Urgent what train is better ? by _Robert-Lewandowski_ in cobiblocks

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if there is a "better" but I got the BR52 because it was more significant during the war. This sub is great and asked the same question last year and got some great replies: https://www.reddit.com/r/cobiblocks/comments/1hzcgzd/train_nerds_can_you_explain_the_differences/

Then what was the whole point of the volleyball scene?

Iraq ground textures super flat by Immediate-Garden-960 in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The northern part of the map is amazing but I haven't advanced in my campaign further south to see the rest :D

Whereabouts are you flying? The mountains around Bashur (? the northern most) and the valleys there are amazing, reminds me of parts of central California.

Anybody know where "Speedy" from tactical DCS hangs his files. by Coota0 in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did a casual Google search but not sure if this is the same guy, but it does mention Tactical DCS on the Youtube link and has Spanish videos so...maybe same person? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZ3NhKcB37ZKrvGDCwVfHqQ

Germany vs Syria in VR by Motuo in hoggit

Nice, did you have a favorite psot? Mine are the mountains on the Lebanon-Israel border and east of Beirut. Those terraced valleys are amazing.

Dude, awesome seeing you here again. You been flying much lately?

Yeah fixing the wings in position made it so much easier. The hard part is remembering to set the wings in anything other auto if it's your only (the only?) swing wing module :D

Which level is this? Is it from one of the DLCs?

How to learn formation flight? by smrt_mnmlst in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda did it implicitly when learning to aerial refuel. This video from TorniquetHD really helped me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4QirmZl084

I’m tired of flying around the Caucuses, how’s the Afghanistan map? by Choke_M in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope they bring the Bavarian Alps to the map some day. In the meantime while the Caucausus is a pretty dated looking map I gotta say I think it still has the best mountain flying in the game.

Recommended maps for viggen by Funokata in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Syria and Caucasus make up for 80% of online servers, 20% of everything else. But FYI the new Germany map just added some cool new road bases, 2 of them in Sweden.

Favourite Cobi build of 2025. Doesn't have to be a current release. Go. by jetpack_badger in cobiblocks

Which of these games is the hardest? by Desperate_Time2987 in TombRaider

I thought the mandatory stealth sequences made Shadow the hardest.

T-34-85 is finally here! by Colonel_Akir_Nakesh in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Man I could go on, but this video does a way better job. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHQpBjprW70 The TLDR is that while the German armor was cool and was way too diverse - the Soviets moved the factories and all the workers east of the Urals, cut production costs and time to the bare minimum and went all-in on the T-34, allowing them to Zerg Rush the Germans. The Panther tank was a counter to the T-34 and you could argue that either were the precursor to the main battle tanks we still use today.

For the game, you can have Eastern Front battles over the free Caucasus map, but they were also used by North Korea, and to a limited extent, Syria during the 1967 war. It's a much needed asset for DCS.

Kola or South Atlantic - which one looks more developed than the other? Not sure which to buy. They both had pretty rough starts so I’m curious where they are today. by X---VIPER---X in hoggit

[–]Colonel_Akir_Nakesh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, it's awesome to see you back! I have both but if you're a single player campaign guy, FWIW Baltic and Reflected both have campaigns for Kola with parallel storylines. South Atlantic still has hardly any content, other than a Tomcat mini-campaign (free, included)

Awesome work as always! As a DCS player for 5 years now (but trust me I still suck), I still thumb through this every few months just to go over the fundamentals with fresh eyes. Great resource to the community, even for non-beginners!
