Scrape Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 Module production is increasing and 2018 is looking to shape up to DCS's most exciting year. We are already ending 2017 with a positive note, and everyone can't wait to see what comes out next. With that said we will have a lot of modern aircraft and even more coming to the battlespace in the next couple of years. Yet we have a rudimentary way of managing a persistent MP campaign. I'd like to suggest an addition to or modification of the F-10 map. We see tactical commander slots or something similar, but it's not fleshed out to assist a commander with providing up to date information to players as it could be. Even as a 10 dollar add on Battle Commander module would be acceptable to have a greater inter-connectivity to friendly assets. Bandit tracking information. Something that allows these slots to be powerful tools in the hands of the right player. I'm not sure a revision like this is already in the works, but with complex carrier ops around the corner, and ever more complicated weapons systems being developed is there the thought of how does one manage these systems outside of the flight itself? A flight can be managed quite well. Buddy lasing works between certain aircraft, and I think datalink is in the pipeline. What about the General/Admiral? It can be done now via F-10, but I think it could be done better. Let's open up the full capability of the worlds best sim! "It's amazing, even at the Formula 1 level how many drivers still think the brakes are for slowing the car down."
Kang Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 That does sound like a nice idea. Maybe a good time to remind the powers that be how the Combined Arms module really could use a little polish.
