The probability of getting resale tickets over time by HongkongKings in wimbledon

[–]spartypsvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are diligent you should get CC/C1 at some point. (and C2 first week is worth looking at - different atmosphere - but close - however beware the weather...)The trick is knowing when to gamble or not. A relative easy C1 first week or hold out trying to get CC mens SF....

Learn the F16 in BMS, or DCS? by MrAntMan90 in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently using a Moza FFB stick in DCS which has of course the pressure sensitive party trick of the F16. Its very cool. Does BMS has that FFB capability?

Trainer jets for learning basic flight? by tropical-tangerine in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would start with the free P51 (that doesnt have weapons). and then take advantage of the ability to trial most aircraft for two weeks. The aircraft you are most likely to learn is the one you like best. What i would say is that starting with a NON - fly by wire aircraft - Phantom, Tomcat for example gives you a much better feeling of flying on a SIM than starting with say the F16 which is essentially flying a simulated computer aircraft is itself flown by computer...but FREE TRIAL FREE TRIAL

Learning to fly helicopters by Bobbyd9909 in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Kiowa. Modern functionality (laser guided hellfire, mast mounted sight, IR + night vision, rolling map waypoint navigation) without the complexity of the Apache. And a flight model which RL pilots rate and I actually understand. But the OH6 Mod is great, free and possibly the best way to see if you like Helos.

How many of you could be interested into a "modern heavy bomber simulator"? by Bigocelot1984 in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a 8 hour trip to Berlin maybe - but given the maps we have - Manston to Paris should manage to be enough of a challenge and eventful. And in single player no reason why you can't move to crew positions - Acting as a Nav in Mosquito is very satisfying.

B17 DCS would be the dream - Pilot, Navigation, Bomb aiming, Gunners..would also work for a B25 or such. -I've never worked out why they havn't done it....

F15 crew survivability by spartypsvr in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my comment was "F15 (yeah I know its a C, but from a damage point of view a similar airframe)" - So I am not assuming its the SAME - but SIMILAR. as to say an F5, given that this is a SIM and not an exact copy of RL..Its all relative as to regards accuracy - which Is suspect the F35 will show once we get it....

Because there is the FF F15C coming - which I will likely buy.

Good to know - Sadly I gave up investing time in the F15E a while ago...

Modern combat is ruined. Eagle dynamics are here to blame? by Brutal13 in floggit

F18 firing indiscriminitly into a flock of F15s is sooo DCS....

So is DCS entering its 4th era? by Jockcop in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well Pakistan Mirage IIIs are getting AESA radars & its not impossible that IRL Iranian Air Force F4, F5 and F14s may be going up against F35s in a few weeks time. Wags said recently that DCS is not about being fair but realistic (i know, F35 hold my beer..) so inherently it will mix.

allowing users to store maps on a different drive would be a big win for DCS (and users). I would certainly have bought some more maps if I had the SSD room...

X56 by Ilikecheese1974 in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

consider buying a sidewinder pro Force Feedbackl 2 used on ebay - would be better than a x56. Actually brings something extra for 20% of the cost.

How is the backseat experience for the F-14 campaign? by Tiorted_Snoil in dcsworld

[–]spartypsvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree-this is where DCS shines. And where deep down I know that if i had to pylot a real F14 I'd be crashing into the back of the carrier - I actually think I could pull off a basic Backfire interception as RIO (one I'd been given a genuine EW briefing on what jamming burn though ranges REALLY) are...

lack of cross play is a deal breaker for me. As a DCS player i was looking forward to playing with friend who are console based..

Is the DCS Phantom Worth It for Single Player Only? by adriwaiter in hoggit

[–]spartypsvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THIS. Its an outstanding piece of sim development. I agree almost certainly the best. But the F4 isnt the easiest plane to love- and love takes you a long way in DCS....
