I can't do it anymore...!

[Steel Jaw]

I loved the Hawg, the hardcoreness, the weapons modelling, the avionics.

 

But I cannot deal with the underpowered-ness of that jet any longer.

 

FC3 aint giving me my needed hardcore fix.

 

PLEASE let's rock and roll and the next hardcore DCS Fast Mover.

 

Right, carry on.

 

:thumbup:

[sorcer3r]

I would say the A-10 is well-powered for CAS.

 

Anyway ,maybe we will see the Mig-21 already in Q2 2013.

[Steel Jaw]

Hmm, okay, clarification: F15c or (preferably) F/A18. No MiG21 please.

[sorcer3r]

You can not stop the mig-21 :p

[Steel Jaw]

My AMRAAM can. :-P :-P

What's that Mower? MiG 21 TO hardcore for you?:D

[Lord_Pyro]

He just want a sophiticated, modern supersonicjet and he's not alone with that wish ;)

 

Mig21 will be nice to play with but to actually work together with the A10c we need a way more modern aircraft, capable of datalink, radar high situational awareness, we need F15, F16 or F/A18 :)

Yep. Hardcore too please.

[Frogisis]

You and me both. I still haven't *mastered* the A-10 or made much of a dent in the Shark, though, so I'm solid for a while. But I am fiending to shoot AMRAAMs from something that doesn't feel like it's on rails.

 

I might suggest the Mustang. It's not a crazy-fast modern jet, but it feels much, much zippier than the Hog. And those .50s sound just as baller as the GAU in their own way. With a little suspension of disbelief you can use the more "basic" ground units to stand in for their WWII antecedents, too.

 

New terrain would make it all feel fresh, though. I am actually getting nostalgic for places in Georgia I have never been to: A couple months ago I overheard a guy at a bar telling a buddy about Falcon BMS, and when I asked if he'd ever played DCS I got all gooey inside when he talked about flying out of Batumi.

Nothing more boring then a fastmover with a load of missiles to waste from 20nm away.

[Steel Jaw]

I have thought about the P51 but know I wont fly it in the long run so why spend the $$, only $10 that it is.

[Lange_666]

You could give it a shot to kill the time between now and the release of the F-XX which still might take a year or 2 before you can lay your hands on it.

And what's 10$ spread over 2 years? Look at it as a community support...

[159th_Viper]

It'll take you at least a year to master the P-51 and become combat-proficient :gun_rifle:

[SkateZilla]

took me 40 minutes :)

nuff said ;)

[Steel Jaw]

Side question cause Im too lazy to search:

 

Anyone know how to adjust the throttle detents in DCSW, in particular for the FC3 jets?

 

Thanks.

[Eddie]

Change the axis curves.

[Cali]

I was gonna say "you must be a late bloomer" I'm sure it wouldn't take me that long. It would take more then 40 minutes for me.

[Cookie]

I would say there is no such thing as "overpowered" when it comes to combat aircraft. :D

[IonicRipper]

If you got any experience with WWII planes it shouldn't take much longer.

I successfully landed mine on the first try without reading the manual or doing the training missions thanks to IL-2 Sturmovik.

*cocky mode off*

[Evil.Bonsai]

I wish others (not me) would feel like that when I'm flying my Hawg and there are about 5 fast movers on the other side. I HATE being shot down just after I turned for my first wp after takeoff, level wings to start climbing then BOOM.

The F/A-18 Superbug by VRS is fun and there are a couple crack squads to fly it with in FSX, every bit as demanding as the A-10C. Though I do prefer the DCS platform as to simulated realism over FSX. Landing the Superbug on the FSX aircraft carrier, set in full realism, is not an easy task.

When DCS gets the F-18 I will purchase the beta.

The 104th's A2G only server has no fighter jets on it.

 

Though their A2A "mixed" server is more fun trying to dodge the fighters by, hopefully, stealth tactics, at least in my copter.

 

If you fly the ingress pre-planned route, the enemy probably also has flown your side in the Hawg, so they know the route, too. Do not be predictable!

 

With FC3 mixed in, sorties really need a mixed bag---squad oriented, so you need to have guys flying air cover for you.

Logged 99 traps now in vLSO since Dec, only 18% were OK passes... :D

 

Unfortunately, hardcore or not, there still aint no REAL tactical combat simulated. Yet. We have to wait and see what the SDK and FSX@War can do. Of course they don't want to hear this over at the VRS forums. Banging on that drum has earned a threat of banning.

Yeah, tasted the forbidden fruit with FC3, but also dying for hardcore DCS AFM, clickable cockpit, fully decked-out and modeled systems of Fast Mover.

 

I gotta say though, sometimes it is nice to hop back into the A-10C and just maul stuff on the ground.... I just make missions where it's a very short hop to get to the targets and I start airborne now! :) Stupid fighters... stupid gobs and gobs of full a/b!!!

 

I feel the need! The need for speed!!

 

Good news is I've been able to learn a thing or two about fighter operations from FC3 in the interim.
