DCS A-10C

[chillybilly]

Anyone playing this game?  Holy shit is it amazing.  I feel like I could fly the real thing after getting familiar with this game.

I was watching a youtube tutorial on the JTAC part of the game and my wife, who was in the room, asked it this was in English and they were just talking about the different button punches on the throttle.

Here's a JTAC thread in the forums about CAS along with a great video:

sat my resident Hog pilot down in front of Wags' YouTubes to take a look at DCS: A-10C from a Hog bubba perspective and he agrees so you have TPI on DCS' fidelity. Nice job Wags and team!

Here's how fast it actually goes. This is a Troops In Contact (TIC) in Afghan. This vid is actually part of the JFC outbrief/closing remarks, after the exam/battle staff drill. I was the S-2 for that. S-3 was a -60 bubba, and we had an Apache dude playing JTAC/ASOC. Good times.

Holy cow dude!!! You're a SIM enthusiast?

Was playing LOMAC for a while. Got with some NAVY guys and did carrier ops. F-14's and F/A-18s and T-45s for training. Also, FSX had some really nice carrier action - the ACs looked great. They're still around, but I just got too busy. Was contemplating going back, but stuff like A-10 takes such a long time to master etc.

Multilayer should be a blast!

Glad you're into it man! They have another AC on the way, but I'm not sure what it is, I'm out of the loop. F/A-18 is what I was hearing.
I almost wanna get on TS with you just so I can hear you talk about DCS A-10. The platform before the A-10 was the KA-52 BlackShark helicopter. Both are crazy realism!


"North to South, WEST of the SMOKE!!!" haha, good video. There's a few out there including the one with FF on the Brits - scary.


Have you seen this one??

Ohh there's the d00d.

Ohh man, I just played some MP. Soo fun. Still got some really advanced stuff to try out and learn....like pinpointing bulls-eye calls. Just had a mission where my fellow A-10 pilot and I had to hunt down enemy KA-50 players.... fkcn awesome.

I dunno what it is, but lately I've been hitting the mark big time with cluster bombs - fireworks show! JTAC calls are awesome.

If you ever have time, we should fly some. There's a few folks I hang with - We can host our own or join a decently populated server.

I'd heard the MP was amazing.  The game is incredible, for sure.

shruew is just trying to save me some embarrassment though.  The reason I hadn't logged in for a while was because he had to ban me for 2 months for being too awesome.

Sure sure....

Well, lemme know if you wanna play man. I just flew with some guys today... I pulled too many Gs and broke a fkcn wing...I hate when that happens.

Just got a new card, and the game looks pretty!
