Irisz Posted July 15, 2024 Posted July 15, 2024 (edited) Good day everyone, here is my wish list! - DCS World Texture pack in which the user can choose whether to install textures in SD or HD resolution to the core of DCS World! (less storage space usage, less memory usage, less VRAM usage, MORE and satisfied users in DCS World) - DCS World's new default SD resolution skin system where every aircraft and ground unit has ONLY ONE skin! If the user chooses to install a full SD or HD skin pack, all skins in DCS World will be available! As long as the user does not install the skin pack, every aircraft and ground unit has only one SD skin with every new update, which does not cause problems even on online servers! - Before installation, the DCS World client should ask the user if he wants to install the terrain in SD or HD resolution! (the HD version should have a higher price, the SD version should have a lower price) - Wider selection of modern Redfor AI aircraft in DCS World! - All user-flyable aircraft use the most modern radar technology! - A more attractive free to play program for new players who can get FC products by simply playing! Collect points in some form and get the user-selectable FC product! - More FC products, the more the better! - Su-37 AI Aircraft or user-playable Su-37 FC product! (also good without TVC engine) - Completely reworked AI Aircraft behavior! - GFM! F-16 and Mirage 2000-5 fly like a weightless UFO! - More modern R-27T, R-27ET and R-73 missiles! Mayak-80M (MK-80M) appears to be a version modified for use on the R-27T/ET, which replaced the earlier 36T seeker at some point, rather than an upgraded seeker for the R-73. 1995-1996 Improved R-73M mentioned. R-73M1 and R-73M2 designations used by Janes (erroneously) for basic and improved R-73, with the latter having increased off-bore capability of +-60 deg. Trials said to have begun in 1994. - DCS World user can buy and fly a drone product with lots of weapons! (ED believe me, it makes a lot of money and you can have fun with it on online servers) - Any type of AI Wingman can be selected by a player (ask for a MiG-31 Wingman or whatever you want) can be activated from the menu in single player and online servers and only one wingman is possible!

Might be problematic with theme servers or certain missions using different skins. It also might be a immersion breaker in many situations. 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - All user-flyable aircraft use the most modern radar technology! Yes but I dont think this is easy to accomplish or economical for a company. 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - A more attractive free to play program for new players who can get FC products by simply playing! Collect points in some form and get the user-selectable FC product! Im against that idea. The two weeks trial system is already fantastic for people giving a sense what DCS is about and how it feels like. Also the devs need to get paid and you wont achieve that when you make FC products basically free. 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - More FC products, the more the better! - Su-37 AI Aircraft or user-playable Su-37 FC product! (also good without TVC engine) I'm against that too. Yes the lack of aircrafts is a problem but I dont like see DCS becoming more of a arcade game where high fidelity aircrafts are the exception. There are other sims already doing this. 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - Completely reworked AI Aircraft behavior! - GFM! F-16 and Mirage 2000-5 fly like a weightless UFO! This is already in the works 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - DCS World user can buy and fly a drone product with lots of weapons! (ED believe me, it makes a lot of money and you can have fun with it on online servers) Thats stupid. DCS shall not become a arcade game and reality is, flying slow drohnes for hours isnt fun especially when they dont carry much as in real life and get shot down with ease in any high end scenario. They dont even have RWR or countermeasures. 5 hours ago, Irisz said: - Any type of AI Wingman can be selected by a player (ask for a MiG-31 Wingman or whatever you want) can be activated from the menu in single player and online servers and only one wingman is possible! Thats already doable with scripts and the trigger system. 2 My skins

It also might be a immersion breaker in many situations. It doesn't cause a problem because if you don't install the pack, your own skin will be the 1 skin you use, if another user installs a different skin on his plane, he will see it. It is not possible to impose on the user what he does not want, and that the user has the right to manage the storage space of the SSD! Here, we could touch on the topic of how buying a lot of memory and SSD storage holds back the popularity of DCS world. Other games are successful because they can be played on a toaster, DCS World is not. DCS World can be started on a 10-year-old computer, but playing with a LOW texture preset is very difficult for the player. Many cockpit labels cannot be read with the LOW texture preset! 20 hours ago, Mike_Romeo said: Im against that idea. The two weeks trial system is already fantastic for people giving a sense what DCS is about and how it feels like. Also the devs need to get paid and you wont achieve that when you make FC products basically free. I have experience where a YouTuber with 1370 subscribers Youtube Link: Viper Zero helps more beginner players come to DCS World. These users are already faced with the fact that those who do not have 32GB of memory in their computer will suffer in the stable running of DCS World. I was the one who made tons of videos for beginner players to learn the basics and finally had to delete the videos because apart from buying products from the E shop, DCS World has no concept. There is a Growling Sidewinder server where you can play against Red VS Blue with 20-year-old Soviet technology against modern NATO equipment from the 2000s, which I would not go into detail about the swear words used by the users who came here from that other game. Where they can already have fun with modern MiG-29SMT and Su-27SM aircraft. I think it is important that ED makes money, but until you learn how to use the product you have purchased, the concept will not be attractive for their product and simulator. In single player, if a beginner player does not know how to edit missions and does not know how to use his own aircraft, he will not be able to create missions for himself. Unfortunately, my community is very toxic and anyone who is not a NATO fan is a very lonely wolf in my community. Simply having a fun game next to DCS World won't appeal. The fact is that in the other game you can achieve success with the time you invest, here in the DCS world, specifically pour your money into ED all the time and as I mentioned elsewhere, the game is based on multiplayer, and a new player comes over here and is a fan of a Soviet aircraft, then that's rough in other words, it is doomed because the whole DCS World is stuck on the Soviet side around 1990. I will write again that if the player goes somewhere else, it doesn't even cost him money to play and have fun with post-2000 Russian military equipment, here in DCS World he will never get what he wants. They buy the FC product and are forced to use NATO equipment even if they don't want to suffer with outdated Soviet equipment, and this is their problem because they like Soviet military equipment and not NATO equipment. After they buy an FC product, they are forced to buy NATO equipment if they don't want to play the game in extra hard mode. If they come to the forum, they are told that this is what you have to love. The end result is that if they don't get what they want, they uninstall DCS World and get rid of this problem. No one will return their money. With this free to play concept, those players will not develop the high level of indifference and hatred towards DCS World that develops due to this problem. Players who are dedicated fans of Russian and Soviet military technology are unfortunately doomed to suffer because they want to enjoy themselves in the on multiplayer servers, but unfortunately these new players can only be target drones. If you screw up the whole concept in the beginning to get the new player to like the DCS World simulator, it will be very hard to undo the damage. Since with this free to play concept they do not feel that their money has been wasted, this hatred and indifference towards the DCS world will not develop. By the way, these games have millions of dollars in revenue and DCS World does not. I believe that competition makes people innovate, and criticism moves the world forward. It's not good to walk around with your eyes closed and always let someone else decide what's good for you! 20 hours ago, Mike_Romeo said: I'm against that too. Yes the lack of aircrafts is a problem but I dont like see DCS becoming more of a arcade game where high fidelity aircrafts are the exception. There are other sims already doing this. I wrote about this above, where the Russian Soviet equipment was stuck in 1990 and there is no suitable counterpart for the aircraft. FA-18C - MiG-29K (We don't have MiG-29K AI yet) F-16CM - MiG-29SMT (We don't have MiG-29SMT AI yet) F-15E - Su-27SM or Su-27SM3 or Su-30MK or Su-35UB(We don't even have AI with these Russian aircraft types) F-14B - MiG-31 with a weakened R-33 missile (The range of the R-33S missile is similar to that of the AIM-54 missile, but until it gets close it is just a target drone. No MiG-31B with R-33S missiles. Nobody dares to dream about 31BM) Eurofighter Typhoon - Maybe it will bring a lot of money to the kitchen, but it will become depopulated on the multiplayer RedFor side, there is no 4.5 gen MiG-35 (By then we will no longer be alive when the MiG-35 appears, but it is also possible that there will be no DCS world) The MiG-29A has been here for 15 years in the FC2 and FC3 products, the fact that it will have a clickable cockpit will only be needed by dedicated fans. There are people who buy all ED products, but these are not real buyers, just supporters. It is easy to describe that a product is selling well if many people buy from the ED shop out of habit but do not use the product. I can see this because a lot of people in my community are bored in DCS World. They bought a lot of airplanes and don't know how to occupy themselves, and if a new product appears in the E shop, they will neglect their old airplane and deal with the new airplane. I have already written about the problem of buying an unknown product in the E shop and learning to use the simulator. If you master it, it loses its appeal because you will not be concerned with learning, but with the fact that there is nothing to do in the DCS world. AI is 20 years behind, it has an SFM flight model, if you can't come up with an interesting mission, it's all boring. And then comes the fact that there is a new product in the E shop and you will not be bored if you buy a new product and you can learn how to use it again and if you get to the point where you learn this too, then this new product will also be boring. Then you need a well-timed new product in the E shop and you can start all over again. Anyone who is not in this squirrel wheel is concerned with not being able to do anything in DCS World. After a while, Red vs Blue also becomes boring because you reach the upper limit of your knowledge. DCS World is interesting for NATO fans, boring for RedFor fans for years. The answer is disrespectful to go somewhere else, because for many people it is a pride and joy in their life that they can be here with ED and play DCS World. It is disrespectful to send these people away. The product must be made attractive, this is the common goal, not going in one direction! Or if you don't understand what I wrote " - GFM! F-16 and Mirage 2000-5 fly like a weightless UFO!" then you don't even play with Redfor aircraft in Single Player because these two types of aircraft are mentioned in quite a few forum posts because of the outdated SFM they fly like UFOs. That's why I'm only a multiplayer PVP player so that I don't have to deal with such problems that have been there for years. 20 hours ago, Mike_Romeo said: Thats stupid.

There is already a General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper drone mod and I think it brings joy to many people. The more military equipment a player can control, the more interesting the DCS World and the more opportunities for ED to earn money! Edited July 16, 2024 by Irisz 1
