Nomatic Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Happy to hear about Afghanistan and the long awaited F-15E… Video looked pretty, but it honestly means nothing without performance improvements. I didn’t see a single thing on the vid or in the email about performance improvement implementation. Multi-core, nothing. Vulkan, nothing. Further VR integration, nothing. I take it those are in 2023? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 1 If speed is death…, buy a Honda and live forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Am I the only one who doesn't care about another mostly deserted map coming to DCS World? Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the maps we already have in the game, especially Syria, and the mountains in Afghanistan are probably going to be very beautiful from the air, but I for one would much rather see the Balkans (Former Yugoslavia) or something similar, something with very diverse topology and climate, and a bit sea as well. 14 Specs: Win10, i5-13600KF, 32GB DDR4 RAM 3200XMP, 1 TB M2 NVMe SSD, KFA2 RTX3090, VR G2 Headset, Warthog Throttle+Saitek Pedals+MSFFB2 Joystick.

To point 1: It is frustrating to watch them continue to walk the path previously trodden by the Hornet/Viper debacle in 2017/18 (zero lessons learned it seems). They are continuing to add projects to an already overflowing plate that is now at such an unsustainable rate that their previous year's teaser aircraft has not even been released into EA before the next aircraft is announced (and taking already maxed resources away from any project completion). To Point 2: The A-10C II has been relegated in the same fashion that the Hornet, Viper, and Super Carrier have been in the past (there are currently zero devs working on it). It was released effectively 90% done due to being a derivation of the original A-10C and has yet to be completed. This speaks to the overall frustration of projects being started but never completed. Simply put, their current way of doing things is exponentially unsustainable (especially if they are going to continue to pursue modern aircraft like the F-16 which are insanely complicated). They would be far better served completing what they have and shifting their focus to Gen 3 (Vietnam to Cold War) frames that should in theory be easier to complete as they do not have all of the gizmos and gadgetry of Gen 4 fighters. Coupling this with desert fatigue, the logical decision would be to go to Korea or Vietnam. With the teasing of the F-4, I'm hoping this is their future plans but we'll have to see I guess.

Furiz Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I'm wondering, since ED said they are not making F4 or a transport aircraft (the coordinates point to C-130), why are those aircraft teased in beyond video, isn't that video ending supposed to be announcing ED projects? Who is making those aircraft in the end then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
