Reflected Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Dear Tomcat jockeys, I was just wondering how many of you are planning to buy the DCS Supercarrier even though we'll get the Ranger and Forrestal for free. I, for one, will buy it for sure on day 1. :pilotfly: Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudel_chw Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I will too, not sure about day 1, unless there is a pre-release discount :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcroGimp Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Definite purchase, Forrestal will be great but the SuperCarrier and revised ATC are going to take immersion to a whole new level. As with all things, why not both?

Airhunter Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Sure, it's a different class. The Forrestal class will be perfect for the cat and the upcoming F-8J and maybe A-7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beppe_goodoldrebel Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Hard question since we have no clue about how many new features will be on the Forrestal. Pretty much new ATC will be good for me to not buy the SuperCarrier module Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg71 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm interested in how the features implied will impact performance. I love the idea of deck crew etc but fear the game becoming a slide show on all but the most high end hardware. If a 2080ti becomes a requirement, then it's upgrade time - but Thats a big ask just to have some dude waving his arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airhunter Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I wouldn't be too worried about performance. Pretty sure the dev's are striving for the best performance possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satarosa Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Take into consideration this pls Before creating a new aircraft carrier please take into consideration this pls ! The economy and bug of aircraft carriers and boats in DCS : https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=231381 " The problems in DCS world we have 2 US aircrafts carrier, with one with awful textures! Both are absolutely bug-filled; spawn bug collision parking location, disincronization bug with space time, bug of the economy, buggy planes that slide by themselves .. I would have definitely preferred to have only one aircraft carrier for the US and Russia, but 100% operational with HD textures and crew annimation, and above all NO bug No need for ten aircraft carriers but one that works!!" > The bug of the economy is the most terrible! > Many bug are still present on the current 3 aircraft carriers and still not fix, some bugs can cause the server crash !!!

Surrexen Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I will be picking up the Super-carrier module whenever it comes out, I don't see any reason not to. I am also very much looking forward to the Forrestal coming out. The more variety and detail we can get for these naval vessels the better!

Jester2138 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANK YOU Yeah, DCS definitely needs to debugger all the various carriers. Online the tarwa is useless due to the spawn bug(s), half the time the other carriers have the same issue.

sc_neo Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 EDs carrier comes closest to fund game/environment tech directly with the enhanced ATC and deck crew animations and various things like working elevators and such. This could be the testbed to broaden those things for more lively environments like populated busy airfields, and in the case of ATC, this has been stated to be the first push towards a new and proper comms system. S So yeah, i will get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl0w Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I'm more than sure that people will use the Supercarrier as well, but I would like to be dependent on the Forrestal, mainly because I feel that you should utilize something you paid for. It's going to be a great feature like the Supercarrier, that I am certain of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lieuie Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 It would be nice to see some of the features of the ED carriers be implemented to the Forestall class carriers at least for those who are going to buy the ED carriers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zad Fnark Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Looking forward to it. It'll be a realistic base for any Vietnam-type scenarios (F-4s anyone?). Questions are a burdon, and answers a prison for one's self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6Gun Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Depends on how complete the carrier is when it comes out. It's one thing to buy the carrier, another to have working catapults. Working slots to spawn into. Working arresting wires. They have 2 jets that don't have TWS. One of those jets have been out for over a year. Not a day one purchase for me.

Greekbull Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Absolutely no doubt will be picking up the SuperCarrier Module Day 1. Our entire CSG-1 Naval Community will be doing so as well. I also very much look forward to the Forrestal Class as well! Hope we see it in 2019!

flameoutme Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I think a better question would have been, will you buy the SC in early access, assuming it's features are as complete as those of the F-16 at time of release.. because in all likelyhood, "release" will mean "early". As soon as I am convinced SC is at least at the Beta stage, with all major features in place but yet to be totally smoothed out, I will not be buying it. It is a matter of principle, now.

I have all the mods (I'm missing four campaigns, I think). There are aircraft in my hanger I've never sat in, so you think I'm going to say no to a boat? An old Navy guy like me?
