Thanks I've never heard of HQ4DCS, certainly worth checking. I hope through the inferno is not buggy as DCS missions tend to be. I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about:helpsmilie: I don't have such experience with the editor but I'm sure there are youtube guides on this.

This is actually a good idea. Probably be a nice way to pass time after I'm fed up with missile jousting.:thumbup: Thanks, I'll check 'em out.

Thanks for sharing you thoughts:thumbup:. But just isn't fun when you've place all the assets and enemies yourself. Part of the fun in DCS is building situational awareness on BRA calls and surveying target area with your pods (I keep F10 for allies only). I heard about dynamic campaign but I think it will take at least a few years cuz the Falcon guys apparently had a horrid time building it. But that would be a dream come true. Also, I agree that a few more options to customize instant mission creator would certainly refresh things.

Hi, Lately I'm getting bored with this game. Not because I'm burned out, I love this game, but because I've exhausted the campaigns and SP missions for my modules (M2000C, A10C, Hornet, Ka-50) and many user files on the DCS site. I'm from India and the closest server I get is around 300-400 ping so online is out of the question for me. And I'm sure there are people like me from developing countries who aren't able to play online because of this. I've fooled around with the mission editor but there's no thrill when you know what enemy you've placed and where. I've not bought any new maps. Nevada looks like a training map. I'd get the Gulf map but again there are no campaigns currently available for it if I'm right. Why don't ED get a few more like Baltic Dragon to build new campaigns every few months? That way we can spend $10-20 every month and keep busy. Buying a new module every couple of months is quite unaffordable for me. I'd actually like ED to pull an EA games here and just keep churning out new campaigns and DLC regularly (I believe in ED's quality). I'll understand if I'm in the minority here and if people want ED to prioritize on other things. But anyone know if they're planning new single player stuff?

Thanks for the reply man. I guess I have to go low and use terrain to whenever possible cuz than seems like the best option with good chance of success. That leads me to a quick question, whenever enemy flankers attack me they climb to 35000 feet to engage. Therefore if I want to fight head on I must climb to them but I'm finding quite hard to find kill range for my slammers. I know that it is around 10 miles at 20000ft and below while keeping your plane at high speeds but after lots of missile jousting I still can't find a good range.

Hi, I just wanted to know two things actually 1. What do pilots do in real life when they get vectored to a threat? Do they try to not get detected and maneuver to a more advantageous position like on their flanks, or do they just go and fight head to head like we do in single player missions? Here, I'm not talking about BVR maneuvers but actual positioning before the fight begins. 2. Since I only play single player, I wanted to know how to ambush or flank the AI fighters without them knowing about it. As of now they detect me and head straight towards me no matter if they don't have AWACS or ground radars, I turn off my radars, etc. Am I doing something wrong or is this just how the DCS AI works? Btw, I have posted a few threads here and people are really helpful unlike most of the internet. So cheers!

Well ED doesn't accept cards from my country. Steam does that's why its my only option. Anyways, I grew up watching Mi 8's near my home but weirdly never been a fan of it. Also, totally forgot the Harrier, does it have an Official Campaign yet?

Thanks for reply guys. Unfortunately, I have the sim on steam and helo bundle's not available there. So I guess getting Ka 50 and its Republic DLC is a better deal than the map?

Hi, I'm in a bit of dilemma right now. I bought the F/A 18C but after a month of playing I'm getting bored because there's not much content right now for the module. Same thing when I got the Mirage, only a single campaign and some user made missions. I'm a SP guy and to me the Hog is the best module because of DLC campaigns and also a lot of community missions I really want the Persian Gulf map but I fear I'll run into the same problem of not enough content as there's no official campaigns other than a few user made stuff. I'm also quite interested in owning a helo and Ka 50 is on the top of the list right now. I can't get both because I gotta run on tight budget. So, should I go with the map now or get the helo and buy the map a few months later? Not including multiplayer which would be better to spend my time on? Of course, if there's enough single player content on the Gulf map I'd prefer buying that. Thanks for reading through :thumbup::thumbup:

Thanks for reply. Good to hear Maddog is on it. I remember getting this game for the first time in 1.5xx and F15 campaigns were broken even then. I downloaded the Maddog version and his was working fine although SEAD missions were still screwed. Baltic Dragon also fixes his campaign every now and then but it would help if missions don't get messed up every update.

Hi, I hope ED is not believing that all of its user base has jumped to the hornet because many campaigns have been broken for so long but haven't been fixed yet. I'm not posting on specific campaigns section because other people already have threads about the same bugs and problems that I'm facing. For example, in the F15 default campaign the SEAD flight can't even get to EWR and miss most of their missiles trying to kill defending SAM's then die to them afterwards resulting in mission failure. In the very next mission the F15 E flight manages to bomb the runway but nothing happens afterwards and the mission just stalls. I have searched this forum and many people are complaining about these same bugs from around 2016. Likewise, Mirage campaign AI taxi bug is still there, A10 enemy within last mission is bugged still as the enemy infantry was in the open before but now their spawn point is covered with trees so I can't find and kill them all in given limited time and results in mission failure. Also, many single missions are also broken specially for mirage. Eg. Single mission 1 the F16 won't bomb anything and just go through their waypoints and mission stalls. I hope my post isn't taken as angry rant but rather as a suggestion to ED to keep going back after a few updates and and fix older campaigns for bugs. I'm from SEA so can't really get into multiplayer much cuz of 400-500 pings so single player is the only option for me. I'm hopeful that someday soon we all can finally play a bug free DCS.
