Reddit - Dive into anything

We have a weekly thread stickied to the subreddit all the time, refreshed every week. Questions about DCS should generally go there, with very few exceptions.

New Redditors please note, AutoModerator is set to remove link posts from accounts younger than 7 days. Additionally we will remove posts by users with less than -10 comment karma. This is due to an influx of troll accounts. Also, the spam filter here is a bit heavy handed, so please use the mod message to get us to help you out if your post doesn't show up in "new"

Welcome to /r/hoggit, a noob-friendly community for fans of high-fidelity combat flight simulation. Discussion primarily focuses on DCS: World and BMS. While we started out as multiplayer flight training group, as time has gone on and /r/hoggit has grown into an aggregator hub for all things DCS/BMS. This is not a full on reprimand-you-for-having-your-navigation-lights-on-when-you-shouldn't-have type outfit here...you'll find we foster a laid back atmosphere to learn how to work the various modules available in DCS. We only have a few rules here at /r/hoggit: 1) Don't be a dick 2) Don't post low effort, off-topic content, or shitposts and 3) Questions about DCS should generally go in the weekly stickied Questions post, with very few exceptions.
