amalahama Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) I've just seen in the TBS page: http://www.thebattlesim.com/index.php?scr=news&news_sid=19&lang=en&end_pos=3 Now what everybody wonders is: When DCS:AC-130U?:lol: Regards!! Edited August 12, 2008 by amalahama
joey45 Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Thats a big step.... would rather fly a faster ground pounder though... The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

GGTharos Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 The AC-130 is for the military ... it would probably be rather boring in terms of an entertainment sim. Anyway, it took you guys a while to notice, yeesh ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
deviletk Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Way to go ED! But... I think that would been awesome to do a mission with pilots and people on the gun stations. For a bit of variation :) Regards Alex "Snuffer" D. AMD FX8350 (8 core) 4.1GHZ ::: 8GB Dominator 1600mhz ::: GTX660 2GB ::: 2xHD ::: 24" ASUS
amalahama Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 The fact is ED have developed new technologies for it (IR imaginery for example) which could be used in future addons. It's hard to believe a complete AC-130 simulation soon, though. And personally, I prefer others airplanes being modelled rather than AC-130. Regards!!
GGTharos Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 I wonder what IR imagery could be used for. A-10C? ... AH-64? Hm.... hm ... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
amalahama Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 I wonder what IR imagery could be used for. A-10C? ... AH-64? Hm.... hm ... Even A-10A if an A-10A's block compatible with LANTRIN pods is modelled. Regards!
SUBS17 Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 I wonder what IR imagery could be used for. A-10C? ... AH-64? Hm.... hm ... The AC130 in COD4 is quite cool to operate the guns it would certainly be a good addon especially with TI.:thumbup: [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
Kusch Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Super! :) Give me "flying telephone pole" (SA-2)!
EagleEye Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) Congratulations!

Boberro Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Is it mean that AGAIN release date will be delayed? Hope not ;] 1 Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
VMFA117_Poko Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) They probably will say: "We still plan to release it in 2008". You shouldn't count on any other answer Boberro. You're not a first day here. I got used to wait but with every day I'm loosing my interest... Hey, just look at current active users list. Edited August 13, 2008 by Poko24 1

badaboom Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Fantastic News,The more $$DCS/ED bring in on profesional Military simulators,the more talent they will attract for development of recreational sims that will have better realism. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
jctrnacty Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 I hope that they will be able to use it in DCS. I mean most of the realistic data. And It would be great to fly AC-130 SPectre.

Force_Feedback Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Let's hope we'll get a Herc module in some time, if it has guns, that's great, if they're 'classified', then no gung, but then we should be able to do tactical air drops, and dump hundreds of flares at once. All that with realistic engine out performance, clickable cockpit and flushable lavs (can I program the advanced s**t model? ;)). Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
RedTiger Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 This is great, great news for ED and can only mean good things for their commercial sims BUT PLEASE don't spend any extra time making DCS: Fat Albert. I'd like to have a fighter jet to play with before I hit 40. :P
159th_Viper Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 PLEASE don't spend any extra time making DCS: Fat Albert.

RedTiger Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 But why? A "Fat Albert" matches your age much better... :D ;) Hey, I'm 27. I was just a small child when that show was still around. 40 - 27 = ? Now do you see what I mean about having to wait for a fighter? ;)
RedTiger Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 As with all Mere Mortals - we all gravitate towards the Money................and you know what that means, now don't you ;) You're going to pay me to by a DCS module for a AC-130? It won't happen any other way. :D
VMFA117_Poko Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 You're going to pay me to by a DCS module for a AC-130? It won't happen any other way. :DExacly, sorry to say that: I'll buy every one of each module listed by Wags but if AC-130 would be released as a commercial sim, I won't buy it. However I really doubt it will ever out as a commercial product.
borchi_2b Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 one thing i guess is, do to the contract, we will have to wait for black shark even longer, same happend when they got the contract for the a-10 sim 1 http://www.polychop-sims.com
Stephy Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 one thing i guess is, do to the contract, we will have to wait for black shark even longer, same happend when they got the contract for the a-10 sim well at that time the Black Shark was "just" a plugin for the sim, look at it now :smilewink:
GGTharos Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 You're wrong :) one thing i guess is, do to the contract, we will have to wait for black shark even longer, same happend when they got the contract for the a-10 sim [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
