cfrag Posted January 18 Posted January 18 (edited) Although I believe that the CA module leaves a lot to be desired (I find the UX abysmal, VR is broken, physics are laughable), I'm hoping that eventually, CA evolves into something better than a module that constantly evokes the likeness of a sullen temp who finishes their job unwillingly. One of the issues that I've run into is that I can't find an up to date reference on which units currently can be player-controlled. Since just bitching about this is too easy, here's the result of some hours of work trying to put together a list of units that can be controlled by the player through CA. If you find a unit that is missing from this list, please be so kind and comment here so I can add it to the list. My hope is that we can put together a complete list of CA units for everyone to use as a reference. CA player-controlled vehicles: AAA Bofors 40mm AAA Flak 38 AAA Flak Vierling 38 AAA M1 37mm AAA M45 Quadmount HB AAA ZU-23 Emplacement Closed AAA ZU-23 Emplacement AAA Zu-23 Emplacement Insurgent Closed AAA Zu-23 Emplacement Insurgent Ammo M30 Cargo Carrier APC AAV-7 APC BTR-80 APC BTR-RD APC M-113 APC M2A1 Halftrack APC MTLB APC Sd.Kfz.251 Halftrack APC TPz Fuchs ATGM HMMWV ATGM Stryker ATGM VAB Mephisto Bunker with Fire Control Car Daimerl Armored Car Willys Jeep Fire Fighter Vehicle AA Grad MRL FDDM HQ-7 LN (Player) IFV BMD-1 IFV BMP-1 IFV BMP-2 IFV BMP-3 IFV BTR-82A IFV LAV-25 IFV M1126 Stryker IFV M2A2 Bradley IFV Marder IFV Warrior LUV HMMWV Jeep LUV Horch 901 LUV Kettenrad LUV Kubelwagen Jeep LUV Land Rover LUV Tigr LUV UAZ Jeep M92 B600 drivable M92 Mj-1 drivable M92 P20 drivable M92 R11 Volvo drivable M92 Tug Harlan drivable MANPADS SA-18 Igla Grouse MANPADS SA-18 Igla-S Grouse MANPADS Stinger MBT Chieftain MBT Leclerc MBT Leopard 1A3 MBT Leopard-2A4 MBT Leopard 2A4Trs MBT Leopard 2A5 MBT Leopard 2A6M MBT M1A2 Abrams MBT M60A3 Patton MBT Merkava IV MBT T-55 MBT-T-72B MBT-T-80U MBT-T-90 MLRS 9A52 Smerch CM MLRS 9A52 Smerch HE MLRS 9K57 Uragan MLRS BM-21 Grad MLRS FDDM MLRS HL MLRS LC MLRS M270 MT Tyoe 59 PLZ 05 Refueler ATZ-5 Refueler ATZ-60 Tractor Refueler TZ-22 Tractor S-75 Tractor SAM Avenger (Stinger) SAM Chaparral SAM Linebacker SAM Roland ADS SAM SA-8 Osa Gecko SAM SA 9 Strela Gaskin SAM SA 13 Strela Gopher SAM SA 15 Tor Gauntlet SAM SA 19 Tunguska Grison Scout BRDM-2 Scout Cobra Scout HL with DSHK Scout HL with KORD Scout HMMWV Scout LC with DSHK Scout LC with KORD Scout M8 Greyhound Scout Puma SL Flakscheinwerfer (?)

Roy35150 Posted January 19 Posted January 19 Wow, That is quite a list, Will follow this and thx for the time you put in. 1
charts100 Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Wow, I'd no idea it was that many! You'd think with this much interaction it would get more attention to making it work properly. Thanks for doing the list.
twistking Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Wouldn't it be better to cut that list down to a few units per coalition, type and era and focus on making those fewer units a "good" experience with unique characteristics? Quality over quantity etc. ... My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
Mr_sukebe Posted February 9 Posted February 9 It’s a tricky question. If ED had unlimited funds and devs, I’d love to have a better CA experience. However, there are always other priorities, so I’m OK that it’s well down the list. Strikes me that it’s another example of where a 3rd party would be great to have dealing with this, particularly so when you see the effort being put into some other tank sims at the moment. 1 7800x3d, 5080, 64GB, PCIE5 SSD - Oculus Pro - Moza (AB9), Virpil (Alpha, CM3, CM1 and CM2), WW (TOP and CP), TM (MFDs, Pendular Rudder), Tek Creations (F18 panel), Total Controls (Apache MFD), Jetseat
