With HB working on the Forrestal family, I'm now kind of sad nobody is doing Big John. Kennedy had -14s from 1974 with the Swordsmen and Tophatters for a really long time, hell the Swordsmen flew from her when they slapped those Libyan Mig-23s down. She was still around to be VF-103's last Tomcat cruise in 2004, on her final cruise.

 

My old man also got his senior cruise on her in mid '72, even got a backseat ride with the Tophatters in an F-4B.

Question for online play. The servers that will have that supercarrier would mean that people who did not purchase the module will not be able to join it right? Wont this just divide the playerbase?

 

Apologies for my ignorance. I did not know that the supercarrier was a paid module.

The carrier has a module, no a addon.

Although we released a greatly improved and free Nimitz-class aircraft carrier at the time of the Hornet release, we are also working on a separate Nimitz-class aircraft carrier module. This product will have an incredible level of detail and include such features as a detailed and operable LSO and Air Boss stations, detailed modeling of the hangar, animated deck crew, briefing room, and control of the carrier.

 

Once this project is complete, the team will finish up the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and then return to and release the updated Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier.

At this time, we have no release date or pricing, but they will be available at our very soonest.

I couldn't care less about what wizz-bang features any carrier comes with. I just want something that actually works and can be used by more than 2-3 players at once. Whichever carrier is the least bug-ridden will be the one I use in my missions. Based on past experience... that will be Heatblur's.

 

A little early to make such assumptions IMHO.

 

Supercarrier day one buy.

 

And appreciate what Heatblur is doing with the Forrestal.

 

I will use both and whichever suits the mission at the time.

ED said that there will be one on the 18th so if everything goes well, we will have a nice list of chunky updates coming our way.

Yeah about that....

 

 

Good news is the Viggen guys got some of the long standing wants, the RAT, pilot model in cockpit, and a new campaign.

 

Tomcat just got a few bug fixes and RWR additions.
