blksolo Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 It looks like 50 percent of those are some type of view,solved with a rift,another 40 percent solved with a mapped HOTAS.The last 10 percent are end mission etc. I will concede that this would only work in a fully clickable cockpit.

HornetUK Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Don't get me wrong I think the rift us a great bit of kit, but I want to be able to control all function of the aircraft be it a a-10c, a Flaming Cliffs aircraft or anything other aircraft for that matter in the most effective way. Personal I think this will slow me down in responding to situations. trying to fly the aircraft, looking for the correct panel and then trying to move the mouse around to click on it like in the a-10 will mean I get shoot down.

metalnwood Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 There is a heck of a lot of commands in that list that have nothing to do with flying the aircraft. I refuse to believe that the cut down nature of FC aircraft actually require more inputs than a much better modelled aircraft like the a10 or an f16 whose controls are similar to the hog. When you remove all the rubbish from the list the reality is that you can control the aircraft from the hotas and people have been doing it without the keyboard for years. You only have to reference complete profiles for the saitek sticks dating back a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLR Rico Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'm using a reasonably capable HOTAS (x52) and using a modifier button, I don't remember the last time I had to use the keyboard for anything besides the F keys, escape, pause, and other non-flying tasks. Even then, they can be all dealt with by feel... I don't understand the keyboard argument. :joystick: 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...
BTTW-DratsaB Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) I'm using a reasonably capable HOTAS (x52) and using a modifier button, I don't remember the last time I had to use the keyboard for anything besides the F keys, escape, pause, and other non-flying tasks. Even then, they can be all dealt with by feel... I don't understand the keyboard argument. :joystick: I agree, I find this argument very odd. The non click able cockpits really have very few controls. And I don't think I would have any problem using the mouse while not being able to see it for the clickable pits. I never look at it anyway, there is no need to. The only problem would probably for users without a HOTAS controller. Actually, looking back at the first page of this thread, even Wags seems to think not being able to see the keyboard would be a problem! Has he played his own sim with HOTAS or click-able cockpit :) ? Yesterday I was flying the Su25a, I used the keyboard once to press escape and exit the mission. I was also flying the A10C...same thing, one key..ESC to exit :D It will be a damn shame if DCS doesn't support this. The enjoyment and immersion boost this will tech will bring far out weigh any minor issues with the keyboard.

Pyroflash Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I agree, plus, those who still feel the need to look at and use their keyboard for everything still have the option to not use the rift. It should only be an option for those who have purchased it, it's not like anyone is forcing you to use a rift. If you aim for the sky, you will never hit the ground.

mhe Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Is the keyboard thing STILL not done yet? Jeez... Does anybody force users to use anything beyond a joystick in DCS? People just want to have the option to use it because it really adds to the game. And of course it also has some downsides, but please name me one input or output device that has only positive sides... I'd even pay for Rift support in DCS and something tells me I'm not alone with that. ED are already delivering a ridiculously detailed product for the price, I don't expect any freebies from them, in fact I'd love it if they would up their prices a bit so they can work with a bit more resources so getting things done gets easier for them. If adding a feature is a big project in itself, nobody expects them to do it for free. If somebody doesn't need it, so be it. But the people who want it should have the option to get it. And if it was a paid addon, no resources would have to be directed away from ongoing efforts like EDGE or the F-18, you just get additional guys to do it. Everybody wins. Except the folks who still think a keyboard is unusable with a Rift and therefore the Rift is not to be supported. They don't win, they just don't lose anything, hence shouldn't have a say in the matter.

HornetUK Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 rgr Thant sir could not agree more. only way this will ultimately be decided is in the air when it comes on the market. was only curious how one would have used the a-10 with all the panels effectively. and the same to the F-18 give me, give me, give me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burner_Tbird2 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 You can see the keyboard, or you can use in game clickable pits, or you can use a keyboard screen overlay. And that's just the solutions available right now- sensors gloves are coming, hand recognition hardware already exists. Let's all be 'why not' thinkers here. Mature VR is going to be the best thing for the flight sim industry since the personal computer. Looking forward to any and all updates from ED on Rift implementation.
