Not sure if it has been mentioned, but the RB Mirage 2000 is on sale on Steam, 25% off. None of the other RB planes are on sale. Slip up or good news? -
I saw some 32" 4K OLED screens, like the Odyssey G8. That's a whack o' cash. I'm willing to spend, but that might be out of my snack bracket. About $1600Cdn. with the tax. That's a chunk.
-
Morning, I guess performance is the concern with 4k. I have a 3700X/64RAM/4070. I get solid FPS at 2K on my 27", and I tend to fly small SP missions, but wasn't sure what the loss would be. I have a very nice 27" monitor and if I go to 32" I don't want to lose the eye candy. And to answer KKSnowbear, I tend to sit pretty close.
-
My question is: Staying at 1440p but going from 27" to 32". Is the picture still very good or will giant visible pixels reach out and slap me? I'm all about the eye candy. It must be very sweet. Thank you.
-
Bummer the FC3 Mig-15 isn't on sale, I would have bought it. Oh well.
-
So you're participating in the thread to say that others should not be allowed to participate... in the thread that you are participating in. Interesting.
-
Pour me a drink first, you handsome devil.
-
Read the install info and nearly had a mental breakdown. Maybe this will get into an update at one point.
-
Days of our Lives.
-
Agreed! One simply cannot not have a Strike Eagle.
-
Took the Mi-8 out to see what was what and go more inconsistencies. A 10% drop here, a 30% drop there, and then a 10% drop where the 30% drop was before, and so on and so forth. Only sure of two things: The Mi-8 is awesome and the SA map is gorgeous.
-
Curious if the updates have been made and are being held back, or there has been no work done at all. Maybe when ED and RB take a long hot shower together again, we get months worth of updates released. A nice thought anyway.
-
I knew you'd say that.
-
The only thing I'm noticing with FPS hits that is consistent are the inconsistencies. This time over the mainland, up and down in the altitude, valleys and peaks and very low level. I get a 10% hit going going west, turn around and I get a 30% hit over the same place going east. Most planes drop 10% at treetop then the Phantom drops 30% and then another plane that dropped 10% before now drops 30% and then the Phantom drops almost nothing at all at very! low level. Though the Phantom still tends to get hit the hardest. It's like rolling the dice.
-
Profit, mayhem, and world domination.
-
But as posted, I was only getting the FPS hit on the SA map with the Phantom. I lost 10% with the Hornet or Eagle, but 30% to 50% with the Phantom. I'll fart around a bit more and see what's what.
-
Not really. I can count the A2A missiles I've fired in the Phantom. I'm all about the A2G. But if you have a recommendation, I'm happy to hear it.

Just did another bunch of runs, touch and go at Mount Pleasant, bop over to Stanley, all kinds of altitudes, then rooftop over Stanley, and the only consistent thing I noticed is the the Phantom hurts the most. FPS hits between 30% and 50% over the same spot on different flights. In the F-18, it's almost always a 10% hit at most, once I got about a 30% drop over Stanley, tore past, went up, went down, turned around, came down, and got a 10% hit in the exact same place and altitude over Stanley except this time I was going the other direction. The Phantom is the only consistent FPS killed with me. I'll try some more on the mainland. What a gorgeous map!
-
Just did a series of completely unscientific tests over Stanley and only got a frame drop of 50% in the Phantom, and not even every flight in the Phantom. F-14, F15E, F-16, F-18, maybe a 10% drop here and there between the clouds and the dirt. And then I fly the Phantom and get the same 10% drop in the exact same place I got the 50% drop several flights back. Fortunetaly this is an enjoyable task for an early Sunday morning with my coffee and I'll try it some more.
-
Are you in VR? Because I've had several pancake mode flights today in all kinds of weather, different planes, all altitudes, and I'm not getting those FPS like I was a few months back.
-
I requested 1975 Ann-Margret as my WSO. That was very inclusive of me.
-
I'm flying in pancake mode, not VR. But I'm getting solid FPS. Is it worse depending on where you are on the map?
-
I've had bad experiences on the map, great big fat hits on the frame rate down low, but lately it's been fine. I'll give it a torture test and see how bad I can make it.
-
I just had a great flight on the SA map and was very happy with the eye-candy and the performance was solid. Did some mach loop stuff, flew low enough to cut the grass, and the FPS just rocked along. Defintely one of my favourite maps.
-
There is a good argument for that. I have the F-15E, the Harrier, and the SA map and I think they are all great. This situation sucks, that's for sure, but RB's PR has always been DOA.
