Nosferatuwhisky 1-1 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 And do both pilot and copilot (RIO?) have launch-missile buttons on their joysticks? The joystick you see in the Rio cockpit as far as I know, only co tells the radar. It’s not an aircraft controlling stick. I may be wrong though.

The RIO can shoot fox 1 and 3, but so can the pilot. The pilot has ultimate responsibility for the Aircraft. Who actually shoots is up to the crew.

D4n Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 So will F-14 release as early access soon, without Jester (who needs it, there are enough players willing to team up with players), and Jester be available as extra module later on? (PLEASE release F-14 Beta or so as soon as possible! I don't need "jester"! There are enough pilots to offer to take pilot- or RIO seat!)

JESTER is critical to the F-14..it won't be a functioning module without it. Just because you don't need it doesn't mean others won't need it (IE offline pilots, etc)..so..you'll get it when it's ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4n Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Shouldn't the priority be set on multiplayer?

That's where the missions are most realistic (when a pilot actually replies realistically to a request/statement) While I understand that F14 is inherently a crew platform, DCS has stated again and again that vast majority of customers are single players.

Naquaii Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 We're far along and getting closer all the time, we will release with at least basic Jester functionality that will work both in SP and MP. It is not though what's holding back the release of the aircraft so even if we didn't include Jester at first that wouldn't make the aircraft release sooner. In regards to the joystick in the back seat, the one that's visible in the clips and screenshots atm, that's the HCU (Hand Control Unit) that's used to control the radar, TCS and TID. The LANTIRN will have it's own joystick to the side when it's present. AIM-7 and AIM-54 launch from the back seat is from a launch button at the weapons control panel at the left side of the RIO pit. The pilot can launch those as well from his stick, in addition to all the other weapons. In regards to controlling the aircraft from the backseat it's a no atm, but we never say never. What you have to realize though is that the back seat operation is not a part time job and doing both at the same time would put you at quite the disadvantage. Jester should more than fill that role and if you want more granular/fine control over the radar you would need a human RIO anyhow to get the most out of it.

That's where the missions are most realistic (when a pilot actually replies realistically to a request/statement) This could not be more wrong. 95 to 99% of DCS players stay in single-player and from what I see most of the open multiplayer servers are not that realistic.

Not the owner's fault it's hard to make random people coordinate in a realistic manner... if the 95% number was true, and maybe it is... it's a damned shame. There's so much great gameplay to be had playing with friends... I'm hoping the f-14 helps change the single player nature of DCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
