supesoft Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Got myself the Mig-15bis and the Bf-109K. Don't have a clue when I'll find the time to become familiar and capable in either of these two aircraft as I am STILL trying to get my head around all the strengths and weaknesses of the F-86F, P-51D, and of course the voluminous amount of knowledge one must have to operate ALL the systems in the A-10C. But I will keep acquiring these modules because as I told my wife, Eagle Dynamics (DCSW) is the ONLY waterhole in the desert for those of us who want reasonably accurate flight simming, so I will support them financially even if I may not avail myself of each of their offerings. Thanks ED!! Well said sir! :)
kontiuka Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Now I'm between getting the Sabre or the Huey.Both great modules. I'd say if you're already committed to the Mi-8 then go for the Sabre for something different. Then get the Huey at another time.
supesoft Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Both great modules. I'd say if you're already committed to the Mi-8 then go for the Sabre for something different. Then get the Huey at another time. That's how I was leaning actually Thanks for the help. One more thing though. What are your thoughts on dropping the Mi8 for the Huey instead?
supesoft Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 What is 1200 Russia time? Sale ends noon in Russia? Or is it 2359 hours? How much time do I have? Credit card got flagged for some reason and I'm yappin on the phone with a rep while wondering when the sale will end abruptly..
supesoft Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Please add possibility to pay with paysafecard. Thanks for that quick response. Wife just sorted it out. Amazingly.. She pulled it off man. Thought I was gonna miss out on the sale. Grabbed Huey and Mi-8 Own all the choppers. Korea can can wait, and probably will anyway, so.. :) Edited April 13, 2015 by supesoft
OnlyforDCS Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I'm looking for some advice on what others think would be a good purchase for me at this point. Don't want to let this sale slip by without grabbing a couple modules. Committed to the MI-8 already @ $15 and am wanting to keep it at $15 since I want it all eventually, minus the divorce. So. Now I'm between getting the Sabre or the Huey. My currently purchased modules are as follows: P-51D BF-109 K4 KA-50 A-10C Flaming Cliffs 3 Thanks for your input. I was going to suggest the Mig21Bis. Purchased it yesterday, gotta say it's probably the best DCS module I have tried. That's based on just a few flights and messing around with the training missions for a bit. If you enjoy learning systems (both fun and funny!) and a great flight model this iconic bird can not be beat. Current specs: Windows 10 Home 64bit, i5-9600K @ 3.7 Ghz, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB Samsung EVO 860 M.2 SSD, GAINWARD RTX2060 6GB, Oculus Rift S, MS FFB2 Sidewinder + Warthog Throttle Quadrant, Saitek Pro rudder pedals.
Mango Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I just got the MiG-21 too. Able to start up and get her off the ground, but that's it. Can't wait to start throwing missiles around! Supesoft, good call on getting the Huey. It's one of the most fun modules to fly and comes with an excellent campaign. The Sabre does not include any campaign.
Ramstein Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 if the Mig was $18 I would have gotten that... but really want a USA 'SEAD Fighter'... till then... ASUS Strix Z790-H, i9-13900, WartHog HOTAS and MFG Crosswind G.Skill 64 GB Ram, 2TB SSD EVGA Nvidia RTX 2080-TI (trying to hang on for a bit longer) 55" Sony OLED TV, Oculus VR
agentdarnell Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Bought the two aircraft and went back for more, but missed out. Next sale I will get the bf109 or a trainer. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Slazi Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 For all those who bought the Mi-8, you may want to join our Steam group. Always good to have more pilots in the skies. :pilotfly:
supesoft Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Congrats on the Mig21bis I just got the MiG-21 too. Able to start up and get her off the ground, but that's it. Can't wait to start throwing missiles around! Supesoft, good call on getting the Huey. It's one of the most fun modules to fly and comes with an excellent campaign. The Sabre does not include any campaign. Hey Mango, This was something I considered when making my decision. The campaign. Really looking forward to flying it. Just busy with work. I'll need a couple days to settle into it and actually learn anything. Fell deeply in love with Ka-50. Really happy with the Huey. They did a great job of it, and all their products apparently. Leatherneck really did do a good job on that cockpit. I do aim to own that jet. I spent a great deal of time researching it. I like it, it's fast! I like it a lot and will buy it. $15 or bust for me lately unfortunately, if I'm ever to own a decent number of modules. Mig15bis was obviously out of reach for me now. But I'm watching it too, patiently, like a wolf. Enjoy the mig21bis. Lol, "the dart". Totally. Edited April 14, 2015 by supesoft

It does seem to be stunning quality. It was a close call for me, in the end, I chose 2 modules instead of 1. It broke the deal, that I could get 2 by passing on the dart. I was impressed with the amount of training tools available with the Mig21bis, almost bought it. Once it's price loses some altitude, I'll shoot it down. Edited April 14, 2015 by supesoft
Bourrinopathe Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Both MiGs are great deals and faithful simulations of two Russian aviation wonders. I know it's all about financial balance, but buying them now also means a stronger pat on the devs backs ;) I couldn't resist even if I know I won't fly them before long. /// ВКБ: GF Pro MkII+MCG Pro/GF MkII+SCG L/Black Mamba MkIII/Gladiator/T-Rudder MkII | X-55 Rhino throttle/Saitek Throttle Quadrant | OpenTrack+UTC /// ZULU +4 /// /// "THE T3ASE": i9 9900K | 64 GB DDR4 | RTX 2080ti OC | 2 TB NVMe SSDs, 1 TB SATA SSD, 12 TB HDDs | Gigabyte DESIGNARE mobo ///
