bigcountry Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 1. Are there any servers that have the F 86 yet? 2. What is the purpose of 50's technology being in a game were alot of people are flying up to date technology? Wouldnt the sabre be a sittting duck? Thanks, just holding off on downloading until I see or hear about further improvements Communication is Key
Random Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 1: yes 2: purpose is its fun! Not everyone flys modern jets on all servers because they arent available in all servers. Also up to date? All aircraft in DCS currently are at least a couple of decades old ;)
BWLF.Wolf Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 If you have 1.2.9 already the download for the F-86 is tiny so not much point in delaying all the fun. There are servers with F86 only and servers with the F86 amongst a whole lot of other aircraft. The F86 can do ground pounding pretty well on the servers with lots of A/C, similar to how the P51 gets used but with more effective armament and systems. Many servers wouldn't put A2G birds in the way of enemy A2A so it shouldn't become a sitting duck, not that a good pilot couldn't defend against enemy CAP anyway.

ApoNOOB Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 There is not really much to set up, you will be done in 1 minute.
bigcountry Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 Yeah but for some reason I cant get the rudder pedals to work Communication is Key
bigcountry Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 One more thing sorry. Are there any servers that have missions specifically for the f 86. It would be nice to do some simple bombing and maybe kill a few mig 15s in the process. Thanks Communication is Key
