>>561284854Simulation games have no excuse
I really have to applaud the devs for this game. There's so much crap to do and somehow it's all different enough to keep it interest. Sure, 40% of it is basically fetch quests, but they're interesting. Dropping off a load and watching something get built is pretty cool. Also, the details in the environment are nice.
>>561296454I just wish the devs put more effort into the engine. Old Spintires/Mudrunner had less to do, and less vehicles, but the feel was WAY superior.Snowrunner vehicles feel very light in comparison.But i'm glad you're having fun either way, anon. Its still a fun game and will give you hundreds of hours of autism.
>>561296707>Old Spintires/Mudrunner had less to do, and less vehicles, but the feel was WAY superior.Yeah, I've kind of noticed that too. I feel like the vehicles bounce around more than Spintires. Maybe I'll give Spintires another play. It's been like 7 years since I've played it. Really, my main issue with the game is some of the sound effects. The Tetra sounds like a Halo Warthog everytime it shifts gears and some scout truck I was using sounded like the Battlefield Bad Company 2 Abrams. Sometimes at night you'll hear a morning dove start their song but it only plays like three notes of it. It annoys me autism. But that's my only real complaint and it's superficial at best.
>>561297259>Really, my main issue with the game is some of the sound effects.Oh yeah they're fucking dogshit sadly.
>>561297567Small dev team, pls understand.
Is there a site to pirate paid assetto corsa mods? Specifically RSS stuff.
>>561310074I don't have an answer for you but I swear I've seen this exact question asked 3 or 4 months ago.
>>561271305Well bit the bullet on lmu spring sale Guess I like gt3 now (Yawn) Hopefully I can survive some long races and get out of gt3 shithell
>>561310074I feel like most assetto mods are a dollar or so anyway Fair enough though I did one time through searching stumble on an AC mod site that had a bunch of paid ones downloadable for freeProbably full of viruses desu but they worked fine and I idn't scan them They were F1 ACR 90s/00s cars with liveries etc, but ones that are paid on their site Searched with duckduckgo for ac mods basically

>>561353506I don't understand how suspension damage works in Snowrunner, it seems random. Engine damage at least results from smashing into rocks. I think I've had transmission damage from driving over a rock that then hit the chassis.
>make 7:35.something lap>CM registers only the outlap
>>561332960In on the fence if i should buy the MIG-21 or the MIG-29A fullcrum. Everyone says the 21 is more fun and realistic for how old it is. But i feel the 29 will be more useful for multiplayer missions.
>>561354104I don't play a ton of multiplayer but the MiG-21 is great. From what I understand, the FF MiG-29A isn't that much different than the Flaming Cliffs MiG-29A. Right now, anyway. I guess the FF MiG is still being developed so it's subject to change but as I understand right now there isn't a huge difference. If FF is that important than go for it but the FC3 MiG-29 is way cheaper and 80% the same. Also, a side note, but if I remember right, the FC3 one can take the R77 in multiplayer servers. I don't think the FF has the ability to slot them. Don't qoute me on that.
>>561354639thanks m8, yeah i think I'll go for the 21 just because afaik it has clickable cockpit and I only play VR now. it will be a bitch to learn but everyone loves it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0tf0q_9jGANot really /simg/ but I was reminded of it, always makes me laugh>REEEEEE *smash*
>>561354104I own both. MIG-21 was the first module that I bought. MIG-21 surely shows it age but it is still a very fun aircraft to fly.MIG-29A is basically still in early access. It's an earlier model, so you can't take R77, only R-23R/ER , R-73 Archer and R-60 Aphids. What is different than FC3 Model? It's an earlier revision of the aircraft, it's full fidelity and its core systems are modeled better (IRST, radar, basically whole avionics package). It's not as capable as its FC3 counterparh in the airquake but very fun to fly.
>>561357850>>561354639Damn the 29 is expensive still with the discount. but well I got the 21 at 50%, time to learn. thanks
>>561357850>>561354639btw do you guys play the campaings? ive seen some at 4$ but Ive never read anyone talking about them. or is just best to try scenarios or custom missions
>>561359731Yeah, waiting for sales always pays off. DCS stuff goes on sale fairly often.
>>561360125I use briefing room to generate simple missions like interceptions, ground attacks and so on. Campaigns are heavily scripted in DCS and I dislike the fact, that you can miss some triggers which can break your entire mission. There is something called DCS: Liberation, which is a dynamic campaign with the frontlines and persisting battle state. Have played it and it's also pretty fun.

>>561349475I like it. It's fun to fly, cockpit and visibility are awesome all around (gota love the sunroof for the passengers), it has custom sounds, working systems, and sky/float/tundra options.It has no obvious bug but it's a bit rough on the edges, and exterior model is simply ok+. Flight model is also floaty but there's a guy who made a custom one already.
>>561370423>guy who made a custom one alreadyI never trust those cunts because it's just made by randoms who don't know what they're doing.
>>561370423Here it is BTW, it also restores the true STOL speed that is around 45kts :[FLIGHT_TUNING]cruise_lift_scalar = 1.5flap_induced_drag_scalar =1.3roll_stability =1yaw_stability =1.5
>>561370964Guy has IRL experience on taildraggers and old planes so I kind of trust his judgement.But yeah, I get your feeling. The plane is fine anyway.
>>561371219That's alright then, but often you'll get a dev who worked with pilots for a plane and then random non-pilots will come along and say the plane is shit because it doesn't fly how they expect it to.

>>561372782I crashed near the first carrousel and had to go again, the fastest I've been, with a non-f1 car, is 7:02,477 on a M4 GT3
>>561375675I think my fastest non "race car" would've been a lancia delta maybe? the 24 hour circuit in 9:25 or soHaven't tried gt3 because I find it too samey to look at but the RSR's and other GT3's are super grippy and predictable even without tc/abs I have to admit.I think my fastest was a 6:24 in the NISMO R89CHave you tried AC Evo by any chance? the merc GT2 is pretty insane in that (sub 7 laps iirc), also the M4 GT3 Evo is good, but so many people use it it kinda bums me out.
>>561372782https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9eDiPZJpkQ
>>561373652In Snowrunner there's a mission where you move parts for a Soyuz rocket. I haven't made it that far yet, but it looks like you just take fuel tanks and stuff up. There's a mod where you can move the whole rocket into position and launch it, apparently.
>>561380403haven't gotten into evo yet, I just like the old ac better so far. I want to jump to automobilista 1 and 2.The m4 gt3 is is quite good in ac, and I agree some gt3s feel quite the same sometimes, only reason I've got stuck with the m4 was due to the sound fx

Time for bed.
>>561380897that is so cleanI can't drift for shit to be honest
>>561382126fair, I will say AMS2 is a lot of fun with the custom liveries + championships etc you can get on overtake gg and other websitesThe driving is more floaty feeling but once you dial in settings it can still drive pretty realistically despite it being weird on the limit (except for F1 cars which seem to be normal on the limit but weird without aero but the sheer variety of F1 cars makes it good for me)
>>561382126I should mention that a lot of what you can do on AMS2 you can do in assetto for cheaper also but I still like the game in all
>>561425496>>561425778How's AMS1? In terms of features and mods.And what setting you recommend that I should tweak to get a better feel in AMS2?
>>561427339since I only have a g920 I added a lot of the slip effects and low end boost, also there are custom FFB profiles on the reiza forums that people think better model tyre effects both slip and wear, for DD wheels and gear or belt wheelspersonally I have a bit of damping, maybe 30% but then for car setups I usually add negative camber and a little aero + more tyre pressure /harder tyres, since it's one way I find to feel nice and "sticky" without your tyres blowing out from brake zones or going full mario kart which can tend to happen especially with stuff like P1 and other hypercar types for ams1 I am not really sure unfortunately
>>561402312Imagine being able to fly anywhere whenever you want
AzurPoly's Rafale will have radar and air-to-air missiles that work with AI traffic, and they're working on air to ground, it won't work with multiplayer yet though. We might be entering an age where MSFS could turn into a combat sim.
>>561402312Last week I had a discovery flight at the local airclub where I flew a DR-400 for around 20 minutes, takeoff and approach/final included, plus all checklists and everything, real deal, with a friendly instructor.It was awesome.On on the other hand now I want to pass my PPL. Also my hardcore GA flying in MSFS paid off as I could find and read all the instruments and buttons at once. Pic related, that was the same cockpit.
>>561440093Biggest issue for GA is the weather. If it's raining, stormy, if there's fog or too much wind, you're cooked. You can pass instrument rating but it's more big bucks, and you need to have an IFR equipped plane too.
>>561451550Nah fuck it, scud run it
>>561451176That's why I've never bothered with a one off flying lesson, it would make me sad to know I can't afford the 10 grand or whatever it is to complete it.
it may sound silly but how do I calculate proper FOV for a 14inch screen for racing games, namely AC? all the calculators don't go that low...I'm on a laptop so I can put it right up to my face.
any assetto corsa controller fags? do you use any assist plugins or raw dog it?
>>561456235https://dinex86.github.io/FOV-Calculator/https://simracingcockpit.gg/fov-calculator/try these, if those dont help. eye ball it through the size of your hand.
>>561455987If you're a burger, a sport pilot license is slightly cheaper than that, and thanks to recent MOSAIC rule changes will allow you to fly most small GA planes up to about the size of a 172.
I went to a shopping centre irl today and it wasn't as comfy as this and I didn't have a pizza.
>>561459989I'm a bong, there's a light aircraft license which is slightly cheaper and requires less hours, there's also the microlight/deathtrap one which is cheaper than that.
>>561461917I have an "arcade mall" about 20 minutes from my house. It was okay but the "rides" area looked pretty sketchy. Not a lot of actual arcade machine. It has kind of a crappy Dave and Busters inside with maybe 30 machines, mostly racing. Other than that it has bowling, axe throwing, and a couple of decent restaurants/bars. Among other things. Fortunately, there's an arcade in my town. It doesn't have much, probably about 30 "classic" machines plus 12 pinball machines. It's still cool.
>>561462930Axe throwing is really popular now for some reason, as is mini golf>probably about 30 "classic" machines plus 12 pinball machinesThat's great, it's rare to find pinball machines these days, I went to a small seaside town which had a small arcade that had the Addams Family and Fish Tales in, pretty mental. Had a few goes on Fish Tales but I was running out of time so couldn't stay long. I'm embarrassed to say that's the first time I've ever played pinball irl because they're so rare, but I've played pinball simulators loads on my PC. The Pinball Arcade was great until they lost the Williams license to FX Pinball and now it's dead, fortunately I kept all the tables as I'd bought it years ago.
>>561458952they don't go low enough... >handwhat do you mean?
>>561464128this one does: https://simdeck.app/tools/fov-calculator>handgrip your wheel, and adjust your fov until your in-game hand is roughly the same size of you real hand.
is fov even important?.. i just thought I'd do it cause everyone memes about it
>playing air hockey against bots>it's really fast and intense>didn't even see the time and fucking die during the game because I broke curfewI'm annoyed because I got the jackpot on one machine, I'll have to do it again.
>>561464813it is if you're autistic about it or use a triple screen setup, if you're gamin on single screen, it hardly matters
>>561464813Depends how much distortion you can tolerate, and makes a bigger difference with head tracking.
>>561464763ooh nice thank you>grip your wheela-about that...>>561465223yeah I'm on a laptop at 720p. just zoomed it so I could see the mirrors.>>561465385a lot probably? not sure I'd even try for head tracking, thought it would been more a problem not seeing the sides but mirrors and proximity display feels enough
>>561465385I've tried head tracking and I realized I hardly move my head while racing, I just move my eyes around.
>>561465563>>grip your wheel>a-about that...understandable, race on.
>>561463857>Axe throwing is really popular now for some reason, as is mini golfIt's for taking your girlfriend out and watching her titties jiggle when she throws it. I've been seeing a lot of pinball lately. I'm pretty shit at it. I'm trying to understand how to bump the machines properly. Part of me is afraid of fucking them up since they're so old, but I see people doing it. Most of them are from the 80s but there's a really old Monster Mash machine. It feels completely different from the later ones. "Heavier" is probably the right way to describe it. Looks a lot more like that Fish Tales one. I think the coolest machine they have is a Jaws machine. Super slick. Plays clips from the movie. I like playing pinball. I played a lot of Demon's Tilt. Really under rated game. I wish I had a virtual table to throw it on. Would probably be cool. I had a coworker who built virtual tables.
>>561467602Tilting is a skill, I whacked Fish Tales too hard and it went into tilt. There's a lot of technique in pinball, it's fun, unfortunately they cost thousands if you want your own.
>>561465804You probably don't need head tracking as much in racing cars compared to other things, flying you're looking around a lot, even if you're in a light aircraft doing circuits.
>>561467803Apparently the Monster Bash machine is from 1998. Thousands is an understatement. That Monster Bash machine is $16k. It is what it is. The arcade in town has a Game of Thrones machine so they're still making them, apparently.
>>561466137its not bad, I think most of my issues are skill and knowledge base, not hardware.don't have anything to compare to but definitely better than a keyboard.
>>561468241Yeah but Monster Bash is one of the top-tier machines along with Addams Family, Medieval Madness etc so they're sought after. Stern still make new pinball machines.
>Do hotlap>break personal record>no crashes and not going off track>CM doesn't register itfuck this shit
>>561468365>top-tier machinesYeah I can see that. I feels excellent to play and has a surprising amount of objectives. It looks deceptively simple. I'm going to have to hit up the arcade this weekend.
>>561468794why do you need it registered if you already know it?
>>561470824autism.
>>561470858you can fight it. if you font reinforce a habit it will become weaker
>>561440093>>561451176>>561451550How much money would it take to approach an aircraft manufacturer or whatever and go "here, build me this plane just for me, I want it to look like this and I want it to have this and that"
>>561472910There are a ton of caveats to this question. Are we talking a completely custom design from a major manufacture like Airbus or Boeing? Assuming you could talk them into it, probably billions. Like, half a trillion. Are we talking a custom aircraft from a manufacture? Say, a custom Cessna 172 or a custom 737 from their respective companies? Add 200-500% of whatever the aircraft costs depending on what you want to do. A custom cabin is different from an all weather aircraft for flying into a hurricane.Custom aircraft come with custom parts which requires custom machinery as well as R&D. On top of that, you have to have ratings and certifications on top of it for them to sell it to you.
>>561472910However much the P2012 contract cost.
I just bougth fs2024 20% discount on steam what did I think of it? got 72mins in, think i might refund before the 2hour mark, its basically same graphics as fs2020 and i paid fucking 90 euros for that shit
>>561479383It's not a FSX-MSFS tier upgrade but it's better, the trees alone are a huge improvement, and the physics are better. You can refund it if you want but the more you play it the more you'll realise it's better, also addon devs are now abandoning 2020 in favour of 2024 so planes coming out for it will dry up.
>>561479869i just wanna fly to see if my house was therecant believe its also missing in 2024what a ripoff
>>561480361Shit game 0/10 anon's house isn't in it
I really need to get the mud tires for this thing. Apparently they turn it into a proper swamp buggy.
>>561482581I saw people online saying the off road tyres are preferable in some situations as they can get over rocks and other debris better than mud tyres.
>>561479383Most of the benefit is in having an extra 200 gigs free on your hard drive. Slightly prettier atmospherics and non-hideous trees are the cherry on top.
>>561474158I mean it doesn't have to be an airliner and it doesn't have to be boeingbusMaybe just a simple small single seater for fun flying in the weekends
>>561490084Love old helis me
>>561490084I have the same nose.
>>561490290With a home built ultralight you can probably get away with 50k or less.Also if you want a really customized aircraft, well there's no free lunch in engineering and you're gonna need either tradeoffs or much more money.
>>561490084You can always count on the Brits to make the ugliest SOBs ever built.
>>561491870It's called sovl, you wouldn't get it
>>561491870But they also made one of the coolest
Bongs have produced some of the ugliest things to ever take to the skies, but the Griffon Spitfire is the sexiest propeller airplane ever made so I forgive them
>>561493952Is that a fucking window? Sitting in the back of that would be even worse than in an A-1
>>561490290your best bet are experimental kits. you would need to have an hangar already and some manufacturing/assembly experience. Honestly if you want to fly quickly. Is best to join some fly club and ask for some used cessna 152 in the meantime. You may get a decent offer. Electrics are decent and you save money in maintenance and fuel but the upfront costs are still too much.
>>561494150Looks like some kind of light beacon or maybe a camera
>>561494150>>561498096Ackchually,>To help balance the new engine, the radio equipment was moved further back in the rear fuselage and the access hatch was moved from the left fuselage side to the right.>Late in 1944 a number of high-back full-span Mk XIVes were converted by the Forward Repair Unit (FRU) to have a single camera fitted, facing to port or starboard; a conversion identical to that used on the FRU-converted FR Mk IXc. To achieve this a new hatch, similar to the radio hatch on the port side, was installed on the starboard side, and both hatches were fitted with camera ports in streamlined blisters.
>>561498451Interesting
>>561498451I will now play Il-2 tonight, although my current campaign is German. Is there any real difference between Cliffs of Dover and the battle series? I picked up dover real cheap for a sale but I was waiting for them to push the VR update out.
>>561493952Clipped winged Spitfire always looks awesome in a threatening way.
>>561482792It's all trade offs. Even within their own types different tires do different things. There are a lot of hidden stats. Either way, the Bandits mud tires are apparently good for swampy areas. This video doesn't dive into that but you are right in that off road tires are the best for most situations. Even in mud it's sometimes better to just take certain offroad tires. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGagvc7X2oQ
The Bandit is so cool. I should play other trucks but I feel really cool plowing through mud in the Bandit.
>>561498096spoiler that lewd shit next time

>Download DCS free version to try it out>hop on a multiplayer server after reading the manual for a bit>initiate starting procedure>blow up on the runwayI think this game may not be for me. Respect to the people who actually learn all that shit though
>>561518723Have you managed to burn out the radar yet? That's always a pleasant surprise.
>>561519289It's got a learning curve, for sure. I don't even really mess with multiplayer because I would just eat a lot of shit.

>>561561714What's the service ceiling?
>>561562524You have to spawn it airborne, but I would guess 800ft above sea level. The top of the arch is like 1,100ft above sea level and it definitely could not power that high.

lads, what flying game can I play on a laptop with Vega 7 graphics? for what its worth CPU is good and I have 32GB ramI'm guessing DCS is out of the question, what about some relaxing civie stuff?
>>561565348XP11
This game is very rough in its current state and I wouldn't recommend it, but it is fun, the funfair is great.
>>561565348Aerofly maybe, I don't know much about it but I think it's better for low spec PCs.

>>561567753RIP
>>561570243Why is it solo devs either make it or have a breakdown? Is it really that difficult to use fucking trello or something and just break a project down and stick at it? Games can be in early access for yonks now, there's not exactly a rush unless you team up with a publisher in which case they will pressure you to release it when it isn't ready. Which I suppose could have been the cause here, but I can't imagine MicroProse pestering a lone dev constantly.

>>561595075Know a few people who are into it. Like most milsim-adjacent games, it's very social and you'll have a kind of shit time unless you join a clan. It's a cog-in-a-machine sim, and sometimes being a cog in a machine is just grindy as fuck.
>>561595075I put like 40 hours into it awhile back. I like the game and concept but I couldn't get into it.
Three medium logs down. Three more to go. ...Plus three long logs. Fortunately, I have DLC vehicles. Doesn't make it easier or less tedious, but gives me the flexibility to do these missions. I do have the White Western Star with 4WD but the Mack is pretty slick looking. Is there a truck that can haul three sets of medium logs I'm supposed to be using or am I really expected to do two at a time then bring back a third one on it's own?I don't mind, just seems a bit much, even for the payout.
Hey. I got accepted into the closed beta of Road Kings. I had to sign a NDA so i won't post screenshots and stuff (or maybe i will who knows) but i'll definitely let you guys know how it's shaping up to be.
>>561613587Hopefully they don't go full retard with the EPIC WEATHER shit. I really don't wanna drive through a tornado or hurricane or whatever.
>>561614143Tornadic supercells and derechos are a huge hazard for trucking in central burgerland. Checking the forecast to route around high winds and big hail is just part of the job in the prairie this time of year.
>>561518961yeah its pretty fun. Its my first DCS mod so i guess the following ones will be easier to handle. Im reading the manual and learning the boring slow way.>>561521453I didn't even know radars can be burnt wtf. How does that even happen? aircraft overheating?Also >>561566007 looks pretty nice in flatscreen, but I like VR so i have to play in way lower res
>>561616743>I didn't even know radars can be burnt wtf.This one is cooled with alcohol that evaporates or some shit like that. You get a finite amount and then your radar gets toasted.
>>561616892> cooled with alcoholkek I love Ork-like military tech like that.
This general is peak comfy and one of the few things helping me to stay sane.
>>561621278Just keep chugging, anon.
>>561617349>>561616892Yeah, it's a pretty long-running joke that Russians drink all the coolant in their radars. The Tu-22 was notorious for it. That's also how the Moskva really sunk. The crew drank all the coolant in the air defense radar. >>561621278I just wish it were more active. Fortunately, at least on the surface, we're about to hit another Simming golden age. So much sim shit is coming out within the next couple of years. Unfortunately, the demographics of 4chan these days are not of the type to play sims.

>>561626773Well, I'm a dumbass. Apparently loading all those logs in the side wall trailer didn't work. I don't know why I thought that would work. That's what I get for trying to take three loads at once. Did not think that through. Enormous waste of time. >>561626794Do you guys simulate ERP?

Lost a cylinder because of a leaky crankcase.Good thing I had 10.5 remaining (one is half cooked) to finish the flight.
>>561652661What do you have the failure rate set to? Or was that from raping the engine?
>>56165775310x IIRC.It's an "auction" airframe that always had a troublesome left engine, whose oil pressure would barely be in the green even after a long runnup.What's interesting is that the crankshaft damage has not worsened but it took a cylinder on the way. Also had a weird engine wobble noise at take off one hour before failure.

any recommends for a train sim that does switching/shunting? I already played Derail Valley and Railroader, are there more games that do it like these two?
>>561593421>James, she took the kids I can't do->Shut up David! Check the train!
>>561664201The GOAT class 08 shunter is in TSW
>>561582520knight's cross just dropped an updatecome home white man
>>561667712What's the most popular Silent Hunter these days? 3 or 4? I know 5 was supposed to be shit.
>>561668053it's mostly a question of flavor, if you like american submarines you should play 4, if you prefer the germans then play 33 has the more active modding scene from what i can tell, and MOST IMPORTANTLY they fixed the awful ways of modding it, instead of running windows-bricking .bat files you just download the whole game pre-modded nowi've heard some good things about 5's steel wolves but i haven't played it
>>561664438How is the shunting in it? i thought Train Sim World was mission based, so no real variationbecause i did look at the new Dovetail Train Sim with the Dresden and DB Shunter thingy, that looked neat
>>561670254Probably, honestly I haven't done any in TSW, just TS Classic, but there are bound to be shunting missions. You could also be very autistic and do your own shunting to put your own train together and drive that.
The A400M that comes and does circuits at my local airport and flies over my flat had an emergency two days ago, smoke in the cockpit, it's just taken off but had been stuck there since the issue.
I brought a truck with a log trailer and fixed my issue. In the end, it still saved me a third trip to get a load of long logs so it worked out. Just had to take those logs from the sidewall trailer and place them into the log trailer then pack them. I like the log crane but it is a little finicky.
>>561664201contrary to popular belief, Run8 is not a train simulatorit's a railcar switching simulatorand it will make you hate railcar switching
>>561684968More like Dodge Farter.
>>561687737tell me more about Run8How much stuff is included in the base game?How are mods and payware?Is there European rolling stock?And most importantly: s it fun?
>>561687737It looks like you need be a really autist burger to play run8
Caution: magnetic compass erratic when air conditioner is in operation.
>>561684968I don't even have to guess the race of the driver with those cars.
>>561674258>smoke in the cockpitScary.
FUCK Drummond Island, what's the fucking point of this? It's just a dead end and I'm going to run out of fuel.
>>561664201I'm looking into getting Wonders of Sodor desu. Can play it with my son who's going through his train phase.
>>561691350I had to recover, and I'm nearly out of money, I'm going to have to find some easy job to do in the truck where I won't get stuck with the shit tyres on so I can refuel the scout and continue exploring. 44 hours into Snowrunner, and I like it but I also think it's getting rather boring that I basically cannot use the trucks because they get stuck due to shit tyres and better tyres being locked behind levels, which are not easy to get. Hard mode is nothing to do with this btw, that doesn't change the xp or level requirements. I'm not too far off level 5, once I get to level 6 I can get the all-round tyres for trucks (still shit but better).
>>561691350>>561692315I think the point is to ease new players into long term logistical planning. Since there's no garage, you have to bring pretty much everything you can for every mission. So you scout it out, find the missions, bring your trucks in with fuel carriers and the like. I'm not doing hardcore mode and I'm using DLC shit. Maybe on my next playthrough, but for now I'll take "easy" mode. I can't imagine playing this game with just the equipment you find. Then again, the White Western Star is really good once you get the 4WD.
>>561692757Yeah I appreciate that and I'm learning lots as I play, but it's also a bit frustrating not being able to do most missions because I know I'll just get stuck. It would be nice to have a few delivery missions I'm actually able to do, but I'll work on that now. I don't have any DLC, just the base game.
>>561664201https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwkmqgX4XkwMore /egg/ than /simg/, but Workers and Resources is mostly a train game dressed up as a city builder.
>>561688474>How much stuff is included in the base game?Run 8 v3 includes both the UP and BNSF Mojave Subs (220 miles combined), BNSF Barstow yard, UP Yermo yard, and the BNSF Needles Sub (168 miles). All of these routes have been merged and updated with additional track and new scenery. That's a world over 400 miles long (with yards) which includes two freight crew districts and a long pool district!>How are mods and payware?Mods are sounds and textures only. The only payware comes from the developers, and they very hostile to modding. If you don't buy the rail car packs your cars will look like a grey boxcar no matter what, but they will function perfectly fine.>Is there European rolling stock?No. North American USA Only.>And most importantly: s it fun?No. Your train will go into emergency stop every 5 minutes your first day until you figure out why. It's filled with boomer humor and then your train derails and your locomotive blows a turbo while you're on a hill.>>561688598Correct.
>>561693031and now I'm stuck because I was an idiot and don't have the money to recover, I think I'll use the money cheat to get me out of this, I'm not starting again.
>>561693031>not being able to do most missions because I know I'll just get stuckThat was my issue the very first time I played. So I got frustrated and gave up. Then I yarhar'd the full game and it's a lot more enjoyable. Game is just really hard if you don't know what you're doing. It explains fuck all. Then when it does, sometimes it leaves it up to interpretation.
>>561693947I'm happy to learn as I go and a bit of frustration can be rewarding, but if I'm 40 hours in and still can't really use trucks then something is a bit off.
I love Pennsylvania. Honestly I'd probably get ATS if it was included, but seems like the East Coast is lowest priority.
>>561698989It's not that it's the lowest priority, it's that they're not even near getting there yet. How would you get to Pennsylvania if the furthest you can go currently is Missouri? Also they'll have scaling issues, I think they'll have to change the scale as the East Coast states will be very strange.
>>561699258A plane. I'm just seething because I think the East Coast is prettier than the West Coast. The Western States do have a lot of nice nature, but there's tons of ugly post 1970 housing developments. The 13 colonies have the lion's share of the older, and thus better, buildings. PA and MA are what I think of when I think of America DESU. I know that's just romanticism but that's the image that appears in my mind.
>>561699513Unfortunately many people think of California when they think of America, that's probably why ATS started there.

>>561694115How much of Alaska have you done? Try doing some of those missions if you're low on money in Michigan. Money seems hard to come back at the start. I did a logging mission that took me forever. It banked 22k but I had to buy like 20k worth of logging equipment to make it work. So I'm not entirely sure how you're supposed to do it.
>>561705585You know, I never thought about doing the other maps, the tutorial even takes you to Alaska and says you can do Michigan later but I went back, maybe I made a mistake.

Are there any historic servers for AC?I would like to do some casual racan for stuff like AC legends or really anything before the 2000s.

>people find being spun around in circles funI don't like rides irl. I went on a big rollercoaster once and hated it.
>>561784171I hate thrill rides. Always have ever since I was a kid.
>>561595075It's a cool idea. My problem with it was that you needed to join a clan for any real cooperation. Otherwise it's just randoms coming to drop off 1,000 machine guns which are promptly picked up by noobs who sprint at enemy positions. You may say that's obvious, but there's games like Squad and War of Rights where you can still get pretty sophisticated cooperation in pub games. Those are admittedly on a much smaller scale.
>>561784431>go on a school trip to thorpe park>go on barely any rides because I don't like them>friends badger me into going on a proper rollercoaster, Nemesis Inferno>it was all a blur, and just felt like I was being thrown around all over the place>people screaming as if it was fun>looked down and couldn't get my head back up because of the g forces>I did not look happy in the photo at the endIt probably wasn't a good one to go on as my first 'proper' rollercoaster, but I have no desire to go on one again.
>>561785025I've never been on a proper coaster. My sister and cousin took me on The Beastie when I was a kid. The Beastie is a baby coaster for babies and I hated it.Also this one time I almost fell out of the log plume(Congo Falls). When I say almost fell out, I mean I was airborne and my mom had to pull me back down. I guess I wasn't strapped in properly. Almost became a statistic.
>>561786472Funnily enough Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park was probably the only ride I liked and I went on it about four times. You go up, come down, and hit some water, you get a bit of air time and are not being spun or thrown around. Falling out sounds terrifying though.
>>561788539Real. It was probably what got me to hate thrill rides.
>>561784171>>561784431>>561785025>>561786472>>561788539Rollercoasters and thrill rides are the closest your body will get to doing fighter maneuvers outside of an aircraft.

Sometimes it feels like collecting modules is the hobby, not actually flying the damn things. Staying proficient in multiple airframes takes way too much free time.
found an old external disk drive lying around, maybe i should give my old copy of Silent Hunter 4 an install...
I wonder if becoming an acrobatics pilot is less expensive and time consuming that an airliner one. At one hand just getting or renting an aircraft like pic rel has to be giga expensive. But on the other having to have a lot of hours to become a FO is difficult.
>>561942656If I remember correctly, the Vertigo is a turboprop (unless that's also just someones airshow name), so that's easily a $1-2M plane.
>>561944620Vertigo is the name of the team that created the model for XP. The name of the airplane is Zivko Edge 540. Is expensive but not crazy expensive. Specially for an airplane which you could theoretically use to earn money doing airshows or for teaching. At least compared to a Cirrus Vision.
>>561945596Nobody is gonna let a random do stunts at an airshow. My teacher was a commercial pilot became a stunt/warbird pilot. Id imagine you would need to be active in a aeroclub and have a lot of sticktime, way more than average FO.

Final RFP is out. In just a year I went from hoping they would choose the M-346 to hoping they don't.
The Sahara is the nice place to explore if you like your wilderness huge and unforgiving.Bonus points for not using GPS of course.
>>561971301Clearly the Aeralis is the best choice
>>561971463I'm never flying there again, I was traumatised after the last time I flew across it.
>>561972057"We need a new plane !""What it must be ?""The most fuckingly dull-looking you can make it".
>>561972224What happened ?
>>561972335To be honest it doesn't look that different from any other trainers, arr new trainers rook same.>>561972446Flew across the Sahara in a King Air, got really disorientated and lost as even at 30,000ft it looked like the ground was a foot below me and just stretched infinitely out in every direction, I nearly ran out of fuel and had to land as some random air strip in the arse end of nowhere in Mauritania at night. The flight out in the day was nice though.
>>561960504They downgraded so hard from Sims 3 to 4.
>>561973134I don't know why they got rid of the open world aspect, it was great.
>>561971301Lost all credibility ditching the carrier requirement.
>>561973246They got rid of everything, shit even the second game had more stuff to do at launch than the current one does to date. Open world was universally praised and they thought everyone wanted loading screen mobile slop.
>>561972057Have you heard that allegedly the UK isn't willing to fund GCAP? I hope that's not true. >>561973282penny pinching is all the rage these days. Those funds need to be diverted to fatten up some private equity.
>>561973486Shit I haven't but reading an article now, sounds like we're dragging our feet about funding. Labour are fucking idiots, they are claiming to increase defence spending so it would be ridiculous if they don't fund GCAP. I've also seen that Poland are interested in joining it.
>>561973743I've long lost hope for european military projects. I was still hopeful with GCAP because every single member had experience with 5th gens and hadF F-35 FACOs, on top of all agreeing on a 2035 deadline for IOC. If things start to go south either by lack of funding or by allowing other members then I have little hope for the project. Poland can't contribute with anything in the project and it would be an instantaneous delay even if they were a minority member, Germany would bring the same shitshow of the Tornado and EF2000. If we lose the UK we lose a shitload of tech for the engines etc. Japan has made some incredible prototype engines, but they don't have the expertise of RR.I bet the US is behind this somehow.
>>561974196>every single member had experience with 5th gens and hadF F-35 FACOsMy bad, only Japan and Italy have a FACO outside the US. The UK doesn't have one.
>>561974196>I bet the US is behind this somehow.Well they've been selling their expensive F-35 defense package everywhere. That must have crippled the R&D budget of buyer countries.
>>561972782Above Tanezrouft I suppose ? I'm keeping it for the end of my Sahara trip. Eastward there's more relief (and a few much needed VOR), the Ahaggar mountains in particular are beautiful.
Tassili range NW of Djanet
>>561979193I can't remember nor find information on my exact route, I think I plotted it on Skyvector, I'll have a look.
>>561972335>why aren't they making a 3 engine, forward swept swing wing, VTOL tailless stealth trainer??
>>561978619I mean in a more direct way. Under Taco, the US even sent people both in Italy and Japan to send the message that a 6th gen was impossible without the US. They really do not want any kind of autonomy from what they call "allies". They just want slaves.

A brown robot beat me in go karting
>>561983362>forward swept wing trainerWhy not ?Also yeah I understand that trainer are supposed to be basic; but look at the Alpha Jet, the Mitsubishi T-4, the Yak-130/M-346... They're good looking beasts.
>>562007028*blocks your path*
>>562008157Oh yeah you can block my path anytime you want baby
>>562009583Fuck my eyes spazzed out and I thought I was looking at a dieselpunkesque plane for a minute. Imagine that they're not flying to the left, but to the right, it'd be kino to have the cockpit at the back with the fuselage laid out in front. Looks like something out of Thunderbirds.

>>562011661The worst part about dying in a plane crash would be having to listen to those fucking idiots in your final moments.
>>562007028>Why not ?Complexity and no real benefit. Had the Berkut became the main frontline fighter of the USSR then you could argue that a trainer with FSW would make sense, but nowadays why would you want a trainer with a flight envelope that is not similar to what you're going to be flying post graduation?

About Road Kings : I came home and tried it a bit on controller because i could not be arsed to put my wheel on and everything.Right now the game looks like straight ass. Antialiasing straight out of satan's anus, motion blur you cannot turn off. But everyone is complaining about this and their other games don't look like shit like that so i guess it will be fixed. Also the LODs are really aggressive, shit straight up popping in front of you. I'm not so sure about this, because its a thing in their other games too, but less of a problem because you usually go slow. It stutters like a mofo too but its a beta so whatever.The driving physics/overall feelings blows ATS/ETS2 straight out of the water. There's no question here. Seems like they weren't retarded and actually have proper wheel support, cannot confirm how good it is yet.The truck feels heavy, you cannot just stop in 0,5 seconds. The suspension actually works, the cab moves around. From what i've seen, braking like a retard actually makes you wear your disks quickly, and you're supposed to use the jack brakes. And i did, and got a warning because i did so in an urban area, so its pretty cool. Same if you blow past stops. You also get points for good driving (not sure what those points does but whatever, love some good boy points)The game is built around a system of jobs, other AI truckers can actually take them before you, but also you actually have to take your mandatory break, drive a maximum of x hours a day, and all that shit. Otherwise you can be fined, just like in real life. Its pretty much trying to be a trucker sim, and not only a truck sim.I'll talk about the more worrying stuff in my next post.
>>562029317The kinda worrying part is : There's also the "road events". The very beginning of the game got you rolling on a fucked up highway, but like really fucked up, after a tornado or some shit. Like you're straight up driving down a half-collapsed bridge. And there are supposedly a bunch of similar events supposed to play during the game.For me, it feels too much, borderline retarded and takes you out of the immersion. They either need to tone down those or just rethink the game.The kinda good news is : They're actively asking about it in their survey. I think they're not sure themselves about it. So they're asking people how they feel about it. Perhaps if enough people actually want a seem and not this wacky stuff, they'll rework it.In short, the game seems like it got the bones to be a great sim, or a least a great immersive sim-cade game. And the potential to shit all over ATS and ETS if the devs aren't retarded, at least from a gameplay standpoint.Oh, i also forgot, you can blow up your tires, and overall management of your truck seems like a big thing too. I haven't played too much so i cannot go into details about everything. I've probably forgot a bunch more, so feel free to ask, i'll answer if i can.

Newsreel/clip about FDF sim training. Can anyone indentify the sim?https://yle.fi/a/74-20217496
Might be a weird question, but are there any games that simulate heavy traffic in various environments at varying speeds, and the core gameplay is designed around how well you deal with that traffic as a player in a more realistic way? I feel like that isn't as retarded of an idea for a game as I think it might be.
>>562063872sending us tomahawk missles right now
>>562025007>turned a regular trainer into VSTOLOdd choice, but it looks neat. Although I wish they went with Yak-141 instead.
>>562062907Modded ETS2 or ATS is probably what you're looking for. AC if you'd rather race through traffic.There are a bunch of shitty "learn to drive" sims like City Car Driving and CityDriver, but they aren't doing much that BeamNG can't do better.
>>562029317>>562029697Interesting, I don't think it will replace ATS but it sounds like it has potential, the EXTREME conditions stuff sounds nonsense though, you could tell it would be like that when they included a tornado to the steam page screenshots.
>>562045214Finally, I'll probably actually get this now
>>562071129Nah it won't replace it, but the potential is real. I just hope they go away with their retarded "road events" or tone them down really hard, and instead polish the game.
>>562061068It looks a bit dated, it's not Falcon BMS is it?
>>562071394Aren't most Saber games shit on launch?
>>562071129>you could tell it would be like that when they included a tornadoStill pissed there are no good stormchasing sims with wheel support.
>>562075746I'm swear I saw one in development but can't remember the name
>>562075827OUTBRK has support for low-end wheels with Rewired, but no headtracking or VR. $35 for an EA game that's somehow worse than fucking Roblox.
>>562029317>and you're supposed to use the jack brakes.I'm happy to hear this. I was thinking about this the other day. I'm guessing the game is still in the alpha stage if it looks like shit. I couldn't imagine it coming out looking like ass. They make nice looking games if anything.
>>562025007I'm creaming my pants.

DS2 done for, back to simming. Is coaches released yet?
>>562091028His autism was so strong it resonated on a higher plane of existence and was sensed by the developer with autist powers.
>>562091190No and neither are cars, I honestly thought they'd be out soon but it looks like they're going for Illinois first for ATS.
I got the mega jackpot lads, pure luck, it has to just randomly bounce into the middle. The game is still rough but the dev is pumping out fixes so I think it'll take a while but be in a decent place in the future.

Then 2 sec later they eat it into a wall because they can't actually control the car at all but I still lose SR from a driver that pitted me then kekked himself right after in a separate immidiate incident. He DNF the race but I still get penalised from some methhead deciding I looked like a movable obstacle before allahu akbaring right after. I don't get it. I can see him in my head, sweating through his thin moustache gritting his teeth from the methadrenaline as his eyes widen seeing my rear, "I am gay" he thinks, "I must have this rear" he pants under his breath, practically leaking semen out of his eyeballs as I frantically try to get out of his way to no avail, only to finally be gaped by this sweating Methxican and drag my sorry loose anus to the pit lane while he triumphantly boulders onward completely pleased with his efforts only to snap off instantly
>>562091028So its a VTOL Compass? They did say at one point they wanted to make faction specific but similar aircraft, so I guess that's a step in that direction.

W*r Th*nder has the potential to be so much more, it pisses me off. There will never be another game with as many historical vehicles as this one.

Starting to get it, just stick to 1.0 ATA on approach and go for a three point landing and you'll be good.I had bought the Blacksquare Starship but I'm a bit disappointed, it's nice and complete but the visibility is bad and it suffers from oscillation when changing pitch trim during descent, more than any other plane I've tried.Kind of waiting for the A2A RG550 now.
>>562326003I keep telling myself one of these days I'll get serious about the F-16 or the JF-17In the meantime I'm making planes in Flyout

Fuck, 2024 is finally on sale. Should I?
>>562405352Where is it on sale?
>>562406090Microshit store.
>>562406372I see, it's on sale for the same amount as when it was in the Steam Spring Sale. 2024 is an upgrade, it looks better, the planes flies better, it runs better, and it doesn't take up 500gb+. It's not a night and day difference, the career mode is still buggy but honestly only normies care about that. I think it's better and wouldn't be able to go back to 2020, but it's up to you mate, it also has lots more planes even in the base edition that aren't shit.
>>562406557>and it doesn't take up 500gb+That's a huge selling point to me. Also, the T-38.
>>562406865The game itself is something like 7gb, it streams most things, but the rolling cache still exists so if you set that to 200gb it'll still take up that much space. You don't need amazing broadband for the game, I'm on 60mbps and it's enough but I do have to briefly wait after starting a flight for things to load, loading overall is very quick now but your first load into the game might take a while. I'm upgrading to 500mbps next month which will be good.
>>562404387understandable, we went electric in the 20s so most of our stuff is that
>>562405352>>562406557If you fly tubes you might not notice much, but VFR GA flights and helicopters at low-level are pretty close to night and day with 3D trees and ground terrain upgrades. Sky looks better too
>>562407517Yeah the ground looks fucking great in 2024 at low level, huge difference.
Littlebird tea tastes good.
>>562407517>FR GA flights and helicopters at low-levelThat's pretty much all I do.

>>562410950The T-37 freeware is really nice for that. It can reach up to 400kts if you don't care about fuel consumption (cruises well at 250).And it's a trainer so it's nimble and aerobatics ready.

>>562410950>a) small and nimble for buzzing around and admiring the views and zooming between buildingsHelicopters are ideal for this. You see a lot of casuals attempt it in the Hornet, too, but you probably want a trainer jet. Default L-39 is kind of shit but better than nothing. T-45 is good, Hawk T1 is better, according to one lad M346 is best.
>>562427169I recommend the Fouga Magister, old enough to have an interesting cockpit, tricky in crosswinds, not too fast. Also the T-33 if you fancy blasting around.
>>562412667Me and me mates would do them when we'd larp as a proper F1 race. Everyone has broken off to different path and we don't race anymore.But my go to way was to slow down a bit and let the torpedoes pass by, or torpedo myself for the fun
>>562436914huh? but f1 doesn't do rolling starts
>>562410950On the other hand, if you'd like something small, nimble, jet powered, and relatively slow, there's this >>562365595
>>562426298Must be those extra long arrestor cables.
>no huge chunks of mud sticking to the tiresfucking souless
>>562426298What's the purpose of the squiggly thingy on top of the canopy bubble
>>562450275Its explosives. When you eject it explodes the canopy.
>>562454020That doesn't sound nice at all
>>562454535Better than slamming your head at Mach fuck through the canopy
>>562454646Aren't there better methods of removing the canopy than blowing it up into a million pieces a couple inches above your head
>>562454818Yeah, but i guess there are reasons why they do this on some planes instead. I don't know why. Google it, find out and come back to explain it to me now.
>>562421320Unlike the Komet, the fuel won't dissolve you if you fuck up the landing.
>>562457856>Unlike the Komet, the fuel won't dissolve you if you fuck up the landing.Lame
>>562357227I always wonder if this is really necessary, but then I remember how retarded the average guy is
120 years old but unc still got it
>>562464814Jet fighters really did have more soul when they were just tubes wth wings.
>>562438970I meant in AC, F1 games I was (am) a master of fucking up the tyre warm up routine.
>>562466379My dream flying game would be a simcade in a fictional / AU setting that gives you an excuse to have every late 40s to early 60s gunfighter jet
>>562476641>an excuse to have every late 40s to early 60s gunfighter jetBest I can come up with is some sort of Mad Max scenario (I don't watch anime).
>>562454818Yes, like rockets that jettinson the canopy but it's not like they're inherently better. In some situations they are, in others you can't use anything else, like with the F-35.
>>562497718Just give pilots stronger helmets to smash their way through
>>562497794Or stronger necks.
>>562497718>like with the F-35Elaborate
>>562498760They give every F-35 pilot one of pic related and they have to smash their way out.
>>562498920But that's gonna ruin the stealth!
>>562498760detcord is better suited for low speed or low altitude ejections as it immediately destroys the canopy. Meanwhile rocket assisted ones perform better at higher speeds and altitude. For both cases we're still talking about extremely fringe cases as zero-zero seats and ejection envelopes are now the standard.
>>562499323A Red Arrows pilot died years ago after a zero-zero ejection malfunction
>>562499323>zero-zero seatsWhat's that
>>562499445I think I remember hearing about that and how MB tried to say it wasn't their fault. Hope that if it was the fault of someone, that they actually paid. >>562499534a seat that can safely eject you at zero altitude and zero speed.
>>562499697Can you eject inverted?
>>562499805Yes, depending on the seat. The modern ones should allow for almost a total envelope coverage.
>image limitI can't remember that happening before in /simg/
>>562502207flight sims are just airplane wallpaper engines with a lot of steps
>>562476641Nuclear Option devs keep talking about loose concepts of a Cold War era prequel. Community won't shut up about it, either.We need a simcade that tops out at Fox 2.>>562499805You could in the 50s before they learned about human spines.
>>562471135I mean irl, how do you larp f1 with things f1 don't do? or am I confusing things
