Computer Gaming / Re: DCS Discussion
Last post by Old TImer - Today at 03:22:00 PMQuote from: Skoop on April 20, 2024, 02:25:55 PMQuote from: Jarhead0331 on April 20, 2024, 06:43:03 AMI recently started a thread on MSFS. Would love to see some more discussion about it around here. I've been buying new aircraft modules lately and wondering whether terrain packs are worth it too.
The terrain out of the box is pretty good when you have it set on ultra, I don't buy any terrain addons. If your favorite airport or city doesn't look good, I'd maybe think about it. I've been impressed with how good out of the box it is.
I've got the Chicago landmarks by Orbx. It's pretty good particularly at night. Almost looks real.
I also splurged and bought the PMDG 737. It's a study level plane and it's incredible how long it takes to load....haven't gotten to far into it but it will be a summer project for sure.

Last post by Sigwolf - Today at 01:13:11 PMI actually just restarted Fallout 3 on Xbox (last played in 2009). Once I finish that, I'm moving on to NV, then 4. The show definitely got me in the mood to revisit the games.

Last post by Womb4t - Today at 08:47:37 AMI love building in it. I start new characters with new challenges. I try new fighting styles. Bows are great, but try using daggers only. It's quite a fun experience. And I have never bothered with taming animals. I guess I'll have to reconsider that.

Last post by Redwolf - Today at 07:01:02 AMIs anybody else having buzz in DCS audio?
For me, a slight but noticeable buzz kicks in in the last 10% of the scenario entry loading screen. Buzz like radio interference. It is not there in the menus and during the first 90% of the loading of an airplane + map.
I thought it might be my soundcard but I just changed that and it stayed the same.

Last post by al_infierno - Yesterday at 06:07:12 PMI also reinstalled and started playing again. It strikes me how much better the game feels when you take a point or two of a weapon damage perk like Gunslinger. Just two points in that perk gives you +40% damage to pistols, which means you can shoot a lightly armored raider in the head and he drops instantly. So much better than that "shoot a guy in the face 40 times, reload, and keep mag dumping" combat in New Vegas and prior games, even with similar perks.
The new patch is rather obnoxious for PC players, since it doesn't really change much on PC and breaks a bunch of existing mods. Including a massive total conversion, Fallout: London, which was just recently released. I also read that the new ultrawide support stretches the game out, which isn't ideal.
Thankfully the only mod I use still works. If anyone on PC hasn't done so already, I recommend downloading the dialogue wheel mod, which makes it so you can see exactly what your character will say instead of the Mass Effect style wheel of vagueness.

Last post by Con - Yesterday at 02:59:30 PMAnyone else been inspired by the Fallout TV series to start playing again?
I am restarting Fallout 4 on my PS5 (Huge TV, comfortable couch, beer fridge in easy reach) and playing it with the new 56GB update patch that was released today for higher textures and optimized console gaming.
Have to say so far its much better than how I remember the PC version
