sirrah Posted April 29 Posted April 29 One of my friends just enthusiastically posted a mediocre video of MSFS in our WhatsApp group... Obviously, I now need to blow him (the whole group) away with a fantastic DCS video. But I can only flabbergast them once. So, what DCS showcase video would you suggest? My friends are all quite technical-minded (most of 'em are my ex-colleagues when we worked as maintenance crew on the RNLAF F-16's), so I'm looking for a video with some nice close-ups of fluttering wings/wing flex, gear/flap retractions, close-up cockpit dials footage, etc I was thinking about this awesome one from Heatblur, with some very nice close-ups, but it obviously lacks other aircraft & helo's. 1 System specs: i7-8700K @stock speed - GTX 1080TI @ stock speed - AsRock Extreme4 Z370 - 32GB DDR4 @3GHz- 500GB SSD - 2TB nvme - 650W PSU HP Reverb G1 v2 - Saitek Pro pedals - TM Warthog HOTAS - TM F/A-18 Grip - TM Cougar HOTAS (NN-Dan mod) & (throttle standalone mod) - VIRPIL VPC Rotor TCS Plus with ALPHA-L grip - Pointctrl & aux banks <-- must have for VR users!! - Andre's SimShaker Jetpad - Fully adjustable DIY playseat - VA+VAICOM - Realsimulator FSSB-R3 ~ That nuke might not have been the best of ideas, Sir... the enemy is furious ~ GUMMBAH
razo+r Posted April 29 Posted April 29 Spoiler: This is a satirical post. Take everything you read below with humor and humor only. Failure to do so may upset you. I can highly recommend you this one. It will for sure blow them away... It got what you want, close up shots, intense action and faithfully captures what (online) DCS is all about. 1

That's my alltime favorite "DCS"-Video and deserves an Oscar (imho) - but I don't think it is suited to show off DCS due to its heavy post processing and editing.

The launch trailer is even more epic imo: If that doesn't works, you can always rely on a classic : 2
Caveman655 Posted April 30 Posted April 30 (edited) I have used this one in the past to show off DCS, so long as you can get past some of the video being sped up for effect and being mainly the F-14 and F-18. Failing that maybe look through Keller Dominik's channel for something? He posted some good stuff over the years. https://www.youtube.com/@kellerdominik7256 Edited April 30 by Caveman655 1
