Hello.

 

Would it be possible to play multiplayer cooperative as a pilot-copilot configuration in AH64-D model ? I hope so, otherwise you guys killed another good sim...:(

What other sim did they kill? :noexpression:

They killed my Lockheed Kitten-35 sim. It was purrty :P

From the FAQ:

 

:smilewink: Not the Longbow but still great...

 

Why not the Longbow? If you want a proper Study Sim it has to be the longbow no?

It would be nice to have a decent complex Radar system to operate in a chopper.

And to kill the sim, they first have to make it... :huh:

Hello uksub, a "proper study sim" needs proper data. So as soon as you can provide classified AH-64D data they will be more than glad to offer you a proper AH-64D study sim. As long as they dont have the accurate data we will have to fly the AH-64 which will be awesome too ;)

AH-64 Coop....

 

Mi-24 with dual cockpit in the future? It would be great! Nowadays' Mi-24D/Vs would be quite interesting in DCS. Track the target manually in the Raduga or with the KPS-53 gun sight... Crew's cooperation with the 1-2 secs delay of TeamSpeak... Handling the so-called "built-in" GPS Pilot III... or the DISS-15D... Mmmmm! After the digital wonders of Su-25T, A-10 and Ka-50...That would be VEEEERY nice.

THX!

E.D.'s said that they will attempt to integrate voice comms into the sim (with terrain blocking etc) in a future module - the AH-64 with dual cockpit co-op would be a good place to start (though so would the A-10 module, allowing retrofitting to the Ka-50 ..)

Cheers.

I think I asked something like uksub wrote a few weeks back, but when I sobered up I knew it wasn't possible. The great thing about Black Shark is the level of detail and realism in the systems and controls that the DCS lads are putting into it. That could never be reproduced for the AH64D because (like Groove pointed out originally) of it's classified nature. I would rather fly something that is as close to the real thing, then "we think the system, weapons, radar might do something like this?".

 

Just the thought of having the AH 64A Apache (to be released 9 months after Black Shark) to the current level of the Ka 50 makes me count the remaining months.

People will just use Team Speak instead. I don't want to loose comms just because I am behind the hill.

 

However, it would be nice to have comms with different channels for different purpose (approach, combat packages, ground markers ...).

It might cut out when their is a hill in the way, but it would be instant, which has advantages.

 

PS - do people think that by constantly saying the AH-64 will be next and not the A-10, they can make this come true, or are they just not reading what ED says and creating a self perpetuating rumour ?

 

From the thread "New Interview with Jim Mackonochie from Simware 08"

My mistake in the interview, it was a bit busy at the show! Next aircraft is planned to be A-10, not Apache.

Cheers.

IMO, it makes more sense to release the Apache first as it would pair up the two choppers an make room for fixed-wing jets. This is probably why most people thing this way, because it is the option that makes logical sense. Now, there's obviously something that ED knows that makes the A-10 work better, and I'm fine with that becaue I personally like the A-10 a lot and can't wait to get my paws on it.

Simple guess?

 

Modelling the A-10 first gives them more time to work on the dual-control code. That's going to an interesting challenge . . .

Or they ar already working on somthing for real pilots to train with and it just happens to be the A-10.

Actually, more simple than that: the A-10A is simply much further along in development due to number of factors over the past year.

To due a true study sim they need all the info on each. I am sure that their is sone classified info on each to prevent a true representation of each. Thats just my 2 cents.

At some levels I agree with you, but there are a couple of things that probably make the A-10 more sense.

 

1/ The A-10 doesn't need any new technology - they have the AFM developed from FC, the system modelling developed from BS, WAFM for A2G & ballistics from BS. No 2 person online co-op/Dual control code needed etc.

2/ It gets a fixed wing air craft into the DCS lineup ASAP to catch all those who have no interest in a hellicopter sim (drag more of the LOFC crew across).

3/ It gets something from the US into the DCS lineup ASAP, to catch those who have no interest in flying anything not made in the USA (drag more of the LOFC crew across).

4/

Or they (have) already (been) working on somthing for real pilots to train with and it just happens to be the A-10.

Fair play. Cant blame a guy for wishing can you?

Looking forward to the AH-64 anyway.
