Falcon... I've been playing it since the beginning of the 90s and after every long break I have to learn the systems again :D Luckily I still have all of my FALCON big boxes (1 - 4) with a total of over 1000 pages of manual :D.

Should be worth updating that BMS has updated to include a full-fidelity F-15C cockpit. It feels a lot better to fly than the F-15C Flaming Cliffs 3 module for DCS World, but obviously DCS World is going to look a whole lot better. If you're interested in flying the F-15C, this is worth looking into. It's also only $8 when not on sale; flight simmers are missing out if you're not at least checking this out.

Thanks for taking the time to do this, and maybe get some new users comfortable with stepping up to this simulator. The $6.99 they spend on Falcon 4.0 will be the best buy of their simulator lifetime.. The true dynamic campaign alone in single and multiplayer is still untouched by any other simulator, and the upcoming 4.38 graphics will bring it up to modern graphic standards.

hello! today something weird happened to me in a bms mission. I was doing BARCAP, i orbited around 30 minutes my last waypoint waiting for an enemy plane when a 21 appeared on the rwr, so i knew that it was a MiG 21 and locked onto it, and asked AWACS and it confirmed me that it was hostile, i ended up shooting down 2 planes that the AWACS listed as "bandit" but when i landed it said that i shot down a f16c and an A10. Can the AWACS give wrong info? or what could have happened?
@AviationPlus7 ай бұрын
When you declared the 16 and A10 might have been in the way or in a furball making the missile accidentally go after them. Did you shoot in STT and did you support the missile all the way to pitbull?

This is not a game, it's a simulation you can't jump in and "blow stuff up." The F-16 is easy to fly around the flagpole but using it as a weapons system is another matter, not to mention landing it. You will die a million times and not understand why, you will get frustrated why you can't lock on, fire missiles, or drop bombs. Like the video said read up and watch videos. Full disclosure the simulation is too much for my tiny brain I only play the furball scenarios. I'll too lazy to put in the time and effort to learn all the systems to become a true sim pilot warrior. Also, without a modern HOTAS it's very hard to remember what does what. Damn now I have to get back in the simulation and learn this stuff. Liked and subscribed.

The number of video tutorials and beginner-friendly guides for DCS is a symptom of poor documentation. 😉 That said, there's been an explosive growth in the amount of BMS content since 4.37 was released.
@theack7777 ай бұрын
It may be poor documentation but I'm going to tell you that there are many people in this world, me included, that learns much better with Hands-On and can see pictures and stuff like that as opposed to just reading a book and then trying to fly the aircraft after reading about it. Some people learn much better without all the reading. I love reading and I read well I just don't learn how to do things well by just reading a book and then trying to do it I'm much better with Hands-On I can learn instantly
@AviationPlus7 ай бұрын
Neither can be replaced by the other so both must be used. However, videos will never be as detailed as documentation without literally following the documentation anyway. The issue is that most people would rather watch 5 two minute videos with bits and pieces of information than a 1 ten minute video that covers everything.
@ShadeAKAhayate6 ай бұрын
No, it's a symptom of customer care. Since BMS is for enthusiasts by enthusiasts, there are no 'customers' and, as such, we have what we have. DCS ingame scripted tutorials do the job of getting a man that's somewhat competent in the air very decently. And if that man later wants to improve upon that basic level of competence, there is thorough documentation to do so. It's the best way to engage, since people don't need to do a read up just to start their engine and align their instruments -- their 'emulated IP' tells them how to do all that in the process while they are already playing. And that is fun, which is known to engage people (reading technical documentation, on the other hand, is not fun and engaging for total most). For BMS, often the best way to learn something is not reading the documentation (often without any idea of what should you even look for), but looking for video manual from a player, which would act as an aforementioned emulated IP ersatz. He will do this job worse than a dedicated one, you will lose significantly more time, you will not be playing a game during this time -- but it's still the better way. Again, when you need to figure out some details not mentioned in the video -- at least you'll know what you'll be looking for. All in all, I hope BMS will sooner or later support those tutorial features with cockpit scripts, control highlighting and all that, and people who are good enough with this will do series of similar tutorials. It will only help the project and the community.
