Delberan Posted November 29, 2023 Posted November 29, 2023 Regarding modules, we need to remember Wags is replying on behalf of ED themselves. We could theoretically see a F-15C from Razban eventyally as they have already done alot of the work for the F-15E. And nothing is stopping a third party developer making a bomber or Tanker. We already have ASC making the C-130J which will be the first flyable transport. 1

An F-4 variant? I think people might feel a bit cheated. I'd personally go for an F-103, F-107, or F-109... but I don't think any of them could be modelled to DCS standards (even if the F-107 reached flight capable hardware - sort-of anyway, and the F-109 had a technology demonstrator built by the Germans). 2

Been asked and answered a few times since "whole world (spherical)" map was floated. Existing maps CAN NOT be integrated into the new spherical map because they are designed for a FLAT projection. To get those maps back would require starting virtually from square one rebuilding them. The idea of the spherical map is that you theoretically could have the whole world without things getting badly warped/twisted at the edges if you get too big. It's still very much early stages so I don't imagine even ED can give a good answer to how it will all work. Edited November 29, 2023 by rob10 1

Silver_Dragon Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 6 hours ago, Buzz313th said: On the topic regarding the "Spherical World Map"... Lets face it, for a company to continue any sort of substantial development within an acceptable timeline, requires monetary incentive. It appears to me, that one of the issues with a product such as DCS where almost all of the revenue is based on a one time purchase per module per user and then done. And considering how Niche DCS is as a product. Reaching a saturation level for revenue probably happens pretty quickly, which would explain the need for DCS to continue churning out purchasable content to survive. The potential of something like a "Spherical World Map" Or a "Streaming Dynamic World" where users can fly anywhere and dynamically engage in hotspots that are supplied by private certified server operators, could be a good product model to justify a subscription service. Users would pay a small monthly fee to subscribe to "The DCS Dynamic World" and then ED would have the guaranteed monthly income to both support the "Dynamic World" but also to aggressively pursue content development... Just throwing this out there.. ED has very clear, dont go to change to a subcription system, and actualy the quantity of ED and 3rd parties (surely comming more) modules on develop has very impersive. I dont see problems on "incomes" by ED.

My comment was more about the concept, than the subscription, but most people zeroed in on having to pay money instead of the idea concept. But I get it, most people really don't want to part with their money, but they have no problem asking developers... To work harder and faster... You get to choose two outa three.. Fast..
