An idea for a DCS campaign creators...

[ghostskills82]

After going through the training tutorials multiple times, I'm currently studying the Chinook manual to understand the available systems. That's when this idea came to me...

A training campaign for the Chinook, similar to "Iron Flag" for the A-10C, would be desirable. For example, a scenario where a Huey pilot transitions to the Chinook, just out of basic training, and is then trained at Nellis AFB for deployment in Afghanistan... Just a suggestion

Excellent idea! While it might need to wait for more systems to be implemented.

1000%! I think Baltic Dragon has his hands full with a myriad of projects already, but it's definitely something that would be totally amazing.

Of course. It only makes sense once the module has been significantly further developed; otherwise, the whole thing doesn't make much sense - you're absolutely right.

Although I wholeheartedly agree that such a campaign would be really cool, from commercial perspective this wouldn't be smart (or even feasible). As in your example such a campaign would require players to own the Huey, NTTR map, Chinook and Afghanistan.

This would substantially reduce the amount of purchases.

 

But yes, it would be awesome

I understood this a bit differently. The transition from Huey to Chinook sounds like just the backstory and wouldn't mean the player actually has to fly the Huey (though it would actually pretty cool to have such mixed campaigns).

And going to Afghanistan could be a second, but separate campaign.

At least that's what Baltic Dragon is aiming for with Iron Flag. And players who play several of his campaigns might recognize characters appearing in more than one campaign.

Ah ok, yes, that would work

Perhaps I misunderstood the OP

Absolutly. Of course players just need to own the Chinook & Nevada. It´s meant like in 'Iron Flag'. It´s just part of the story that the player transitions from something else to the Chinnok, but the 'something else' won´t be flown in this campaign. In 'Iron Flag' for example, the player used to fly the A-10A in the past, but gets trained and deepdived in the A-10C for future deployments. Actually it´s just a A-10C campaign. Sorry for confusing
