leafer Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 i love the shades around the mountains and the haze! ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
Sabre-TLA Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Awesome job! We need more user made campaigns like this one! :thumbup: MapleFlagMissions - Read Our Blog for Updates
Yurgon Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Wow that looks awesome! Makes me want to fly the campaign again, even if it's still in World 1.0 ;)
jcbak Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Baltic Dragon is one of the best. Of that, there is no doubt. His missions are worth paying for.

BeachAV8R Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Baltic Dragon is one of the best. Of that, there is no doubt. His missions are worth paying for. This for sure. His briefings are great - and the creative use of the F10 menu is a nice feature. And..I mentioned it in the article..the technical sound of the radio messages (they sound like radio messages) is very good. I've only dabbled in the Mission Editor a bit..but I can imagine how time consuming getting all that stuff together was. Really nice job and worth a few bucks (or more) to get some cool gameplay out of DCS. I'm super psyched to continue the campaign... I'd like to post more stuff, but I don't want to ruin any of the story as it unfolds. :) Thanks to Baltic Dragon and ED for allowing me to shove the two items together for the purposes of the article. I can't wait to see the new clouds that ED is working on! BeachAV8R
BeachAV8R Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 i love the shades around the mountains and the haze! Indeed. The visibility and haze, when coupled with low-angle light and deep shadows really makes World 2.0 look fantastic. I tell ya..the sun glare and stuff is really good. I haven't experimented with the different modes of HDR, but I liked the one I used. BeachAV8R
Wolf Rider Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 A lovely showcase.... and have to applaud the end shot Nice work :thumbup: City Hall is easier to fight, than a boys' club - an observation :P "Resort is had to ridicule only when reason is against us." - Jefferson "Give a group of potheads a bunch of weed and nothing to smoke out of, and they'll quickly turn into engineers... its simply amazing."

BeachAV8R Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 LOL..that end shot is pretty embarrassing. I got a wing full of stand-off weapons and there I am diving into the valley. My only excuse is that I've been away from the A-10C for a bit..and couldn't really remember the steps to get things like LGBs on target in my panic to help out the downed Hind. A more proficient pilot would have gotten a nice scenic picture of them, in their cockpit, back at home base with empty ordnance rack and an Mi-24 parked next to them.. LOL.. BeachAV8R
leafer Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 You are grounded until a module faster than stand-off weapons is released! ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

Suchacz Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Wow, I almost cant believe that this is our good old Gerogia :D For me it looks even better than the NTTR! Per aspera ad astra!

=Mac= Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Everything about the graphics is astounding. Everything I've seen about EDGE is just killing me! But, patience is a virtue so I remain virtuous. There is one small exception: the tree shadows. They look a bit too hard. Maybe they can be softened a bit? Or lightened? I DO like the shadows. They add to the realism. But they look painted on. The haze is simply awesome. Photo-realistic! Oh, and the end shot: actually, you're like 99% of us because we get shot down a lot, too. :) Well, at least I do... The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...
T_A Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Good review, made me download the campaign. TBH the terrain looks good enough and not very far from EDGE after enough mods are applied, but can't compare the cool new effects. On the second mission I was not shot at and only got partial success ( had my finger ready to spam flares for an hour) IAF.Tomer My Rig: Core i7 6700K + Corsair Hydro H100i GTX Gigabyte Z170X Gaming 7,G.Skill 32GB DDR4 3000Mhz Gigabyte GTX 980 OC Samsung 840EVO 250GB + 3xCrucial 275GB in RAID 0 (1500 MB/s) Asus MG279Q | TM Warthog + Saitek Combat Pedals + TrackIR 5 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

MegOhm_SD Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Just WOW...this certainly addresses a lot of the conjecture about what EDGE will do for our old map. Nice job! And thank you for this.

baltic_dragon Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Thanks to Chris for a great review and to all of you for words of appreciation for the campaign! I might have a little surprise up my sleeve when it comes to the EW and I am working on another SP campaign + a very extensive SP mission with great replayability, but that is a bit off topic here. On topic - great news to see that DCS 1.0 campaign works so well with DCS 2.0 :) although I am eager to see what will change in the Mission Editor and to hear the new ATC! 1 For more information, please visit my website.

Blooze Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 I have been involved in beta testing some of Baltic Dragon's new adventures and can assure everyone that he still has a few tricks up his sleeve that will raise the bar for mission design for both SP and MP missions. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
