I own Blackshark1 but it's not currently installed. I just purchased the patch to go along with it. My question is: Do I download the original and the patch or should I just download the Blackshark 2 full install? Does it matter? i have both keys.

Exactly. They are the same platform, so upgrading 10 games would scale much better. Depending on how well the work scales will determine the amount of effort required and therefore the cost. So I think as more modules come out the cost for shared content will have room to drop. I mean seriously it's a $50 expansion every year and $15 a month to play warcraft!

Do you really wanna pay 180 bucks plus the cost of a new module when or if ED reaches a 10th plane that they model? Think of it another way - how much would it cost in terms of development resource to simultaneously maintain 10 games? Depending on the answer you'll have your price.

Wow that cockpit looks amazing!

Wait on screenshots guys!

Just purchased BS2 thx ED! Can't wait for the nevada patch also!

I just turn get the APU up and running, turn the pumps on and then spool up one engine at a time. When do I need to touch the bleed air in a ramp start???

I'm excited about this: • Brightness/contrast effect for sensors (TGP and Maverick) has been made much more realistic looking. I'm all for improving the BHOT/WHOT of the TGP. Any chance of a sneak preview?

Looks awesome. I will buy it for sure. Shame I didn't get the beta, I played BlackShark and then got A-10C after it was released. I'm also keen for DLC: Afghanistan.

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has noticed that after ALT Tabbing the game seems to gain an HDR effect. At least that's what I think it is. Anyone else have this? I'll load a couple of screenshots if needed.

Differential braking works fine, I use it heaps.

I pull up in formation and trim correctly once i've matched his speed. Sometimes it's 185, sometimes it's faster, sometimes it's slower. I don't think theres a way to know for sure or ask the tanker.

I hope that the next aircraft is something which compliments the A-10C well such as a SEAD capable aircraft or a jet that provides fighter cover for A-10s. With that in mind I'd be happy with any variant of the F-16, F-15 or even the F-18. I'm also really looking forward to some un-conventional warfare in other theatres like Afghanistan or Libya if it ever gets off the ground. It would be great supporting troops with a JTAC marking smoke etc the desert, although the risk of being shot down is much less than fighting Russia.

In a few weeks I should have my TM Warthog! Then I can ditch my X-52 with it's 3 hats!

You might want to have a search for X65 profiles or configuration files for an idea on how people set theirs up.

Hi guys, One thing that has kind of puzzled me since starting this game is the debrief screen. How do I tell if a mission is a success or a failure? I see there is a score but I recently did a mission where I rescued a downed pilot (CSAR) and got a low score of 42 when I rescued the pilot and no helicopters were shot down. I also got a score of 92 when a helicopter was shot down by a T-72 AP round while I was rolling in to gun it. (grr!). Is there any way to see easily the success/failure criteria and how you did? Or is it just a matter or looking at the events and interpreting whether you succeeded? (the mission didn't say failed if the pilot was killed but would fail if the helicopters were shot down).

I made a mission with a range of SA-10 units 100 miles away from me. I'm not really familiar with the model numbers but I think this included a launcher, a command unit, a search radar and a tracking radar. I flew in at 25,000ft until the RWR receiver picked up a CS warning. I then dove to about 100ft and used terrain masking until I was 5.5 miles away. Then I popped up and launched a maverick on the launcher. It seemed too easy though. I think I might have not put the units in correctly though - how do I make sure that the radars and launchers are connected and talking to each other?

Having the iPad up for reference is quite handy. I usually have dcswiki open so I can search for frequencies or something if my CICU gets blown up.

I don't have a throttle that has dual control. I have the TM Warthog on order though! I did hear this, does it yaw the aircraft when you increase one engine slightly?

I thought the launch warning came from the MWS which uses IR to detect the plume.

Nevermind it finally worked! The site keeps dropping in and out. It might be me though.

I might setup a quick mission with one of these and see how long I last. Do these things actually run out of missiles in the simulator?

Okay, time to call in a few F-35s.

What's the SA-10 range like? Can you hit them with a maverick at stand off range and quickly dive behind some ground masking?
