Shame they don't ship to the AU of S.

[DarkMellie]

Sweet!

I use the X-52, not sure what the differences are but you should absolutely buy it at $82!

[Ash_Williams]

I think I shall actually buy it at $82, thats a bloody bargain!

Shame they don't ship to the AU of S.

Yeah they do - there are some items they wont ship and some sellers only ship CONUS - but when I was looking at buying a joystick I almost bought a Thrustmaster from there and they would deliver to Aus.

If you can't find one though, use a reshipping service, it would still be cheaper.

Edit: I just checked, the one I linked will post to AU, $82.82 including P&H actually..

X-52 Pro for the win.

I've been using mine for years now and it's still working in top notch order.

sweet. finally figured out how to get the a380 flying on the plotted course now i could pretty much start flying this full time over the 747.

[cyclobs]

Awesome. Worked out all my nav stuff and computer systems in the a380 last landing was a bit interesting, toched down nice and and softly but aligning to the runway was quite difficult as i had to do it totally manually (still working out the computer system) been a while since a landing has made me sweaty.

My only problem with the a380 is that the ATC doesn't reconise it correctly brcause of its shear size so i can get guited to the gates. Might be a matter of fixing the airport max wing span (the atc uses the wing spand to determin what sized gate you should gonon. Currently its only set for thr rur as the max). Fix up the airports as i go should sort it all out will start doing fspassengers flights in it tomorrow maybe or do a bit more practice

just finished downloading DCS world thanks to the GON mirror

i havn't bought anything so you get the Su-25T, the quick mission thingo and a small campaign or something. pretty cool for freeness, but without any kinda tutorials...

Less than 5 weeks and I'm already out of the loop! What is DCS World exactly?

[v4moose]

there was a thread about it somewhere, hangon...

viewtopic.php?f=265&t=192154

basically a unified 'launcher' for all their games, coming with their new game the P-51. all the other games are being updated to work with world.

its in beta atm. they gave us a Su-25 (imported from flaming cliffs 2) to mess around with in the interim i guess

[DarkMellie]

What an excellent idea!

[brimlad]

yes it's a great development, and besides the official DCS products being intergrated into DCS world they are licensing 3rd party developers to add more modules/planes the first being the Fishbed mig-21b developed by becl.

ASSASSIN'S CREED 3 IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Don't mind me just sitting here with a massive grin on my face.

Epic trailer was epic. Assassinations that don't halt you (you can keep running while doing the assassination). Being able to jump through some buildings for travel and escape. Epic scale fights. Omg we have FINALLY gotten our true AC successor and I can't wait!!!!!

And was that George Washington he tried to assassinate at the end? Should be mighty interesting.
