Somnus Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 As the title says, there's currently a sale going on at the DCS website site. On a related note, the 40% off for the Mirage as finally convinced me to switch from the Steam version to the standalone! Klaiber 1 Quote
Britchot Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 I saw that last night while flying the L-39 with Klaiber and Trev. I'll definitely pick up the Mirage and probably go ahead and get the Gazelle just because it's a fun little helo. Quote
Karl Spackler Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 The Gazelle is one airframe right now but will soon be two. The first is the current SA-342M that has the VIVIANE roof mounted TV/IR sight and HOT3 missiles. We'll also be getting the guns version that has a reflex sight and guns a la the Huey. It's a tricksey little bird. Klaiber couldn't find me until I was HOGE and making dust. Klaiber 1 Quote
Lipfert Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 Kameraden, Which version of the game are you folks running? S! Quote
Britchot Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 Myself, I have both 1.5 and 2.0 but the MiG-21 shakes so bad in Nevada that I've just been flying 1.5. Klaiber's map is 1.5, so we've been messing around there. So, I would say the majority of our cooperative stuff is on 1.5. Lipfert 1 Quote
Stadler Posted June 12, 2016 Report Posted June 12, 2016 Well this is good to hear! I've been meaning to get into DCS at some point but never had. Which are the best packs to get for a intro with the possibility to fly with you? Somnus 1 Quote
Britchot Posted June 12, 2016 Report Posted June 12, 2016 We've focused mainly on the MiG-15bis and MiG-21bis. However, I do believe most of us have several modules, to include the German WWII aircraft. Quote
Somnus Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Posted June 13, 2016 Yeah, I've got everything except the C-101 and the Gazelle. And the Mirage.. but two more days until pay day for that! Trev, have you guys been flying regularly at all? If so, when? Quote
Klaiber Posted June 13, 2016 Report Posted June 13, 2016 Brit, Trev, and I have started flying DCS again on Friday nights, usually around 10PM EDT. Lipfert 1 Quote
Lipfert Posted June 13, 2016 Report Posted June 13, 2016 The Mirage shall be mine, such a great looking aircraft (I bought the F-5E as I could not resist). Quote
Karl Spackler Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 I bought the F-5, also. Pure secks machine. Quote
Somnus Posted June 14, 2016 Author Report Posted June 14, 2016 Omg I want the F-5 so bad. I'm having to decide between it and the Mirage. Mirage is out, so it might win out. Quote
Klaiber Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 I have the Mirage, and love flying it. A nice counter-point to the MiG-21. Can't wait for the F-5! Have already pre-ordered. Quote
Britchot Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 Hmm, I just picked up the Mirage, I'm thinking I'll keep holding out on the F-5. It would have been better if they made a MiG-28, though Honestly, one of those developers needs to get 1960-75 Hanoi as an official Map. Quote
Vonrd Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 Picked up the L-39. Flys just like I remember it except Dutch roll is more exaggerated in the DCS model. Britchot and Klaiber 2 Quote
Karl Spackler Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 The base DCS: World is free, full function and comes with the Su-25T Frogfoot and the TF-51D Mustang inf you just want to try it out before you commit. Quote
