idenwen Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Bah ... had great hopes in this addition but there is nothing happening since i-don't-know-when that I have start to accommodate with the feeling of "there will be no F-15E ever" - to bad, was my favorite. Any other sim that has a nice F-15E to fly except Janes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDsc0rch Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 no - they want very much to get their F-15E into DCS - there's just a list they're working down - they'll get around to it ; ) i7-4790K | Asus Sabertooth Z97 MkI | 16Gb DDR3 | EVGA GTX 980 | TM Warthog | MFG Crosswind | Panasonic TC-58AX800U [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDsc0rch Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 i mean.. think about it - even if you had a magic wand and all the projects being worked on right now were instantly finished - even aircraft you WANT but aren't even on the list.. you got EVERYthing you want - would there even be enough time to get to everything?? these sims are so complicated.. there's plenty to keep us busy between now and then anyway! i don't even have a flight sim capable computer system yet - i'm buying all the components now - its gonna be 30-45days before i'm a full-up-round - and then there's the whole learning curve to deal with - its not just DCS, there's BMS too (are we allowed to say that on this forum??haha!) - by the time i get my rig going the F-86 and the P-51 will be out - already purchased CA and A-10C ----- seriously, if F-15E (or F-18C or E) was released tomorrow, i honestly wouldn't even be able to get to it! i'm not even going to start on the mission editor and campaign building and incorporating CA/ground forces and dealing with that whole learning curve.......... look - they're getting close, once these 3rd party developers get a handle on the basics, they'll be able to pop these modules out much quicker - there are several platforms in the pipeline, once the damn bursts, be careful what you wish for.. you'll have more on your hands than you're able to deal with! its just a question of getting a codebase from which to deviate from - and customize for each following platform - but the first one is the big investment idunno, just trying to keep it all in perspective...... i7-4790K | Asus Sabertooth Z97 MkI | 16Gb DDR3 | EVGA GTX 980 | TM Warthog | MFG Crosswind | Panasonic TC-58AX800U [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLR Rico Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 would there even be enough time to get to everything?? these sims are so complicated.. there's plenty to keep us busy between now and then anyway! Ever since the Huey was released, it was my main single player go-to aircraft. Then I realized I was getting rusty at the shark, so I spent a few days re-learning that, then I fired up the P-51.... goodness, was it always this twitchy? A day or two later I got used to it again. Oh wait, I haven't given the MI-8 any love lately. Crap, I've forgotten how to use that whacky weapons panel, and WTH kind of gun pod is that?! Oh, you know what, it's been a while since I've done SEAD with the toad.... ;) As excited as I am to see improvements and more aircraft, it's hard to get bored with DCS. :D 1 i5-4670K@4.5GHz / 16 GB RAM / SSD / GTX1080 Rift CV1 / G-seat / modded FFB HOTAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsumikae Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 ED has proven themselves capable of developing simulators. RAZBAM hasnt. I agree with scrim. Their online shop has quite a few modules available for FSX. Which kind of invalidate that statement. They never were supposed to develop a sim platform, but modules. And that, they do. I'd rather support them. I can't wait to play their modules, especially the Mirage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ktulu2 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Well...Soon there will be as much as DCS products : DCS : KA-50, A-10C, P-51 and FC3 (not full modules so i'll count it as one) BST : MI-8, F-86, Huey (I won't count cobra as its not a done) RRG : 1plane (don't remember wich one) VEAO : HAWK Leatherneck : mig-21 3rd parties are coming pretty hard and the amount of modules will increase by 66% after the summer :) (I just wish they were 80's, but thats me) I do DCS videos on youtube : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAs8VxtXRJHZLnKS4mKunnQ?view_as=public Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunaticfringe Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 They could write their own ground radar. (and by no means was that to sounds as easy as that reads :P) I disagree with this premise for a very specific reason: it forks what ED constitutes as baseline. They need to spend the time doing the real work on the radar model to define how it will be represented across the spectrum of products, so that, while aircraft will not be fully attributed to their real world performance, they will "scale" appropriately across compared systems. DCS' radar model should be internally consistent, which means that ED must lead the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBillKelsoe Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I think in the bottom of the Atlantic, next to RMS Titanic :( AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
