But the real important thing is the M-2000 overhaul is beeing worked on. " You must think in russian.."

D4n Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Well, clearly PvP is the future of DCS, and to be successful at CAP the pilot has to be as stealthy as possible, thus emit only as much as required (thus TWS). Whether there's a green triangle or not on HUD doesn't impact one's combat performance (afaik).

Schmidtfire Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) I do play both PvP and PvE. Since 2014. But usually not on Blueflag. What that now has to do with anything? Look. Flying M2000C I wait until the target is really close and usually go right into a hardlock. M2000C is best used in-close and personal with Super530D. MagicII, I only carry cause they sort of look cool and the D2M sensor. Working TWS would be nice, but Im not loosing any fights because of it. And I don't really care about a highscore anyway. There are other flight games or upcoming MAC to cover that "competitive" game stuff. I do understand your opinion. But if Razbam thinks it is better to update the basics first like HUD/PCA im fine with it. They know development better than us. TWS and overhaul of radar will be great, but one step at the time. Hornet on the other hand is in desperate need of TWS for IFF and Aim-120 launch and still nothing there... just to put things in perspective. It could be worse :music_whistling: And I don't agree on your assesment. I think PvE will at least be as big if not bigger than PvP. MAC will be where PvP shines.

Schmidtfire Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Well. The odds are not in your favour. They have better avionics and better missiles and GCI so you can’t hide... Sounds like a fail, tws or no tws. I also want to have all those great updates, but lets leave the development to the devs who actually knows the code and how the different systems are tied together.

Every second you emit on BlueFlag Persian Gulf (team blue, since only they have M2000) gives all enemy Hornet (with their uber radar) and Gazelle Mistral pilots a perfect SA... Schmidtfire is right and actually describes the best tactic for flying the M2K! He may be able to teach you a few things about the M2K:P The only way to remain stealthy in an M2k is to be radar off. TWS is NOT and never was stealthy radar. It emits therefore it broadcasts. Now this is NOT to say there isn't a problem with the radar. But I'm willing to wait and see what they come up with.

You are trying to hide on a flat map against superior airframes, sensors and weapons ;) And you think it's tough now.... just wait until the Datalink, SA page and towable decoys come into play. No more hiding at all against F/A-18C. I always fly "vanilla" with default radar settings. Sometimes I change scan up to 80. In close I use the special modes. Because 1: It's effective and 2: It makes me feel special. PM me if you want more tips and tactics on the M2000C. Anyways, let's get back on topic wich is the TWS bug.
