Dino Might Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 :music_whistling::music_whistling: :music_whistling::music_whistling: i think ignorance is bliss rings truer people cant bitch about what they dont know i really dont get this thing about "communication" as ln has already communicated everything they really have to say already maybe it comes as a surprise to some people that not all things in life are performance arts to be streamed on twitch for their entertainment Except for sweet, sweet F14 videos. Yeah, I get ya. I have no issues with them working until early to mid 2017 without a peep and then all of a sudden saying "okay, it's ready." They don't owe anyone anything. It will be on them to determine the best amount of preview material to deliver at what times to maximize profits. I don't begrudge them any marketing decision they make.

grunf Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Is there gonna be 1 seater..sorry not familiar with the plane? No, but the Radar Intercept Officer can be controlled by the LNS proprietary Jester AI. You'll be even able to jump into the back seat and let the AI fly the plane (very limited). http://www.leatherneck-sim.com/f14/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappie Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I didn't, because I first saw Hot Shots! and loved it... and I don't even want to try and see the original. :D Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord.

BlackLion213 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I didn't, because I first saw Hot Shots! and loved it... and I don't even want to try and see the original. :D I understand...as a movie to watch I actually prefer Hot Shots (and part deux). However, the aerial footage from Top Gun is pretty unprecedented - especially from the 1980s. Also, despite how things may seem, Top Gun is also a silly movie like Hot Shots, its just less obvious in that regard. I actually prefer "The Making of Top Gun" to the movie itself. The clips below contain the majority of the interesting flying scenes and probably offers 70% of the experience of watching the movie. The "making of" is pretty good too and I generally prefer watching it to the movie.

BlackLion213 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 not in my book it's not unprecedented, i felt final countdown had the superior tomcat aerial footage I won't speak to the subjective preference (I prefer Final Countdown the movie, but prefer Top Gun footage). :) However, Top Gun had a lot more footage with a lot more variety (namely multiple vantage points from the aircraft itself) along with footage obtained in the air and from the ground. Final Countdown was a fun movie as well and I enjoy that footage a lot, but it didn't use the variety of techniques. That part was unprecedented. -Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was heads and shoulders above the special effects used in Top Gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheckGear Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Count me as one not onboard with DCS: F-14A/B indulging in the Hollywood Tomcat. I want to feel and know what it was like to fly the Tomcat in the real world, not on the silver screen. The last thing I want to hear is Kenny Loggins in the main menu; I want to feel like a professional naval aviator/NFO. The real world may not be as "sexy" as the fake world, but its still a heckuva lot more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
