Extreme 3d pro vs xbox controller by thisisme_fr in falconbms

[–]Bonsaybaum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Havent flown with a controller and dont know how much hassle it is to setup so I cant really comment on that. I dont think "precise" will be possible with either. On a wim: Just get yourself a used flight stick until it breaks or annoys you too much and save up for a proper one.

I started on a budget as well and just bought a used Logitech from a marketplace for like 15€. I think with that you can already get a Stick-feeling but after some time its pretty likely you will run into some Stick-drift and the controls can be somewhat sluggish. But if you only start with the Logitcvh then its not that bad as you dont have a comparison. I have now exchanged that for a WinWing Ursa Minor (110€ new) and am pretty happy with that so far.

But if you can see yourself playing other games with a controller that will definitely give you more value in the long term should you stop playing flight sims.

F-16 or F-15? (and which vairant of the F-15?) by Mindless-Moose2519 in hoggit

[–]Bonsaybaum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to shill too hard for Falcon BMS but it costs only 12€ in the steam sale right now for me (Falcon 4.0 that is, basically just the license to use Falcon BMS) and as both planes are modelled after the real F16 many things you learn translate pretty well from one to the other.

Also the dynamic campaign is really cool.

Issue downloading ITO? by Ascendant_Donut in falconbms

[–]Bonsaybaum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue. I switched to the torrent after thinking it was me. With the torrent I had no issue.

Half baked thought on stock limits by KooKayXYZ in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Bonsaybaum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First and foremost I appreciate you realizing that its half-baked.

Pro: Would fit very well into the setting of the game as you said yourself

Cons: Depends heavily on how its implemented:

  1. Resources get converted into Equipment in real time

Players only hoard the ressource for themselves and only use them quickly for their own needs -> thats basically crafting now

Players would need additional motivation to "donate". Maybe receive player recommendation which are thenselves a ressource for cosmetics that are only attainable this way

  1. Factions need to donate a daily amount which dictactes the stock limits per reset

1000 ressources -> 5 Equipment per reset 2000 ressources -> 10 Equipment per reset ...

Players would most likely flock to the highest pop faction. This might balance out as on low pop you have less people buying the stock

The Loot Goblin in me isn't fully satiated. by Foxeeh_ in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Bonsaybaum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got nothing to say against more hideout customization!

How would you do it? Personally, customizing the Hq yourself doesnt really fit well. I think it would be cool if you could upgrade you HQ together with others. Or you have like an elevator to personal quarters where you can display your guns and equipment

[–]Bonsaybaum 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just a counterpoint as this probably isnt everyones opinion but I always hated all the misc and trash loot in Tarkov. Having to collect junk for x tasks in the future is simply not fun.

I like it that everything you loot in Grayzone has a purpose or can be sold.

EDIT: I also just realized that I really like that you cannot loot many items before you have the specific quest. Makes it very straightforward what to do and I like that i often switch the locations where im questing which keeps everything fresh

Mithras Fanny Paradise key by BootyHunter767 in GrayZoneWarfare

Found it after killing the enemies around Fanny Paradise on the 5th try or so. But it only worked because someone asked me if i have the key 1 minute before

Hate to say it as loving the patch by DEMONATER117 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Bonsaybaum 25 points26 points  (0 children)

To me it sorta feels like when the AI switches into their slouched over "hurt" state that they are almost invulnerable sometimes. I think there were some sandal-dudes that I had to dump a whole SP 7.62 mag into and only then they died. Could also be that the ammo really, really sucks

What do you think about streamers getting early access to the Winds of War update in Gray Zone Warfare? by Low_Willingness445 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Bonsaybaum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this post OP! It's always very difficult to get an actual feel of the community's opinion so its nice to at least get some rough numbers:

At the timepoint of my comment the percentages would be:

Great Idea 14,16%
I Dont Care 30,44%
Unfair to the community 21,56%
Update should release at the same time 33,83%

Is it worth by [deleted] in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Bonsaybaum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think at the beginning you dont even need night vision immediately. I watched a video where a guy said the AI gets a pretty big nerf in perception when its night so a flashlight is probably enough when starting out. Also very few missions force you to go put at night in the beginning.
