    You did a great job and presented such a wonderful map, I didn't know there were such beautiful landscapes from the sea to snowy mountains, glaciers, beautiful characters for aircraft carriers, warships and submarines parking, this map is divine for recording videos in different scenarios, all praise and because of you I will buy it because you presented it best, support for the channel 🤗🤗

      Thank you! Yes it continues to improve all the time too, so much still for me to explore as well. Some more scenarios is exactly what this map needs I think

    I 100% agree a lot of the frustrations and criticisms about DCS comes from unrealized expectations. ED is partly to blame for this because they build the hype train and promote DCS as though it can do more than it really can. They over promise and take forever to underachieve their promises. With that said, DCS still has a ton to offer and the enjoyment comes when you understand what it is good at and focusing on that. I have never had more fun in a computer game than when my friends and I get together and run BFM/ACM exercises straight out of the USAF manuals or practice surface attack tactics from real world syllabus. It is all about focusing on what DCS is good at and letting go some of the hype. And you are right about taking the long perspective. If you look back at what they have achieved over the past five years, we have come a very long way and I have every expectation that this growth will continue long into the future. It is a bright future but it won't be here tomorrow and that is okay because I have more modules that I need to learn well than I have time for. Sorry for the hits life is throwing at you but I think you know that everything eventually ends and whatever bad you are experiencing right now will someday be a faded memory. Fair winds mate.

      Appreciated mate, yeah hoping things will align & will be back on soon. As for DCS development you're right, them promoting things early can be a bit of a double edged sword. But I think looking back over the history, anything announced has generally been about 4-5ys to completion, so that's what I personally assign to any project announced. Having those expectations I'm not usually fustrated

    Greetings Lanky, what impresses me most about this map is your mastery of the Huey ha ha ha.

      Haha thanks! I don't think too many flying instructors would agree with the way I toss it around. Lots of fun to fly tho

    Ya, track replay has always been an issue but, for some reason, works much better in some modules than others. The F-86, for example, seems to have a really good replay. You can go a half hour or more and the file won't corrupt. Of course, I haven't tried it in complex missions.

    • @lankypilot778

      Interesting, not sure what modules I've been in trying it but rarely get more than 3-5 mins in before i end up hitting terrain. I like to stay in cockpit flying a mission, but get very jealous watching all these amazing trailers & missing out on all those sexy outside shots during combat!

    Hello. Do you think this map is worth for 35 USD ? I still can't decide whether to buy or not to buy. It's on sale right now.

    Australia calls it soccer? Interesting. I thought that was just a North America thing.

      "Football" in Australia refers to AFL, Australian Rules Football. More commonly just called "footie."

    hard agree with the track replay criticism, needs some love but I think there's more important things of course.

    • @lankypilot778
      @lankypilot778  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh yes I'd agree, I just threw that out there because it's the longest bug I know of.. over a decade now! I rarely go into outside views in game so it would be good to be able watch missions back, but I'm fine with them prioritising other areas.
