Major SNAFU Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Title says it all. I finally have a rig that will run DCS World and A10C great and now I have been looking at adding a helo. If there was a BS1 upgrade path that would be great - but otherwise I am looking at the two new helos with interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongHarm Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 The two new helos aren't attack choppers. I would highly recommend BS2.. it may have horribly outdated avionics, but there's nothing quite like it. Mastering this bird is an achievement that provides more reward than I can convey. Resolve in the beginning not to get discouraged when it gets tough.. keep at it and the pay off is enormous. It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of like the non-gunship missions I have watched with the other helos as well. I will keep a watch out for a sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major SNAFU Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 One additional question. Are the sales available on the main site, or on steam, or both. I ask because I will never willingly use Steam again. I have never had anything but problems with it with the few games I purchase that way.

Sokol1_br Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Eventually are sale in one or another. No problem in buy from STEAM, I get BS 2 at two weeks on last STEAM sales, use the key to install on DCSW and not even open the STEAM app. ;) The graphics improvements worth the buy, to not talk in other improvements.

King_Hrothgar Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 There are sales for both steam and here at the DCS store. Generally speaking, there is a 70% off flash sale for 1-2 days each month and a longer week long sale every 2-3 months on the DCS site. I don't know how often steam sales come up.
