Did anyone confirm if the zoom feature can be enabled in this new sim...how do you identify planes without it..

I thought I saw icons at certain distances in the vids.

Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

"a strategy or technique for managing one's time or activities more efficiently"

I'll accept that definition.

In software context, a "hack" (i.e. noun not verb) is most often referring to a sloppy code work-around that shouldn't have to have been necessary except for having avoid a bad design.

I took his tone as the latter, given that his point was the other games didn't design it right the first time and had to use a "hack".

I don't get it ...

How can the game be missing such basic stuff if it's just a spin off of an existing game that already has it...

Thanks for your input thestig

Take a chill pill Animl-AW...

Huh, maybe you should start actually thinking instead of 420 reactions

AH Ranking numbers just dropped from 685 to 350, you should be worried

Politics and other games. Do you bother to think or just addicted to posting anything just to post?

No, i don’t appreciate what you do in Oclub. You keep feeding the worst idiots here.

Choke on your chill pill

If these maggots have there way this will be over mid summer, its on course for that and you help that

Smarten up or fly elsewhere, you won’t have a choice


If you think I’m alone you are more ignorant than I ever gave you credit for

When I said hack I meant it more along the lines of: "to make use of a tip, trick, or efficient method for doing or managing (something)" [Dictionary.com]

I think DCS will slowly loosen up on that fetish.  I think that is culture carry-over from their main military business.

For instance they allowed the Apache reticle be switched to the other eye even though that wasn't realistic.  But in the real world customer don't have to pass fitness exams and many have eye problems.   So they relented.

I think the planes should be default full realism and then  I think they should allow options to account for real-world constraints.

There are icons faintly appearing as you get closer to firing distance, red for enemy and blue for friendly. I think it looks pretty realistic for how you IRL also would need to get closer to actually see what plane you are intending to kill.

Ahhhhhh...hahaha.

The words of a guy threatening people in a sim BBS.

Are you and 99crapola sisters?  He has the same empty threats to people that dont agree with their sweetheartbaggery.
 I suppose the empty threats match the empty brain.  Logic explained.
