Grimes Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 and no more BIG CITY LIGHTS in Vegas :music_whistling: Thats the other challenge of making Las Vegas, the city emits a massive glow at night time which you can see from miles out. It would be a spectacular sight to behold to accidentally bomb some power lines and watch the city's power go out Oceans 11 style. Not to mention of ED gets some of the neat lights working the city is famous for. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Cali Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 The Nevada map size is very much subject to change, so we'll be holding off on such details. But yes, Lake Meade and Hoover Dam are included.

Underleft Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) I just would really like 29 Palms to be in there. I was stationed there for 5 years and desperately want to bomb certain locales. :megalol: Like Sugar Cookie? Or Range 400. Those are two place I wouldn't mind putting a few GBU-10's on.

Such things make these mountains so beautiful. Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make...

Arclight Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 That's not even close to a fair comparison, river-carved gorge vs wind-eroded hilltops. :smilewink: But yeah, wouldn't expect such detail in a flightsim. It's a little impossible considering how much terrain they are covering. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] DCS A-10C: putting the 'art' into 'warthog'. (yes, corny. Sorry.)

Mack Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Excellent. From a personal standpoint, it seems that either Afghanistan or Iraq would be great areas for consideration. Western Iraq--Anbar, say--would be a little boring I think but northern Iraq or Diyala could be very interesting. Beautiful rolling hills out toward Iran. Afghanistan could offer some incredible terrain challenges what with the altitude and steep canyons. Best, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate--IRL-- Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 No, as I understand it, it would have to be rebuilt from scratch to use EDGE. It isn't viable.
