That's what I'm thinking too. :thumbup: Except the F-22 won't even be outnumbered once the F-35 is ready.

Yes, it was quite annoying. I think a variation of it could be helpful in DCS if another solution isn't found first.

I think a problem with that is that ED's damage models are already more complex than that (for player aircraft mostly). What if all the hits are in the tail section? It's hard for me to say though, since I don't know all the ways an aircraft would catch fire. It seems bullets would need to hit the fuel tanks, fuel lines, or the engine. And what would cause the difference between a hole in the fuel tank and just a leak vs. an all-out explosion. Seems fairly complicated.

Really? To me, at 250 km/h in the Mustang, it feels like I'm turning a boat.

I more agree with this. This is kind of a weird comparison, but I'll use it anyways: I've played a lot of Call of Duty in the past, and in every one of those games, no matter what the background scenery was like, you could always tell a player apart from the scenery. No matter if he was hiding in the deepest, darkest bush in the map you could still distinguish his body easily. It was annoying in that game since it made camouflaged hiding useless, but it would work very well in DCS for the planes. It's hard to describe. It's almost like a "shiny-ness". The textures used for players seemed very different from scenery textures. CoD players should know what I'm talking about.

Off Topic, but what's the 'STORM server'?

So exciting! :beer: (Soon? (aka 2 weeks)?)

Looks great! It looks top tier, very professional! :thumbup:

Must be. I hope it's as far along as we all think it is! :pilotfly:

Oh ok. Then why were they always so mysterious about whether they were actually going to go through with it? lol

http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=138946 Sooo... did we just not notice until now? This threads first post is from February. :huh: :lol:

I guess it's obvious it's more complicated than just a Yes or No you can make it. Seems like the short answer is: it probably won't be made anytime soon. :(

Oh gahhdd! How did Falcon 4 do it?!

I know, but they still have almost 190 of arguably the deadliest fighter in the world.

^^Logic ;)

The F-22 is the high performance superiority fighter, and the F-35 is the multirole that will provide the fighter mass. Both are extremely advanced. Also, the US has new advanced destroyers, and the M1A1 has never been destroyed in battle, IIRC. Not to mention there are probably some very classified technologies also available to the US military. Seems like they're pretty set to me.

I know some servers have a script that will kick clients with a ping above a specified number. I think the 104th uses this script?

These are some of the main problems.

Lol these threads are good... and funny. :lol: The banter gets a little snippy, but I always learn a lot. (Teapot you changed your avatar, nice)

No hard feelings ;) You guys have a lot of exciting aircraft in the works, and your so engaged with the community! Keep up the great work! :)

Thanks hegykc, I've been watching this thread for a while and it's becoming very impressive! Keep up the hard work (I know you will).

And there's still hope for the F-16 at least. Not by VEAO, but maybe by someone else. (If I'm not mistaken you guys said you didn't want to do the F-16)

Thanks for the clarification Pman. Sorry guys, I know it's a really wanted module but if they can't make it, they can't make it. It's not worth it if they have to make lots of compromises to get around the rules anyways. Maybe sometime in the future....

Thanks for the variety Maverick! I'll be there :thumbup:

As the title says. Maverick and the 104th have a great idea with their Red Flag (now monthly) event. Another group should host a WWII and/or Korea version! :) The community could really benefit from more of these events, IMO. (Yes, I'm looking at you DoW, ACG, and 39th VFS! ;))
