I was just thinking about the Roland a couple of days ago and now I see this on Fratzbook:

 

 

 

Thanks ED!

Guys, go make a "I want DCS F-16" thread in the wishlist section, but this thread is about the Official Updates linked earlier in the thread. Stay on topic.

I hope ED create the APK-9 Datalink pod for the new Su-24M model. The old one can shot the Kh-59 without this datalink pod, Lol...

That was my fault, I started it.

 

The Su-24 Model looks Phenomenal!

So have we figured out what the improvement is?!

If you're referring to Wags' post from way back in September, it's probably the wake effects on the water.

 

The most recent post was of the Su-24, which looks awesome! ;) And I gotta say it: in the second pic from underneath, it looks almost as if it's flying over brown-colored terrain. Kinda like Nevada... :P (I have a vivid imagination)

i think we are close to some form of declaration or realization... either EDGE, Su-27,F-15AFM, F-18 projects are moving along and we see some proof of it, or they are not and slowly ED changes its business stance or adopts different approach.. nobody is chained to ED forums obviously.. would i like superb AI with dynamic campaign and fully clickable F-15,Su27,24,35, Mig-27,21,29,31? .. yes yes yes.. but considering reality i believe most probably not..

 

not to mention the new modern planes that according to the development of 30 year old planes speed at which they are designed and implemented in DCS i can safely say not going to happen at all..

 

so, its just realization of what DCS will be, ..for me its mostly a platform to experience detailed machine behavior and get the "feel" of it.. not so much to play it as a game, or simulation of aerial warfare..but just that specific plane, the weight, like some sort of semi-military FSX game.. so for me, no problems, i accepted "reality" long time ago.. don't waste time wishing ED to become something they cannot for obvious reasons ( niche market ) versus big markets that are needed to really succeed with ultra big companies that employ hundreds if not thousands of programmers ..

 

 

maybe in the future, like 20 years from now, making games will be more easy since AI programmers will exist so you can specify what you want and it can create it for you, so other programmers are more oriented to heavy duty stuff of the game and not in wasting time on making a house look a little better, or river with better shading etc..

 

How about we all wait until ED finishes coding and developing some very important factors for DCS World that will better enable production of modules that are wished for so much in these forums? Really no way to tell until those variables are included into the equation. Those 30 year old planes will be easier to produce once a protocol (that includes new improvements to engine, coding etc) for DCS development is created.

 

This is a project still in development, people.:)

 

That is all.

The Su-24 Model does look Phenomenal! but we still need more flyable NATO aircraft.

At the very least Silver Dragon found something interesting which hasn´t been in any official screenshots AFAIK:

More gorgeous models beside the Su-24.
