Hmm... you do realise what this will create.

If we have cow slingloading... people will be asking for elephants to be modelled in the game next. 😄

 

Edit: My only question - do we even have 10K active members on this forum? Nineline may have sent you on a wild goose chase. 😉

 

I asked him yesterday if he can lower it to 1K

yes of course developer time should be spent on slinging cows. nothing else could possibly be higher on the "do this first" list.

No one said this has to be done first.

if I want to be rude I would say "your age"
I get the meme, I know it's somewhat funny - but how many times you put/interact/see cows on servers/missions
there are tons of more important stuff
 

it would be useful on SAR server

Joking aside, this would open the doors to a lot more logistics operations where we can slingload statics/units as well. Not only do I desperately want to slingload cows, I also want to slingload humvees and whatnot. Although when it comes to slingloading things, cattle obviously has a priority.

Sling loading cows is just lame - if used in asymmetric warfare, a dozen of very slim locals will cling onto the cow and EAT IT! Not only will the attack be ineffective, it's gonna be counterproductive. Useless, lame, no!
The proper way for cow combat employment was established long ago by the French, in England (a century before the Norman Conquest, it's a complicated story)... apparently together with film making, so we have a video footage from around AD 962. Young folks may not know it, so I provided the link below. Hence a reasonable poll should ask: "Can we have a catapult unit in Combined Arms?". Someone has to come up with some "pipper depression" tables for cows, though.

I think that the Cow needs flying goggles, leather helmet and a silk scarf.

Edit: I am looking at the post by Kinkkujuustovoileipä, and the theme music is ride of the Valkyries.

Just imagine a whole squadron of Helicopters with Cows popping over a hill flying at you with the music.  I bet the mission builder guys cant wait.

OK, we can take the cow sling further.  We can use the cows' urine to create urea.  The urea can be spread on the flight lines, taxiways, and runways when they are covered in snow and ice.  Urea is not corrosive to the aircraft.  When ED (or the designated 3rd party vendor) has time, then they can create a new mod to make money.  Specifically, they create urea spreaders, along with snow removal equipment, on the flight line.

You know what. If this would help DCS out - I'd be willing to spend $5 for a DCS Cow Slinging mod. Could be a nice fun way to raise a little bit of capital for further development to the base engine. (Many may not - I dunno if it's a good idea or not - just sayin it's a possibility if it would help). If simple little mods like this coudl be a fun revenue raiser for DCS to help finance further development such as VR performance increases, etc.

Sling loading is already implemented though, we just need the same parameters for cows. Lighten up a bit there fella!

I want dairy cows that squirt milk when they moo while slingloaded. The udders better be aimable so I can deliver relief from brittle bone syndrome.
