2.2 has it, it is just more subdued and seems to depend on lighting/sun angle/etc - i see it, fleetingly ----- i have a feeling 2.2 is the direction they are going with graphics - 2.2 is closer to 2.5 than what you see in 1.5 - in 2.5 it will be more like what we are currently seeing in 2.2

good point ---- really wish this was an "option" we could turn on or off also... that "zoom out" effect as the sim starts - would love to kill it once and for all...

cold war...

would be great to get a map that allowed us to use the tomcat in its intended mission - and yeah, if we had at the very least AI opfor that could simulate a mass raid, that would definitely be cool - the map would need to be big enough to accommodate the distances required to play out force-on-force scenarios --- fortunately, most of the area would be ocean so that should limit the map size..

GOOD! and good riddance!

ED responded to me for future reference.... OPTIONS / MISC un-check the "autologin" box

in the new system, we get logged in automatically at startup what if we want to log out of our account?

ooh!

improved! i like it : ) it used to have a much darker (and browner - ?) tint to it and it actually got in the way - it was *too* dark this is MUCH better thank you ED : )

i think it was a joke : P

what a lousy business model eh?

recon bird?

USAF pilots use night vision at ALL ALTITUDES - not just low-level

the USAF fights at night - in all weather -------- many ppl would like night vision in the F-15C

its gotta fight its way in : ) self-escort! : )

did i miss something? AIM-120 not included with f/a-18 early access because... ?? https://www.facebook.com/eagle.dynamics/posts/10159615567030341 is the "hornet amraam" going to be different than the "current amraam"? is the DCS AMRAAM getting an update??

*cough*said-that-about-2017*cough* (and 2016 if i recall correctly)

the low-fidelity avionics makes DCS look very..... "arcadey"

not going to get in to it in detail here - if you want, google the filename "TO1F15C3413 .pdf" referred to as the "dash 34" --- the eagle's non-nuclear weapons delivery manual https://imgur.com/Jw6c5gz many (many) awesome features that make the eagle far more lethal than is currently modeled in the sim ED has this doc for many of us, we'll never get the chance to actually fly these jets, DCS is the closest we'll ever get - getting the DCS eagle as close as possible to the real-deal, gets us close as possible to that experience who wouldn't want that??

if that's true ("if"), then that's really a raw deal for those of us who are really in to the eagle ----- i want to see the eagle brought up to DCS standards why should we be "penalized" by being stuck at FC3 levels because the eagle was developed back in LOMAC days...? but.. i really don't think that's true --- i think it is ED's desire to bring all FC3 a/c up to DCS level

wasn't it wags that said it in one of his video interviews?
