Mmhhh...realtime Weather like in FSX would be great:D Just make a connection to a "Weather-Server", choose your Country and have fun with local Weather conditions:) I think real dynamic Weather is to hard for any Desktop Computer. It is toooo complex. That's why you have(in FSX) the ability to connect to any Kind of "Weather-Server" (whatever it is called) and download the Weather Data every 5 mins or so.

I'm so happy that the first two Modules(BS and AH64) will be Helo's and no fixed Wing:)

I also never bought on of these Sims. I started with Gunship 2000 and F-117A Stealth Fighter.

:megalol: Yeah dude, me too;)

I have a X-52. Great HOTAS. And I think I will buy the Saitek Pedals exlusively for DCS:BS. Oh, and I can call a TrackIR for my own:P For me, it is important as a good HOTAS;)

Believe me, fraps will need much more ressources then AI Units. If it runs smoothly with fraps, then it will run at minimum the same fps rate with Units (without fraps):thumbup: edit: Wait as long as you can with buying a CPU. Intel and AMD will bring out new CPU Socket's(AMD-AM3/Intel-LGA1366) for their new CPU's 04/2008 - 01/2009. Which means, that they will no longer compatible with current ones(AMD-AM2+/Intel-775). If you then want to buy a new CPU in 2009, you have to buy a new Motherboard....wasted money. But if you have the money, go buy it A new CPU Architecture will(always) bring more performance (even on a single core). So better wait for the new CPU's.

Some might go back to Counterstrike:P 5+ hours (Glad I have no girlfriend and children.....mmmhh...why is that?:D)

And that's why the F15 E won't come out. It is classified. And as Wags already said, ED will only bring out content that is non-classified. And this is a really good Idea:thumbup: There are enough Aircraft's out there, which are not classified. You want the E-model? Go on and make it yourself when ED brings out the tools. Don't know how the Radar is exactly working? Or the CMS? Or the the correct length of the wings.? Or..... :D They also don't. And then you have an Aircraft which is not 99% correct simulated, you will get a 80% correct simulated Aircraft. They never said 100%!! But as close as it gets, means no classified stuff! ED is making the right choise.:thumbup: (Sorry for my crappy english:music_whistling:) edit: I want the EF2000. Any spy here?:P

Something like that: http://www.falconlog.nl/default.aspx?comp=logbook&User=492 It also has Squadron stats: http://www.falconlog.nl/default.aspx?comp=squadron/main&sqnId=71 (edit: It is a 3rdparty tool and a 3rdparty website.) We don't need it to feel like an hero or as we had big nuts. It is only showing statistics. And it's interesting to see how often my teammates flying, what mission types they prefer and so on. A ranking system should be working similar(not exactly...but similar) to the Falcon4 one. If you fly long enough without friendley fire and follow the ATC and don't crash you Aircraft etc. then you can climb to the next Rank after some while. Sorry, I can't explain that in much detail in english. Hope you understand what I mean. I don't want the next rank for shooting 10 Tanks or something like that. It's a Simulation. It should feel a bit like in real life....just a bit. Not like Counterstrike.

:noexpression: Hope it will come at least with the second Module.

A friend of me asks me for the link. But it is not longer available! Is there any new content/changes that makes it necessary to re-record it? Cheers Alex

Don't be so lazy:music_whistling: Great Video. :thumbup:

I personally need no "Ranking" system. But a statistic function would be nice.

Less air drag as with the Mi-28 version of gun, I think. And the gun is maybe more accurate as the AH64 gun, becaus of the length of the gun. But this is only what I guess.

Uhmmm...because the name of the Game is DCS:B(lack)S(hark) and is in the first Module an Helo-sim?:doh:

Correct.:thumbup:

In 5 years, everybody should have an eight or sixteen core CPU, 16Gb and more Ram and a Broadband connection with enough capacity:music_whistling::P edit: And hopefully a big community with many many Online Sqaudrons :)

Nah...you can bring a PC to a colocation. Then you have a dedicated Server with 100Mbit up/down. (Price starts from 27,99€...not too much!) Where is the Problem? Our Falcon Squad have 66 acitve Pilots today. And we sometimes flew with the Freebirds...another 15-20 Pilots. You now understand why it can be relevant to have the option to host up to 30 player and more? :smilewink:

Mmmhh..30 KA50's are maybe too much. But with mixed Aircraft types(later with community Addons and official Modules) it is realistic. Thx for answer, even if it does not really the answers the question:P

I think this is an important question. How much players can play in a coop mission/campaign? It should at least up to 30 players. I think 30 is a realistic number. We are sometimes flying Gorilla flights and are limited by the Falcon4AF MP code to maximum of 24+Host. We need sometimes more than 28 seats...but like I said, there can only be 24+host. So the code should be able to handle at minimum 30 Player on a dedicated Server. Please dear Beta-testers or Wags....tell us what you think/know(or better what you have tested):)

:lol: My first idea when I read the question;) I just wanna see the final Version installed on my PC and a lots of Aspirin when I read the Handbook:book::cry::D @Weta43: There should be only one Setting: 100% real ;)

1. F16 (Because I come from Falcon4 AF+OF). 2. F15 Because it is a two-seater and I wanna fly in MP with friends. 3. BUT: I wanna first see some Helo's like AH64 and MI-24. Then I wanna have some fixed Wings were I know where the knob's 'n' stuff is located in the Pit. But for now, I'm a bit tired to fly always fixed Wings.

If you using a hi-quality Soundcard, I think it won't eat much CPU. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it depends on how good the Soundengine is written...don't know. But generally it should not that much with a good Soundcard.

A must...YES YES YES!!!:thumbup: How can anyone playing a Sim without it??? Racingsim, Helosim, Flightsim.....even ArmA!! I never will(can:P) play anymore any kind of Sim without it! :thumbup: And by the way...the next 820€ is for a 22" Touchscreen TFT:D Together with a TrackIR it become just incredible:P LOL Yeah...me too. Everytime I watch any Sim in Pitview :) And sometimes when I test anything in ArmA or Falcon and I forgot to turn on the TrackIR and I try to move my Head, I have to laugh because its unbelievable how it gets naturally :D

Sorry for Offtopic, but did any of you know what is happen to this site: http://leftside-limited.com/index.html ? I'd like to build a collecitve like the one shown there, but there is no Video....only a Video for the Stick.
