Weasel Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Is there a release date yet?No, there is still no release date. But it seems a release is not far away
Raven68 Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 No, there is still no release date. But it seems a release is not far away It would be nice if they were to sneak the release on us before Christmas. I wonder the reason no date is given now is due to the community flak if they miss the date so instead of announcing it now they could announce the release the same day of the announcement. :music_whistling::pilotfly: Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6(Assume the latest driver version) Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 10 Professional Oculus Rift-S /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals

Gruman Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I do hope we get a new S-3 rather sooner than later. This old model will stand out way to much on the nice new carriers :D. Was probably already asked and answered before... but... If somebody won't /can't buy the carrier, will he still be able to fly on the same server? What can he use as a NOT-Owner? No landing permission? Bolter Calls and no successfull wire catch? :lol: Don't get me wrong. Instant buy for me, no question asked. But my wing had a couple of Viper lovers which were really in a hurry to never have to land the hornet ever again on a carrier... Those will not really be interested in buying a new carrier. But we still like to fly with them on the same server... :joystick: Intel I9 10900k @5.1GHz | MSI MEG Z490 Unify | Corsair Vengeance 64GB - 3600MHz | EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 VPC T-50 Base /w Viper & Hornet Grip | VPC Rotor TCS Pro w/ Hawk-60 Grip | TM TPR LG C2 42" | Reverb G2 | TIR 5 | PointCtrl | OpenKneeboard

twistking Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Wires and catapults will be inoperable if you don't own it, iirc. a fair way would also be, if the carrier would just reject your radio requests. since carrier coms is a major selling point, this alone would take a big chunck of utility away from non-paying players without really breaking the immersion... My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
Airhunter Posted December 11, 2019 Author Posted December 11, 2019 Wires and catapults will be inoperable if you don't own it, iirc. No problem.

Raisuli Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 :doh: Just wrong in so many ways. Can we get a realistic Air Boss modeled? I want to hear the ensuing conversation, one-sided though it may be. I have to assume the new model, with functioning CIWS, RAM, and Sparrow wouldn't have this problem... :joystick::megalol:

pimp Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 It's very interesting that ~98% of these questions and new threads are not being answered.

Havremonster Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Will we be able to land helicopters on the new supercarrier?
Koriel Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Will we be able to land helicopters on the new supercarrier? Lemme go on a limb here and guess yes...

pimp Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Or there is still one more pleasant surprise package in the offing. Nah I highly doubt it. They've done a lot as far as end-of-year updates so don't get me wrong, I am grateful, but this module is such a mystery and the mystery is killing me. i9 14900k @5.6GHz NZXT Kraken |Asus ROG Strix Z790 A-Gaming | Samsung NVMe m.2 990 Pro 2TB | 64GB DDR5 6400MHz EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra | PiMAX CRYSTAL LIGHT | HOTAS Warthog | Saitek Flight Pedals
Eaglewings Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 but this module is such a mystery and the mystery is killing me. Yeah I get the feeling. From the little we have been allowed to know about the dcs supercarrier, It has never been so represented in the sim world like this. My anticipation is strong. The money to buy this is conveniently and safely tucked away.

-0303- Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 ;) It's not possible for something to be "(…) mostly non-existent in reality" Things either exist - or they don't... Things can be common or rare, but to be either of those things they have to actually exist. The single instance of a Russian carrier that exists in reality is in the game. When it's working, it exists. The Kuznetsov upgrade could include the two tug boats constantly accompanying it, for when it breaks down (= not exist).;) Intel Core i7 3630QM @ 2.40GHz (Max Turbo Frequency 3.40 GHz) | 16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz | 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 635M | 447GB KINGSTON SA400S37480G (SATA-2 (SSD))
-0303- Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Push Back on deck is literally push back, like, by hands... I always thought they would use a tractor... Will this be part of the animated deck crew / DCS Supercarrier? Whenever you taxied to edge of deck or too close to tower, asking deck crew for a push back, yes please. Dozens of deck , pushing them to lineup and in hangar (I know full P-47 wasn't carrier planes, but idea is the same). In Wag's AMA, he mentioned we will be able to walk to the jet. Both of these, walking and push back. If they can be done on the carrier, it would be a little silly to not be able to do that on land. On land you could be towed out of snow or pushed back if facing a building. Is this a crane for clearing fouled decks? Lifting airplanes? Doesn't seem big enough, maybe it just moves ordnance.
