DCS: P-47D-30 Discussion

[Sydy]

Guys,

 

Bundle is basically 20% off total normal price. Normal price is 49.99x2=99.98. The current price is 39.99, total price 79,98. (still 20% off the total price)

 

If you get the total price 99.98 - 20%, equals the current price of 79,98. So, no need to wait.

 

All the best,

 

Sydy

But what if your trying to save mouse clicks? ;)

[DefaultFace]

The bundle isnt on the store yet, so Im not sure how you can know how much it will be....

[Brigg]

Damn... just bought the P-47... planned on buying the map next paycheck. I wasn’t aware of the bundle. Oh well!

 

Same here. I can wait for the map but not the Jug :)

[Sydy]

Patch is out! 28Gb for me!

[Eldur]

Just bought the map, but still waiting for the download - and the P-47D-30 license in the backer rewards section.

Ahh so it's not just me with that problem, was about to start a thread about the backers key.

 

 

Edit: It's now available if you go into the backers section in your profile.

I will give you Stephen Hawking point device maker phone number...

Yeah, just went there again after my download finished and grabbed the license

[Blooddawn1942]

Downloaded the map, but the modul manager won´t let me download the P-47. There was a way to mannualy dowlnoad modules, wasn´t there?

[panzerd18]

Well Steam Users cannot even buy the new modules.

Allright. It just appeared in the modulmanager:thumbup:

[Blaze]

For anyone that can't download it in the module manager, the update ID for it is P47D30 if you want to run it via command line.

backer rewards is saying "Invalid plane selection" any ideas? Hmm... maybe my 5 aircraft rewards are actually already used? 3 planes + assets pack + Normandy = 5 things ... is that how they are doing it?

 

S!

I did the main patch first then bought the P47 and it worked first time

Should be a button that indicated "Get License" with the P-47 highlighted in backers profile. Issued once I selected. it.:thumbup:

[catchforusthefoxes]

so, what other countries have liveries for the jug?

[Beirut]

I bought the Jug because of the map, but the map still isn't out on Steam!

 

 

But the cockpit in the P-47 is a work of art. Just beautiful.

[GrislyAccord]

Loving it so far! Been strafing trains all day as I get used to the flight model.

Been trying the free play P-47. I enjoy learning it, especially the R-2800, something different from the Merlin. One can boost to 79', engine will break shortly of course. Interesting that there was no guard rail. The pilot must always take care to not exceed 52 w/o water and 64 with water. Still figuring out how to work water injection, I know I'm missing stuff, sometimes it didn't seem to work.

 

Feels a lot heavier than Spit or P-51. Flies like a steam locomotive really. "Don't turn below 130", lol, Spit can  turn at 70 or less. P-51 is a better fighter but that's not the point. So is an F-15. I enjoy learning it. If there was organized scenarios with team work, I'm sure P-47 would be effective as it was in real life. Like F4F vs Zeros.

 

Echoing a player (with real life taildragger experience) about taxiing. A subjective opinion, and nothing more. The inertia while taxiing, the P-47 'feels' intuitively right. I've learned the "videogame" of taxiing the Spitfire, I agree (again subjective opinion without real world experience), perhaps the Spitfire lacks inertia while the P-47 feels right.

 

WW2 training film lauds the wide gear and notes if running out of runway, one can cut the tail wheel lock. hit one wheel break and just spin around. Works great.

 

DCS P-47 rolls at 900 rpm, needs parking brakes. Seems better than DCS P-51 who needs 1200. The real P-51 rolls at 900 rpm (or less) as stated by the guy who explicitly compared it to DCS.

 

Extremely easy to takeoff, but one must remember "steam locomotive" whenever landing. Nice looking cockpit, lots of new clickable systems to learn (the electric propeller), still bugs (minor) but I figure they will be resolved.

Are you going to buy her when the trial ends?

So P47 boosted shouldn’t go above 64” manifold ? Guess that’s why I keep frying engine quickly. Never heard of that in any of the multitude of books .. or the flight manual I have . Just seeing quotes of what the pilots were able to obtain as far as MP using WEP.

Will be looking into

What about if water injection is used? I have only a little time in the P-47 and haven't read the manual yet so I don't know the details yet. But water injection adds double benefit of cooling and extra power, unless I'm mistaken?

64" is the limit with water injection. Without it it's 52".

[Hub]

I keep blowing up the engine when I use it . Less then 30 seconds. I have opened up inter cooler and hasn’t made a difference. Wondering what I am doing wrong ?
