i wish DCS black shark was more hardcore

[m1tp2king]

hi. I love black shark. very interesting. but..

I wish that you needed to ask the tower for permission to take off.

I wish you needed to land to end a mission.

hoping for ultra realism.

to do all the things a real pilot has to do.

[dburne]

Well you do have the option to ask the tower for permission to startup, taxi, and takeoff right?

 

I don't know but the sim seems pretty hard core to me...

[ReaperSVK]

it's your choice really, when I am playing campaign, I always use ATC and I always land before exiting mission

[Vedexent]

if you couldn't take off without permission, that seems to be it would be less realistic; they don't have those things clamped to the tarmac and only the ATC has the clamp release switch.

 

I can sympathize with wanting more complete/accurate military simulation parameters. however.

 

You can either rigorously stick the rules you've laid out yourself, when flying solo, and/or find a "hardcore" MilSim squadron/group that enforces that kind of behavior in their missions.

 

Good luck with the latter, however - the group of people that are willing to rigorously adhere to actual military mission design / planning / protocol seems to be an infinitesimally small minority.

Check out the 132nd on 132ndvirtualwing.org

We use dedicated human controllers and try to stay true as possible to real life procedures.

The wing contains active military and post active military personeel including JTAC and controllers.

Easy enough to add a condition to missions that requires the bird to be parked in a designated spot on the runway to flip the final bit for completion.

 

Forcing ATC compliance is more difficult. IRL, pilots have administrative action taken against them for violating ATC instructions when in controlled airspace. No real way to implement that here, as the sim does not have any RPG-elements built in.

You want it more hardcore? Add wind, my friend.

I recommend Vaicom if you like communicating with AI for realism. It's pretty immersive to use. And really convenient and fast for handing targets to AI wingmen.

 

Even playing online I prefer to use ATC and land before leaving where possible. This works well there too.

Misspelling, its Viacom.

Same here, always land, even when your wife is calling you, she will ge use to your:

:pilotfly: I'm landing!!!!!

And this will add a bit more stress in touching gently your fav bird and so realism. :D

 

Anyway is anyone using this?

Once you mastered that, only fly from night missions, with rain or snow at -40°C.

If you can start the engines :lol:

[BitMaster]

it gets nasty with this version below -40°C iirc, that's why I didnt say 50 lol

You've listed things not related to the module itself.

Actually they are related to the "Realism Settings" of the single mission.

Someone should make and upload a -40 mission then, with strong wind and AA everywhere and name it Jorge Quiere Ser Hardcore.
