The Campaign

[GGTharos]

You're right, relative to the F-15. The F-16's preference otherwise is high-speed cornering. Like an F-15! Wow!

But it definitely likes to be low, regardless of whom its fighting. IIRC.

 

The F-16 likes the slow fight? I'm taking it that you're comparing this relative to the F-15C? If Falcon's FM is believable (isn't it based on real EM charts?) under 300 knots you start to really lose turn capability and under 200 you're a wallowing pig, porked and ready to be eaten. Corner speed is given as 440 knots in the manual. I've always been suspicious of this lack of control at low speeds, however.

*Sigh*

 

And Lockon players AND F4AF players are both chomping at the bit to have that monstrosity modeled in a sim. :huh:

 

I wouldn't have such a problem with the regular F-18, but I have mixed feelings on naval aviation. Carrier landings done correctly would be challenging, but I'm more of a land-based warfare guy.

 

FSX: Acceleration offers the experience of carrier landings with an F/A-18.

 

It is challenging, but it's also good fun. You can't fight with it, but some of the missions in FSX and Acceleration are so much fun they almost make you forget that . . .

 

Having said that, I'm convinced there's at least one Hornet mission you simply can't complete on realistic settings. Hmmn.

DSC has dinamic campaing Falcon style or old premade fixed mission style Lomac?

Here's what has already been said about the campaign:

We'll provide more detailed descriptions of both the campaign system and mission editor when their features are finalized enough to be described accurately. We're getting there.

posted by Wags "In later iterations of DCS, we’ll add other functions to the campaign system.

 

I’ll probably devote a producer note to this and the mission editor later."

 

 

Sweet, just what I wanted to here. :thumbup:

 

 

"It is essentially a phased system that the player can go back and fourth between phases based on mission results."

 

So it is like the Longbow 2 campain in a way. I very much enjoyed the way that one was set up. Just no Mission buildder in the LB2. I hate to compair a 10year old sim to BS but people are still tring to buy it and play it. I know that BS shuld finish off the last of the hold outs on it. Mabe I shuld sell my copy befor BS comes out.
