So /v/ why don't you play the greatest and most demanding genre of videogame?
>no replies
Guess /v/ is too dumb for flight sims

I liked the first HAWX and Assault Horizon.
>>335790973
what game?
>>335791904
DCS World

Come on senpai, come play some real flying games
It's the wrong place for such genres. Trust me, I'm a huge sim aficionado myself.

Best case scenario we have some dudes who are cool and discuss
Worst case is "hardcore gaymurs" shit on our beloved genre because they lack the mental capacity for it
>>335790973
Anyone here still play X-wing: Alliance?
>>335792124
You're being a smug cunt. Don't be a smug cunt. Now, how realistic are we talking here?Also what type of controllers do you use for something like this? Can I just plug in my DS4 and take you right into the danger zone, or do I need some flight stick or some crazy shit like that?
Two questions regarding dcs -
Does it work with Opentrack? I can't go without headtracking now that I'm used to it in rof.
What is the best dlc to buy? If I get just the base game and the A-10c dlc am I missing out on much?
>>335792350
no but I play TIE Fighter. The GoG release of old games really helps. Some of those old workarounds were defunct
>>335790973
Because I'm too dumb for flightsims
>>335792490
Yes.
Yes, FC3 is a decent start, and A-10C is definitely a rough 'first-start' module. It's great, mind you, just might not be suited for first-time players. If you can read and multi-task, though, you'll have a fun time.
>>335792407
I'm actually interested in this, because I just finished Tie Fighter for the first time, and I loved the fucking shit out of it. I got a cheap flight stick, and threw it out after an hour of struggling with the thing. I want to know if I should try to get a good one for Alliance when I get it.
>>335792407
You need to read 700 pages long manual first and you can throw your DS4 into trash where it belongs, cunt.
>>335792407
DCS has a game mode but it's fairly realistic in some regards, depending on plane. It's regarded as a good place to start though. Yes you can use a DS4 in place of a stick or HOTAS setup, we have a guy in the sim general who plays with a DS4 controller.
>>335792490
Yes
A-10C is easy to fly in but hard to fight in
Reminder that >>>/vg/139974924 is /simulationgamesgeneral/, aka /simg/. Lots of flight sim stuff here, too!
>>335792609
You can take your manual and cram it up your arse, there are comprehensive guides, training missions and simple trial and error as much more fun and engaging ways to learn it.
>>335790973
because I am not autistic to spend so much for joysticks and games
war thunder makes me happy
>>335792560
>>335792630
Thanks Anons
>>335792751
>War Thunder makes me happy
But anon, it has lackluster damage, flight and ballistics modelling. Not only this but obnoxiously autistic grind to get the fun stuff
>>335792843
No problem. Drop by /simg/ on >>>/vg/ and hop into our teamspeak if you need help.
>>335792543
I'm pretty sure Tie works normally on DoSbox, but I wouldn't know. I'm going to be getting Alliance from GoG if I can, but I want to play it "right", you know? If I'm using an inferior control method, and I found out a year from now, I would pull a Charles Foster Kane all over the room I'm in.
But I do
>>335792642
That place is a complete shithole
Though if you're in the Arma 3 / DayZ audience you'll fit right in that general
>>335793216

Hi Kerri :^)
>>335793018
>Game could be played by a literal quadriplegic.
>Canned "strategy"
You could have at least posted Age of Empires 2, or if you have to be a funposter, Blizzcraft.
>>335793216
You're not a team player, are you :^)
>I wanna jump into a fighter and kill all the dudes

>I have only played Civilization V: the post
>>335793357
>Not choosing Civ 5 yourself, and trolling the thread with responses involve CK2.
Now that would be impressive. Why can't trolls live up to my expectations? Why does everything in life fail me?
>>335792630
Am I screwed if I use a mouse? All my controllers are for PS2 or my sega :(
>>335793652
Probably yes
>>335793652
Not really too bad off with A-10C, since it's mostly sensor-based, like with the TGP is basically a camera. Flying, though, you will have a bad time. Once you fly where you're going, you can probably get away with a mouse desu
>>335790973
Because I don't have enough time to learn all that shit.
I'd rather play warthunder or any space flight games.
>>335793872
It's literally as simple as the space flight games when you understand the systems.
>>335790973
dont think my pc can run it
dont have a track ir
no joystick
no money to buy the mig21
>>335792751
There's the buzzword-spouting-memester of I was looking for!
The one flight sim I tried to play was Falcon BMS and I couldn't even figure out how to target the enemy or how to take off/land the plane even with tutorials. They're not for me.
I would love to get into it but DCS world really lacks good solo missions. The briefing interface is terrible
>>335794386
DCS singleplayer is ass. I've moved on to IL-2 and Falcon BMS
