  1. Thanks! Loving it so far. You also forced me to finally learn how to input and update waypoints, so that's a plus. Do you think I should wait until the update comes out to experience it like you intended?
  2. I used to have no problems seeing the HMCS symbology during the day. Now, even at the brightest settings, I can't see it if I'm in anyway facing the sun, or if there is cloud cover below.
  3. I'm in mission 2, and they recommend attacking the SAM at high altitude (angles 25 or greater.) However, there is about 75% cloud cover and despite some holes in the clouds, I have trouble getting into a good position to attack it with an LGB or Mavs. Once we hit WP 7 or so, do we have time to loiter until we can find a good place to attack or is there a time limit?
  4. Much more diverse landscapes (green areas near the coast, desert further inland. Lots of hills and mountains for helicopters to play in. Pretty interesting and detailed cities.
  5. The problem is that the screen will sometimes go black. The screen is NOT off as this time, if the chat window is up, I can see that fine as well as communication windows and alerts. If I look in other directions, I can see. If I were to rotate, say, 90 degrees right I'll be able to see again, but if I then look left back at my original azimuth, the screen goes black. All external views work fine as well as map view, briefings etc. I believe it is specifically related to when the Shkval is active. I have yet to notice this happen when it is caged and I'm just navigating. It doesn't happen immediately after uncaging, but several minutes into a fight, I'll start having the issue. I can alleviate it by caging and flying in a different direction for a minute or two, but I'll maybe get a few seconds of being able to target before it happens again. This only happens on the KA50 and I haven't been able to recreate it in the Hornet, Tomcat, Jeff, Huey, etc. However, in the Hornet, I have seen the screen flicker black once or twice, usually on startup, before it goes away. This has happened in no other VR game I've played. Not even a flicker. Please let me know if you need any more information as I love flying my li'l Black Shark and this is extremely annoying. :) Edit: I get dark flashes with other modules, but they usually go away after a few minutes.
  6. Every time I launch DCS, I get "The following DLCs are not authorized..." showing the two modules I tried during the trial. I can't find a way to remove them as they don't show up in my installed DLC on Steam. The game does launch, but I still want to get rid of the warning. :)
  7. I'm thinking of getting this campaign. Did today's update fix this?
  8. For me, my throttle squeaks badly if I turn the detent around. I need to keep it on to avoid the striction/squeaking.
  9. If that doesn't work out, how about a free hat or t-shirt? :)
  10. I have both, but I'd recommend the Hornet first. There are more features implemented, and carrier ops give you a lot more things to master. More bang for your buck.
  11. That's vortex ring state. Basically you are flying into your own disrupted air and the rotors aren't providing enough lift. If that happens, you gotta cyclic forward and collective down to move out of it and hope you have enough altitude left to do it. :)
