Mouse Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I have never played Lock-On or Flaming Cliffs. I see a lot of information about what I can expect for the flight model, ground handling, and model and texture detail, but what can I expect with regards to the avionics of the F-15C in FC3? DCS: A-10C is my only good frame of reference. I can honestly live without an AFM and all that stuff for now if it means I get to fly something resembling the F-15C. What are ultimately important to me are the operational procedures of the aircraft in a combat situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExGreyFox Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Will final release of FC3 feature campaign also for other flyable aircraft besides Eagle? Ditto. I would also like to know the answer to this. If worst case, will I be able to at least copy over old campaign files from LOMAC, FC1, and FC2 and play them in FC3? Would it be as simple as a copy & paste? :huh: Intel i7-8700k Coffee Lake@stock G.Skill TridentZ RGB 32GB (2x16) 3200MHz ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080 Ti Maximus X FORMULA Z370 BIOS 1401 NZXT Kraken x62 SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2 2280 500GB (OS) SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2 2280 1TB (Games) Corsair AX1200i 1200 Watt Cooler Master HAF X HOTAS Warthog | VKB MCG Pro GunFighter Mk.

Exorcet Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 FC3 is more simple on all fronts. You won't get a clickable cockpit or anywhere near the number of options that you have in the A-10. With the F-15C it's basically nav mode/BVR mode/WVRmode(s), radar on/off, radar TWS/RWS, radar azimuth full/half, radar PRF select. For reference, fly the free Su-25T in DCS World. That's the level of avionics that FC3 offers (though fighters add radar and a couple of other things).

Neor Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 The F-15C looks very nice! Is the F-15C the next DCS module? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exorcet Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 So the rockets will be easy to turn on and lock a target ready to fire? A10C was too much of a pain to learn. Also, I heard something about PRE-ORDERING gets the Nevada map for free? Pre Ordering A-10C was how you got a Beta of the Nevada map. This is no longer available as A-10 is out of pre order. Firing weapons in FC is easier to learn than A-10C yes. For example in the FC A-10A, when using AGM-65, there is no seeker allignment time and Mavericks are simply selected by switching weapons. You still need to slew Mavericks to a target though. Fighter missiles are similar to Maverick use. You slew the radar to a target, lock it, and then fire when in range. You won't hit anything unless you know how to properly assess a situation though.

Just to double-check: so the new cockpit for the F-15C is not clickable? I knew the others were not but was hoping the new cockpit would be.

It was added to the aircraft payload when DCS A-10C was released. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Mouse Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I read that this expands the map into east Georgia. How does this work? Is it available yet? Are there screenshots? Will this be available for DCS World in general or is it restricted to owners of FC3? I do not see east Georgia missions ever gaining popularity if the map is not generally available.

Will this be available for DCS World in general or is it restricted to owners of FC3? I do not see east Georgia missions ever gaining popularity if the map is not generally available. This is what it means by that. It is the same terrain that was included with the release of A-10C. While this is nothing new for DCS, it is new compared to FC2. It is part of the base DCS World package so all modules can use it. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/series/warthog/?PAGEN_2=6#14599 Edited November 10, 2012 by VincentLaw [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanK Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Limited 6DOF came in FC2 in the last patch. This allowed just a little left right head movement. This would appear to have been removed in FC3. Is this intentional ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishtmail Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 What about separate wheel brakes for left and right wheel, respectively, applied to axes on controllers (for instance toe brakes on Saitek Pro Flight Combat pedals)? Probably not high on the priority list, but I've grown accustomed to toe brakes in A10C and I miss the feature when flying (or rather, taxiing) F15.
