Final score will be the one from AAR once claiming period for contestants is over.

People are usually HOTAS anyways and workload kept to a strict minimum when things get hairy. Advanced avionics may even help with more advanced features and capabilities sometimes. @Turbo: thanks mate, it seems I wasnt aware Hook allowed it( I think because refueling rearming the Viggen has not been fully tested yet) I will lift those fouls asap.

AAR for GM3 is out! http://sa-sim.com/gm3-after-action-report/ Claiming will run for 2 days after which, scores will stand and rankings will update. Thanks.

It's a DCS Rankings not FC3. You can check our Past Events Page, you'll see many DCS modules have already been featured. http://sa-sim.com/dcs-past-battles/ Moreover, SA Rankings is always based on last 12 months so a lot of 'old' FC-based events are now irrelevant rankings wise. Besides, I dont personally believe that the box makes the pilot, rather the other way around. A good stick will be good, FC level or DCS level, we try to reward pilot proficiency in A2A and A2G not switch-flipping and button-pressing skills :p and we are testing that through a variety of DCS modules anways.

Track IR, hardcore vs simplified systems...etc may affect things a bit but that, alone, won't win competitions. No issues though , wording depends on mindset, you have the right to dislike how it comes across but this is how we see competition in DCS and would like to foster it. Thanks for your feedback.

No one said ALL top players are ranked by SA, of course there must be good sticks out there that did not take part in SA events, hence they don't feature there. However, SA rankings has nothing to do with nepotism as this is the word that had been brought up initially. We don't rank players based on anything but their PvP performances. And no, attendance is not the way to go, you can attend as many SA sanctioned events as you want, if you don't score high enough, you won't earn a single SA point. This is no MVP community voting or AI shooting contest, this is white knuckle PvP where only proficiency, skills and experience can set you apart. If there are peeps who think they are good PvP players and dislike the fact that they don't feature on the rankings, please, you are welcome to participate in any of our events to try to smash Stuge in a Top Gun tourney or beat the consistency of those who feature in the Hall of Fame. We love competition and everytime we discover a new talent, it makes things so much better. Most of our events are open to the public but some will be reserved for top ranked players, this is the least we can do to reward those competitors who excelled consistently. This is no private league though and we have had plenty of events where registration was open to all and ran first come first serve. Esporting in DCS is still at its very early stages and people are not used yet to competition but things are happening and moving in the right direction.

Nice breakdown, Stuge! As expected, the number one reason has always been the bad guy you fail to see (SA). Still feeling rekt but I'm gonna have to get my hands on that ACMI to produce the AAR, update the rankings...etc

Yes, replay will be uploaded to Hooks YT channel. Very much considered for R4.

Betting has ended. Thanks everyone! Im gonna need some time to analyse all the entries and shall revert back to you guys with the results asap!
