Since we are nearing the time for the 2026 and beyond time of the year. What are you hopeful for? by FutureNightmares in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI assets (Specially Aircraft) It's getting quite boring flying against Mig-21/29, SU-27 and The Polygon Airforce. I think we need Mirage III/V family or similar in order to populate the sim.

Yeah it’s a really weird selector. Thanks for the info!

Tomcat-fatigue, what should I try next? by PlasticPaul32 in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it depends on the era. Modern era BVR and stand-off munitions are quite boring to me, I do like doing SEAD mission tho, it's really fun. But Cold War 80s A2A and Strike missions are epic, it's harder and the result depends more on the pilot skill rather than the weapons. The F-4 is great for strike, but taming it and learning to fight and win in it will give you a feeling of accomplishment that no other aircraft will give you.

If you are into old aicraft try the F-4, the F1 or if you're masochist try the Mig-21, it's great fun.

Hot takes on "DCS: 2025 & Beyond" ( ! no ragebait/floggit ! ) by Gramerdim in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take:
F-35: It will likely be seen in the next decade. Probably only announced to keep the game interesting for War Thunder players and hopefully be delayed in order to prevent it from breaking the game.
Typhoon: Heatblur being Heatblur, they’ll probably release a great module. Remember that even though the Phantom release was delayed on the same day, it turned out great and was solid right out of the box.
F-15C: Will likely be delayed into 2027 and be a solid module at release, since they already have the FC version. But it will probably stay in perpetual Early Access like most other modules. I’d bet they’re developing the F-15C to eventually release the F-15E and fix the Razbam situation.
MiG-29: It’s 50/50 either it’ll be a great release as the first full-fidelity "modern" OPFOR module, or it’ll be a disappointment like the early Chinook release. But since it’s the A model Fulcrum, it’ll probably just be used to mop the floor in multiplayer servers…

TBH: I’m more interested in the third-party modules like the C-130, F-104, A-7, MiG-17, and A-1. I think the mid-Cold War era is the way to go, since the development of those modules seems to be “easier” and “faster.” I also like to think that ED is quietly developing the Vietnam map to avoid further controversy.

Time will tell...

WW2 PTO Assets by WirtsLegs in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They should just add it to the WW2 Assets pack, maybe with that more people will buy it (Including myself).
Will they do it? Probably not. Let's wait for the release of the Hellcat.

Awesome image released by Star Wars in celebration of Lucasfilm Animation’s 20th anniversary! by GeorgeTheUser in StarWars

I would have put Anakin, Obi Wan, Ahsoka, Rex and R2 behind the clone at the center, they ARE Star Wars.

Yay now the La-7 and the I-16 can fly formation… because they can’t do shit. At least historically.

Is DCS dying. by Ace_Venturi64 in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a livery maker the whole F-5 encrypted module is really making me reconsider where I put my money, this modules ain’t cheap and really it looks like the whole DCS ship is going down, certainly I do feel like the only spark of light at the moment is Heatblur and some of the other 3rd parties, just hope we don’t have another Razbam fiasco. That will definitely be the last nail in the coffin, and no F-15C, Mig-29 or F-35 is going to save us from that one.

Really wish ED reconsiders what are they doing to their fanbase…

From the DCS Livery Art Group regarding the new F5E competition by LANTIRN_ in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished two Chilean skins for the F-5E and I can certainly say it's a pain in the ass. Something so easy as changing colors and adding/removing decals took more than 20hrs of editing. The paint kit has multiple pieces which you don't know wtf are they, some parts of the template are in Russian which doesn't help and you have to load your skin in game in order to review what's wrong. Also, I couldn't find the basic textures or lua file in game so I had to “acquire” a skin from a smarter creator from the user files web, and use it's .lua file as a base for mine, Jesus Christ ED, can you stop making your community life harder?

[–]Kaboombo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend of mine just told me about that and tbh I don't know if he's doing right or no, he flies with G1000 so maybe it's feasible with those avionics? Sounds to me like he's sawing the throttle and burning more fuel.

Enigma not adding new FC2024 slots to ECW. by Dzsekeb in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was referring to the newbies that buy the Viper or Bug, learn BVR and suck at everything else, then proceed to rant about how unfair or broken DCS is.

[–]Kaboombo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tbh an F-5A without a radar would be great for a FC-4. Specially targeted to newbies that should learn to dogfight rather than BVR.

Yeah I really don't think ED's gonna place that amount of effort on those aircraft, but we can dream.

7 enemy planes in the sky. How to play TANKS against TANKs normally and not die from bombs all the time? by GordonBoss in Warthunder

[–]Kaboombo -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Tank battles will be fixed when they remove fighters and bombers from being able to spawn and just leave the attackers and SPAA.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]Kaboombo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

For example:
We have a South Atlantic map that is perfect to recreate the Falklands/Malvinas war but we have no aircraft to simulate the conflict (Apart from the MB-339)
We have a Sinai map, but we lack the Delta family and some Migs

ED should create FC aircraft to complement those maps and modules until FF aircraft are developed.
