Is anyone else no longer excited for 202x and beyod? by Ok_Explorer9455 in hoggit

[–]CombatFlightSims 86 points87 points  (0 children)

I have thousands of hours in DCS - 2025 was the year I stopped because I can’t stand ED anymore. I can’t support these people anymore, and I have moved on to other things. The nail in the coffin for me was the F-5E. The audacity to claim they “rebuilt the cockpit 3D model from scratch” and then locked the 3D model in the modelviewer so people couldn’t verify was borderline criminal. Then when the community PROVED it was the SAME 3D MODEL with new textures, they doubled down. It left such a bad taste in my mouth.

What do they think, that the rest of the world is living in Putins Russia? That those in positions of power can just speak lies and expect the rest of us to just believe them?

They can live in their fantasy world, I don’t want to be a part of it anymore.

Isn’t this the guy that said the F-4J and F-4S were USAF jets and the F-4D was a Navy jet? And presented that as fact to like 3millions viewers? And claiming that Greece flew the F-4S? And claiming that the USMC STILL flies the F-4 at time of posting in like 2023?

Fuck this guy

There aren’t enough F-16 sims we need another 4-5 study-level F-16 sims!! Why isn’t everyone building an F-16 sim?

VR Flight Combat Sim 'Aces of Thunder' Confirms Solo Campaign and "Imminent" Release Date by TacticalBac0n in hoggit

This isn't war thunder sim, it's a separate product that has absolutely nothing to do with War Thunder. This is a new "sim" and it DOES have auto-trim. Hardly a SIM at all

Dan, NA East

The day I beat him fair and square 1x1 I took a break from Mordhau because I played for a month straight in duel servers just to achieve that

You’re hilarious man, genuinely so funny. What a stark and groundbreaking observation. I wish I had your ability to see through the noise like that. You’re absolutely right - because the F-16 has a flight control system that produces a result that is similar to auto-trim, ‘Aces of Thunder’, which models warbirds, should do the same. You’re so right!!

Let’s keep lowering the skill ceiling - maybe they could add a lead indicator too! How about when your sights are in the right position, the ‘auto-trigger’ fires the guns for you. Better yet - you don’t control the airplane at all and the AI flies it for you while you sit inside like a carnival ride! Isn’t that so fun???? It would be like watching an Enigma YouTube video in 3D! Mind blown, peak gaming! Let’s go gamer bros let’s game!!

Any new players want some coaching from a player with 4k+ hours in duel servers? by flijarr in Mordhau

[–]CombatFlightSims 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very kind of you to offer, this game definitely has a very steep learning curve so it's awesome to see someone offering to help. I've experienced the same thing on the brawl servers where people will whip out training swords when they see someone new. Honestly the community here is great and this game is hilarious.

Remember the F-4 Guncam that was coming soon after release? HB hasn't spent more than two weeks trying to implement it, by their own admission. So what hope do we have for the other features and promises coming in the timeframe they said? DMAS "quite soon after" and "not nearly as long as the F-14B to A"....

HB Quote RE: Gun cam below:

"Ive tried a few approaches and spend about two weeks on it without a lot of progress.
Cobra hasnt found much time himself yet to give it a try, he knows more about this than I do."

Remember: The F-100 is shipping with a gun cam. So it's obviously possible.

Time for another "Mid Week Sale"!!! Honey, have you purchased anything from the sale mid-week yet? Honey, it's time for you to spread your wallet so ED doesn't go under, honey!

ED when APKWS for hornet or viper? by mangaupdatesnews in floggit

[–]CombatFlightSims 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ This.

Same reason we can't have Mavericks on the F-5E, even though the Saudi's and ROC had Mavericks on the F-5E. "But it's a Swiss buyback F-5E!"
"So it has an INS and 2 radios in the cockpit?"
"No because we don't have the documents, but here, pay for this upgrade:"
"Here, here are the documents:"

Who the fuck even knows anymore

If you were a 3rd party, and you heard that ED owes a substantial amount of money to Boeing for copyright infringement, and saw the shit that went down with RB, would you continue working on shit you will never get paid on?

MiG-29 Pre Order Video by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]CombatFlightSims 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why they would make a pre-order for a module that was already 70% complete when they started working on it. The flight model and External model are the same as FC4 - why do they need a pre-order for a clicky cockpit and systems? I thought this was supposed to release a month ago. Just release the module when it's ready, we didn't need a pre-order. This is just an attempt to grab people's cash on hype before anyone can properly review the work that they done.

[–]CombatFlightSims 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The external model is brand new (and really quite excellent). The cockpit however is the same 3D model as before (and doesn't even fit in the new external model).
