Florida Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 Hey, guys! Been lurking for a long time, and want to get involved in this multiplayer stuff. I've been a flight simmer since the 80's, so I know how to fly. But never been into military aircraft or dogfighting. Figured it was time to expand my horizons, so to speak. Been checking YouTube and Twitch and watching Grim Reapers and Ralphidude, for example, and now I'm wondering - do you guys use the gaming setting of your aircraft for these missions, or the sim setting? Seems that all that cockpit work in a "study" aircraft would diminish the fun factor. Secondly, how does one break into the multiplayer circuit? Any suggestions on where to start? I'm still doing the A-10C tutorials, and learning the weapon systems. But I'd love to get my feet wet somewhere. -= Gary =- a.k.a.

feefifofum Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 I can almost guarantee you no one uses the game settings...some groups are geared more towards "gamey" mechanics and missions but the cockpit work in a study sim is what makes the fun for many of us. For those that prefer simple systems, the FC3 planes are a great choice though after time you'll come to regard those as a handicap rather than an advantage. THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC

I'm working on learning every system in the A-10C right now. I prefer the sim over the gaming model myself. I'm using every YouTube video I can find to learn more about the Hawg. Now I just need to get on a server and see what interacting with other flyers is like. Still a newb at most of this, but I'm learning.:joystick: -= Gary =- a.k.a.
