Thanks for posting urze.

All my dreams come reallity, infantery in DCS:BS.... :thumbup:

[VMFA117_Poko]

Great vid! Thanks. There is big probability we'll see infantry. It does also mean there is a small propability we won't see them. Why? There is or might be a bugs with troops?

[Vekkinho]

Middle of '08?!

 

You heard the man!

[Glowing_Amraam]

:D

[Toady]

Sod flying.

I wanna play infantry. ;)

 

Anyone remember Wargasm when it was cutting edge (but not quite)? :doh:

[mvsgas]

Thanks Urze

Yeah, it would be fun to start your own virtual holy war in the mountains, you'll recruit some brave warriors, arm them with rudimentary ak-47s, rpg-7s and Strela-2 missiles. When you shoot something down, or ambush those pesky governmental vehicles, you gwt better weapons, like DsHKMs, maybe a Zsu-23-2 and Iglas. After that, you'll have a force the opressors will to take into acount every time they decide of a nice flight over the region. No damn Ka-50 can beat a 3 point ambush, by the time the pilot knows what's happening at least 3 brave missiles would have hit it. Then you can capture the pilot and exchange him for more weapons. DCS: Mujahideen will feature all those features, and you'll be able to create your own idiotology to convert more followers in your online struggle for freedom, while experienced Ka-50 and Apache mercenary pilots would try to hunt you down in the mountains. Version 1.2 will feature new weapons and units, like women, foreign warriors, suicide bombers and a special comfy, modular Semtex belt system, allowing it to be carried by your smallest and thinnest, and thickest and tallest warrior of your predetermined faith.

SEM-BELT-2000© will even allow to engage helicopters (only once) up to an altitude of 40 m, this due to the specialy designed fragmentation effect hat, with kevlar on the back side :P

 

^ I need a good operation flashpoint/Armed Assault campaign. :/

good interview, thanks Jim!

My English is very bad, but I have found it that said that the simulator would translate into several languages including Spanish (min 2:05). Is that true?

Excerpt from Clip:

 

".......we then have to translate the Software from English into French, German and Spanish......"

 

So yes - Quite True if one has regard to the Info provided by the interview.

[Triggerhappy69]

Aaaargh..! It's like standing outside a candystore without a penny..!

 

But It'll be worth they wait.. I'm sure..!

[leafer]

So they're finishing up the ME. I'm guessing the next developer's notes will be about the it?

[phant]

Not italian translation...it's so bad our market? :cry:

 

Bye

Phant

[4c Hajduk Veljko]

No Serbian translation either. Nevertheless, I am buying it AS SOON AS it hits the shelves!

[Ditch3r]

Thanks!! Good info here :thumbup:

Yeah... It's hard to make a better metaphore.

 

Hey, and that was Mr Jim whose voice is in the first "startup procedure" clip.

[thereminqblank]

Q: Your press release indicates that Black Shark is the first in a series of DCS modules, with more aircraft/helicopters to follow. How soon will these new aircraft become available?

A: We are already developing the A-10A “Warthog" and AH-64A “Apache” (with planned front-seat / back-seat multiplayer) and other western and eastern aircraft will follow with an approximate interval of every nine months. To annouce these later aircraft now would be premature because plans can often change and lead to delays due to numerous factors such as our work in the equally important military simulation market.

I guess they are makig translation into German, French and Spanish as there are numerious countries speaking each of the languages (alright, German not so many but still more then one) where as Italian is spoken only in Italy and Serbian only in Serbia :)

[JimMack]

Nice interview and very good news, thx alot!! Anyone noticed that he mentioned that the Apache will be next and not the A-10, while it has been announced in the past that the A-10 will be the next add-on?

 

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

[arneh]

Italian is spoken only in Italy

 

Ey, Italian is official language of Switzerland as well! :P (Well one of the four offical languages :) )

[cool_t]

:thumbup:

[Weta43]

Next aircraft is planned to be A-10, not Apache.

 

then the Apache

 

and then what ?

[Kuky]

Yeah true Arneh, Italian is spoken in part of Switzerland as well, that's allong with German and French, right?
