is anyone else really worried about how big of a pain its gonna be configuring your joystick? Im sticking with my x52, and its really gonna suck probably.

wow this thread became huge. If I had a fully read to fly A-10C waiting for me, i bet i could take i could taxi it to the runway, fly it a bit, and land it. I of course couldnt employ any weapons, but i could probably just fly it. I would just be very careful. I would take off at a normal than higher speed, as well as land at a higher than normal speed to ensure that the risk of a stall is eliminated.

as long as it is an american, Air Force fighter (not navy), ill be very happy. I would be overwhelmed if they announced an F-15E or F-16C. That would be so sick!

heres mine i5-750 at 3.5 ati 5770 4gb ddr3 ram how high will i be able to play, approximately?

GROOM LAKE AKA AREA 51 IS LISTED ON THERE!!! W00000000T!!!! i also would like to say its hard to believe how far high fidelity flight simulators have come. it is hard to believe we are receiving such a sim as the might A-10C. Very cool. And these images look absolutely stunning. Makes me happy that I bought my new gaming rig, i think it will be well worth it to experience this sim in its enirety. Thanks again ED :thumbup:

how much would the thrust to weight ratio increased if it was funded? currently it is like .39 i believe.

good question. hopefully some testers or developers can answer this.

im not gonna lie, i would love the manual to be released early. espcecially one with rings holding it together. this way when the sim comes out i would be ready to go.

does the double trigger hold work? Like first depression is steady the jet, second depression fires? Does this function in DCS A-10C

i disagree. i think landing would be possible but not correct. if it were me, i would fly the approach at 20 knots above what it should be to eliminate the chance of me stalling, and also allowing me to put it down nice and easy. most runways are designed in case an emergency landing is needed , therefor needing more speed, therefore needing more room to stop.

not really, but neither do a lot of other things. its just interesting to think you know enough to fly the jet. but lets say just pure sim experience, not flying at all in real life. i mean the a-10c is fly by wire, which makes it generally easier to fly than a cessna. an f-15 pilot once said that there is more of a challenge in landing a cessna than an f-15.

this is true, but they hog pilot, before he flys the hog, only has experience in T-38C's, T-36's, and the A-10 sim. He flys the real thing for the first time by him self, so frankly, he relies mostly on his simulator experience, since the T-38 most likely handles much differently than the A-10

not just the engines, i mean everything, including avionics, everything.

Since this is an extremely high fidelity simulator I like to think so. But I believe wags once said the engines start up process was 95% accurate because of some top secret things.

Will there be any sort of implementation of maintenance in DCS A-10C? Ive always found it an interest part of military aviation, and would like a post flight report of what I broke. I imagine it will go down like this

Anyone can make an area 51 with the ask kit or whatever ed announced on simhq

ED has a sense of humor, im sure they will model the base and have saucers flying around in the area. Dont get me started on a serious discussion on whats there...better yet, what is at S4

is it just me or does anyone else REALLY want to see a DCS: strike eagle!?

LOL so true dude. And dude when I found out they were doing the A-10, i nearly screamed. First of all, its american, huge plus in my book. Second, come on, its a fuc*in A-10!!!!!!!!

F-16C block 52 hands down. no questions asked. plenty of declassified material, unlike the raptor.

how will topcover work in dcs a10c multiplayer online?

Is it possible to release this kind of functionality through a patch?

maybe its my place to apologize for starting a full-blown forum based war?

off topic, but has there been any word, release, news, or even rumors on a directx 12?

man, i just wish someone would offer us a good, deep explanation of this Dx11 thing. All of the sudden they just hopped onto the Dx11 scene, which barely anyone is on yet. Not that im complaining, im gonna take advantage of dx11, just want to know how it will affect gameplay, what kind of graphical additions are made possible my it, etc.
