heaters/guns only setup while those of us that are pretty much on daily for it are against it and want more reality and less "gamey". Sorry for the huge sentence. lol

That's what I see...it's going from realistic to gaming real fast. The game "call of duty" servers are the ones I stay away from and now it feels like we're falling into that hole.

Goofy is NOT the reason I like this particular server. 104th or Open Conflict would fit that. This was a nice server that made people work together with realistic weapons/loadouts and aircraft. Now, IMO, it just turned into someone's fantasy idea of a guns only server.
