ebabil Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 I think it is the best looking carrier in the game. But I have really got used to SC crew feature. So Forrestal SC would be a great combo! 16 FC3 | UH-1 | Mi-8 | A-10C II | F/A-18 | Ka-50 III | F-14 | F-16 | AH-64 | Mi-24 | F-5 | F-15E| F-4| Tornado Persian Gulf | Nevada | Syria | NS-430 | Supercarrier // Wishlist: CH-53 | UH-60 Youtube MS FFB2 - TM Warthog - CH Pro Pedals - Trackir 5

Danny_P Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Not that this is going to happen, but I think the deck crew should just be a core feature. With the other things like the lso, ready room and more advance catc to be behind the paywall. I own the SC, I have no regrets buying it at all. But I do think some of the thing included in it, should just be core to dcs, for all to use. But like I said, that most likely wont happen. Edited October 22, 2021 by Danny_P typo 2
Oceandar Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Agreed Forrestal looks absolutely amazing, but I've gotten so used to the eye candy deck crew, I can't do without em anymore..This! So please ED and HB.... make it happen. 3 Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power. - Lao Tze
AbuMuqawama Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 I would love it if it was so. I don't think I'd use any other flattop than the Forrestal. 2

PLUTON Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 It would be nice if they merge to bring the same deck crew on the forrestal but it is no use asking them because their commercial interest is clearly more important than we who support them.

Love these reverse psychology attempts Ofc their commercial interest is more important, you think they get money from trees? Anyway, would be great to have it as SC, but it would probably be charged for. Something that should have been part of the core game, the crew and ATC... 1
Tank50us Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Did no one read HBs take on this? They plan to add Forrestals sisters and they *will* have SCM features
Dragon1-1 Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Yeah, we simply got the non-SC first, because SC features will take time to add. Not to mention, SC itself isn't complete, and there are big additions to the deck crew in the works right now. It simply makes no sense to add the SC feature set to anything else until that feature set is finalized.
PLUTON Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Seen like this yes you are right that they terminate the bridge crew, but that they include this crew in the forrestal. On the other hand, I would find it normal that this addition should pay off because all work deserves a salary. But that does not prevent me from saying a big THANK YOU to ED for their work.
Jsood Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 If you own the supercarrier those features should be vissible on all other carriers. 4

Jsood Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 I did'nt clarify that is was a suggestion on a future solution.
kseremak Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) Yes, it looks great. If buying Supercarrier module would upgrade Forrestal as well, Supercarrier module would have even more value. Win-win. Edited October 30, 2021 by kseremak 2
bies Posted November 2, 2021 Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) It would be beneficial for both ED and customers to implement Supercarrier features to the Forrestal. Basic Forrestal is free for everyone, just like i.e. basic Stennis. Purchasing Supercarrier customer would receive feature upgrade for two carrier classes instead of one. Edited November 2, 2021 by bies 2
joey45 Posted November 3, 2021 Posted November 3, 2021 Maybe the other carriers (IF they are being made) will be the SC versions. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Furiz Posted November 3, 2021 Posted November 3, 2021 10 minutes ago, Golo said: Agreed, this really needs to happen. Well from the economical point of view, it doesn't. Cause if they put the SC animated crew behind a paywall, they should then charge for the Forrestal crew as well. But if they don't charge for Forrestal crew, then the SC crew should be free... But ED didn't make Forrestal, Heatblur did.
ebabil Posted November 5, 2021 Author Posted November 5, 2021 no, they can make 2 versions of it so that SC owners can benefit from it. Also this makes SC more appealing 1 FC3 | UH-1 | Mi-8 | A-10C II | F/A-18 | Ka-50 III | F-14 | F-16 | AH-64 | Mi-24 | F-5 | F-15E| F-4| Tornado Persian Gulf | Nevada | Syria | NS-430 | Supercarrier // Wishlist: CH-53 | UH-60 Youtube MS FFB2 - TM Warthog - CH Pro Pedals - Trackir 5
draconus Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 Yep, best solution is to implement the SC features into all carriers as an option. If you own SC you'll have the animated crew, comms and whatnot on every carrier. If not - you'll have the basic carrier interaction. 1 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria

However I think that the Cat crew should be available regardless as their whole job is to get you lined up and hooked up. But that's just me.
Silver_Dragon Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) The Forrestal and Tarawa has 3rd party working, part of some 3rd party directories (Forrestal - F-14 / Tarawa - AV-8B) and require Heatblur and RAZBAM update your ships with Supercarrier API, no ED. ED has working on complete the SC features to implement into the API. About them, remember Trello Heatblur roadmap: https://trello.com/b/HsMiJggJ/heatblur-public-roadmap Quote We will be introducing a free carrier to DCS World - the CV-59 Forrestal. The Forrestal class will form a core part of the content package developed together with the F-14 Tomcat. The Forrestal will ship with the baseline standard of DCS Aircraft carrier features. Future versions may include supercarrier features. RAZBAM dont talk yet anything to supercarrier API on Tarawa.
