TL- DR .... If it has to change, please find a fair way of allowing decent offline play.
Hi all
New to forums but been flying in DCS for a long time ... Offline.
I understand time and tech change, I have no control over what ED want to do with their product.
But I hope they give consideration to those who like to fly offline.
Currently I work during the week, I do not fly except maybe a quick mission (offline.)
Weekends I have time to fly, I have log in to fly the AV8.
Fine ok it's new and I don't fly it often.
If, from 2.5, this will apply to all the modules I brought in the past that's a big deal to me
(and others here. I never had a problem with starforce, but I wasn't changing my hardware often.)
Is it not possible to tie the "time" to the DCS process ?
2 -5 Days in time in the sim between activations sounds reasonable to me.
If going on calendar days, as long as possible then between forced logins.
I'm sure that eventually I wont have access to the internet at all, but I'll still have the hardware, and the software installed and paid for.
I'd like to be able to still fly.
I had been looking forward to 2.5... Having all maps in one place, campaigns like Maple flags BFT missions and the a10c redflag campaign. Fa 18, Corsair and the F4... One day maybe the EE Lightning. Now ... I don't know. I find that sad.
I have made considerable investment in the hardware, specifically with DCS 2.5 in mind.
I am planning on entering MP as friends of mine have started flying in DCS, so for the time being I may be online in more often, but not guaranteed.
Sorry for the long first post
I hope that ED is able to understand and come up with something workable for everybody (The Jeremy Clarkson\Captain Slows of the DCS World.)
