  • ECW Server, Redfor initially was being push back almost all the way to last few sectors but managed to regain some ground. Knowing Bluefor use Hama Airfield as their frontline base, i decided to fly the Mi-8 Hip to penetrate into the airfield and try to inflict as much damage as i can while buying Redfor some time to gain more grounds. Since the replay is bugged, most of the clip will be from the pilot POV when i was flying the Hip

      @@Rodz88 I’m surprised blue isn’t actively hunting you yet when they see you’re on. You do frontline drops as well right? When 2-3 ‘bluecord’ guys are on, they sometimes make flying chopper for me impossible. They will have 1 guy GCI and send 1-2 for me as soon as I take off. Changing farps doesn’t help and they admit to specifically target me for killing too much frontline and doing the stuff you showed in this vid. Perhaps this vid will earn you enough notoriety to get a dedicated hunting squad as well 😅

After been flying it for few months now, boy o boy. I realized her true potential especially in ECW. She is opposite of all the initial impression i had except for VRS, just be careful with it.

      VRS.. That's the only thing that i fear the most. You gotta look out for the sign of VRS about to happens especially when you slow down & airframe start to vibrate, you gotta prepare to add in a bit more cyclic.
      Oh yes, i would be rage quit if im in their shoes. I know how it feels, but some did quickly de spawn to avoid being slaughter. That was a wise choice. My goal is to deny them using Hama since that is their frontline base that F-5 can take off from.

  • @Solo6R
    @Solo6R 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Out of curiosity why do you prefer the Mi-8 over the Mi-24 for combat missions in all your videos? The HIND is more combat capable and can still transport troops. Is it just a personal preference thing and you just have more interest in the Mi-8?

    • @Rodz88
      @Rodz88  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I do fly the Hind. Infact Hind is actually my favourite helicopter. I do have many Hind videos on the mission i made public & some combat footage in Grayflag server.
      Reason being I choose the Hip instead because of how troop management works in ECW. Only Hip can carry normal troops & 3 squad of troops can deal serious damage to enemy frontline & take out almost all air defenses in a single drop. I couldn't afford to fly Hind & slowly take out 2 Roland SAM & 4 Vulcan AAA in a single ship Hind. It's suicidal.

      And stirr up we did. Flew together with a Hipbro. He got rid of all the Sam's and Vulcans. We ended up hovering over Hama for a solid 10 minutes due to insane server lag and because our troops couldnt get rid of the air defenses in one go. There were alot of blue jets in the area and i had 4x R60's with me but for some reason i couldnt shoot them. Hipbro unfortunately clipped his tail rotor on one of the buildings cause of the lag. I then rushed in, dropped my SOF in an attempt to capture the airfield and began cleanup with cannon and gunpods. On my way out i picked up my troops again and fled back to my farp but unfortunately i got downed by one of the F5's i farmed earlier. One of the best sorties i ever had.

      @ttpechon2535 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The graphics are great man! Especially the sunsets/rises. Also make sure to get Reshade, which makes everything look even better, and to get the Caucasus redone mod, you can also find some very good Reshade presets there too. The mod redoes all of the textures on the map, makes them a bit better and vibrant. These mods don't kill you fps either, I have a RX 480 on custom medium settings and I get around 50fps in single player, and 30-40 on MP.
      The default ground textures has to be low though so the min requirements aren't a 3090. Another reason for the ground textures being so low is that DCS is really fixed wing focused, and you won't see much of a difference in the ground textures at 10000 ft, and/or at 500 knots, so might as well save performance.

    • @Rodz88
      @Rodz88  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Well said. Yup. I used to have reshade on. The difference is day & night! But my own preset cost me few good FPS, so i stopped using it.
      I do use the Caucasus terrain mod too, It's freaking beautiful! But sadly it does pass multiplayer Integrity check. For the size of the map, i felt the terrain is pretty good.
