TooBad51 Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 Well, i think first all you must RTFM, and later share your opinions :doh: :doh:
159th_Viper Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 The dude is obviously playing-up to his target audience. I'm pretty sure he's not that **** **** after-hours/when he steps away from the keyboard/his youtube channel. Hey, at least he apologized, which is where I stopped watching.

joey45 Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 ^^ LoL. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I only fly the Shark, so I'd be as lost as him in the Hog pit. That being said, watching this has to be like pulling teeth for any of the Hog pilots =) "Just push the button already!

Frogisis Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 That's what was fun about it, that you keep saying "Noooo! You're almost there! That one! That one! Augh you were so close!" It's kinda like in a horror movie where you're yelling at the character onscreen to not go through That Door. After seeing the Giant Bomb one and now this one, I was imaging earlier today I'd make a "let's play" video where I'd walk through a mission while explaining things to people who know nothing about sims - It would at least make them seem less intimidating, I'd think.

SafetyTurtle Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 Frogisis: I would love to see that as a newbie! the more detailed explaining the better.
Eight Ball Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 I'm uploading one right now. It's a normal start up, not rushing it, roughly 5min, EGI alignment on the ground, looking at the activity on the base but not bothering with caution lights test and whatnot Still beats his 26 minutes start up sequence :D We'll see if he accepts it as a video response Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery)
Frogisis Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Frogisis: I would love to see that as a newbie! the more detailed explaining the better. You know what? I think I will. All that was really holding me back was that setting up the recording software sounded like a total chore. Ughhhhhh omg all the things I'd have to click that aren't in a cockpit... Think I'll make a basic mission that shows off the various weapons and how the other elements on the field interact, then fly it from takeoff to landing while talking through what's going on to someone with zero experience, i.e. someone at the level of this Nerd^3 guy. The only DCS "explanatory" videos I've really seen have been either tips & tricks for people who already get it, or jokey "this shit is bananas! I can't even imagine how people do this lol" videos about how opaque and baffling everything is if you're not already initiated, so I think it'd be cool to have one that bridges the two, showing everything being done while still saying "it's not that scary, think of it like using three separate smartphones..." Maybe it'd help sims become 0.006% less niche.

SafetyTurtle Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 I think it would be cool, can't wait to see it!

I think your explained version should be better than mine because its explained ;). Can you post the link? PS.: Here is mine: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
