Is it a bird? Is it a super bird?

We are all falling for it... :D

 

If it is a joke, which it is even if it is real, then it is in poor taste.

It's no joke. ED would not let their logo be plastered all over videos and marketing material for a "joke module".

Yeah, there is still a part of me that thinks its an elaborate ruse.

In the video the cockpit looks kinda low res, the FM seeming strange, no announcement on the forums, their emblem, ect.

P.S. Do expect surprises…

 

I'm still waiting :D

 

P.S.

Good luck with the CEII though. It takes guts to open up a new segment in DCS (you and ED with Yak-52).

Though you miiight have misjudged your existing customer base with this hype-campaign ;) (Depending ofc on the, presumed, other surprises)

I wonder if the helicopter noise at the beginning of the video means anything?

If only they didnt build so much hype, this wouldnt have hit so hard as its doing now. A very daring move, and I think the only way to recover from this is if its a joke, which I highly doubt.

 

I hope you dont get burned to hard for this, would be a shame if we lost another 3rd Party.

Can we save ourselves some time and just copy/paste about 20 pages worth of Yak52 for and against arguing here.

The difference is that this is the first aircraft from this team (the Mig-21 does not count) and DCS is still, first and foremost, a combat simulator.

It seems like a lot of fun! :D

 

I think M3 may have underestimated the capacity of people here to get over-excited ;) Too bad the reaction of some is so... fierce. Personally I found that hilarious, sometimes you have to get things with a pinch of salt, and if it were a more complex aircraft, it would have been announced, it would also be in the roadmap for a while, and not shown so late in the development.

 

If this bird is a first step towards a better Corsair, I think it's a good way to proceed. Regarding the price, I'm not sure however... it's probably a bit expensive for an experimental project? But it all depends on the quality (and the reception by the DCS users).

If they pay me to take it, I might.

Looks like from their comments on the facebook announcement that it is real!

(Also, they say it's a step towards the corsair in development)

The development of the corsair does not require the creation of this as a complete module as a step.
