War Thunder

BMS ops WHEN

Why would one carry 3 R-73s instead of 4?

Whats better silent hunter 3 with mods or silent hunter 4 with the mod for a german campaign?

Silent Hunter 3 with even more mods.

>tfw BMS ops always happen late at night in my timezone


I wish earth was a flat plane

Craig , your baits are getting more and more pathetic.

Silent Hunter 4 with RFB or Silent Hunter 3 with NYGM and all of the hardcoded fixes and MaGUI. I can't say anything about the german mod for SH4 as I never played that, it seems to have a good reputation though.

In general you can expect SH4 to be much more TECHNLOGY than SH3, but SH4 is also easier.

What.

are there any good WWII naval sims floating around?

I played destroyer command way back in the day and that was pretty cool but I can't get it to run on my current PC

>/wtg/ being retarded

Just pretend you didn't see anything

Silent Hunter 3 and 4, and you need to mod them. Or WITP, but that's a wargame. Or the Warship Gunner series if you want to vent on some arcade shit.

Does it have to be WW2? Otherwise Dangerous Waters

>Dangerous Waters

OPS WHEN

What are they made our games are more meme then theirs?

Eh, DW is mostly an anti-submarine warfare game when it comes down to it.

Flying ASW ops in the P-3 is cool, though.

>MAD, MAD, MAD!

MAD MAD MAD!
>confidence: low

I can never remember which buoys to drop when, it's fucking insane. Like, is it a VLAD here, or a DICASS there?

Pretty much never VLAD. Unless you're playing int he mid atlantic

...

I'm not the only one who adores doing ground attack in the MiG, am I

I dunno, I just love the idea of this stubby-winged interceptor rolling in with rockets on insurgents and shit.

Too bad external sounds on the MiG are broken

Who has more drag: Your average american or Russian missiles at low altitude.

Russian.

>tfw 8 pyloned mig never

Is there something like World of Warships but more simulator like?

No.

There was this WW1 Dreadnought "game".

It's got a working Dumaresq and an early variant of the Fire Control Table.

Pretty sure it's only a proof of concept for the programmers own enjoyment though. That was the closest I've ever seen to what you want.

Mmmmmmaybe Atlantic Fleet.

...

Verdun welcome here?

What does it even simulate?

COD WW1

Does it have autism tier weapons modeling?
Does the gun jam because of dirt?
Does it even model the coriolis effect for no good reason?

ban DCS WHEN

>Starway also made new textures compatible with an updated terrain mesh T4 Caucasus map... Just give the man 3k ED you massive Jews, you're going to have to pay one of your own guys to redo the textures eventually anyway.

>Babby Cliffs players want to play a realistic air campaign
>they don't want realistic missiles and cry balance
I don't even

Kill yourself :^)

>he wants to be nickel and dimed by a dev that can't even be assed to pay for work they contracted a guy to do

3 thousand dollars is nothing to ED, they spend hundreds of thousands on each flight model alone.

I just laugh at them for their incompetence, and that particular cuck's stupidity.

>realistic air campaign

where?

Fuck off Ivan

forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2789866&postcount=169

I don't even. From where do these people come from?

Nothing wrong with it. It's absolute bullshit that the Su-27 doesn't have its datalink, even though it's available in game.

>Su-27 has p2p datalink in SP, it doesn't work in MP, because hurr durr, AWACS datalink broken for years
>Also has no TTI counter even though the manual clearly shows it has one.

This is all somehow ok.

I've seen servers where the Su-27 datalink (kind of) works.

The 104th used to have a GCI MP mission where enemy contacts appeared on the MFD/HDD, and anyone flying an Su-27 had a field day killing F-15s

when there's an EWR or AWACS it shows up, but it starts having ghost contacts after some time, which is just fucking annoying to no end.
But in SP, you don't need an AWACS or EWR, all Su-27s in your group share what they see with their radar, of course it'd be too much work for ED to add it to MP.

Ban Mirage.

looks like desync

This is why you use leavu while it still works.

Shouldn't even the F-15C have a datalink as well as the MiG-29S?

The mirage can take a stupid amount of missiles and still fly, razbam really need to make it so the plane isn't built out of unobtainium

F-15C (the one in DCS) is a huge maybe going on whats available on the internet, mig29 has a weird one, with a GCI controller, that we'll never get in DCS anyway.

I just want to know -WHERE- it fucking says that the MiG-29's HDD doesn't have the same capabilities as the Su-27's.

All I remember seeing is some guy saying "oh no the MiG-29 does not have an MFD it's just and HDD" and ED said "ok tovarish will implement ))))))))))))))"

IDK user, take a look at airwar.ru and find the manual there.

I'm done with this fucking community.

DCS forum cucks are the worst of any game/sim I've ever played.

Just bought il2 sturmovik 1946 on steam, I'm trying to play it with my thrustmaster hotas x but I can't even kill a stationary tank, every time I try to aim my plane bounces from side to side, any advice?

The F-15C modelled ingame was not updated with datalinks until after 2004, when it got some other MFDs and shit put in as well I think.

The F-15C ingame is from the mid-90s and shouldn't have that shit.

what the fuck is that retard saying

He's saying that Buddy Spike should ban people for complaining about ED's shit-tastic netcode, implicitly.

Stop being shit.

This

The issue is that it shares with all other Su-27's in your group, but you can't put multiple players in the same group for whatever reason. If they changed that the problem would be at least partially fixed.

you can put players in the same group now, it still doesn't work though.

Are you telling me to go rummage through a manual in russian to find this info?

I don't know russian, m8

>i don't know how recognize pictures

well user.

if I could find my way to the fucking manual I would

I have a 4-year degree in the fucking language and the vocabulary used in those manuals is still mostly incomprehensible to me.

I just found 2 manuals on the said website, they consist of roughly 250~ jpgs of pages.

A bunch of them carry HUD symbology, no mention of an HDD/MFD though. Hell one of the manuals is literally just pictures of patterns for landing and shit

Would you play game like Warthunder (RB and SB) focused only on jets?

I dream of a Cold War Thunder, but not made by Gaijin.

Only if the RB doesn't have enemy markers (but has friendly markers or not even) like in ground forces.
And if SB isn't EC only

There is a fleet-level simulation game called Rule the Waves which takes place between 1900-1925

It's kind of a hybrid sim/grand strategy game, the graphics are turbotax 1994-tier but you get to design your own ships and it's a lot of fun if you're into naval history

>he play Dangerous waters the bms of sub warfare.
Wew
Multi crew ops when?

Post lewds.

I wonder if the multi-crew craft in DCS can be used with multiple players.

DW ops when?

...

...

...

Wouldn't that make the best camouflage be painting it like tarmac?

Whenever I touch sensors other than the camera [and even sometimes then] in the P3 I get all kinds of bullshit readings.

>tfw I'll never get a game where all I have to do is pilot the plane while other people do the cool stuff.

...

Tbh this bug has happened with the 29, 27, 21, 15, and m2000.
You would think that after five times they would learn a lesson.

>buddyspike thread on ed forums


jesus, i'm glad i've given up on this shit.

To be fair, Razbam isn't ED but ED should've told them what to do so their shit isn't broken. ED seems to stay fairly distant from the third party devs and don't seem to ever help at all with anything other than providing APIs.

Godsplane inbound to shit the thread up even more.

...

That looks a lot like Aurora.

In some ways, but it's also real-time and not the micromanagement mess that aurora is

I guess it's more like Harpoon with guns

So this just came in the mail today.

Imma just leave this here.

Anyone else find the dash 34 description of the ASEC and ASC really confusing? I don't know why they didn't include pictures.

Yeah, that was the original concept for the Eagle.

How do they even track?

Configure properly your joystick and step on the ball, especially for ground attack.

There's a little radar on the copilot's seat.

But where's the emitter?

On the roof.
