  1. "For four days straight, we went out and smoked them." Chuck Magill on killing the Eagles at Tyndall who underestimated the F/A-18A.
  2. "[In a Hornet], I won 50% of the fights against the F-16...I never lost a 1v1 against the F-15." Seriously, Steve's 10 Percent True podcast is an absolute treasure trove of fighter aviation conversations.
  3. "It's the way he posts... Ice cold, no mistakes."
  4. It will not... much later addition.
  5. Haha... funny one, Metzger. Indeed... DC was the most significant footage in that video, I'd say.
  6. Indeed. And on Fat Amy, I suppose it's perfectly feasible that a foreign-NATO customer of the 35A has contracted ED's commercial side to do some sort of MilSim as USAF did with the A10C. That would certainly open the door wider for them to consider an off the shelf civilian product. It will be interesting for sure... BUT, the Albino Charlie!
  7. SO pleased to see the visible progress on the Dynamic Campaign front! Well done, ED Team!

    Thank You!

    This airframe is what drew me to Lomac in 2003. Well played.
  9. Tholozor's method above is very similar to what I do (choose 'night', then adjust gain and contrast) and I get perfectly visible results... the only real bummer is that most of the maps don't display beyond the 10 nm scale yet.
  10. Yeah, I'm kind of wishing I'd saved my $60 and waited for Iraq, but I'm considering that cash a donation to ED for the 1000s of hours of fun they've provided me over the past years after I've only purchased a minimal number of DLCs compared to many in the community. That said, anyone want to donate DCS: Iraq to me for Christmas? I'm sure Afghanistan will get the love soon...
  11. I've copy-pasted the carrier templates with aircraft multiple times, over different maps (ie - Caucasus to Syria). Sometimes it takes a few seconds to paste. Additionally, try clicking the selection tool box on the left menu bar on the map you want to paste to before you ctr-v the carrier group.
  12. Trying to understand the purpose of your screenshot here as you don't have any members displaying on the page at all...so, of course, no data.
  13. HEAR, HEAR!!! I'm thankful for the core performance enhancements that have rendered the world more beautiful than ever and smooth as butter on my system. And remaining "Cloud-Free."
  14. I'd say, per Nessuno's post above, that ED's only real 'problem' is that they're too ambitious. They get criticized with comparisons to FBMS, 3rd Party Module aircraft, etc... when they are taking on 25 times more work and complexity with full-fidelity, advanced (and immensely popular) airframes, maps, campaigns...etc. And then they have the core game itself. They will never win. I just hope they don't get discouraged. I for one just loaded up a rainy day mission on the Supercarrier in the Hornet, with Tomcats and other jets crowding the deck... and I had absolutely no frame drops or hiccups in 2D. A year ago, with the same mission and setup, my FPS would've dropped into the teens when looking at the deck Island, and that with even lower settings than I'm currently running. They just slowly get this sim better and better. But, yes...they are WAY too ambitious. And they are still the best overall air combat sim in town...bar none.
  15. Precisely my point.
  16. Mover: A higher-Viper-than-Hornet-hour driver: "I prefer the Viper..." Peachez: A higher-Hornet-than-Viper-hour driver: "I prefer the Hornet..."
  17. "Big-Engined" Legacy over the Super-Hornet in raw performance.... Be sure and listen all the way to 1:57:24.
