Hey guys,

 

I can't yet download 2.5 until I go home. So found this on youtube.

 

 

First time I am seeing it.

 

 

cheers

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

 

(EDIT: I wish someone would ask about the ATC update, so Wags could shed some light on this as well)

Thanks for sharing Witchking! (and rrohde for guiding me here ;) )

 

ATC is a forbidden question :p (that I'd love to know more about too).

At least it looks like we'll finally have some weather effects hitting our canopies (someday).

Not forbidden, just no new info other than work will be done on it.

I have no doubt SiTh, thanks for the update ;)

I was just joking and I'm sure they have plenty to do before they can start spreading any news about a new ATC.

Even X-Plane devs have been struggling for ages to create a better system and they're still on it.

 

I hope they did celebrate that OB release with plenty of fuel. That new 2.5 trailer looks stunning!

I would like to see better access to the ai so it could be programmed to help pilots by either training them correctly or being a good crew member in multi crew aircraft why have them there if they are dumb .

They are able to operate the weapons systems attached to their positions with multiple player-selected ROEs, and the pilot AI can hover or maintain level flight.

Would more features be nice? Sure. There's a wishlist forum here:

As it stands, they still have a functional role in combat flight.

�tonal role in combat, bur no†hing †o learn how †o fly correctly of †o training †he advance manuvues (sp). if Thy want a realist platform then training should have as much of a role as the actual combat. ask †he rl pilots how much time they spent training before the first combat mission and †he more systems the longer †he training

I'm not disagreeing with you. In spite of what you seem to think, we're not all a bunch of children with no idea how the real deal works. Several members of my virtual squadron are RL pilots and aircrew, military and civilian. Many documents on training programs are publicly available and many of us enjoy learning how to do things properly to the extent that the sim allows.

 

My only point is that the AI crew serves a function. You implied they might as well not be there.

 

Multiplayer groups exist that offer exactly the kind of training you're referring to, that will no doubt expand when multicrew is implemented for the UH-1H/Mi-8MTV2 (which has been discussed for some time.)

 

Would it be nice to be able to do this in single player? Sure, but consider the challenges of programming an AI to accurately and correctly fly a realistic flight model of a helicopter.

 

Let's not derail this topic. I'd recommend opening a wishlist thread if you'd like to discuss it further with the community.

 

@Flankerman, the other guy is a YouTube personality with a gaming channel...I don't think he has any special qualifications but I will also admit that I don't spend a lot of time watching YouTube videos so I could be wrong.

Except for combat they don’t do anything that I’ve seen. Yes i have added a post there in the wishlist. I don’t think it would be that hard to program the ai if its do correctly.

Um, who's the other guy (not Mr. Wagner) who's talking in the video? I've watched some of his videos on the MiG-29 campaign, and I can't find any past mission 6, but I don't know who he is.

 

Also, he said something about the F/A-18C being the only full fidelity fourth gen aircraft. What about the M2KC?

Outch. I would not use the term "highly inaccurate"... seems a bit unfair :) Some features still missing and some tweaks to be done? Yes.

 

The fidelity will always be different between projects. No module is 100% accurate to the real thing... Anyways, thx for the interview. Looking forward to some Hornet A-A videos soon @wags
