Rudel_chw Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Grabbed a Sabre and the PG map for my 2nd account, which I sometimes use as a server. The planned standalone server will hopefully make running on a fairly basic unit a lot more viable. I still havent built my Server Rig, but I'm excited about the stand alone server coming soon, so I'm interested in purchasing at least the Nevada Map at 50% off ... not sure about Combined Arms .. is it really useful on a Server? I'm thinking about PG. :glare: It's really a wonderful Map, I've been flying on it almost non-stop. There are still not many missions for it, but that's an opportunity to edit your own :D I'm enjoying this Map a lot, both on the F-18 and the MiG-29 :) Best regards For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechRoss Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Got the huey too. Haven't tried it yet though. Wondering how it'll work with the warthog throttle. Also got NTTR. Huey works fine with the Warthog throttle as the collective. Probably best to remove the AB detent if you are using one. It feels strange having to push thru that.

TechRoss Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I got the Spitfire, Normandy, WWII Assets Pack and the NS 430. Spitfire is awesome but just wants to kill me. Rest of the modules are still in the box. Have to put them in my Christmas stocking so can't have them till then :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiramisu Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I was thinking about buying one of those helicopters, but I think I will wait for a helicopter bundle, after I have missed the previous one. combined arms and AV-8b... so tempted for more...but.... I was also thinking about buying Combined Arms, because I am hoping to get a mix of DCS and the strategy game "Command: Modern Air". However, some of the negative reviews on steam unconvinced me to buy it right now. Mig-29 Wait... the Mig-29 is unfortunately not on sale. At least not on steam. Otherwise I would have bought it immediately. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varis Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) I was thinking about buying one of those helicopters, but I think I will wait for a helicopter bundle, after I have missed the previous one. I was also thinking about buying Combined Arms, because I am hoping to get a mix of DCS and the strategy game "Command: Modern Air". However, some of the negative reviews on steam unconvinced me to buy it right now. CA is mostly useful in some multiplayer missions where it has a role. Otherwise it feels overpriced comparing to what other modules in DCS can offer, unfortunately. The trick is that it can add value to every other module you have, might make sense to some people to buy it on discount. Hopefully ED can boost it up with the 2.0 version. Would still make a lot of sense to bundle it with helicopters and maybe some other stuff. The big helicopter bundle was bit of a one-off... they should maybe do some more promoting for them. I doubt we'll see better than -50% discounts on helis for a while...

I doubt we'll see better than -50% discounts on helis for a while... Damn! :( I hoped they would offer some similar bundle in the next winter sale. Due to the IsThereAnyDeal site helicopters like the Black Shark 2 were even down to only 10€ during a steam-sale in 2015. I guess 2015 was a big exception in the sale-history of DCS.

For whatever reason... I'll have to check that although I already have almost all helicopters :thumbup: ED has increased module prices not long back. 2015-2016 I think were times of heavy promotions on Steam, they have pushed that platform and increased the user base. This time I got the mirage, harrier, spitfire, mig-15 (awesome!), huey. And Normandia+asset pack, think it's overlooked as it's not just for WW2. May still get a bit more at least the GPS and maybe a campaign... The vintage aircraft are a nice surprises... so much more feeling though WW2 apparently is somewhat incomplete as an environment... so is DCS overall... but the aircraft are good... I hope we get the rest :smilewink: SA-342 Ka-50 Mi-8 AJS-37 F-18 M2000C AV-8B-N/A Mig-15bis CA --- How to learn DCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F900EX Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Can we use bonus points to purchase anything? Don't see an option when adding M2k to cart. Seems silly to me but bonus points can only be used at full price, off topic another thing I don't like is that the points expire i think within 1 year if you don't use them. My issue with this is it can take a few years before a new aircraft is released, 1 year is not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondaysoff Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Going to purchase the Harrier very soon and maybe NS430 for Albatross.
