That would be in July if im lucky to get it. Sure I can post my impression if I remember this conversation:p. From what I heard the pancake lenses on BSB2 is on par with the quest 3, so the lenses should be quite good, unless the reviewers are lying..

How?:p. Unless I buy it, I cant try it.. But that said, even if quest 3 was the best in the world and I got It for free I would not want it. Not to keen on Zuckerberg selling the data he gathers while im wearing it:p

I already bought BSB2, and simply wanted to know if I get clearer picture and less shimmering and if things look better at distant scenery than Reverb G2. I dont need eyetracking and resolution wise the quest 3 looks like a downgrade(on paper), and I hate zuckerbeg, so quest 3 is not an option for me.

Yes aliasing, correct. Think I misunderstood hes answer. So upscaling my reverb G2 can achive the same picture quality as the BRB2? What is the point of upgrading then:p. When i went from the samsung oddyssey+ to reverb, the clarity and shimmering got a lot better. So are you saying I could just kept the oddyssey and upscaled the res and gotten the same result? Really, then what is the point of making higher res headsets other than killing the framerates:p. Im puzzled now, maybe I should cancel my order… To add, after getting the reverb, I could not see any screendor effect anymore, so if that is the only point with higher pixel density then its useless for me because at 2160x2160 I cant really see it anymore..

From what I experienced higher resolution really helps with shimmering and from what i seen with through the lens videos, higher resolution headsets has way less shimmering and things in distance looks better. So I wonder how much better the BSB will be compared to my reverb….

How is the clarity on distant scenery and shimmer with BSB compared to reverb g2? I ordered the BSB2 to replace reverb G2, but not sure if i made a mistake and should have gone for the pimax super instead.(the weight and size looked scary).

It replaced the dcs updater tool for me, just love it. Used the updater tool to choose wether to start vr or 2d, now i dont need the extra app anymore. Also find it very convinient to be able to install/uninstall modules without starting the sim. thank you ED:)

No, dont do it…

Not as clear as this one, also it takes out the long boring travels where nothing happens and put you right into action. (Great for people that dont have to much time to play). And landing on carrier is not obligatory.. (for those who struggle). And the air refueling is scripted(still cant do it adter 13 years playing this game:p.) Im a noob in the F18 and its the first campain I actually can make progress. Higly reccomend it for noobs like me:)

Im also new to the F18 like OP and found the payware «Rising squall» campain to be very noob friendly. Like how it tells me in briefing what knowledge I need to have to play each mission.

Thanks guys, think I got it now:)

Just came back to the A10c2 after long time, I noticed the CCRP mode has changed with certain bombs. E.g the gbu12 uses symbology Im familiar with, but the gbu38 has something else that I dont understand at all. I have googled and tried to find tutorial on howto use it but cant find anything. What I dont understand is when to press weapon release. The old method was simple with that counter dropping down through the circle. But this new mode I cant wrap my head around it…

Last time I travelled with an airliner my 4 year old daughter was asking me why the plane is standing still and not moving at all, when we where in the flight levels... She could not feel the speed, so even in real life, perception of speed can be like that..

Ending with a line we are working on dedicated servers, my question was aimed at communety run server like blue flag, pheonix, agg cold war etc running on beta branch. Did i offend ED in some way? Was a legit question on why splitting the communety, again, into 2 branches. Not EDs fault but the communety refusing to use stable for some odd reason. These servers kinda represent the best of mp has to offer in DCS, its a shame to hide them for new users coming into DCS and that may never frquent the forums to realise what it has to offer.

Myself jumped straight into mp when i got into dcs, had never flown a flightsim in my life. If pheonix server wasnt around at that time with dcent population, i would leave the game, took me atleast a year to register on the forum. Many people coming into this from steam would come to a game with almost no life in mp, they would just think, ah this game isnt that popular,,,... this mp beta trend can ruin the influx of new people too the game. Even me, a seasoned mp dcs player, it took me a week to find out what was going on, could not wrap my head around it, after a holiday, coming back and not finding a server too play on. Was just lucky to stumble upon a thread in the bugs forum.... And even if its a stable beta, many people will refuse to run somthing with beta in its name, because it implies its gonna be some unstable shit... and going back and forth beetwen stable sounds very inconvinient... This kinda makes me wanna drop mp for a while to dive into sp, until the good servers decide too go back to stable..

What on earth was the big mp communetus thinking when deciding to only host on the beta branch.. Tought the days of having 2 installs was supposed to stop after the merge, now the mp communety decide to split the commeunety again. Wtf... what about new players joining, log in and see that this game is dead in mp decide to just leave it, without knowing that the old eleitist is hiding in a beta branch.. And what about when the beta breaks somthing and we all will be in singleplayer for a week waiting for a fix... Am I alone in feeling this is kinda stupid

All DCS assets should be for free and included for server hosters to use as they like, this Asset DLC thing is gonna mess up MP and isnt gonna help it grow. Now that ED has excluded me from ww2, how do i go about getting a refund for my ww2 planes? Is it possible, as my intrest in DCS ww2 died with todays news...

That would be nice, im all in for realism

Oh really, yeah sure you can fly whatever you want, but it is afterall a ww2 map with buildings, atlantic wall and airport from that era, not a modern version of normandy, so it is a ww2 theater even if one tries to imagine it to be somthing else.... if it was 2 maps in one on the other hand, one modern and one old version I would agree with you, but it is not.. The name Normandy 1944 says it all....

I have not asked for everything for "free", but Ii was under the assumtion when i buy a ww2 map It would include all units that is needed to simulate the theater, what else would i need a ww2 map for... 40 bucks for it all I think would be fair and they should not be separate products wich will only make poeple angry and can cause alot of confusion. Having a little bit less steeper price to buy into DCS ww2 i would tink would attract more people, hence more money too ED even if they sell things a little cheaper. I know they have to earn money and stuff, but they sell planes and maps, that should be enough. Imagine if IL 2 started taking money for the assets, would anyone buy into that sim at all, im sure DCS fanboys (me excluded) have no problem with it, im more worried about the potential other customers coming in from the other ww2 sims...

Ok, that list was not in the newsletter i read, dunno where this came from but ok, still not complete ww2.. But how long will it take before we get the rest for free? Knowing how slow DCS development is maybe 5 too seven years before we will get all those assets and still its not a complete ww2 scenario, maybe it was all units that was fighting over normandy, dunno, but what is next, when we get a new ww2 theater, we wil have too buy new assets that fit for the new one too? Anyway, I hate the idea off paying for assets, and I think this is gonna hurt ED in the long run, I can imagine that if someone playing IL2 bos/clod that maybe was intrested in DCS WW2 before is gonna be put off by this great news. Also, is this gonna be the norm for every theater we buy from now on? Nah my intrest in DCS WW2 just went from exited to dissapointed, im gonna stay with IL 2 for now and just play modern warfare for free in the Georgia theater(or maybe when 2.5 comes out we have to pay for the improved terrain, assets in that map too)

Im looking at the world weekend news, and it has only one plane listed, B17g bomber. Unlesss there is a list somehwere else i missed i cant see it, though the newsletter mentions additional assets created will be given for free too those thta own the asset pack im not sure i can wait 7 years before they are included... If im gonna pay for the asset(wich im not) atleast i would expect the theater to be complete before paying anything..

Wtf, didn't see this one coming. Wont buy into this now, i simply refuse too buy something that should have been included with the ww2 map. And the list of units in that pack isn't even a complete set of units from ww2. Just one AI plane? I dont like the direction this is going at all:(...

I disagree, i think having the possibility to switch teams anytime is gonna do alot for balancing. A few years back i played alot of Rise of flight, and everytime it started getting unbalanced on a server someone in the chat wrote "2 versus 15, really guys" , then someone else replied, "oh shit, didnt notice, ill switch side" and in 1 minute the server was balanced. The communety was great at that, even people that hated flying british planes switched from german just to make it fun for everyone. It was great. Im sure the same could happen here as these simmers useally are a nice bunch of people and everyone wants to have fun. What fun is there really in being on a team of fifteen against one guy on the other side? For me that is boring, not having any targets. Personally i picked up the habit from ROF, when i enter servers i always pick the underdog just to try an even the odds+ its always nice to have somthing to shoot at instead of competing with 20 other players who is the first to shoot down that 1 guy on the other team:p. It's a pity i cant do this on blue flag server:( I started playing on these server a few months ago and for me it always have been pretty unbalanced, mostly i expirience that my team either has 3 versus 20 or im at a team with 20 against 3, not fun at all.... think i only had one session where it was halfway decent balanced. I just like to add, even if it looks like im always bithcing and complaining about things, its just because i love the game too much and i kinda get to emmotional about it and then it just go crazy from there and sometimes i end up in flamewars just because my passion for the game/server/weather:p whatever is too much. Never take me seriously, im crazy, lol

Can we have some weather please? Kinda boring always flying with unrealisticly good weather, everyone always seem too want realism in this server aka no kill messages etc, but when something more than a slight breeze gets added everyone goes nuts and complain, why?? Would have been cool to have what they have on the DCS-nl server, realtime weather. If that server was PVP i would have just flown there, but it's coop wich is kinda boring for me. But i sometimes just go there to have some crosswind landings and generally get my weather "fix". While im at bitching about realism, why is simple radio set to the most unrealistic settings?
