Why would you not want something?

 

EDIT: Or rather actively want something not to be added?

"not want to see"? Like in "it would make me sick!!!" or "My eyes would bleed if I had to see it fly over Georgia!!!1" or "I just HATE it so much, I would certainly de-install DCS if it ever shows up in the Webstore!!!!111"?

 

Or rather "If ED pays me xxx USD, I could probably live with it."?

Any particular reason?

 

Just wondering- the Crusader is generally pretty popular (until you find out the Colt feed installation was a real joke, making the whole "Last of the Gunfighters" meme pretty useless...)

I can't tell you how much I want to not see this thing charging around the skies out-performing damn-near everything else in damn-near every area, 'coz that's how it's been in every flying game that's ever tried to portray it.

H-21 Flying Banana... (No I am not kidding)

Please DO NOT waste any resources/time on this ugly stupid looking aircraft..

 

Please pick another helicopter instead. (ANY helicopter)

Groundhog day?

 

EDIT: OK this board is hokey. I posted this because Echo had the exact same posting twice.. (Of course now the 2nd one has disappeared.. )

And no I am not drinking.. LOL

So many threads about "who wants X? " of course we want it .... But if you had to pick one you didn't want, what would it be ?

 

 

Never had any particular love for the F-8 for some reason ... F-4 sure, A-4 , A-6, A-7, yup. F-14 can't wait !

Then why do we have thread with people asking if they want a plane added ? :pilotfly:

I can definitely respect that.

 

Don't tell anybody, but I'm actually the same way over the F-16- it's been done so many times that it doesn't interest me. I think a lot of folks want it based on familiarity- even more so than its multi-role capability, whereas its familiarity removes all interest I have.

 

Want to give me a small-mouth F-16 Block 30 (the F-16N), we can talk, because it has one purpose, and one purpose alone, and it ain't multi-role, and it's not even "real" ACM- but it would fit perfectly with the Nevada map. But anything else? Count me out.

I don't think the F-16 has been done so many times. You can count the whole Spectrum Holobyte Falcon series as a single creative instance with multiple upgrades (and Wing Commander doesn't count).

 

You could argue the same for the SU-27 Flanker series culminating in Flaming Cliffs and bridging across to DCS.

 

I'd be VERY happy to see the F-16 make it into DCS :).

 

However ... in keeping with the topic ... I hope never to see WWI era simulation. Why? Because it'd take up time & resources for DCS to flesh out into the sim I'd really like it to be!

"A true 'sandbox flight sim' requires hi-fidelity flyable non-combat utility/support aircraft."

Wishlist Terrains - Bigger maps

Wishlist Modules - A variety of utility aircraft to better reflect the support role. E.g. Flying the Hornet ... big yawn ... flying a Caribou on a beer run to Singapore? Count me in. Extracting a Recon Patrol from a hastily prepared landing strip at a random 6 figure grid reference? Now yer talking!

I'd mention every plane that is still highly classified like the new "stealth" planes, F-35, F-22, PAK-FA, J-20, late gen 4+ like Su-35, Rafale, Typhoon, Gripen NG, latest F-16/F-15 variants, etc.

Making a sim out of those planes is just fantasy...

Tell that to VEAO.There developing the Typhoon,Rafale & Gripen on their roadmap list.As for the person who doesn't like the H-21 Flying Bananna.I'm not one of those who hates it.It could be used for a Vietnam map since they were used there for a couple of years.I'm willing to bet there's some on this forum that would actually buy it,including me.:)

You bunch of goddamned hipsters.

 

ED forums is the last place I expected to see a "Your favourite aircraft sucks' thread.

 

Put me down for anything made after 1965. Now get your computer simulating a flight computer off my lawn.

First, the "AG in mah Tomcat, or I won't buy it" stuff after the LNS announcement, now this... What is with this community, I can't even.

 

The F-8 would be indispensable for the early (Rolling Thunder) Vietnam-era, ya know.

 

Personally, I'd twist this around.

 

I would not like to see aircraft which were prototypes or had only very small, basically pre-production series (i.e.: Ka-50, Su-25T).

 

Or rather, I'd say, I'd like to see developer resources poured into aircraft, which were used/produced in big numbers and/or were fundamental in historical conflicts.

 

You know, like the F-8 Crusader...

i dont think this question is TO bad, as the what DO you want questions do not tell what you DONT want, as there is to many in between that you COULD like.

 

but i DO like this community, you put 3 "pilots" together and you get 5 opinions out of it :D

 

for the question:

no "fantasy" aircraft wanted, everything that was produced and used is fine, although i wont buy anything.

 

regards,

RR

I might have a few planes for the list. I'll list some examples and why.

 

But here's the disclaimer first: I ain't got nothing against any of them, I would just recommend to a third party thinking about developing those planes that if there is any other plane that could be created as well, do that instead.

 

- F-84 Thunderstreak: Same role as F-86, just worse. I would maybe buy it because the German Luftwaffe had it, but most likely not.

- Variants of fighters we already have and that are very similar. So while I would most likely buy a BF-109E, since it is different, I don't think I would buy a TA-152.

 

In addition to that I'd like to see planes that fill interesting roles, not too many of the same role.

And I'm not a fan of orphan planes, that don't have a proper opponent. But that's not necessarily so, if the plane is otherwise interesting.

I still don't get it. If there is any aircraft that I don't want to see in ... MY ... DCS, then I will just not buy it? "Problem" solved?
