Cheers Dragon I doubt we even turned the radios on ;) Teamspeak laziness

Guys Am coming back to BS with the new update and am a little rusty. In an MP flight, (two one ship flights), we can see each other on ABRIS,(me commander, him wingman), and we have different ID’s but we can’t share targets. I’ve read that we must use the same “Data link frequency”. Is this just the radio frequency or is there another dedicated data link radio panel I have overlooked? That makes sense and is something we sometimes forget as we use TeamSpeak.

It makes a lot of sense to iterate the Flaming Cliffs brand after each new DCS module to maintain compatability and upgrade the engine. Then swap out each basic FM plane with its AFM DCS counterpart. (if you want to). Lets face it boys & gals, who here will NOT want to scream out of Nellis AFB in an F-15 in full AB to intercept a flight of Migs flying cover for bombers threatening Vegas. At night. ;) In a thunderstorm. :pilotfly:

Hah, don’t underestimate the sheer inventiveness, downright sneakiness and utter backhanded disregard for the accepted rules of engagement of your average common or garden persecuted underdog who has 12 laser guided missile, a moveable cannon and a very large chip on their shoulder. There will be some very creative murder taking place I will wager. Having said all that, mines the hog. ;)

who's going to drop the first CBU-97 onto a hovering Shark? LLLLLLLeeeeeeeeeerrrooooooooyyyyy :pilotfly:

now how about A-10 vs Ka-50 deathmatch w/guns only.......PAC vs SHKVAL ;)

two new releases in a week. thats sone good going!! bollocks to skyrim. ;( thats staying in its box this weekend.

thank got i've got a 140mb internet line at work. w00t!!!!

Worth keeping just for Pete Bonnani's Freddy Mercury 'tache

all working now. all praise the new installer! now i need to learn to fly the shark again. what does this big red button do?.............

There are not enough hours in the day. Flaming Cliffs got me back into sims but I was still mainly a RTS/XXXX guy, then Black shark comes out. That got me into A-10, and then I bought Cliffs of Dover. Hmmmm. it’s not ready yet, so I got Rise of Flight. Can’t shoot for crap but very very nice. Then BMS came out and Falcon came back from the dead. Now BS2 and Take on Helicopters. MS Flight in the works, DLC upcoming for ToH. A Fixed CloD (hopefully). Dynamic campaigns in ROF, (assuming I ever learn to shoot in those old crates), and then DCS-NEXT. Phew. 2012 is going to be a good year for flight simmers IMO.

Downloaded new installer & 3 x BIN files. Different from last weeks files that's for sure. Lets see tonight. :cry: If i see "Black Shark must be installed" ONE MORE TIME! it wil be my PC that demonstrates an advanced flight model and not the KA-50

Eihort - did it work? Nomdeplume - I saw that all 4 download files are now different than they were last week. I will re-download from work where i've got a fast internet connection. Fingers crossed. Never had this issue with A-10 and i've upgraded / reinstalled every version since the first beta. I have faith ;)

.....and do what with it? "the file "bs2_upgrade_setup_en-1.bin" could not be located"... my files are called "bs2_patch_setup_en-1.bin" this is......frustrating i get the feeling....... time for bed...in the morning this will all have been a dream...

still no joy for me. bought BS2 upgrade Black Shark must be installed reinstalled BS Activation denied by server. The number of activations allowed by your Serial Number is exceeded. Please contact the product publisher requested more wait 3 days get new activation key reinstall BS1 run game activate quit Black Shark must be be installed ... ... *pop* .. buggerit back to A-10

There has to be a "you are allowed to kill ONE BLACK SHARK ONLY WITHOUT GETTING BANNED" rule surely? ;) Mind you, a slow turning hog might get a nasty shock from a ripple Vikhr launch.

i Hope its out before the SimHQ fly-in on friday/saturday. "Look, down there, t-80'S hiding in the new TREE SHADOWS!" ;)

Dear god, please unlock my chuffing activation lockout today !!! This is killing me. I repent buying TOH!!! There i said it ;)

I love it when a plan comes together!

I bought 'Take on Heliciopters' as I was having a helo itch and two days later this comes out!!!!!!! Sounds awesome and I cant wait to fly as soon as ED sort my serial key / activations out ;) Figuring out combined ops is going to be a whole load of fun. Damn me and my habit of rebuilding my PC every 6 months. Grounded because of Starforce :mad: I wonder if their HQ is near Batumi as i have a few GBU-31's in the hanger and an A-10 all warmed up!! (Starforce HQ is in Moscow. Anyone care to lase the target for me? ;))

Where there's a will there's a way! To bridge the gap between Russian and US, we just need.............. With a scottish accent of course! Cowboy - Once i get my new serial and get off the ground i will update the TARGET profile next week.

Looking forward massively to joint BS & A-10 missions, (assumig ED allow them in the same coalition. I will be very surprised if not ;)). Using the shark as a live FAC, how's that gong to work. Co-ordinates over the radio i guess. Hah, i'll bet the devs never though of that as being an issue or a requirement. I've missed the shark to be honest, and whilst i love my hog, part of me (a big part), is itching to go through the engine startup, hear the new sounds, enjoy the added immersion of HDR & shadows and then realise i've forgot how to trim, and rediscover the sheer simple joy of finding a good stout hill to hide behind! Getting my big daddy hi-fi setup at the end of the month with my emoumous subwoofer. WHUP WHUP WHUPWHUPWHUP goes the main rotor! Has the control config changed? I will have to update my profile if it has http://files.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/13224/

As someone who has bought it but am waiting for my original BS1 activations to be reset before I can install and fly :( What’s it like? Does it feel fresh? What are the differences you notice? Can you have a Russian JTAC? Will it pull me back from A-10? :pilotfly: And please, I’m not interested in the whole “is it worth it / this should be free” argument that has taken over the release thread.

Eddie What do i have to do to "own" an airbase? Just plonk some friendly units down?

aha. Is there a list of airports where you can refuel, repair and rearm?
