I really want this game but i want to know if it is joy stick compateble or if i have to get any extra programes

the instruction in this game is so incredibly bad that this game is very difficult to pick up the basics on. I am not already a pilot and wish that I didnt waste money on this

I bought this game years ago and was thinking about trying it for the first time. Some posts in the discussions seem to suggest that since I own this pre DCS world game I can now use the a10 in DCS world. Is this correct? I also have pre DCS black shark so it would be awesome if these two products can be transfered to DCS world. Any info would be appreciated....

Im finding that the DCS products seem poorly implemented, buggy, lack any real manuals and overall poor quaity. Ive bought A10C, F15c, Combined arms. A10c is complicated and the documentation and training implementation is lacking, F15c unplayable, the training is nada nothing, ZERO. The flight model and joystick routine/calibration and configuration is impossible to get right. The plane either rolls right or left or pitches up. If this is due to wind affects there's nothing to tell you thats what it is. C...

I'm trying to learn how to start up the A-10c, but cannot follow the training missions due to the fact the "zoom in slow" key does not work.. it is "numpad * " .. i can use the quick zoom key, but that only zooms in halfway.. i need to zoom in all the way, using the numpad* key, but it has no effect when i press it. Please help a noob....
