Not to take anything away from his learnings, because he has managed to pick up the game far quicker than any of the friends I've helped - but I assume that his prior experience with the VTOL VR game helped. Although not at the same level of complexity, it should still give some kind of framework and basic knowledge in many fields. A framework which you could then build on and help expand with your experience.
Hi Drewski and thanks for the support. Several of the DCS aircraft do have Oculus Touch interaction with the cockpit including stick, throttles, buttons, switches, dials, etc. This includes the free TF-51D. Thanks
Hah yea. "Wags" is not only a dev. He's THE community Manger and for me in person the voice of dcs too. He's doing a hell of a job to stay in touch with the players via the forum and other social media. And I imagine it's not allways easy to stay as polite as he does with the.... Let's say temperamental kind of people amongst the DCS community.
@@florianb.553. Actually, senior producer. We have a couple of other guys that are our community managers. I just like to poke my nose in from time to time. Thanks
T B6 prob about 30min to 1hr my new friend did it like 2nd try and hes using xbox controller i still cant land on carrier very easily plus i dont fly the hornet any more i fly F-16C A-10C and F-15C but i havent flown the f15 very recently
@@D00kerT No one calls it a velocity indicator, idk where that term for that came from but it's just wrong. Everywhere it's just called a 'flight path marker'. We like to call it 'fat bob' cuz it looks like a fat man with little arms sticking out the side.
DCS AI are interesting. On the one hand, in terms of tactics they are total boobs with the intelligence of a calculator. In a plane that sticks out its chest and smashes people (Eagle, Tomcat, etc) it's not tooo hard to pin them against the ropes and make them an offer they can't refuse. But if you're in a plane that relies heavily on stealth and deception (Mirage, Flanker, etc) then you quickly discover that the AI have Godlike omniscience. Hiding behind a mountain? They see you. Firing a silent heatseeker into their blind spot? They react instantly. I like to think I'm pretty good in the Mirage. Online I can deceive F-14 pilots all day. I play them like the Raptors in Jurassic Park (you're looking forward, but the attack comes from the side). Against the AI that kind of crap doesn't work. He will see you, and Just. Keep. Coming. Very different experience.
9:08 "you're testing all of the oxygen and the warning systems." Then there's me who just fires up the engines as quick as possible and forgets to even arm the ejection seat 80% of the time.
This actually made me smile big, and even tear up a couple of times. I love DCS, and I understand that proud feeling when you learn and understand something. I've seen a couple of your videos in the past, but this deserved a sub. And thanks to ralfi for being such a cool dude(like always, but yea).
Holy crap today I was studying for finals with Top Gun on in the background and I thought “when will Drewski do a DCS video” and then I check TH-cam and here it is!
DCS is one of the most underated milsim style games available. That first kill is a feeling you don't get in most games nowadays. Also Ralfidude is the god of DCS. Def keep up the uploads. Solid work.
There desperately needs more dcs youtubers. It's a amazing game once you've taken the time to learn it with friends. It's frustrating and a grind to learn but always worth it if you put the time in
So we have now 4 Variants. Hand Crafted (kinda its not to detailed) Half a Country, Handplaced auto made planets in a solar system, Completly automade whole galaxy and mix of hand crafted and automade whole earth with satelite images which are at least somehow detailed.
lol the funniest thing is the guy that plagiarized you also went through the ringer on forums because he claimed to be an L39 pilot when he's never flown it haha
I just started with DCS last week and am very hooked. I wish I would have a teacher or could find one. For now, I am learning from videos here. But I understand your experience. The first time I managed to land my F18 I was so proud of myself. Not for the fact that I got the plane down but that I stuck through the hardships and learning until the first time the plane did not crash. Seeing your progress gives me hope but I still have a lot to learn. Thank you so much for sharing!
I know this video is old and you won't see this, but I'd like you to take a moment to acknowledge and appreciate just how far you've come in DCS since this video. You got to experience it as a trickle, but I got to see it in the span of a few hours - and the difference is incredible! Keep up the awesome work.
I've been watching training videos after training videos for weeks with great concentration and fun as I apply the knowledge in the air! The game is great! Grim Reapers are a group of guys that are a blast to fly with and have wonderful training videos as well. Drew this is the best not so intended buyers review of the game as well! Thanks!
Thanks for taking time to appreciate/explain the science of flight. Flight is very simplistic, but gets exponentially more complex with every added variable; like flying at night, flying in wind, IFR, coordinated turns, stalls, communication etc.. I love hearing different perspectives of aviation! Great video! 👌🏾
THIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSS is the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet, and it is one of the most versatile multirole combat jet currently on market, and now I will show you whyyyyyyyyyyyy. Then I will do a few sorties, and then I will give it a DrewScore™
I'm 10 days into DCS with the F/A-18 and P-51D. Last night spent a few hours trying to follow 5 other pilots doing close, slow, low altitude formation flying. Obviously they've been doing this awhile. Something to aspire to.
Tamburello_1994 Spudnocker makes good content. I’m not saying his plagiarism isn’t a bad thing. But you can’t just blanket-statement say that his entire channel is bad and Drewski is good just because of this incident. They are both good.
@@maerus5227 Not just the plagiarism. Perhaps it was spuds offering flight time for money while posing as a real pilot that he was exposed of earlier this year. Fool me once..... Its not about dude's channel -- its about dude himself, with all due respect.
I'm so glad to see that my main game is getting some attention. DCS has a really steep learning curve but please don't let this stop you from trying it. Once you've reached a level where you feel comfortable with the aircraft of your choice this game will turn into something beautiful.
I’m actually glad to hear you got someone that was experience with the game to help you because I’ve watched quite a few videos from growling sidewinder who has mentioned if you needed any help or you wanted someone to help you with anything to like send him a message or whatever while I did, but he flat out ignored me.
Having followed your brothers on their channels, I never really followed you since you played games I never messed with. Matt, or Mark, usually kept us up with you so that was all I really needed. Now, though, you have ventured into my area by entering into the flight sim world. You are entering in to a rabbit hole that you may not get out. Poor Doc Lee will not recognize his baby boy before long now. Tread lightly young one, flight simming is not for the faint of heart, nor the light of coin for that matter. :D Glad to see you here young Drew, enjoy, but try your hardest not to get sucked down into that rabbit hole.
Ah now it makes sense that ralfie said in one of his last streams he has someone in training atm and that we will see soon enough (or something like that).
been watching ralfidude for a couple of years now. he's the bomb. went back and watched most of his vids. he's that entertaining. congrats on getting to fly DCS
Hey Drewski, thanks for making this video. We need all the new players we can get. Once you get into DCS other games can be a bit dull and lack mental challenge. Cheers for taking it up.
First ever PvP player kill was the single most thrilling and satisfying thing I've ever done in a video game, especially since it was my Mirage M2000-C that I spent weeks flying in training servers and pve servers, but all that work paid off when I put down an F-15 Eagle, a FAR superior plane to a mirage lol. Can't wait to see some more DCS content drewski, and working with ralphi is gonna give you the best edge you can get.
microsoft sim x and x-plane 11 both also have the entire world, but that's basically google maps+ some 3d and modeled airports/cities, fs2020 is about to take it a step-up ;)
The effort you put into your videos is unbelievable. I tend to scroll through videos to watch the highlights, but I just don't want to miss anything you put out.
@@happydogmachine yh I think it helps if you have a community to get into the game with. Don't know how iv avoided this game so far as I am a complete av-geek and I have seen all the Jets in the game at airshows being put through their paces 😂
As someone who has flown combat flight simulators since 3 years old (idk if Finest Hour on a 386 counts as a simulator) there is something about it. I remember my first conscious memory of it. “Rowans Battle of Britain” I swung in behind a JU88. I placed my gunsight on his left engine. And fired. Smoke... then fire. And down he went. I was six years old. And there it was. An air to air kill in simulator mode “realistic controls”. It doesn’t matter if it’s an AI. Your first victory on full simulator difficulty in a “real” environment is something special you never forget.
Yessss! Come fly with us at the 162nd. I’d love to fly with my favorite mil sim content creator. Love the video, glad you’ve gotten to experience DCS as the freedom delivery simulator that it is. You need the F14 Tomcat though. It’s made out of testosterone & bald eagles and soaks seats everywhere it goes.
@@jeepaholic326 It has improved a LOT since then. No more 8G airframe failures. Unless you fly it like an absolute orangutan, you'll black out as the pilot long before you rip the wings off these days. Most of my deaths in the Tomcat are a result of unconscious impact with terrain.
as soon as I saw the title I was like yes finally and you should play with ralfidude... but you where a step ahead on that one haha. nice flying drew!!
I JUST found out about this game and thought it would fit right in your wheel house. Super glad you picked it up and look forward to more DCS content from you.
That was so cool following your journey, the heart rate pumping ,that thrill at the end of helping the B52. I am 61 and I love my jets and am on that journey too! Full throttle is the only way guy's& gals . 🤙
I don’t know why but there is something cereal about flying in the air I love watching it and I love partaking in it just being up there virtually and physically is beautiful
Welcome to the DCS community! As you expand and grow into further planes, I'd like to recommend the F-14 Tomcat and the Mirage 2000C. The Tomcat is a beast. It's big, fast, shoots huge missiles from one side of a small country to the other, and does not hold your hand. It's a vintage muscle car with wings. If you make a mistake, GROUND. You will become a better pilot by getting good in the Cat. It will grow hair on your chest, and your upper lip. Also, no shit, it has a CASSETTE PLAYER and its own album of Top Gun-inspired original music written for DCS. The Mirage is the polar opposite. It's a slick little plane with highly augmented controls, but without the heavy artillery. To get kills in the Mirage, you've got to out-smart your enemies. Hide from them, deceive them, get close. A successful Mirage pilot brings a knife to a gun fight, and wins. Learning this plane will sharpen your evasion and situational awareness skills to a razor edge. In my opinion, the F-18 flies like a cement truck compared to these two planes. I never really liked the 18.
OperatorDrewski i liked you from the first time when i saw your VTOL video on youtube. But now you took the right decision to deal with DCS. Welcome to DCS World
For anyone getting into DCS or considering it, especially due to the price, the community is amazing and there is PLENTY of discord channels, that will welcome you into their wing and show you how to operate your module (aircraft). The DCS community is seriously amazing and you will never have a problem finding help or training, especially from a squadron actively searching for new players, so they can train them the way they want to fill roles they require! Yes, the sim is challenging, but very REWARDING! There is nothing like getting your first air kill or landing a bullseye with a dumb bomb. Most realistic sim out there, especially in VR (very demanding hardware)!
you did amazing for a newbie. Don't belittle your first kill. It is a great achievement. AI or player doesn't matter. It's all about achieving objectives which you did by protecting that bomber. I also think you absorbed more from ralfidude than you yourself know. I noticed when you encountered that enemy F-18, as soon as you took your shot you were immediately cranking to the side in probable anticipation for him firing back at you.
I was very surprised at how quickly you soaked up all the knowledge and managed to really click with the content. I'm a VERY proud virtual Senpai and it was great teaching an eager student like you.
Plez teach meh, sempai! 😂🤣 jk

Would love to see more DCS. Glad you enjoyed it.
Oh hell yeah! This just makes me more jealous... I'm saving to build a PC then get DCS xD
Yeah pls if you get f18 whatever you do read the manual of the aircraft,atleast the iff section
1. Ok lmao. 2. WTF is that name 😂😂.
@@Obi1-KenBone-Me u also know the pain ahah
I can't get enough from this kind if videos especially the f14 one he just make it perfect some how
"This probably the biggest videoclip map that has ever existed".
Fsx: Am I a joke to you?
just as i was wondering when my boi would make a video on dcs ! Love it !
Bros jaw is gonna drop if he realizes how big no man’s sky map is
That was so cool following your journey, the heart rate pumping ,that thrill at the end of helping the B52.
I am 61 and I love my jets and am on that journey too! Full throttle is the only way guy's& gals . 🤙
2:14 Microsoft flight simulator has a 1 for 1 recreation of the earth
Doubt it...they still can't decide on what map to use from year to year...
at one point they had only a recreation of hawaii
I don’t know why but there is something cereal about flying in the air I love watching it and I love partaking in it just being up there virtually and physically is beautiful
Wait till he try’s a2g now that’s some fun, also in my taste A10 is a lot more fun than hornet can’t wait to see you fly her
Glad you had fun with one of my favorite game, I would like to see more gameplay in the future.
19:17 what is that song called again??? Can someone tell me

Matteo thx mate :)
I glad you had fun. Its a great game once you learn it. It becomes addictive after a while
anyone else getting a weird name in notifications?
Yep, i feel you bro
Yup me too
Second time now
ye
Welcome to the DCS community!
As you expand and grow into further planes, I'd like to recommend the F-14 Tomcat and the Mirage 2000C.
The Tomcat is a beast. It's big, fast, shoots huge missiles from one side of a small country to the other, and does not hold your hand. It's a vintage muscle car with wings. If you make a mistake, GROUND. You will become a better pilot by getting good in the Cat. It will grow hair on your chest, and your upper lip. Also, no shit, it has a CASSETTE PLAYER and its own album of Top Gun-inspired original music written for DCS.
The Mirage is the polar opposite. It's a slick little plane with highly augmented controls, but without the heavy artillery. To get kills in the Mirage, you've got to out-smart your enemies. Hide from them, deceive them, get close. A successful Mirage pilot brings a knife to a gun fight, and wins. Learning this plane will sharpen your evasion and situational awareness skills to a razor edge.
In my opinion, the F-18 flies like a cement truck compared to these two planes. I never really liked the 18.
"Biggest map in gaming". Oh buddy no.
*laughs in Elite Dangerous*
Fly safe CMDR

This was so good and a huge thank you to the pilots that actually do this in real life to protect us from above we thank you and remain safe
Are u playing with mouse and keyboard or with a joystick?
It has been really cool to see your editing skills evolve and you picking up new tricks. Really liked the video. Keep up the solid work.
You'll be happy to learn the little bird is currently being developed for DCS
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssss
No one is making the little bird. Onlu helicopters that i know of that are beinh made is Mi-24, Ah-1, OH-58D kiowa, BO-105
ÆÆ æ that what i thought i think they out the AH-1Z on hold tho
So so sorry to burst everyone's bubble but to my knowledge there aren't any little bird variants being developped currently...
T B6 there arent any being developed

i liked you from the first time when i saw your VTOL video on youtube. But now you took the right decision to deal with DCS. Welcome to DCS World
Planes are really expensive in my country i really want to ride ajs 37 but :(
I love Viggen. One of the best mods in the game
get the fc3 plane they are cheap and good beginner planes
@@meher2096 not really
For anyone getting into DCS or considering it, especially due to the price, the community is amazing and there is PLENTY of discord channels, that will welcome you into their wing and show you how to operate your module (aircraft). The DCS community is seriously amazing and you will never have a problem finding help or training, especially from a squadron actively searching for new players, so they can train them the way they want to fill roles they require! Yes, the sim is challenging, but very REWARDING! There is nothing like getting your first air kill or landing a bullseye with a dumb bomb. Most realistic sim out there, especially in VR (very demanding hardware)!
if you crash you have to buy the plane again
SHIT
@@OperatorDrewski LMAOOO
Welcome to our world Drewski :) hope see to more DCS content in the future :)
Oh come on knock it off he already has ‘inspired by operator drewski’- message in his intro video you mentioned.
aleball87
Inspired =/= plagiarized from
That ending was really satisfying to listen to your reaction
Wow so you had a conversation with an ai b-52 huh? ;)
you did amazing for a newbie. Don't belittle your first kill. It is a great achievement. AI or player doesn't matter. It's all about achieving objectives which you did by protecting that bomber. I also think you absorbed more from ralfidude than you yourself know. I noticed when you encountered that enemy F-18, as soon as you took your shot you were immediately cranking to the side in probable anticipation for him firing back at you.
