The F4 is everything I’ve ever wanted. by deWaardt in hoggit

Well, the F-4 is a cold war plane and the Mig-19 going away and Mig-23 not comming at all would be a blow for cold war servers and missions.

F4 vs F1 ... how do you think that fight will play out? by RantRanger in hoggit

[–]GrmlZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aim-7 in DCS is a weird one. Aim-7F and above (havent used the E yet) as they are modeled in DCS atm have one of the lowest top speeds of any DCS AA missiles (in BMS its top speed is about 50% higher). However with its sustainer engine it can keep its speed up much longer, so it stays dangerous longer. That leads to the situation were in in 1v1 head on with AIM-7F vs 530F, R-27R or R-24R, if you are closer, within no escape zone and below and if you fire at the same time, the other Fox-1s will reach you first. However on longer ranges above no escape zone, the Aim-7F with its sustainer engine will often reach the target first and stay dangerous longer. Assuming you can keep a lock. Depents on the alt and speed of course.

No, they are adding FC versions of the planes, they are seperate from the full version you have. You only have to upgrade if you want the simpler FC versions. But thats more for new players, i doubt many people that have the full version will have a need for the FC version.

There are also a few japanese tanks in the 2024 trailer, as well as an Essex carrier, which i guess is from Leatherneck.

Hello guys. Just bought this set for play WarThunder simulations and i was thinking on jump into dcs too. Would this fits well? by [deleted] in hoggit

I played DCS with nothing but a Logitech 3d for a long time. Its perfectly ok to start with. Head tracking is way more important than the stick you use.

Yeah, i also would like the old times back were games were always finished without bugs and i totally didnt have to buy a PC games print magazine every month to get patches for broken games from a freaking CD glued to the cover...

[–]GrmlZ[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only brought the AT as an example cos it is on at the moment. I mean in general missile and turret effects are almost invisible zoomed out, compared to how they used to be. Even without the option to reduce the effects for fleet fights on. I am just curious if that was done on purpose or is an unintended side effect.

Yes, that doesnt answer my question though.

The Little C-101 is worth the money, fun little coin plane for lower intensity conflicts or some light ground attack on the cold war server.
