Ill just add my subjective 2c here. Once the Hornet gets ALL of its weapon functionality Im gonna have fun trolling enemy defences with the HARMs, Im probably gonna try some weird all AIM9X loadout for another type of trolling down in the weeds with the Flankers, as well as an all AMRAAM loadout for some Link16 fun with some fellow Hornet trollers. With all of that said, Im gonna be spending the majority of my time in the F14, because Mach2+, no fancy fbw systems, and a buddy in the back seat to guide those long range sticks in, kind of trumps the Hornet in the cool factor by a mile ;)

That 2 minute video of the Tomcat tearing at supersonic on the deck, with the Jester calling out threats is just...making the wait excruciatingly painful :)
-
Great stuff. I don't even mind the placeholder graphics, they still look awesome.
-
Basically what it comes down to is there is no FIXED date for the early access release of this module. Yet. Im sure there will be, and when they do announce it I will prepurchase the module. If they do not, thats fine too, but it would be a first. Allowing prepurchase of a module without a release date was also a first in a long time for Eagle Dynamics but I would rather not waste any more time commenting on that, as discussing business practices is AFAIK a bannable offense.

DCS 2.5.0.14304 NTTR night scenes are terrible.
OnlyforDCS replied to DaveRindner's topic in Object Bugs
Turn this on. 2.5 is built around this feature. If you have this off you might as well be playing another (much uglier) game. -
Radio/ATC/AI issues : Will they be resolved one day ???
OnlyforDCS replied to olidz's topic in DCS 2.9
Oh, look. A rhetorical question. :) -
Yeah I think its now definite, we won't see the F14 before ED's "flagship" module. Thanks for the update Cobra.
-
Well its not like the previous versions of DCS were immune to these pesky leaks. They've been with us in one form or another for quite a while (depending on the build, patch version etc.) From what experience Ive had with memory leaks in DCS they manifest themselves quickest usually in multiplayer, and or basically any time you entered a new server, mission etc. it would make the problem worse.
-
A memory leak will affect performance, and ultimately the ability of the program to continue running after "breaking" through the available memory buffer. It's a pretty major bug, in any software application. Whether it is treated as such depends on its severity (i.e. how long you can play on a certain memory configuration without crashing etc.)
-
Sorry for being offtopic, but interpreting confirmation that ED is developing this moudle based on that post is stretching the actual meaning of the post very, very thin.
-
At the most Im hoping for a "special" announcement on Feb 19th. Probably that the module's art assets are complete (for the F14B) and that the early access release candidate has gone into EDs hands for final testing. Would be really cool if it were true :)
-
Not on the best rig here, but trees do not really seem to affect my performance on the Caucassus map in 2.5. Gotta say this speedtree tech is pretty cool.

F-14 low speed prowess vs Other Aircraft
OnlyforDCS replied to Hummingbird's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
I hope that this will be implemented in some way for force feedback users. Obviously not at the real force values, but something along the lines of the other force feedback using jets we already have in the game? It would make what would be an awesome module even better. -
I see this reapeated so often, that its become some kind of gospel on here. This is NOT TRUE. DCS will recognize control panel tweaks (I use it to turn on adaptive vsync) you just have to have the game in TRUE FULLSCREEN mode. So you need to hit ALT + ENTER when you enter the cockpit of your game. For some reason the fullscreen mode which is selectable in the option screen is actually borderless windowed mode.
-
Thank you, I was hoping this was the case. I managed to get Normandy to run reasonably well previously. Thanks again guys. Will be installing soon.
-
Like the title says, Ive been waiting for 2.5 for quite a few months now but now Ive noticed that they changed the recommended requirements for the new and improved DCS. So my question is for all of those who still have the "old" GTX970: How does the new map run on your hardware?
-
So many groundpounders here. Lol.....not gonna be in any of my loadouts ;) Nice of Heatblur to be doing this, not that it was in any way required or even needed, I think its fair to say its much appreciated.
-
You really think that Eagle Dynamics will just drop the module with no sort of announcement or indication that it is coming on such and such a date?
-
Yes I will preorder. When the Hornet gets a solid early access release date. Not before that.

Does the F18's prepurchase affect the F14s EA?
OnlyforDCS replied to OnlyforDCS's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
No need to dig through the past. So much has happened in the meantime, priorities changed, the studio split up into two developers etc. etc. A straightforward question was asked and answered very much to my satisfaction by both the developer and a poster who is very intimately involved with testing the module. (I very much doubt he was a tester back in 2015, but please correct me if Im wrong) -
The real question should be which aircraft would be more fun to fly and why? Every jet fighter jock here should really try the WWII birds DCS has to offer. IMO it will make em a better virtual pilot in any of the modern jets, especially those that lack "real" FBW systems like the F14. I for one can't wait for both modules. Im buying both as soon as they hit early access with a solid release date. But I won't lie to you. The F14 is my dream jet. Im going to live in it for a while :)

Great stuff, thanks again! :thumbup: -

OnlyforDCS replied to OnlyforDCS's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Thats a very, how do I put this, tactful reply. I wasn't asking for a release date, or anything like it, it was a very straighforward question but thanks for the reply anway. From it I can infer any number of things but Ill refrain from doing that as it will probably only lead to further dissapointment on my part. Good luck to you and hopefully you can get the Tomcat into our grubby little hands sooner rather than later. :thumbup: -
Im pretty sure the answer to this is no.
