wizav Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 Imagine if we could go out of plane and move to Airport "Caffee Bar" and chat with fellow Blue/Red m8's I don't see that as difficult to implement but that would be awesome. a simple Chat Lobby where we could consume Vodka and talk how awesome we are in the skies.

Shadow KT Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 You mean like Discord, Team Speak, Skype, etc. ? 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Jockcop Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 You mean like Discord, Team Speak, Skype, etc. ? Exactly. This is all covered already. That's the issue with social areas in online games. There is little point because you can communicate anytime with people regardless or where they are. Games like Star Citizen are using a face tech system to copy your face move movements from webcam onto your face in the game. That's obviously not appropriate for DCS. Modules- F15, F18, Spitfire, Mirage F1, Persian Gulf, Normandy 2.0, Syria, WW2 assets. "Try to have the same number of landings as you have takeoffs"

That's obviously not appropriate for DCS. Well… wrong tense — it's not so much “are” as “hopes to maybe some day (if the hardware manufacturer does not go broke like the last time they tried something similar), while somehow also supporting VR headsets but no-one could ever explain how” :lol: But yes, it turned out to be pretty pointless when Everquest tried the exact same thing. Ultimately, all such attempts at in-game solutions will fall afoul of being tied to the game, which unavoidably makes them substandard, inflexible, and largely unnecessary and unused compared to stand-alone programs. ❧ ❧ Inside you are two wolves. One cannot land; the other shoots friendlies. You are a Goon. ❧ ❧

The Star Citizen system is an "off the shelf" one from another company. Not tied to SC. Its scheduled for Q4 this year. Whether it gets delayed is another thing though!!.
