It was mentioned in another post that ED are looking at including a dedicated server option in 1.1

 

Is there any more info available on this and I thought it would also be a good idea to hear some ideas from the sort of features we would like in dedicated server tools. ie auto map rotation etc.

 

IMHO getting dedicated server tools would be the biggest improvement to this game yet .... it would open up so many more possiblities for online play. We will see people hosting servers who would otherwise have not hosted before, the servers will possibly be more powerful with larger connections making for some awesome games!

 

Thanks in advance.

Not for 1.1. AFTER 1.1.

My enjoyment of Lock-on went up when I finally let go of my dreams for 2 particular things to be added into Lomac:

 

1. Dynamic Campaign

 

2. Dedicated Server

 

 

Face it everyone, ED has neither the interest, nor the desire, nor the knowledge (this is a guess) of how to do either of these things. If we just sit by like sheep and realize we will NEVER get these things, the sim becomes slightly more enjoyable (this same mentality is often used with politics as well LOL).

 

:cry:

Yes.. they only have desire, interest and knowledge to make THE best publicly available simulation of anything ever.

 

Shame on them!

Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.

Don't get me wrong, ED makes a great sim. Their areas in need of MUCH improvement are:

 

--User-friendly GUI's and other various aspects of the menu

--Mission editor (implementation and abilitites)

--AI

--Comms

--DC/DS (obviously)

--Audio

 

They are without a doubt beyond talented in the following areas:

 

--Flight models

--Graphics

--Attention to detail

--Avionics (improved a bit with FC, and MUCH more so with BS)

--Network code

Guys, I don't think ED will look into dedicated server unti they create a new graphics engine, as a dedi server requires separation between graphics and game engine ... so it is probably not worth their time to do for BS.
