Mr. Big.Biggs

Once again an overwhelmingly melodramatic response to s simple opinion to which I am also entitled thank you! I was merely suggesting that a post bitching about “bitching “ probably wasn’t a productive use of bandwidth. “Blind fanboy”. Thats funny! Between the use of “fanboy” “troll” and “straw man “ on this forum, its clear who the “trolls” and bullies” really are. Show me one of your productive posts? Bitch away Sally!! Regards

Sooo, he’s a “chump” for wanting “top tier” in 2020 but you were a well informed and educated consumer when you bought “top tier” in 2017??? How very hypocritical of you..... Regards

I think it would be a great Idea for the mods to close this thread before it starts. Just my opinion. Regards

Sorry. I think my problem is I read the forum via the “new posts” button so I see post after post of silliness intertwined with a really good nugget from time to time. After a while, it just gets old and heck, I’m new to this.l can’t imagine these guys that have to deal with it years on end. I should just walk away but between frustration and my sense of humor... I just want to fly a friggen plane without stuttering or ghosting with other real humans. I can’t for the life of me understand the bandwidth wasted with frivolous crap. However, its frivolous crap in my world and I’m only one of many so I will continue to wish for a functional flight Sim, and if people want to walk around, I guess who am I... regards

Edit, Ignore everything but the thanks, I just figured it out!! Actually you’re timing couldn’t be more perfect! I am just scratching my head on that very thing. Is there any literature or video on that? I haven’t delved into the hands on but have been mentally trying to figure a solution. Was thinking about machining wedges but if I can simply rotate!! Thanks and let me know. Regards

Please do not update 2.5.5 until you are absolutely sure it will run in VR. There is a pretty nice community of folks playing on the 2.5.5 servers that run flawlessly, please don’t mess that up! Thanks!

Copy that. Regards

Your upset that they posted incorrect information on reddit and not here???

I just hope they add a ready 5 position so I can sit in a prepped non running bird for hours in anticipation looking around waiting for that callout that never comes. That would be immersive as hell and a total blast!

Wags himself responded “ they have no plans to make the super carrier walkable”. To me this means that they have no plans to make the super carrier walkable. They have released a pretty comprehensive roadmap of the future and no where does it even elude to making the super carrier walkable so in my personal opinion, they have no plans to make the super carrier walkable. But just maybe......

Its about ego and bullying. The ego forces people into Beta because “only noobs fly release”. The more people chasing the “experts” shifts server focus and participation to Beta Folks then on beta DEMAND A working product! As frustration grows, the internet trolls and bullies show up to do what makes them feel valid. Same story in every hobby, club or organization I have been in from high school, Fire service, classic cars, RC airplanes, neighborhood HOA. It’s human nature to want to belong, then once accepted fight to the top of the pecking order... I’m grateful for ED and all of the folks that have got me up and flying, having a blast. I drive a production car, not a prototype..... See y’all in the air! T

I built whats in my signature for that. Probably 4 -6 months ago max. Maybe 5k by time you factor in the IO stuff. Cant wait to blow another grand on the 3080ti :/ 2.55 runs pretty nicely tho fwiw. Regards

They answered this in another post ( the developers). They have NO PLAN to allow walking around on the flight deck or into and out of the ship. One can probably be safe assuming that if you want to enter “ready room” you click a button that says enter ready room and poof, you are there. Time to fly? Push button and poof you are in cockpit. I get the whole immersive thing but to what end? I personally am the type that would prefer a hot start on the carrier but I know others like the checklist thing. Regards

Obviously folks are free to choose which platform they use. I choose stable because even though there are far fewer available servers, I’m still not savvy enough to tell what’s my problem vs an “open beta “ problem. What gets me is the same people that exercise their “choice” then have an absolute hissy when there is a problem. ABSOLUTELY use the forum to report bugs, thats what it for. But the page after page of dissertation about business models, loyalty, disrespect, bitches on and on and on is truly exhausting. I’m new, and have been called out several times by the old salts for negativity, something I have pledged to improve upon. But then these same old salts continue to download beta, then go after the folks that create this sim, some extremely rudely. While I agree as a developer, really hammed up software is a problem, As a community, it is our responsibility to understand what we put on our server, and the ramifications of that choice. I read through hundreds of posts about “rush, rush, rush. Folks are literally screaming about not having early access to the super carrier even after developers have posted repeatedly “ITS NOT READY”. I’m sure they are also preparing for the hundreds of bitches they will get when it releases and has flaws! I hear the A7 is going to suck according to multiple posts. Just released the news last week and everything from “wrong model, wrong developers, I can’t believe its not the F8.... Run whichever version you want, enjoy it’s strengths, accept and report its flaws. MOST IMPORTANTLY HAVE FUN!!!!!! Regards

Hi. What version y’all flying on your server? Thanks!

There are several really good tutorials on YouTube on how to do this. Keep in mind that unless your running a server, you will be the only one who can see it to my understanding anyway. Regards!

Tried the whole wingman thing in MP server yesterday. Was trying to fly the wing of our awacs after fighting back a few reds. Damn thing broke hard right into me, like it was going evasive. I’m continuing to make friends in multi player! Oh boy.....

F14. Wicked in a dogfight if you know what your doing. Other would be f18 but it feels like a flying nintendo in my opinion. Some love it though. It too is a heck of a plane.

Agreed, imagination is a great way to ease one’s troubles for a bit. Only problem I see is that you know dudes will be firing them all over the servers just to be a pain in the butt. Everyone has their definition of enjoyment. That’s why we’re here. Regards

Yep, I am sure that would bring hours of enjoyment....

I find it interesting that one time I will load into a MP server and be locked at 45 psi on the ground with 45-60 while flying. I crash and load back in and it stutters on the ground with 45 psi in the air. Ping rates “seem” good. Their obviously is more to the issue than just a single setting or configuration that “works”. Its almost like my pc has mood swings.... I do believe I have it set on single player to about the best I’m going to get tho and I am quite happy. I did tweak something lately that makes distant planes “shimmer” instead of black blobs making them quite hard to see. Will fuss more with it when I finally get the guts to update to the next OB. Still flying stable and haven’t opened OB since this morning whole update thing began. Going to wait till the get some more patches out.

Per below specs and my index, I’m using every ounce of power she has and still have struggles maintaining 45fps with good settings Haven’t even tried 2.56 ob upgrade yet ( or whatever the number is currently) Saving my pennies already to grab a 3080ti if and when they release. Don’t care what they cost but I’m hooked and want more!!! Regards

So fog of war removes all friendly planes from the map or jus ones that technology wouldn’t normally see? There were other blue planes on the f10 map. Interesting Thanks

My aim 54 after I broke lock to dodge the missle. Would never had fired a fox 3 if I knew there was a friendly down range. It just kept on going and going.

Ok, so ventured again into a larger MP server. Still a noob so trying to pay attention and not F up. Catch the wing of another 14 and with his permission decide to tag along. Cruise along at about 20k feet when jester calls out 2 bogies dead ahead 54 miles. I see 2 chevrons heading my way on the scope, spread left and drop about 3000 feet. Lock up the northern guy. Check the F10, no friendlies visible. Punch off a 54 at about 36 miles and stay locked. Finally, I have to break low left as I can see his missile heading for my face. As I come back hot I see him flare and also now he is close in and a big red Id blob, clearly a bogie. I lock up a heater and let it rip. Kill!!!!(team ??????) Apparently my Phoenix kept on going and hit an unseen friendly. Now instead of feeling like a hero, im getting the a$$hat calls on the radio. Wtf are you supposed to do??? Short of driving into this guy? How can radar, and more importantly the F10 map miss a lurking friendly?? What am I missing. Thanks Ps, I did apologize which was graciously accepted and also hit the bogie with my heater! I should add that it was not my wingman I hit ������
