What a night!!! so much fun! never in the field of warfare has getting my arse shot off been such a giggle!! @schurem@sobek@scoop (Ive invited him to Mudspike) were such gentleman tonight
cheers for the lesson @schurem I certainly saw some improvements by the end. but its a long LONG road yet!!
i was in VR all night so the shots arent great. the battle between @sobek and @schurem where i just tried to keep up was EPIC!!
Tried to put down my landing gear today and it turned the left display into a slot machine! First try didn’t let me put my gear down, but the second pull did the trick (ignore that awful approach, I was panicking). Managed to capture a screenshot before it went away and not crash.
So… is this an April Fool’s joke or something? Every pull of the gear handle started a slot machine. About the fifth time the handle glowed red and the gear finally came down…
But on the other hand, this was literally the second time I’ve fired up DCS in over a month or two. I had completed my first ever cold start to carrier take off, spend 30 minutes in the air remember how to set up rockeyes, dropped them, navigated my way back to the carrier, and was set up in one of best Case I patterns I’ve had in a while. It was all looking to be a very satisfying “start to finish” mission. But by the time I figured out WTF was going on with the gear and got them down, I was like at 6k ft and 10 miles from the boat. It was late and I gave up. Totally killed my mood…
