CallsignPunch

Ah, that makes sense, I didn’t think about the space that some might not want to use. The user file library is awesome though!

+1 should be an included feature not one requiring a script or workaround....some of us aren’t that tech savvy.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, that’s why. I’m not sure that new ATC has anything to do with Callsign availability in ME. And it seems ED is finally listening, the A-10 added Tusk, Hog, Boar call signs. Now they need to do it for the rest of the aircraft

This....I don’t think it’s about livery availability I think it’s about more options in vanilla, which should fix the MP part. ED doesn’t even need to do the work, find the high quality user ones, contact the maker for permission, and do their magic to include them in the next update.

Just wondering out loud in case an insider has some insight.... Why is Virpil doing a UH-60 collective? Do they know something we don't about an upcoming module? Both the Kiowa and Apache are coming soon, seems like the obvious choice would be to bring one of those collectives to market, not one that the most popular combat sim doesn't have a module for. So DCS, make a MH-60 module. Virpil, make OH-58 and AH-64 collective options. Everyone's happy!

P-3 KC-10 EA-6B.....how are you going to have SC and not even offer a full air wing of aircraft options.

+1 This should be very easy for ED to make an IFLOLS trailer.....they have the mobile Tacan thing, this should be doable.

30 seconds for any aircraft to be ready for taxi is wildly unrealistic. At a minimum make it 5 minutes but preferably realistic startup times for the aircraft.

Uh oh....that sounds like a delay announcement coming :(

+1 walking to and from the jet

Pretty sure carriers don’t use floodlight at night during combat ops.....something about light discipline.....I dunno Not having lighted wands for the deck crew would be leaving out a pretty important piece as I’m sure a lot of guys do night ops. Personally I hate how the rift s handles night so I do mostly daytime but still it’s an important feature....

AV-8B VTOL for sure

Might also have to do with where the aircraft is armored....A-10C pilot has a lot of protection.....other aircraft, not so much. Also when I can’t eject I usually go to F2 view to see Shaw all or bullet holes in the canopy.....I figure that’s what did my pilot in.

I think I missed something somewhere.....there is a way to operate the current Stennis elevators? How?

This!:pilotfly:

I thought this was planned at some point....to be able to walk the ship in VR and be able to walk from the ready room to the jet.....for me that would put the module in a whole other price category!

So if I read it right in the Weekend News the only animated crew will be at the cats so no yellow shirts to direct you from your parking spot to the cat or back to parking after coming aboard......is this correct or is it planned for later? It would be nice for a function of the Air Boss station or Mission Editor to be able to assign cats in use then have yellow shirts to direct the taxiing aircraft. Also right now I can’t have static aircraft parked up and down cat one and two if I have AI aircraft in the mission, for some reason they won’t just go to the waist cats. Being able to assign cats in use just like ATC assigns runways in use in the real world would fix this.

The original rant is somewhat ridiculous.....I think it’s quit nice of ED to give DCS World and the SU-25 free. Nobody wants a subscription pay model so the way ED makes money is through modules, maps, and campaigns. I’m happy to pay to support ED and purchase what I like. I actually think more things should be paid “packs”. Free DCS World with a few AI planes, ships, and ground vehicles and the rest in paid pack....like Iranian military pack, naval ai pack, exc. I think doing this way would actually work better for both ED and the user....ED gets cash flow and user gets high quality AI, fwatures like weather updates and all that.....if they are making more money on it more motivation is there or they can hire more. For those that don’t want to pay....fine fly in a basic map with limited features, for those of us happy to pay for the excellent products, awesome we can pick and choose what we want or buy it all to add to our experience. Well done on the Carrier ED, hurry up with the EA launch.....I have some money for ya!
