This is what I needed! It's something that keeps me entertained while I read the dash-1. People want to play bms for good and entertaining fights, not reading manuals. Having to wait 2 weeks to get to that while you read all the manual/s and do all the tutorials isn't very fun and a wall in the way of many begginer upcoming bms pilots
You would be surprised how many people feel differently and actually like reading long manuals. I think it’s a good thing that this selects who will stick with BMS. Those who want different style can choose let’s say DCS. Many simmers read the manuals while going through tutorials or jump in a campaign and also watch videos like this. That actually reduces the learning curve but it’s still long. Study level sim.. The best is to join others, a squad or mp and they can teach on the fly
I wish there was some hand-holding too lol. Nothing wrong with wanting to have more fun. Try reading the manuals as if you are actually going to pilot a real aircraft. When I think like that, I feel more invested.
@@Reptile1971 I am one of those who enjoys reading these but I also have tutorial or various multiplayer vids going on my second monitor at simultaneously. Good times.

Thank you for this video. My only suggestion is it doesn't fully show at times where we should be assigning those commands/keys on our HOTAS to keep it as close to or mimic the real life counterpart as possible. For example, you showed where the 3-positional "dogfight" switch would be on the throttle but there were other commands say "Uncage" should be mapped. I get it there may not be a HOTAS real-life button for where that would be, but I'm sure you have the most practical location on your HOTAS on where every command should be for smooth flying and that is a HUGE help.
Using the BMS launcher is ideal, I agree. But saying the "in-game GUI doesn't work" is not a true statement, it in fact does work and has worked since 1988 when I first played the game on a DOS platform, IBM 486.

Sharing this everywhere! That is what I would say is the BARE minimum.

I would add that you need padlock mapped to a button, if you don't have head tracking or VR.
I would fence in before fight (position lights off) and switch dogfight mode when getting this close to hostile aircrafts.
Good video
It's a video game and the lights don't matter against AI, they always know where you are.

i think ur talking about either falcon 4.0 or falcon bms but falcon bms 4.37 you cant change controls ingame
Dude, Falcon 4.0 was launched in 1998, for Windows 85/98 and you needed a Pentium I (at least) to run it. Maybe you're talking about Falcon 3.0.
