  • I just really hate the mirage I can't really put it into the cleanest of words how much I absolutely loathe and despise the mirage every single time I come across it in a multiplayer environment because I always have to think to myself "Is the really worth my time? Is this guy really gonna give me a fair fight or am I about to get gyped here?" Like come on man it's SOOOOOOO bad. The thing is LITERALLY INVINCIBLE TO SARH MISSILES!!!!! I just want to never ever ever ever ever ever ever EVER have to fight another mirage 2000 in DCS that has the jammer available to it because it's just the most annoying thing on the planet for this game. Let me know how much you hate the mirage 2000 by telling me in the comments. Thank you so very much for watching, and have a nice day! :D

    A brave Prez, a humble Eagle pilot, a proud representative of the high altitude medieval joust enthusiasts, gets the courage to finally speak out against the oppression of the highly controversial, evil, very very evil, Mirage-led regime. However, he was unfortunately later found deceased of "natural causes", with 47 shrapnel wounds and several more cases of "skill issue". He will never be forgotten. Glory to the all powerful Mirage Empire!

    It’s more of an issue for 15E specifically as well. For my time in the 15E vs M2K’s about 9.5/10 times my Sparrow won’t track. It’s only the case like 3-4/10 times in the Hornet or Tomcat. Also the head on IR lock range on the M2K is reduced a lot too so I can’t even 18nm 9M them as a counter lmao. Plus the M2K being the best BFM plane in the game (yeah Hornet is technically better but not when configured for the average PvP server loadout).
    But nah clearly we are just bad and need to get better.

    • @PrezDCS
      @PrezDCS  Před 2 měsíci +2

      So true! The F-15E does just suck really really bad at Fox-1 b/c of lack of features needed for the sparrow to function. And if you’re not experiencing the problem on the 14/18 it’s most likely b/c the 7P, as implemented by ED incorrectly, it doesn’t actually matter if you illuminate the target or not

      ​@PrezDCS I did some dedicated MP test a while ago, actually when the module came out.
      I think there is a specific problem with the F-15E, because I tried the same AIM-7M with F-14, F-15C and F-15E Vs M-2000C jamming, and F-15E was the worst.
      So let's say the ECCM modes are not simulated yet 😅

    M2k falls in an awkward area. Too good for ECW servers. To dominate for fox 1 servers. And can hold its own in a fox 3 meta server. Even if it only has 2 BVR missiles.

      I urge you to reconsider. Sure, it’s not super fast (I think it underperforms just slightly) but it’s a sure fire way to get a head on kill outside the range of a heater. I enjoy them quite a lot. Most people just have no idea what the useable range of missiles actually is/how to Fox-1 fight

    Really nice headtracking settings man, what do you use and how do you setup your curves?

    • @PrezDCS
      @PrezDCS  Před 2 měsíci

      I've got a wireless DeLan clip for my head tracker, and I use a PS3 Eye to track it. It's good, but the low resolution camera(640x480) makes it kind of jittery at times specifically when zoomed in a lot. It also makes using it for 3D motion kind of iffy . Rotation works just fine. The actual software I use is FaceTrackNoIRv200 which is the paid version. It's only like 5 bucks. As for the curves, I've got all of it set linearly. 25 degrees left or right goes the full 180. Pitch is 15 up or down for the full 90. Roll is set for 50 degrees equal 90. The only translation axis I have active is the X-axis for side to side motion so I can look over the side and around most things.

    @ComradeFury Před 2 měsíci +4

    I 100% agree with you, the Mirage is part of the reason why TBF died(that and the dogshit new PvE scenario that somehow made it past teating). Most people didn't believe me when i told them the AIM-7s didnt track on the F-15s because of the jammer, and the amount of people who said it was fair because "it only had 4 missiles" was obsurd. Even Tempest himself said it was balanced because the K/D on the F-15C and Su-27 was higher. Now whenever i see one i just book it to the nearest SAM, theres really nothing else you can do.

    • @PrezDCS
      @PrezDCS  Před 2 měsíci

      I think TBF died mostly because they went to Engima's version 2 code when they really shouldn't have b/c the zones just do not work for large the large strike based aircraft we have in late cold war. But yes, the mirage is ridiculous and anyone saying it isn't is a psychic casualty

    • @ComradeFury
      @ComradeFury Před 2 měsíci +1

      ​@@PrezDCSyeah when they switched to V2 that's when I stopped playing. Talking with Enigma it seemed like V2 could've just been a rewrite of V1 with the Frontlines, but instead of that they copied to the hex format which really didn't work with the 4th gen jets as well. Then theres PG V2 which completely killed the server.

    @Kunomi334 Před 2 měsíci +2

    The problem in my opinion with the M2K is that in 90% of the servers it’s effective in there is really no counter to it besides the weapon count on other jets, servers like buddyspike where you have the aim 54 which is not the best but at the same time it makes it so the M2K cannot just curbstomp anything it gives it a challenge because it has to kinda be a little more cautious I want to use the mirage more because I love the aircraft but I don’t want people mad at me so I’ve been hesitant on playing it 😅

    • @PrezDCS
      @PrezDCS  Před 2 měsíci +1

      As long as you always make sure the jammer is turned off then it's no problem. The issue is always the jammer and most people turn it on to automatic either b/c it's part of the procedure they learned or b/c of the autostart procedure. Most people don't know that it does this. Just don't use the jammer and you'll be a hero in my book.

      The Mirage can handle its own on a fox 3 meta server. 90% of fox 3 users don't give the missile any guidance and it goes dumb while the pilot is running away. Or... just bleed/defeat the missile. Also the 530 can do a 15-20nm kill regularly if deployed correctly. And then those fox 3 users cry when it comes to a merge and blame Razbam because of their lack of skill and say it's a UFO.
