Hootman9104 Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Just checked out the CWG map last night for the first time, and all I can say is WOW! I used VR, and it was with quite a bit of trepidation that I loaded up an Apache in the mission editor and took flight in Berlin. I expected lags and other issue, and was SHOCKED I tell you that while I did experience some stuttering and a FPS drop from 72fps to about 54, it was still perfectly fine, even with all the detailed scenery. I picked evening so the lights and sun going down put stress on, and it was still beautiful. I then went to I forget with major AFB on a day flight, and flew the Apache around checking out the sights, with almost NO fps issues, a good steady 72fps. I saw the DCS Mart (nice little addition ;)), moving combines bailing hay, tunnels, on and on. This map is going to be great for the Apache. I did a rough measurement and it's something like 450 NM x 240 NM I think. SO much potentional for some good ol' A Model Apache Cold warfare! I plan on plotting a route some the SW to the NW, and traverse the entire country this evening in my Apache, maybe with Aux tanks but probably just make fuel stops along the way, and just take in every bit of this amazing scenery. So well optimized, and looks fantastic. My only complaint right now would be that there is maybe not enough green variation in the forests, itsa lotta green-green. Going to try some Fall and Winter to see what that looks like. Bravo on that map, well worth the cost, and it's nice to have a place for us Cold-Warriors to wargame that scenario that we all trained so hard for back in the day, I was a Reagan era soldier, (First stationed at Fort Bragg from 85-88 as a UH-60 Crewchief), and we put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into wargaming the European invasion. There was no doubt in anyones mind that it would be a brutal confrontation with massive losses on both sides. 4
Kh4 Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Yes, have to agree. I've been setting up missions with Briefing Room as a way to explore the map. Early morning with a little lifting fog is absolutely stunning. Good mix of urban, industrial and rural areas with rolling hills. Nice to have some green for a spell. Great map! 4
