  1. 120's are working a lot better in 2.0, but they can still be defeated if you know how. I love flying the F-15, but my fav jet overall in lock on is the Su-33. Love the carrier ops and being able to do multirole.
  2. Mission is great and Grimes has made some changes. Looking forward to seeing more improvements in upcoming missions.
  3. Which Time period do you fly?

    I don't think your jumping on me, I understand what your saying. I have been in plenty of df's online, I also fly a lot more then Rugg does. It's not just point, fire and get a kill (unless you are fighting a noob). Even in modern fighting the missiles miss or can be defeated. I do think it is a good idea to know how to dogfight, just in case it comes down to that.
  4. I'm running a dual core 2.4, 4 gigs of ram and a 8800GT everything is maxed out except Mirrors, which I have found to not help me out much, just eating fps Heat blur, which I plan to turn on...just forgot to when I was setting everything up. It's not a big deal, just some nice eye candy Scenes are set to whatever the server runs at Mods installed F-15 by gys Su-27 by 3go A-10 by Simmod I get 25+ fps on the ground and anywhere from 40-120 in the air. I was thinking of building me a new computer this summer, but there is no need to as the game runs prefectly fine now. And it's the only game I play.
  5. nice recap, it's always fun to fly with squadmates
  6. Which Time period do you fly?

    1980+, Modern fighters, can't stand the old jets/airplanes.
  7. Where did they say the CD would cost $60?
  8. Random Pic Time

    That's in Guam, I was parked at the end of the runway many times in 2003.
  9. The only thing I'm getting is some news from his facebook page and family posting. Rugg knows what's going on, people have been updating our forums.
  10. You will see major FPS improvements in 2.0 than 1.12, my fps went up by 15-50% depending on my alt. You need less mods in 2.0 to make it look good. In 1.12 I had at least 20 mods installed and so far in 2.0 I have 3 mods (F-15, Su-27 and A-10 mods) The terrain looks amazing, the explosives are great, the color is much deeper and the sense of speed is better. Yes, some things are missing, but a lot of things have been added in. The best thing to do is see it for yourself, never just go by what others say.......it's only $30 bucks.
  11. Got well Striker, looking forward to talking to you again.
  12. It all depends on who you are, I haven't had any problems with it. Yes some features have been removed and some are new. To me, it is 10x better then 1.12. The features that are gone aren't deal breakers. I think they are going to fix a few things when they release the patch to make FC2 and BS compatible, they said it on their forums.
  13. As you heard the graphics are very good now. A few things that sucks about FC2 is you can't pick a custom loadout, skins (AKA paint job) or your tail number. A few things I love is you can change your loadout with exiting. You can choose how much fuel you want 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. The trigger system is nice, if the mission builder sets it up right. What I mean by trigger system is you can have a SAM site spawn in at a certain point, like if a jets crosses at line or have a airbase overran. There are a few things that need to be fixed also, the notch is too big, easy to notch a jets radar. Each missile hit counts as a kill. FC2 runs great on my system which is a dual core 2.4, 4 gigs and a 8800GT I get about over 40fps on the ground and 40+ in the air. The only thing I don't have on high is scenes, mirrors and heat blur. Which I have been meaning to turn them on, might do it tonight if I remember.
  14. Rockin' & Rollin' in San Diego

    I'm in Phoenix also and it sloshed the pool around pretty good.
  15. No kill like a..... missile kill

    Try a 54nm AIM-120 kill in lock on 1.12 against a 104th guy. I was up around 47k and fired about 14nm out of RMAX, gotta love TWS. He was up high also, the missile hit him still doing about 1,000.
  16. FC2 runs fine on my 8800GT, 2.4 dual core, 4 gig system. As Rugg said our squad had no problems getting things running, although I did have to call Rugg about a hotas issue. I was thinking about upgrading my system this summer, but if FC2 runs this good, then I have no reason too. Might as well save my money and go on a family trip, gotta make the family happy.
  17. I downloaded and installed it within 45 minutes. It took me a little time to set up my CH stuff, but after it got sorted out....WOW. My FPS are about 15-30% better then in FC 1.12. I don't have to have a ton of mods installed for it to look good. The only mods I have installed are the 3GO Su-27 and the New F-15C mod. Can't wait to someone makes a knee map mod again. I have flew it every day since it came out and everytime I fly it I love it even more.
  18. any word on fc2.0 release

    The nerve of those guys
  19. It uses the same map as Blackshark, on my system it runs better then FC 1.12 did. It looks 100x better, they fixed maddoging ET's, added bird strikes for the low flyers and some missiles can track targets lower the 10 meters. Overall I'm very happy with it...time will tell what is messed up with it.
  20. any word on fc2.0 release

    FC2 has been released today....check the lockon.ru forums
  21. Vehicles on runway

    Sorry that this got blown out of proportion. The military has strict rules regarding aircraft and vehicles especially when it comes to them trying to land or take off.
  22. How did YOU end up here at combatace?

    I here from BioHaz, but when it died, I didn't find out about this place til a friend told me. I somehow lost my other name and had to re-register.
  23. Vehicles on runway

    LMAO, like I'm the one that started this crap. I just tried to tell you that I have never seen nor heard of this. Then you come at me with your crap. My feelings weren't hurt, it takes a lot more then that. I was just trying to prove you wrong...which I did. And your comment about the 3rd grade crap just made you look dumb. Because you continued your insult by name calling. The best thing for you to do is be quiet and crawl back into your hole. Love ya
  24. Vehicles on runway

    Hag, maybe you need to go back and read my 1st post. I have been on the runway with an aircraft on it during a EPU emergency while it caught the barrier. So before you go around trying to act smarter then everyone else, do yourself a favor and make sure you understand what's being said. Yes, vehicles do get on the runway sometimes during operations and thqat's normally a bad thing.
  25. Vehicles on runway

    Maybe where you work that is allowed, but from what I have SEEN and HEARD....it doean't happen in the Air Force. So your comment on lack of knowledge or experience, you can keep that to yourself. The Air Force seems to do things safer sometimes. What aircraft was trying to land when you where doing 120? And where are you located at and work at?
