  1. Im sure they will, i still have not been disapointed by ED and im used to the wait by now, also very excited with some recent news, specially with the planned revamp to the air defense AI, its just that we are one year into the hornet life and not even a single new screenshot of the ATFLIR or the AG radar, was hoping they could maybe throw us a bone :D
  2. With the F-16 going into pre sale in the very near future and with a feature list very similar to the F/A-18 when announced, i would like to ask, how long untill we see anytihng about the AG radar or the ATFLIR and the new renderer that where mentioned way before the hornet went into pre sale?
  3. Yeah, im pretty sure the enginer(s?) responsible for tuning the FM is doing the typos correction, sure. And shouldnt it be a good sign that they still are supporting the 2 year old product? They already stated they skiped ONE update to focus on delivering bigger changes in the next one. ONE update.
  4. You got the standart update schedule part wrong. Wednesday is the day updates generally come out, it was never stated that every wednesday there will be a update. Also, i know that the FM is being tweaked, and its not my intention to be disrespectful, but maybe you are doing something wrong, i have spent the whole night yesterday sparring against both AI and player controled F-18 and the F-14 is very competitive.
  5. You automatically assume he is playing air quake. Right now we are very limited in our capacity to simulate EW and we completely lack any dedicated EW plataform. Hoping that is something they plan to adress in the future.
  6. From this weeks newsletter "we are also designing support for Integrated Air Defense System (IADS) networks and more advanced air defence AI to include shared-time searches, counter-SEAD/DEAD tactics, and SAM traps. Together, DCS will provide the most realistic and challenging air defence simulation to operate in." finally! Great news, this alone got me more hyped than any module lately. Also, bold claim, considering what we got now and the almost complete lack of proper electronic warfare simulation and no mention of it in the newsletter.
  7. I would not mind having the whole family tree of a particular aircraft avaiable, covering the whole service life, instead of a very specific model that served over a very specific time frame. We could have apropriate tomcats all the way from Vietnam to 2nd gulf war.
  8. The entitlement is strong. Also this may be the most hilariously misguided post to come out of this april fools. :D
  9. The only thing I found somewhat weird is that with engines off your don't hear absolutely no air sound, actually, you hear absolutely nothing at all (I may or may not have gotten a little too excited on my first flight and forgot my burners on the whole flight till I ran her out of fuel at 40k feet at Mach 2 :p ).
  10. Its interesting, i think its more of a general dcs thing, but regarding spine shots, i find it curious that you never see a plane with a "broken back", so to speak, like you sometimes see in that other WWII sim wich shall remain unnamed, it seem like you may hit a plane square in the middle, sometimes with multiple hits, it may lose wings and tail surfaces, but the fuselage always remains in one piece. Hope when the new damage model comes out we get something a little more dynamic .
  11. indeed :P
  12. It does, still think doesnt make much of a diference, it is still coming on a day where an open beta update would be expected, if they could not make it ready for a wednesday update it is still better than having to wait a whole week for another update.
  13. Whats the diference?
  14. Not really, the usual update day was on fridays, they changed it long ago and stated the reason was if anything got badly broken with the update they could release a hotfix on friday. So not really out of schedule for an update.
  15. This will happen for sure, i know i'll eventually troll the **** out of my friends, no doubt :D
  16. If I remember correctly the Christmas release hype was all created by the community, I don't remember any oficial sources even hinting at a possible Christmas release, especially when they gave a much greater window to begin with.
  17. Yes, It is modelled, you can have three layers of wind in DCS, generally you can find this information on the mission briefing. Generally.
  18. I'm pretty sure he also doesn't use the gau-8 so there won't be any DU dust residues to poison virtual villages for years to come. If incendiary munitions are ever implemented, anyone will have the option to use it or not in their loadouts, but you cannot pretend they where not a big part of warfare for decades.
  19. Almost seems to be going for the radar dish, attacking from higher up ( around 30000ft) has mitigated the isue somewhat for me. Edit: double sniped :P
  20. Hope the hype building don't bite them in the ass.
  21. I truly hope when we get/if we get the promised revamp to damage models the "hanging things from missing wings" problem goes away, as it's quite common and quite annoying.
  22. Not at all, we just go back to the previous problem with ai sniping you trough forests...
  23. There is no swiss hornet in game, there is swiss skins, but the plane modeled is a specific US variant.

    Indeed, great news.

    That didnt sound like confirmation of a mosquito module. Not getting my hopes up till we have confirmation that its not only an AI unit.
