Ok thanks for the reply , i'll have to learn to live with it then .

Is it normal for the MFD's to change everytime you switch combat modes ? It's annoying to set MFD's for A-G and A-A and switch and then have to reset them to my preference . Is this how the real world F18 works ? Am I doing something wrong ?

Fantastic work , but I cant help feeling there are more pressing problems with the F16 , namely Agm 88 and A-G radar . Without these it's not a true representation of an F16 and I couldnt give 2 hoots about graphical issues or discrepencies when we dont even have the frickin Harm !

Yep super excited for next update , were getting the F16 Xmas lights turned on by Wags !

I suppose because EA is work in progress , and software developement is not black and white . There are lists of working features you can view . Its not perfect but it is what it is , the trials and tribulations of buying in early .

Can you imagine running a business and keeping it profitable , yet also plowing money into development , advertising , marketing , the cost of sale of the product , company wages , Director dividends , managing the employees (especially the bad ones ), and then paying for a forum that everyone winges on . And then managing 3rd party modules and sub contractors . All this on a niche corner of the pc community . Holy , ED my hat is off to you ! Anyway where is my F16 external lights ? :music_whistling:

The Falcon/Viper in VR is fantastic ! I fly BMS alot in a squad , and although the Viper in DCS is EA , we all love it . Its EA , so we expect it to have downsides , but we still love it in DCS . We wont be switching to DCS for official nights any time soon but every other night we fly DCS F16 . So in short , if you have VR , its a must buy .I dont fly it non VR so not qualified to say in that area , but some guys in the squad fly it non VR and they love it just as much . With all the answers here its a tough choice but I say buy it .

I would just really like some working lights atm , the canopy can wait for me .

On a side note (excuse my ignorance !) managed to get SRS working today and what a game changer that is in DCS . Not one for using mods in DCS but for multiplayer getting UHF/VHF comms working as IVC is fantastic . And it works in the F-16 ! Wish we found this before , but hey , learn something everyday . More than likely we'll be adding this mod to our S.O.P.

Would prefer smart scaling over improved 3D models tbh . I'll take what I get though .

ATC at the moment is very buggy , hopefully with the carrier development it will carry over to land. The other sim is exceptional in this area ! Hopefully the Dev team are not too stubborn and are willing to fly it (other sim) as it may give them some ideas . I fly mainly online and generally we ignore ATC in DCS because it just doesnt work as it should . My fingers are crossed for further development , but understandably - it's no easy task !

Awesome , thats great news !

I'm not a poster on this forum , more a lurker . Love the F16 in DCS , looking forward to it getting to the level of the other version . What are the chances of getting better ATC and IVC comms ? Having Tower , Ground , Departure , Approach and proper UHF/VHF comms really add to the immersion ! Having this in DCS would be a great experience , is this something the developers can add to DCS World ? Hopefully it's possible , would appreciate any comments from the developers and the community alike . Thanks Reds

That is fine with me , but a shame nonetheless .

Yes BMS has many good modes , VRS F18 is even better , DCS has only Su25T and many people that play BMS and VRS would play DCS alot more if it had a full fidelity SEAD platform such as Mirage M2000c with ARMAT . There is not really any contradiction as i'm not requesting for a weapon system without any data on how to use it . I am suggesting it would be a good thing to include the ARMAT for the community as a whole . Also i am suggesting BMS flyers would appreciate the ARMAT and would switch to DCS because of it .
