Damn', 9 months to the A-10C if this sim becomes a success!


Dang... I'll probably be about 1/10th through the systems of the shark by the time the A-10 comes out. It took me years before I could do everything in F4's 'pit from memory.

I am very out of the loop because I have not touched a flightsim in years, much less keeping current with news.

Can someone give me some quick answers on this English version of Black Shark :-

Starforce ?
How big is the dl ?
Can we purchase a hardcopy ? Does that have Starforce ?

Thanks

I told myself I wouldn't buy it because of starforce but I couldn't help myself and I'm downloading it as I type. I'm so weak... frown

Aren't there any better clips of the training missions out somewhere, that one is pretty minimalist...

the Black Shark Producer's Notes videos are available for download on the DCS website. these are videos 1-9 and are done by Matt Wagner who also does the in game training missions. the Producer's Notes videos are not exactly the same as the training missions but they are similar and are very well done.

if you have not seen them already they are definitely worth watching.

I noticed when I fired it up to look at some of the demo tracks that the MFD on my X52 said "Black Shark Rulllez" on it when the sim is running.

Actually it says "Ruullllez! Black Shark" but I knew what they meant biggrin
