DCS World (Digital Combat Simulator)

I want accurate flight models and simulation depth too. DCS gives more than War Thunder in these regards.
 
Dude. WarThunder has this incredibly deep and realistic flashing model of your plane in the bottom left that tells you instantly what part of your plane is ****ed and how badly.
It also has the best Yak3Ps that this world has ever seen and cockpits so DETAILED that half of the don't work. Assuming the plane even has one.


Check your flight-sim privilege, DCS scum.

They have today and tomorrow to keep to their "September" goal. Which is way more impressive than anything else.
 
They're apparently testing a release candidate right now to see if it's stable enough. They may still delay, but it shouldn't be too much longer.

One of the changes is a 6DOF cockpit for the MiG-29. Yay! I love that definitely-not-trying-to-be-a-short-legged-sukhoi ****heap.
 
Dat performance increase!  :shock:
1.5 doubled my fps and with v-sync on I get stable 60 fps with all settings maxed out at 1440p resolution!  :party:
Even the Multiplayer gives me 60 fps and I couldn't see any sync issues either (yet). Nice!
 
It's out then? :eek:
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!
 
I just downloaded the open beta launcher from ED's website. But it 's coming to Steam in a few days I think.
 
The 2.0 open alpha is out, including the new NTTR map. It took me nearly two days to download the map files, a whooping 28 GB. :shock:
There is a torrent out there now though, should speed up things considerably. Torrent link
 
In case it wasn't obvious, 1.5 is out on stable version too, and good God. Double the visual quality at double the framerate. The whole game went from "More or less playable" to "playable" on my machine.

Now to actually remember how to fly any other plane than the Mustang.
 
Learn to fly Su-27, never fly anything again. Has everything Russian Hero pilot could want:
  • Air-to-air. You don't get AMRAAMskis, but those are for weak German MiG pilots. You get R-27ET, never turn on radar, take capitalists by surprise.
  • Air-to-ground. You don't need fat Sukhoi 25 to kill pigs on the ground. Sukhoi 27 can carry rocket and bomb for you. Just be careful nosing down. Only Gs Sukhoi likes are positive Gs.
  • Mobility. Capitalists make plane fly pilot. Russian Hero can fly plane himself! Disable flight control nonsense and become one with Sukhoi. Make 35 peak G turn, is OK, Sukhoi can handle it.
Don't let capitalists fool you. Auto-trim is for the lazy. It is not needed.
 
Tried the flying tutorial with the Su-27. Trim was ineffective and autopilot just flat out did not work. Great plane.
I feel like this is an issue greater than the aircraft itself, though.
 
Try using "stick to trimmer" mode on an easily accessible button. It's much easier to finagle that way, and you can trim it pretty well after a bit of practice. You'll get lots of practice if you fly it frequently. Autopilot does sort-of work, IIRC, but it's tied into the data link somehow. Your nav points are stored in the dlink and I think messing with your dlink can prevent you from entering autopilot or screw with its flight plan.

Unless they've released new tutorials, they're balls and should be avoided at all costs. Your best bet would be the official manual and YouTube tutorials. Keep in mind the strengths of the plane, specifically turn rate and speed. It doesn't climb as well as the MiG-29, it doesn't have the radar of the F-15 or an AMRAAM analogue (MiG-29 gets them, the R-77, aka AMRAAMski), but when I said "35 peak G turn" I meant it. You can disable the flight control system (FCS), then roll & pull almost 90 degrees in a distance little more than the length of the aircraft, if you really want to. Think Pugachev's cobra but at higher speed and sideways. Combined with the helmet-mounted targeting system and high off-boresight capabilities of the R-73 missile, the Sukhoi should never lose a short-range engagement against anything else in DCS. Even without stressing the plane like a madman you can out-turn MiGs, and you can out-turn Eagles without trying.

The Sukhoi and MiG-29 also share an advantage in short-medium range combat with their IRST system, or infrared search & track. It's that bulbous thingy to the front-right of the cockpit that sticks up from the nose, and it lets you search for, lock, and fire upon enemies out to ~10km. The game also calls it Electro-optical, if you look for it in the keybindings. Think of it as a short-range radar that doesn't ping everything in front of you, and you get a good idea of its uses. It can spot, track, and lock targets without any indication to the target, and furthermore you can fire IR missiles with this lock such as the R-27ET and R-73, which also won't alert your target. I think you can also launch active radar missiles with an IRST lock, though the Su-27 doesn't get any actives. The MiG-29 does in the R-77, so you could theoretically launch those without ever turning on your radar.

Take all of this into account, and what you'll find is that Russian aircraft are especially deadly when their pilots effectively utilize terrain masking and defensive flying techniques to get close to their targets. It's possible to spot, identify, engage, and kill a target without them knowing you were there until they're staring at their burning wreckage plummet to the ground. You will be outclassed at altitude, over water, and over flat terrain, but if you can get yourself to within the edge of visual range you have the advantage.
