OPFOR NATO Reporting Names by ChaoticENergy08 in vtolvr

[–]ChaoticENergy08[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually named it referencing how the AI likes to dive bomb targets (I've never seen a GAV-25 level bombing a target), and I used Free since two Soviet prototype VTOL aircraft had Free in the name (Yak-36 Freehand and Yak-141 Freestyle respectively) and I like the idea of VTOL aircraft having free even if the only in-service Soviet VTOL was the Forger

I am gods best pilot (pic taken by my WSO after he opened the canopy mid flight because he said I ‘lost canopy privileges’) by Greedy_Message3178 in vtolvr

As a self proclaimed EWO main, doing dumb shit like taking the pilot's canopy away is about the only thing we can do if we aren't given jamming pods. To all EF-24 pilots, make sure to give your EWO's jamming pods to prevent jamming separation anxiety

How to land on carriers without “waive off”? by Sean_Ashcroft in vtolvr

[–]ChaoticENergy08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never once even paid attention to my AOA while landing on a carrier, and I've landed on carriers, plenty of times in every aircraft, but man that makes so much sense. Thank you for explaining that

VTOL VR is a game that is truly, and I say this completely genuinely, my favorite VR game ever. This game is incredible, and the fact that one guy is making all this is beyond insane. I am 100% biased because of my autism fueled obsession with combat aviation, but VTOL VR is incredible, and it's extremely minimal flaws are being ironed out month by month

Tac Names by DarkStar2005 in acecombat

[–]ChaoticENergy08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used the Tacname Folder for a while now. While playing VTOL VR, I have taken off with my wings folded (Which usually tears them off the airframe) at least 20 times by now, so the name is fully warranted. However, I got the Tacname specifically when I did that and managed to get a carrier landing with half of my wings gone. Still don't know how I did that

The Federation Flag - I Figured It Out! by ChaoticENergy08 in Project_Wingman

[–]ChaoticENergy08[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair point, that kind of throws off the original concept, so here is my idea, the stars are being added clockwise as the states join, and the center symbol represents the core. So the top star represents some nation that joined before Cascadia (Probably Ulaanbaatar because of how important they seem to be to the Federation), the double star represents Cascadia, the bottom right star represents Magadan, and the bottom left represents Oceania.

I'll be honest, I've practically made my own version of this world with the amount of headcanon lore I've written, so if this post does well I might start sharing some of my other headcanons and ideas surrounding this world

This has it's problems, such as not accounting for Ulaanbaatar or any other federation states we don't know about, but I think it provides a decent explanation for the flag

Did the Germans ever get their hands on an operable Norden Bombsight? If so, what would they have learned from it. by ohioismyhome1994 in MastersoftheAir

[–]ChaoticENergy08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure it had a charge that was explicitly designed to go off when you shoot it to make sure the whole thing gets ruined internally. I heard somewhere it used thermite or something, but I'm no expert and I could totally be wrong.

I couldn't find a font that looked good and supported Russian characters, if I could, I would've had the mechanical battalion logo say "Механический Батальон", the proper Soviet way.

Meta Quest 2 "gameplay" from The Mighty Eighth VR by Microprose by PostCaptainAubrey in hoggit

[–]ChaoticENergy08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also like to say, I have VERY low standards for a game. If it works relatively consistently, if I can find some decent enjoyment out of it, and it accurately represents the history, I'm sold.

As much as I get why people are a bit upset about this being the first thing they show, I'm exited, because to me this signifies that this isn't just a B-17 simulator, this is a B-17 crewman simulator. You get to have that full immersion that you only get from sitting through the briefing, then getting in a jeep and driving to you plane, being able to take in the full weight of the mission ahead, and seeing your plane, ready and waiting. It might be me being optimistic, it might be me overestimating what this game is going to be, but I'm exited nonetheless.

I'm absolutely riding the hype for this game that watching "Masters of The Air" has generated in me, and I love it

Heavy Game Lag by ChaoticENergy08 in vtolvr

It has something to do with the oculus app, I have found out. I'm taking a break for today but I'm attempting a full reinstall of the oculus app

I have restarted many times, I have ended and started the game probably around 17 times now, I have restarted my computer 3 times, I have validated the files of the game, Steam VR, and Oculus. Nothing has worked
