WelshZeCorgi Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 I ask because it's sort of showing its age, hard to read ABRIS, low quality textures in the back panel of the cockpit, some systems not working particularly well... whatever. Just wanted to ask if anyone's heard of news about the bs2.
King_Hrothgar Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 There is a higher resolution cockpit available in the user files section as well as some other mods, but nothing in the way of black shark 3 as far as I know.
rrohde Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Time to upgrade to the KA-52. :) +1 Or, in the interim, I'd love to see the Ka-50 "Night Hunter": PC: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | MSI Suprim GeForce 3090 TI | ASUS Prime X570-P | 128GB DDR4 3600 RAM | 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD | Win10 Pro 64bit Gear: HP Reverb G2 | JetPad FSE | VKB Gunfighter Pro Mk.III w/ MCG Ultimate VKBcontrollers.com
Elwood Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Additional optical sensor,IR A2A missile, RWR. Please! The 52 is a complete new module which I'll buy instantly. Is she comes with air/ ground radar?
Flagrum Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 God no ... not AGAIN a pointless wishlist thread ... All these ideas came up already in ... 2008? And were repeatedly posted in every "what's next", "can we please ...?", etc. thread ever since. "RWR? Please!?", "MWS asap per favor!", "FLIR would be cool", "A2A, wyh u no have it!?", etc. etc. You name it ... OPs question was, if there is anything KNOWN about some new stuff for the BS, NOT what you and I would LIKE to see. (answer is: nope.) /THREAD PLEASE. Thanks.
Elwood Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Yep Flagrum, you are right, but the temptation to dream never end.
Enduro14 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Well now that th hype and rumors are wild about a a10c upgrade heck we should look through the black shark dlc campaign for any upgrade hints too :) Intel 8700k @5ghz, 32gb ram, 1080ti, Rift S
kontiuka Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Well now that th hype and rumors are wild about a a10c upgrade heck we should look through the black shark dlc campaign for any upgrade hints too :)never saw any of those.
Yurgon Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 While reading post #2 or #3 or so, I was thinking to myself "Hey, let's make a joke about adding A2A missiles, that never gets old". You know you've spent too much time on the ED forums when you correctly anticipate the joke will be made within 5 posts. :D

3WA Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I would TOTALLY buy a Ka-52 module. Always thrilled to see a new helicopter module come out.
Barra1 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Sorry guys, would love them to fix a few things on the KA50 but I won't be buying it a third time if you know what I mean.
3WA Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) ka-52's a very different heli than ka-50. Not sure if any of it is classified. Plenty of pics of the cockpit though. As for the Igla joke, there are pics of it with 6 pylons and igla's mounted on outermost pylons. So maybe it has the software to launch 'em, maybe not. Of course, they also show pics of it carrying kh-35's ( on the ground ). So, you take the pics with a grain of salt. Edited January 22, 2016 by 3WA
NeilWillis Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I'd say the KA-50 should be sidelined completely, and a far more relevant helicopter needs to take it's place - there is definitely room for a good Russian attack helicopter, and there is one screamingly obvious candidate. I find it bizarre that the Black Shark ever made it off the drawing board in DCS World. It hardly makes an impact in the world of aviation does it. Ideally we could do with a Havoc, but I'd settle for Belsimtek bringing the Hind to the arena. The KA-50 is definitely not central to most actual, or potential air wars.
Enduro14 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) It was widely used in the special ops realm from my understanding. I just have to say I disagree the shark is very relevant and would be more so if it was the night stalker. I would side line fc3 aircraft before sidelining the original true dcs module. I will totally agree the rotor wing fleet needs more bite with more gunships. Edited January 22, 2016 by Enduro14 Intel 8700k @5ghz, 32gb ram, 1080ti, Rift S
ShuRugal Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I find it bizarre that the Black Shark ever made it off the drawing board in DCS World. The module was originally developed for the Russian military as a pilot training aide (just like the A-10C module). We just get the unclass version as a side bonus of ED filling that contract.
QuiGon Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 The KA-50 in DCS has the huge advantage, that it is a single pilot aircraft. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

3WA Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I have to agree that it is somewhat of a "fantasy" copter. I think there are only about 12 of them in existence? A good special ops copter, but rare. I'd much rather see the Havok or the Ka-52. I can see people wanting the Hind, but its getting pretty old. On the American side, modern Sea Stallion, Sea Hawk, modern UH-60 like M or Q would be nice to see. Getting some more developers like Dodosim, Cerasim, and PMDG making third party aircraft would be good also.

GGTharos Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 The KA-50 in DCS has the huge advantage, that it is a single pilot aircraft. Yup, part of the reason why it was modeled... And big part of the reason why there aren't more if them, because in RL this is a huge disadvantage.

3WA Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Yeah, its kind of a "James Bond" style copter. Reminds me of "Little Nellie" in some ways. :P Do love to fly it though! I'd like to see that rear facing flame thrower he had on lil' Nellie put on the Shark! No tailgaters! And that reminds me... Can we get a Shark pilot dressing in a tuxedo? Edited January 22, 2016 by 3WA
Yurgon Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 And that reminds me... Can we get a Shark pilot dressing in a tuxedo? Doesn't Mower fly like that? Don't know him personally, but that's how I imagine him flying the Shark. :D
Rogue Trooper Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) The KA-50 is great as she is right now. Electric systems and pit visual update is all that is required, and these ain't that important. But as an addition, what is important... no flare right or left key binds.... salvo low, medium and high independent key binds?
