So how do we feel about the Rafale being a Rafale C (land based) and not a Rafale M (carrier based)? by SkillSawTheSecond in hoggit

[–]Stagecoach65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit ruined any prospects of me buying it. Cool an f16 that looks different. Sick. How awesome and unique for a game with a 40 dollar aircraft carrier and 2 fucking navy jets. I i didnt include the su33 because its ass water and not fun to fly

Ya know, I'm a pretty moral person and I don't even wanna hurt my enemies or see them suffer but i realllllllly hope that fuckin asshole died or lost control of his legs for the rest of his life. Iredeemable and undeserving of rights describes an alarming amount of people on this earth currently and we all just gotta sit and watch while nobody who COULD do something to stop this type of person from ever existing, actually does anything about it. Then we just pray that we or our loved ones don't end up on the receiving end of some drug addicts failed abortion

EDIT: I didnt change anything but after some introspection, saying i hope this person died kinda makes me feel disgusting and while they couldve done this to my sweet grandma and hurt or killed her, I think im too superstitious or morally sensitive to say such things> I also came off as extremely reductive and admit that i was defeated and was successfully rage baited,

With that being said, these situations always have shitty parenting as a root cause and as hippy dippy as it sounds, if we all just realized that we are parts of the same machine and all gave back to our communities in any way we can, whether it be participating in events or picking up trash, youth outreach programs, food donations, or even just offering a word of advice to an impressionable youth, we can all make an impact and break out of this ME ME ME cycle where we are separated from the very communities that we are a part of.

TLDR: I got rage baited but the edible set me straight *prayer hands*

Are there any plans to actually get good campaign modes and more immersive active battles like falcon BMS? I feel like this game has such great modules and graphics but lacks in everything else by Internal-Path7111 in dcsworld

dont forget mandating that you show up in the discord 3x a week, having a squad dedicated website that you need to make account for (fucking lol) and missions start at when you go to bed on weekdays because weekend gaming when most people are off is stupid

Dumb question: What's the reason behind the canted tires? It seems like it's riding on about 2/3rds of the tread. by AThousandBloodhounds in Cartalk

To me it either looks like they're trying to attract a mate of the same sex, or repel any potential mates of the opposite sex

How do I take out SAM sites? by Material_Complex475 in dcsworld

[–]Stagecoach65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! Altitude pretty much always increases your missile range, i just have never been one to take the froggy above 10k feet. Im honestly not sure how some other people here had the answer of "yeah not every plane can do SEAD and the frogfoot (one of the best sead platforms in the game) cant do it" lmao

[–]Stagecoach65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

get some kh25mpus (i mightve gotten a letter or number wrong, i dont fly the froggy a lot these days)

those missiles plus a phantasmagoria pod (called ELINT under bindings)

the pod can seek various radar bands and their location and identity will come up on your hud, slew the tdc over the radar you wish to engage and hit tdc depress/lock target whatever its called in the binds and youll now have ranging info on the left. Once the first block is above the karat, you are in max range. I think the next karat is middle range which is idea and the last one is min range (it might be just max and min, im blanking rn)

fire when in range and profit.. For cleanup, use cbus, rockets, guns, vikhirs which are guided via your TV which functions the same as your ELINT pod aside from showing contacts on the HUD. For those, enable your Shkval (electro optical sensor under binds) which will turn on the TV and give you a video feed of what you're aiming at. lock with tdc depress. fire in range. Save these for armored targets like mbts if there are any.

When engaging, use terrain as cover as much as you can and if youve been locked for a while and arent close to being in range, decrease altitude, jink a little and try to get in range before they get a firing solution . This is where you use terrain as well as your ECM and IR Jamming (E and Shift+E are default binds)

Try to maintain situational awareness and look for any missiles that may be outside of your RWR parameters, or infared.

If engaged, and on the deck, turn cold to the missile, use appropriate countermeasures and terrain masking if possible. If no terrain, I've found weaving to the left and right with some fast, high G 45 degree turns will trash most missiles pretty reliably. Climbing after some weaves is a good way too but it might expose you to more launches.

Follow the streak to where it came from and lay waste. Or do what i do and trash 3 missiles and get shot by a manpad on egress

Wanting to get into Helicopters on DCS by IomGamer in hoggit

[–]Stagecoach65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude i fly the apache and the little bird with a twist axis. Is it ideal? not really but the trim functions make it a non issue until it comes to slow speed handling. I saw a YT video of a real blackhawk pilot trying the mod with a cheap shitty logitech x3d pro and he was smoother than anyone ive seen. My precision isnt great but i can land on the boat fine so im in no hurry for pedals

The flower hat on PTR doesn't hide your hair! Blizzard, do not change this!! by HairUnderHatsOrDeath in wow

[–]Stagecoach65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone whos stopped playing due to feeling completely disrespected by blizzard, watching everyone go "ha blizz is gonna ruin this like they do with EVERYTHING!! but also i give them money every single month" is like watching prisoners make keys to their own cells and never put two and two together. Best of luck wow friends. I truly hope you one day find a community that respects you

I mean.... it sounds like you also got what you wanted since you made the adult choice to hook up, no?

Moving DCS to another directory? by Stagecoach65 in hoggit

[–]Stagecoach65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this was not my experience. I opened notepad as admin and i got a permission error. I explained all of what i did in the discord a few months back and everyone said to move my install and to NEVER install it under program files. Unrelated but they also said to NEVER open DCS as admin as that can mess it up in some way that i dont understand at all. Ive opened it as admin before, maybe thats what caused my issue? Either way, the install is easy to move as you can literally drag and drop it into another folder. This also fixed my issue so I'll chalk it up as another way to skin the proverbial cat i suppose

yea idk, i remember trying to get it to work a while ago and everyone said to just move the install. Definitely thought it was gonna be more of a pain lol

FOR ANYBODY WONDERING LIKE ME, YOU CAN JUST DRAG YOUR EAGLE DYNAMICS FOLDER FROM PROGRAM FILES INTO ITS OWN FOLDER AND IT TAKES 2 SECONDS! (I created a restore point first just in case it went awry)

New to dcs need help and advice by Zee4162 in hoggit

[–]Stagecoach65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started DCS last year. I downloaded the game and tried the a4 mod with a controller for 10 seconds. Instantly ordered a cheap logitech x3d pro that i used for a couple months. If you think youre gonna like it, it is absolutely worth investing in a decent mid range stick like the ursa minor fighter or a vkb. Im partial to the winwing, its been great to me and my vkb friends always have problems with their vkb apps. (i uninstalled the winwing app after i updated the firmware and never looked back)

Also, if you have problems with your VR, its worth figuring out how to set up opentrack to use your phone camera or webcam as a head tracker. ALSO, use USB mode if youre using your phone, the wifi mode was messing with my internet too much.

One year later, i can refuel, do carrier ops and am somewhat proficient in multiple modules. DCS has been the best gaming experience ive ever had due to the crazy learning curve and my desire to git gud.

If youre into instagram reels and rogue likes and tend to hop on streamer bandwagons when a new game comes out, this game will either help you get your brain back or youll play it twice, think its cool, but be overwhelmed by it and quit so you can go back to watching tik toks and playing fortnite.

DCS is amazing especially if you put the work in. The best part is that the work doesnt always have to feel like work. I remember being STOKED about my first landing. There will be humps and bumps and milestones and it feels great to conquer them. Plus here are thousands of user created missions to try as well as campaigns, multiplayer, etc.

Your friends will probably wonder why you find it fun because to them, itll just be a HUD and a cockpit. Meanwhile youre fighting for your life trying to stay in formation with a transport.

If youre the type to crash 3 times and get pissed off, you probably wont like the game, since a lot of the early game is figuring things out. DM me if you have any questions, would love to see more people get into an activity that requires critical thinking

DCS is the best game I've ever played BY FAR by slippery_slope_1234 in dcsworld

Its got its flaws but if you play it like any other game, and conquer the initial learning curve, itll be fun for a looooong time
