Yes I am on 16 too, must get 32 ASAP.. this sim will require 32 as minimum soon.

I had 40 also, then I turned off MSAA 2x and changed to NVIDIA control panel FXAA ... it jumped to 60-70

I got bf109 for dogfight, is anton good enough for bomber intercept missions and bombing? I would like to get Anton over Mustang (not a great fan) but only if it can bomb as well as mustang?

That instant flight has tons of aircraft, are you sure it's not a RAM issue? There are roughly 50+ aircraft on that Instant flight, few Bomber groups etc..

True, and still you see people comparing DCS with IL2 /facepalm Video game is a video game, Simulator is a simulator

I am having problem damaging planes with 30 cal weapon (miss a lot) and I get a lot of "hits" with nose mounted 13 cal weapon but no kill. Is there any tutorial on how to properly use weapons on K-4? Thank you

F-16 is an investment, miss tons of stuff, if you wanna play now then it's Harrier

Welcome :)

NOTE: ALL OF THIS HAVE BEEN PROBABLY SAID X TIMES, BUT THIS IS JUST A MY VIEW I've made an map called: Battle for Caen where Third Reich is trying to stop Allies progress in south eastern part of the city, Americans are preparing an attack with P-51 bombers to weaken defenses, however I was tasked with job to protect the bombers from axis interceptors and in case of death to control French tank division with combined arms module, bunch of triggers, bunch of respawns. So, I spent hours playing basically... What have I noticed: 1. Many Big Aircraft are missing like He-111, this one is a MUST, fully modeled. 2. Many assets don't have destruction model or are overpowered 3. New Assets that came with recent update look beautiful 4. Dogfights are simple but still satisfying, easier than Sabre - Mig Korea/Cold War duels, AI tends to repeat itself a lot. 5. Normandy Map is beautiful, territory covered is just perfect 6. Tiger II tank is OP and Allies have basically nothing to respond to that beast except Bombing 7. A-20 isn't modeled and too powerful, I hit him 20 times with Spitfire and he survived like it's nothing 8. WW2 Fighter Modules are all OK, haven't noticed anything unusual in their mutual engagement. Conclusion I believe it's worth buying WW2 modules, especially now with discounts for the sake of Dogfights and powerful Mission Editor that will allow you to recreate tons of WW2 Western Front Battles. Negative is the fact that TONS of Bomber and Transport type of Aircraft are missing, they are really important for WW2 theatre. The module I've found amazing is: Spitfire, P-51 Mustang (Acts like F/A, got bombs and rockets).

If you like choppers Mi-8 If you like Cold War Jets = MIG 21

Do Late Activation units that appear on certain Trigger use RAM from the start? I am asking cause I want to create large battlefield, and I want to optimize my map for performance and 16 GB RAM if possible.

Haven't read any manual or anything yet, I am curious, can those rockets kill Tigers and Tiger IIs If yes than it's worth it I believe..... How does dora fares against Spitfire and P51

Just like we are getting carrier full of crew that seems much more alive, could we get WWII Airfield filled with High quality A.I. crews, planes Features like: *Service Crews *Airfield operators *Briefing rooms *Bars etc..etc.. I am saying because assets and features from SuperCarrier could be re-used in this module like people etc.. What do you guys think?

There is nothing worse than flying fake FM, it's like being cheated. If anyone enjoys that, then let's fly flying saucers with unlimited g, unlimited power.. fun eh

5 x Ka-50 recommendations, Ka-50 it is :) Thank you guys

I've spent entire day testing all modules (planes and choppers) with a goal to buy something for myself with a budget of $100-$120 max, I was like a kid in a candy store, for a long time flight simmer there is no BAD aircraft/chopper there are only those I prefer more over others. First of all I would like to thank Eagle Dynamics for this awesome new approach to old and new customers alike. In the past, I was always in a difficult position to buy a module because YouTube wasn't enough, you have to feel it with your own joystick before making a decision. I haven't rushed my decision, I have confirmed 3 buys with 4th being in the air which is why I am creating a thread to ask a community to help me decide. Out of all modules I tested considering that I already have: (Combined Arms, Mig-15, Mig-21, A10C, FC3, F/A-18C, F-16C Viper, Persian Gulf & Nevada NTTR Map) I have decided to buy: 1. DCS: Mi-8MTV2 Magnificent Eight by Belsimtek (25$) Reason: Since I was a child I had a field 100 meters away from my home, and a nice green Mi-8 Transport Chopper used to land every now and then, as a 9 yr kid that was something amazing to see and experience, so this buy is basically my first chopper buy and complexity is something I love a lot, it looks complex, tons of switches, beautiful. 2. DCS: C-101 Aviojet by AvioDev (30$) Reason: Sometimes I just want to enjoy flying around and this tiny jet won me over L-39. I don't think that L-39 is a bad module by any mean, it's just I prefer this one to be with western avionics since I am quite tired of Russians one by playing Mig-15 and Mig-21 a lot. Also it seems it has more weapons to choose from and flight model and behavior is excellent. I've heard that this module had problems in the past, but from what I have seen today it's quite nice. 3. DCS: F-5E Tiger II by Belsimtek (30$) Reason: I love my Mig-21. This module is basically a western counterpart to Mig-21 and it has a drag chute. I love drag chutes, I love fast landings, also just like Mig-21 it has a personality, so for Mig-21 fans this is an awesome western pick so it's done. Help me pick 4th among those from Considering list, I am interested in quality of module and why would it be a good pick for my already established collection: (listed by no particular order) 1. DCS: Bf 109 K-4 Kurfurst 2. DCS: Fw 190 D-9 Dora 3. Ka 50 4. P-51D 5. SA342 6. Spitfire Do I need WW2 figher and why? or should I expand on Choppers? Help me pick one more among these 6 Why I didn't considered others: NOTE: This are not bad modules, they just didn't fit into budget or I have similar module already: Mig-19 (skipped, already have 15 and 21 and I played them a lot, so a 21 and 15 hybrid is no go for me, module is great, so for someone who wants a better version of mig-15 great pick) F-86F Sabre (awesome module, it made no sense to me to get it since I own Mig-15 and I need more diverse spectrum of modules, played with it, sad I can not keep it, maybe later) FW190 A-8 (Did not get into consideration list, nothing wrong with module, I don't like the cockpit, personal preferences) I-16 (I don't see this plane comparable with other WW2 planes, it's old late WW1 plane I think, can't use it anywhere I am afraid, but maybe I am wrong, correct me if I am) JF-17 (I've never heard for this fighter plane, looks interesting, expensive for me) M2000 (didn't like it, cockpit looks too simple for my taste) Huey (Not fan of Huey, I know it's american favorite, maybe one day who knows) F14B (expensive, not fan of the jet, later most likely) Yak 52 (I have no problems with civilian aviation coming from FS and XPLANE series, but this one is too simple for my taste and experience, I suggest it to new players who are still learning basics of flying, and it's cheap)

I have the same issue, started happening after last update, unrelated to your drivers etc..

Also you can't try full fidelity module in 2 days except maybe flight model. It takes at least few days to learn basics etc..

my wallet is ready

I always break things at 350, don't know about you :D I've read that at it's safer to go faster if you don't want to break things :D

What about 1 month trial, is it for steam users? Also 50% sale (next month) is it also for steam users? :noexpression::noexpression:

I agree, I am confused both about discounts and free trial, ED clarify please.

What do you say? Cool, Fine, Could be better? Where can I improve?

Hornet I haven't tried Tomcat, but the fact you have to manage Jester or second crew member is too much for me :) Also I struggle in handling analogue needles everywhere so ... Hornet is it!

I just did 10 seconds refuel without HOTAS, rather using joystick two buttons for trust, it's brutal difficulty. TRY IT. I tried with F18
