Yeah, that is true.

You have done some sort of F-Pole. That is a maneuver that the AI is currently not able to do, so humans can have a significant advantage. Basically you have bleeded out the energy of the enemy missile, because it always tries to get a lead on you, i.e. it tries to aim in front of you. So when you change your direction then the missile has to make an even harder turn, which slows it down considerably. Btw. I have noticed that you used your first load of chaff a bit too early. You could have waited a bit longer. Also you can keep your opponent locked up, as long as you do not exceed the 70° limit of your radar, i.e. you can keep your enemy at the edge of your radar. But you do not even necessarily have to approach your enemy in an almost 90° angle. You can simply approach him heads on and only break to the side when he fires his radar guided missile, in which case your RWR will warn you as long as it is turned on.

Thank you! I will try your tip using my wingman. Labels are very helpful, but they also break the immersion a bit. What I have noticed so far, is that the speed boats are hard to spot because of the rough sea surface. The water waves are caused by the wind in this mission and they are disturbing the view on those tiny boats. Without any wind it would be much easier to spot them, so ED could fix this issue easily.

Is the newly announced dynamical campaigns system going to incorporate MOOSE? Or is ED going to develop something totally different?

Not sure if someone mentioned it already, but could we get a brighter cockpit please? I mean when the sun does not shine directly on the cockpit, then some knobs are very hard to see even with cockpit lights on.

Sehr gute Wahl! Hier ein paar Anfängertipps: - Wenn dir das Manövrieren sehr schwer fällt, liegt es wahrscheinlich an einer zu geringen Geschwindigkeit oder an Außenteilen, die deine Aerodynamik deutlich verschlechtern (z.B. ausgefahrenes Fahrwerk oder eine zu große Außenlast). - Wenn man den Joystick stark heranzieht, sollte man auf den Angle of Attack Indicator achten (oben rechts im Cockpit), denn ein Strömungsabriss in der MiG-21 kann richtig übel werden. Nur manchmal kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn du durch einen Strömungsabriss deine Geschwindigkeit stark drosseln willst. - Besonders sollte man auf negative G-Beschleunigungen oder auf eine zu hohe Geschwindigkeit achten, denn beides kann den Motor abwürgen. Es ist zwar möglich, den in der Luft wieder anzuschalten, aber irgendwie klappt das nicht so häufig - zumindest bei mir nicht. - Die Bedienung des Radars kann anfangs ziemlich schwer sein, aber sobald man die Grundlagen gelernt hat, macht es irgendwie Spaß. :) Gute Idee sowas! Bisher habe ich mich immer auf AWACS verlassen, um Gegner zu finden. Bin mal gespannt, wie das mit dem RWR klappt...

You can also observe this bug in single player missions. Even if you uncheck BDA in the mission options, it will still show up in that mission as long as you have BDA set to on in your general settings.

Jo, sowas in der Art hatte ich auch vor. :thumbup: Es wird aber wohl noch dauern, bis es auf Steam verfügbar sein wird. Hoffentlich werden bis dahin einige gute Videos auf Youtube erscheinen.

Was kann man mit so einem kleinen Piepmatz überhaupt anstellen? Außer vielleicht dass sich der Feind totlacht? :lol: Kann man in DCS dauerhaft spannende Kunstflugmissionen fliegen, die so interessant sind wie etwa die Red Bull Air Race Weltmeisterschaften?

Thanks for the warning! So does this also affect missions that do not even use any aircraft that are not in the default DB?

Do not worry my friend! You can change it yourself by editing the db_countries.lua file, which you can find in ...\Country Database\Scripts\Database :smartass:

This works except for F11 and F12, since you do not have Num11 or Num12. So I have personally decided to use this change:

Usually when I press the button for the "intercomms menu" the easy communication menu will show up. But sometimes it does not work, which is very annoying when I try to use Voice Attack. In that case Voice Attack will change my camera instead of using the commuincation. I do not know what is causing this bug. I only know that this bug also appears without Voice Attack. So even when I am using my keyboard, the comms button is occasionally not accepted in DCS. Edit: Maybe it has something to do with the active window. That may be a reason why DCS might not accept keyboard inputs. I have noticed that this bug always occurs when I am returning from my desktop to DCS.

Guys, I think the second one is the Ramat David airport in Israel!! Coincidentally I have recently used google earth images to create some textures for a strategy game and one of the locations was this airport. :)

Is it possible to change the roughness of those areas on the ground, that are not part of any runway or taxiway? I do not like the fact that in DCS you can get away with it, when you miss a runway during landing and still survive without any damages. Maybe there is a Lua file that allows us to change the bumpiness of the unpaved ground or something? :bounce:

Ich habe einige Fragen bzgl. der Ankündigungen für 2019: - Wurde bereits geleakt was das für eine neue Karte sein soll, die gratis verfügbar sein wird? - Inwiefern wird Vulkan die Performance verbessern? Lohnt es sich auf Vulkan zu warten, bevor man seinen PC für DCS aufrüstet? Ich habe beispielsweise vor meine 16 GB RAM in diesem Jahr zu erweitern, kenne mich aber nicht wirklich mit dem ganzen Technikkram aus.

Is there any possibility to block a client slot entirely until an event happens? I want to create a single player mission, in which the player first spawns as an airplane. After this airplane got killed or has landed (i.e. after its speed is 0) I want to let the player automatically spawn in another aircraft. For example I could use this for a mission, where the player first recons ground targets with one aircraft and then bombs the targets with another aircraft.

:D Hätte er bloß DCS gespielt. Dann wüsste er, dass das normal ist, weil die MiG seitlich ein besseres Sichtfeld hat als vorne. Edit: Achso. Das erklärt wohl den fehlenden Krater und dass ich damit keine Panzer geknackt bekomme. Es ist aber auch so schon höllisch schwer eine Bombe präzise auf eine Einheit zu werfen.

+1

Das sieht ja brutal aus, wenn heutzutage noch so ein MiG Bomben abwirft. Bei mir kommen solchen Explosionen aber nicht zustande, selbst wenn ich den Tactical Drop Schalter nach oben gedrückt habe. Jemand eine Idee? Edit: Mit den FAB-250 Bomben habe ich jetzt eine größere Explosion hinbekommen. Bisher hatte ich die BL755 und die RBK-250 ausprobiert. Die scheinen ziemlich schwach zu sein.

Your stutterings are probably not caused by your graphics card. It is because of your HDD drive. Just install DCS on a SSD and save your money! ;)

Almost always I am startled by a missile when hits me. This gives me a better thrill than any of those horror games. :D I guess in your situation you got hit by a heat seeking missile, so you should use flares simultaneously to your bomb run. It can be quite an interesting experience seeing how those missiles are barely missing you.

A mission from ED: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3752412&postcount=107 Probably you guys have already read that post, but I want to list it here for future readers.

It seems like the Steam version is now worth more than the standalone version. https://steamcommunity.com/games/223750/announcements/detail/1706202272929081700

Are they also going to add new functional switches like for the hydraulic pressure selector?
