They did a pretty good job with the 29A it looks like pure sex.

If you don't think bears are the most aesthetic thing you can get the fuck out of my face, cyka.

If you don't use the following skin for your Su-27, consider suicide.

Best plane.

rotary wing supremacy

Sukhoi wondered, "What would literal sex look like in aeronautical form?"

Thus, the Su-27 Flanker was born.

...

Y'know what pisses me off every time I see that?

Look at how fucking accurate that tracer fire is. Compare that to the accuracy of autocannons and machine guns in DCS.

How would they see you with power on?

Wingman took off and killed a enemy kub site that happened to be right next to us

Entire enemy team saw the tracers and I was too dumb to bug out afterward

I'm sorry friendo :c

At least I removed that enemy Kub.

What's the best way to practice combat flying in a fighter in DCS? Make up my own scenarios, dl some user's scenario, etc

make me Top Gun, user

Read and watch Art of the Kill.

Practice. Join up with some people instead of play on your own, there's lots of groups that teach as well as ops.

I was actually watching it a few minutes ago

Yeah but if I join up what if I have to wing with a fuckin furry

Then wing with a fuckin furry. If the heresimeter reads greater than 40% then shoot it down before disconnecting and finding another group.

It is.

What the fuck is this with all the commie lovers in this thread? Go to 2ch.hk and jerk each other off there, they are fucking ugly.

>Commie lovers
No, friend. Slavboos

I'm a slav, and I hate slav planes.

Slav =/= slavaboo

I know that, but slav planes don't look good to everyone.

That's alright a lot of people here like them, however.

get out

But I joined cause I like furry.

will having mistrals make the memezelle useful at all you guys think?

is everything a meme to you?

The Gazelle will honestly never be SUPER useful in DCS just because of the way missions usually go. Doing recce is never really important, no mission will ever really involve attacking ground troops in a manner that wouldn't be suicidal for the SA342L.

sure, why not

I was thinking it may be able to serve some sort of niche role being the only DCS heli with actual a2a capabilities, but ya I know what you mean

The gazelle might start being useful when people start making missions which involve having a recon element. Something which has been missing for quite awhile now.

>implying you need to do anything for Ivan to ban/kick/globally-mute you

You should know better.

I know I'm just taking the bait, but what the hell are you on about?

Su-33 is probe and drogue, which is something that's not even in BMS. Mirage is the only full DCS plane that does it, but right now it's a nightmare because the tanker is constantly changing speed last time I checked.

F-15C and both A-10s I find are significantly more difficult to refuel than the F-16 in BMS. They're very, very touchy whereas in BMS once you make contact the plane seems to stabilize and holding position is extremely easy. You've also got a much easier to read light system to guide you in holding position.

I'm still not exactly sure what you're trying to say, if anything. All I'm saying is that refueling in BMS is easier than DCS and that's not a minority opinion. Supposedly BMS is more in line with how easy it "should" be but that's anecdotal as far as I know.

I can't really talk about probe and drogue because I know less about that and don't do it much in DCS because it's kind of broken on the Mirage. Even if it worked perfectly fine, it's apples to oranges. There's some interesting posts on F-16.net where a Hornet driver talks about it and the F-16 guys compare notes.

There are plenty of aircraft that are only useful in appropriate missions, it's just a shame that there's a pervasive 104th style attitude that any mission where the player can't fly whatever they want is bad.

Some of the best modules are even less 'killy' than the Gazelle, Huey & Hip in particular.

...

To which patch do you have to revert to try Mig-21 demo?

HOLY FUCK I HATE TRYING TO POST THINGS RIGHT AS THE MAINTENANCE OR WHATEVER THE FUCK IT IS STARTS

Anyway, yeah- the Hip and the Huey are rad as fuck, but they can do something much more useful in DCS than the Gazlel can- that is, transport. Even if you're a masochist and use the vanilla mission editor features, you can make missions wherein a Huey or a Hip moves soldiers around, soldiers who will then go on to kill things and accomplish objectives. You can sling load things, which can also be used by mission editors for objective stuff. With user scripts, this goes much further, with various vehicles and SAMs and shit being able to be deployed and to have a major impact on a battle.

Meanwhile, the Gazelle's main thing is recon, which as far as I'm aware isn't supported at all by the mission editor or through user-made scripts. So this means you can't really do recon in singleplayer missions. In multiplayer, you might be able to do some neat stuff like acting as an airborne forward observer for a combined arms player directing artillery fire, or as an AFAC for strike aircraft, but that's hampered by the fact that there's no good way to get precise coordinates on a target location with the gazelle (short of looking at it with the viviane, lasing it for range, then going to the F10 map and drawing a line on the right bearing and of the right range to a position and using that as a rough ballpark for the coordinates). You also can't really mark anything, so AFAC duties would be full of a lot of talk on.

I own the Gazelle and I fly it a fair bit (mainly because it's new and it's another helicopter, and I'm a big chopper fag), but it's just not super useful outside of dicking around IMO.

I really want more fidelity Russian or European fighters.
As much as a meme as it's considered to be I really want VEAO's Typhoon to be good.

I love DCS but it is a piece of shit that crashes constantly. I'm hoping to get an SSD when I start my new job and I hope that'll help
