Mgeli Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Why do you guys call this DCS if there are no new hardcore ( AFM+ Hardcore avionics and instruments) aircraft ? as I understand to call something DCS it should be the same level as A-10, P-51, Ka-50, Mi-8, Uh-1, or am I wrong? 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5blURTqmYUg
CypherGrunyev Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 your post angers me more than it should. Its called DCS : FC3 because it officially fell under ED's IP Licensing from ubisoft. So its a rebranding to let people know that FC3 is now the full IP of ED. This means no more Lock-On Modern air combat requirement...

Why not? If some of your 'understanding' contradicts reality, then you must be mistaken. Adjust your understanding to reality. Do not expect the other way round.
Mgeli Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 OK I got it but that is not right , if it is DCS it should be it (hardcore like A-10) if its something else give it other name , but that is not very important i guess. What is really interesting is that , if there is any plan to do DVD version of this product. It would be great addition to my collection of flight SIM with it's artwork and DVD disc itself. I hope ED and Wag will do right choice and will publish this game in DVD format too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5blURTqmYUg
Pyroflash Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 "Digital Combat Simulator" is a branding that denotes a wide range of products developed by Eagle Dynamics for the DCS: World environment. it does not imply anything more, or less than that. If you aim for the sky, you will never hit the ground.
fjacobsen Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Then the main program "DCS World" should also have another name, since it does not contain any harcore stuff. I see no problem.... For me "DCS - specific aircraft name, like A-10C, KA-50, P-51D, UH-1H, MI-8" titles means hardcore", while "DCS-anything else, like Flaming cliffs 3, Flamingcliffs A-10, Flaming cliffs SU-25" means softcore :) FinnJ 1 | i7-10700K 3.8-5.1Ghz | 64GB RAM | RTX 4070 12GB | 1x1TB M.2.

flag02004 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 ......not just a general platform, you've got a full module with it, Su-25, with AFM and 6DOF cockpit....
Silver_Dragon Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 The Wags worlds.... http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1480510&postcount=1 DCS stands for “Digital Combat Simulator”. DCS is a world simulation engine permitting the user to operate or direct a growing number of combat and civilian aircraft, ground vehicles and ships, from different historical eras, in different geographical locations and at different levels of fidelity.

Mgeli Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 IE is the best web browser.. to download another browser. And so DCS is the best simulation operating system, to get more aircraft. And the FC3 fighter jets are still realistic, even with simplified avionics. Also the AFM is coming for them. How come can jet be realistic if there is no AFM and simplified avionics? just because cockpit looks real ? realistic means all systems looks like real, MFD , HUD an so on, and what do we have here ?ate least they could correctly implement indications on MFD and HUD without simplification and adding helpful indications on HUD( that are absent in real life analogs) . Mig and SU MFD is not real at all , HUD some kind of reality but still not the same as in real Mig and SU , I suggest to call everything its name , but that's my own opinion nobody has to agree to it. Su-25 is okay , but what about Su-25 T? as I remember from past interview with ED, the indication on HUD is emulation of indication from Su-30 and fantasy of developers( best guess if you will), it does not represent real HUD of the Su-25T , and it its sad :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5blURTqmYUg

sobek Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 They could always change the name to DCA (Digital Combat Approximation).
