VWJ Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I hope there will be in-game trainings. As much as I like online videos, they are very impractical to go through while flying, especially in VR. Danger zone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightfalcon Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Im not saying that everyone should get the carriers for free, I think its really immersion breaking if no one but owners can land/takeoff from the new carriers, and that you need old low resolution carrier alongside new ones. Especially if its the case for the Kuznetsov. Just a basic functionality of Stennin is not too much to ask for, while owners get the full functions. Its like if ED didn't allow you to communicate with JTAC or transport ground units via helicopter unless you own Combined Arms module PS I am still exited for Carrier module and I am going to preorder it.

The current Stennis model is not low res and everyone is able to use it. The Kuz is another story, sure. As for being able to launch and land on the SC if you don't own it, it's impossible, since you won't be able to get Tower and LSO comms and you won't be able to see and interact with the deck crew. You'd have the owners of the SC taxi around the deck based on the deck crew's instructions and then you'd have non-owners taxiing around randomly, because they don't receive instructions etc. You just can't have that,. Imagine an airport where some pilots don't listen to the ATC's instructions and go wherever they want. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Gierasimov Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Maybe one day... The Kuznetsov would be also a nice Module with Deckcrew,for a DCS SU-33 But tell you what, it sure is fun landing Su-33 on Stennis!

pimp Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 ..Just a basic functionality of Stennin is not too much to ask for, while owners get the full functions... We all already have this with the current Stennis. How you figure you should still be able to land on the SC if you don't own it? That's like wanting to fly the Hornet even if you don't own it, but don't allow me to use weapons. i9 9900k @5.1GHz NZXT Kraken |Asus ROG Strix Z390 E-Gaming | Samsung NVMe m.2 970 Evo 1TB | LPX 64GB DDR4 3200MHz EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra | Reverb G1 | HOTAS Warthog | Saitek Flight Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animaal Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I wonder if there'll be any change to how planes behave when landing and they clip the edge of the deck? I've done it a number of times, and the plane explodes. I can't help thinking that in real life, the plane's momentum would carry it onto the deck. Even if there may be a little bit of a mess to be swept up afterwards. :P Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48K, Kempston joystick Interface, Alba Cassette Recorder, Quickshot II Turbo Joystick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cordite Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 On the screenshots page, there are “holes” aligned throughout the flight deck. What is their purpose, rather than having a flat surface? Tried googling, with no success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_Dragon Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Features and "after release" https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/supercarrier/ DCS: Supercarrier is the most detailed and realistic simulation of a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier ever created. A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is a nuclear-powered fortress at sea with a crew of over 6,000 sailors and airmen. The angled flight deck with arrestor wires and four steam-powered catapults support air wing operations of up to 90 aircraft. The ship also includes a formidable air defense system that includes the RIM-7 Sea Sparrow Missile and RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) missiles, and Close-In Weapon System (CIWS) gun system. A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is the ultimate power projection weapon. 10 ships of the class have been produced, of which, we will include five of the Theodore Roosevelt sub-class: CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt CVN-72 Abraham Lincoln CVN-73 George Washington CVN-74 John C Stennis CVN-75 Harry S. Truman For the early access release, we will provide the Roosevelt, Lincoln, and Washington. Early access features of DCS: Supercarrier include: Highly detailed polygon model with high-resolution textures that include realistic weathering and markings. Animations that include arresting wires, jet blast deflectors (JBD), radar antennas, aircraft elevators, catapult bubble between catapults 1 and 2, steam from catapults, and risers (guard rails) around aircraft elevators when lowered. Detailed lighting systems that includes the long-range line-up lights, IFLOLS, Animated "rabbit lights" along landing area centerline, deck lighting, floodlights, and ship number on the island. Functional air defense weapon systems that include the Sea Sparrow, CIWS, and SeaRAM. Deck parking allowing up to 14 aircraft to be spawned on deck. Dynamic carrier radio communications for Case I, Case II, and Case III recoveries. Static deck vehicles (AS32A-31A Flight Deck Tractor, AS32A-32A Hangar Deck Tractor, AS32A-36 Aircraft crash and salvage crane, P-25 Fire Fighting Vehicle) that can be placed by mission designers. Animated deck crew for bow and waist catapults launches. Static deck crew that can be placed by mission designers. During the early access period, the following additional features will be added: Air Boss station. Briefing room. Occupy the Landing Signal Officer (LSO) station with PLAT camera, including VR support. More LSO station interactions. Combined Arms integration. "Burble" effect. Wave off and bolter return to pattern radio messages. Functional barricade net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joojoo Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 parking Spots and Purchase discount Hey to all I think you are as glad as I am due to the EA of the Supercarrier. Just two briefly questions. 1. ED does not clarify if there are more than existing 4 parking spots in the Supercarrier for singleplayer version 2. What must we do in order to merge the two discounts if we are already have the hornet? Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revelation Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) If you own the Hornet through ED shop the extra discount will be applied at checkout. You can also use “Miles” points to drop the price further. If you own the Hornet through Steam then you want to hold off a little bit based on Nineline’s post. There are more than four spots on the Supercarrier, there may be even more coming as ED does some more tests. I think I remember reading there were 12 and we may get up to 18.
