Steel Jaw Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 Trolling for somewhere to hang my hardcore hat...err, yeah, that's it. Thanx for any responses. ...no wait, it's not for me, it's a friend that wants to know. :joystick: "You see, IronHand is my thing" My specs: W10 Pro, I5/11600K o/c to 4800 @1.32v, 64 GB 3200 XML RAM, Red Dragon 7800XT/16GB, monitor: GIGABYTE M32QC 32" (31.5" Viewable) QHD 2560 x 1440 (2K) 165Hz.
159th_Falcon Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 Define "hardcore" Use A10C whit only the most realistic settings? ONLY fly the A10C Or also other aircraft? Always serious and realistic missions whit detailed briefs? Or also a lot of just fun missions? How "hardcore" you want it?

Panzertard Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 Mower, tell your friend to check in with GG and the 44th. He'll become pretty hardcore if he survives GG's training schedule. And he'll be bleeding from his eyes & ears after a few hours online with the guys at the 44th. Btw, good to hear you don't take it as seriously as your friend, because I worry a bit over GG's mental & physical health. Tell your friend to take it easy, will you? Cheers.

Scabbers Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 16thACCW is transitioning from falcon and FC2 to A-10C. Great bunch of people to fly with. http://www.16thaccw.org/ 1 Now where is that speed brakes control again? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Steel Jaw Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) By hardcore, I mean all the avionics and weaponeering on full, realistic tactics and take-offs/landings. Team missions with a goal. Beyond that, having fun and remembering RL comes first.

And he'll be bleeding from his eyes & ears after a few hours online with the guys at the 44th. And that's for the 30-40 IP/Checkrides of training where you qualify as the lowest form of life trusted to navigate and fly his aircraft on his own ... Then come the 20-30 rides where you get to actually point weapons at someone, complete with AMRAAM suppsitories for failing to meet DLOs :D Btw, good to hear you don't take it as seriously as your friend, because I worry a bit over GG's mental & physical health. Tell your friend to take it easy, will you? Cheers. I'll be ok. Really.

Steel Jaw Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 Reason I ask is that there dont seem to be too many out there. Perhaps that will change after release.

Eddie Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 That's fine, I think I could set up a nice AmbushCAP with the Hog. :D

Beyond that, having fun and remembering RL comes first. Mower you can tell your "friend" to check out the War Hawks, because this sounds exactly like what we have been doing with all of the sims we support. While all of our members won't be focused exclusively on DCS:A-10C, (we also have members flying Rise of Flight, IL-2 Blackshark w/FC2.0, and ArmA OA) we do have many that will and are getting more applications daily. Here is a link to our recruiting post in the multiplayer forum here. War Hawks Recruiting Post ~S~ Boomer DCS: Blackshark Cockpit Trainer DCS: A-10C Cockpit Trainer

104th_Crunch Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 A little early to plan for since we are still in beta, but I suspect the 104th will have an A-10C wing. If it is anything like our Ka-50 wing ran by Tyger, you will not get much more hardcore :)

dane48 Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 Don"t mean to stray off subject, but I'll be looking for a "sofcore" bunch to fly with. Easy going, newB and some that sometimes just want to "fly". Hope there will be some available. Trying to get some of my FSX buddies involved but the two that I thought might be serious have never been involved in combat sims. Only with the FS9 and FSX series.
