Cosmonaut Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 How do you know it will never show it's head in the future? ;) It might, but considering the present list of future aircraft to be developed then even if they get a military contract, for the aircraft I've mentioned, it will still most likely take more than 10 years to develop.. :huh: Cozmo.

*Rage* Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Now imagine realizing that the 120 has almost the same range as that ER when launched high and fast as well ... things start to get scary ;) IIRC max range for an ER shot is 66km (the max range at which the flanker's radar will lock on to anything). The AMRAAM can be launched from 80km if you really want, though I'm not terribly confident it would hit anyone who was half-competent at BVR ... the ER would more than likely end up with more energy. Yep...ok...so it makes for a great realistic BVR fight where real tactics come into play?.....i sure hope so. I wont get drawn into another of those missile discussions ~2-3 years in advance (by my optimistic estimation) beofre the games release;) I sure look forward to advanced missile/seeeker/countermeasure modelling though. exciting times.

HungaroJET Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Great News ! 1- A-10A Suite 2 (latest version of A-10A in active use) 2- A-10C Suite 3 (we now have permission from the USAF to develop an entertainment version of the simulation we developed for them. We are very happy and excited about this). 3- AH-64A Blk. 49A 4- Su-27 5- F-15C 6- Mi-24V 7- F-16C 8- MiG-29A I believe the biggest hit will be the F-16 in the DCS series with complex A2G radar modes, but my head is cooler tonight. :cry: First, i would like to see the DCS KA-50 DVD on the "market". My (one & only) hope is: flyin' with that coaxial chopper...before Xmas.:( (as soon as possible) I think people can lament about lack of their favorite aircraft so long as they do it once ... Eg: Where's DCS: TomCat!!! :D Other than that it looks like things have been quite positive! Yep...BTW:Tomcat Why there is not any carrier ops machine on DCS development list ? The (Old Dead Cat):( TOMCAT F-14 or the MultiBUG F-18 ? Atop the midnight tarmac, a metal beast awaits. To be flown below the radar, to bring the enemy his fate. HAVE A BANDIT DAY !

VMFA117_Poko Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I sure look forward to advanced missile/seeeker/countermeasure modelling though. I'd like to see electronic warfare mirror in the sim. Modern air operations can't go without it. If USAF allowed to show us some of their fancy avionics have something changed with ECM realism in DCS? Unfortunatelly I believe there will be same shortcuts as for IFF, won't it? Also russian side should give a green light. So very slim chances.

ED Team Wags Posted May 20, 2008 Author ED Team Share Posted May 20, 2008 Navy aircraft may well be part of the DCS environment at a later point; the posted list just indicates what is currently in work NOW. Also, to pursue any aircraft (like F-14 or F/A-18) we need the proper documents that we currently do not have. Matt, I can't tell you how happy that part made me :thumbup::D:D . Finally resources are being aimed at multiplayer with thoughts of not just how we are actually going to set up missions but what type of missions will best suit the aircraft type we're going to fly, ie coops for BS and adversarial once we get some fighters to play with. Every successful sim IMO is a result of an online environment that's very addictive e.g M$FS (Vatsim network), IL2 and hopefully we'll be able to add DCS-BS to that group too :) . I have to say though that I'm bitterly, bitterly disappointed that the navy wont be showing it's head in any DCS release. I know the reasons why but when you see it in black and white it just adds a finality to the dream of an F18/Su33/Mig29K modeled to BS standards that just basically sucks :( . Although at least we will be getting a Su27 and Eagle to go head to head with so if we are allowed a vote then I would say to the DCS team that if it comes down to another chopper or bomber then forget them both and give us some fighters :) .. pleasssszzzee. :v: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh and why infect this thread with ugly pics of Falcon!!

ED Team Wags Posted May 20, 2008 Author ED Team Share Posted May 20, 2008 Thanks for the most interesting dev update to date! :thumbup: I wish I was 5 right now. I wouldn't have to go to scool and I could start with fighter module for DCS being about 10 ;) Seriously I think all of the past products except Flaming Cliffs and Falcon 4.0 Dynamic Campaign experience was a waste of time. You say DCS is your first independent product. Wasn't Flaming Cliffs your first? I think you should be proud of it! FC was an add-on for a Ubisoft published product.

warthogmadman987 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 OMG! A-10C! I know that a lot of people have said this, but I love you guys! I feel safe to know that there is a chance! Also, BTW, not that it matters, but DCS looks like it is shaping up to just be a redo of Lockon. To me it all just seems kinda the same, but better!

GGTharos Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 It's no lockon redo. About the only similarities might be the list of aircraft, and that's where it ends ... period.

To me it all just seems kinda the same, but better! And that's considering lockon's one of the best sims of all time! It will be like lockon x10! And, for you F-16 lovers... I would much rather see the Su-27 and the F-15. It's quite clear we will be getting our a2g planes (A-10A and A-10C, which will have a/g radar) and our helos (Ka-50 and Apaches). I think It would be fair to put in some strictly A2A fighters as we cannot really do A2A with the A-10s. We already have a high fidelity F-16 in Falcon 4 (OH NO! I SAID THE WORD!) so I think ED should do the Flanker and Eagle right and give them the detail they deserve! Of course, If we do get the F-16, I will still be happy to fly a fighter again. My 2 cents Aero out DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBQ Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Also, BTW, not that it matters, but DCS looks like it is shaping up to just be a redo of Lockon. To me it all just seems kinda the same, but better! It's a "redo" only insofar as they are both combat simulations set in the same geographical region. The aircraft models are completely different--level of fidelity, etc. Essentially, DCS will be a "study" sim of multiple aircraft. Lockon is a survey sim of multiple aircraft. Big difference.

joey45 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 shame no Euro A/C are in the list. US and RUS planes are getting a bit repetitive.

A: The initial release of DCS will use a heavily modified version of our TFCSE simulation engine that will run Windows XP SP2 and Vista equally well using either DirectX 9 or DirectX 10. However, DCS versions based on the TFCSE engine will not take advantage of DirectX 10 unique features or multi-core processors.

My 2 cents Aero out Hi Fi Viper? Yes, but ugly as homemade sin. Not to mention a big fat dead-end. Technically Falcon is an animal that has been dead for years but has been propped up by various parties again, and again, and again. Kinda like that movie "Weekend at Bernie's". ;) Its a good sim, but saying that it takes the place of a DCS F-16C module is just silly.\ OTOH, yeah, the Viper has been done to death. However, as someone pointed out, I'd put money on the F-16C being the most popular module. I'd rather have a Flanker or Eagle first, but my second choice would be the Viper.
