PeterP Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 (edited) Hello - First of all: I love DCS:BlackShark I spotted it the first time in the German FS-Magazine And what can I say- since than I never fired FSX for a helicopter ride up again! And I had really had a hard time to get this Simulator - not because it is so hard to get here in Germany - no -it is because you can't spot it the shops! You have to look among Fishing and Sailing simulations... Think about that I got my DCS copy also only by "accident". I bought the FS-Magazine only because I wanted to read a review of the helicopter add-on BO-105 from nemeth designs for FSX ... and than I read this review about a strange Russian helicopter.... So how many people grab Hawks instead of BlackShark because they didn't know it better?! And I thought that I have to do something about this and here is what I'm doing everytime I'm near a electronic store like "MediaMarkt" or "Saturn" (Germany's equivalent to "Bestbuy"): This is a video from my last "shopping tour" I did it up to now in 3 markets (and more to come). And so should you :) Be a DCS-Media Guerilla! -Join Now! -Spread the Word! Edited October 12, 2011 by PeterP 10

PeterP Posted May 6, 2009 Author Posted May 6, 2009 (edited) Hehe cool! But you should have put them in front of HAWX. :D Hey ! That's kinda what I did - before I started shooting I had to free up some space- And I took HAWX out of this place and put this copies to where they hide the "Barbie makes a Picnic *Online!*" simulations! I would done more but they only had 4(!) copies of BlackShark. And I doupt that I broke a existing law doing so - but it's a little thrill in it!:P The worst what could happen that a worker would look strange what you are doing there and maybe put them back again. ROFLOL :thumbup: Great idea! I will follow your example and check out the local MediaMarkt :D When you do : Make a photo and post it here! :) Edited May 6, 2009 by PeterP

PeterP Posted May 6, 2009 Author Posted May 6, 2009 (edited) Very nice and thanks for support! The pleasure is on my side! Your Product makes me feel like being a 13 year old kid again that is looking at the possibility of the future... I'm in total awe and amazed what can be done at a "home computer" - and I bet that up to now no much military sized simulators can do the same! I'm looking happily in the future with developers of your expert-knowledge that handle such complex and big tasks in this progressive and future-oriented way! - and let us "little men" participate in this development! Thank You -and the whole Eagle Dynamics staff for your effort! And I'm not in the position to buy multiple of downloads from you (money)- and it would also not be the right way to give you support - I just try to show how simple it can be to attract someone other for the "right way" into serious gaming. -hopefully relating to a bigger community and leading to the fact that you and your company will not only work for projects that are closed for the public. :) Edited May 6, 2009 by PeterP nicht dem englishen sprachfluss meachtig

-Nighthawk- Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 haha that's what I've been doing, getting as many copies as I can and just spreading them out across the shelves (covering FSX, HAWX etc. ;) )
Kuky Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I went out today to my local shoping centre and in 2 major games stores I did not see it on the shelf. I asked at one (think it was Games Wizard) and they say they don't have it and never hurd of it... went back to Electronics Boutique and asked at counter... this time they did have 2 copies but in store room (I'm thinking how can people know you have it if it's not even out there). So to make it short, I didn't get the oportunity to put it on the top of the shelf (at EW at least HAWX was on the bottom shelf) but I did buy it... I think that does it for me with buyig DCS BS... first DL Russian, then DL English now DVD :P Next stop... DCS A-10A ;) 1 No longer active in DCS...

Zorg_DK Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Awesome idea and video. I really laughed at the end. :D I will do the same at my local game shops in Denmark.. "There are only 10 types of people in the world — those who understand binary, and those who don't." [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
