Laser9 Posted Saturday at 02:23 AM Posted Saturday at 02:23 AM I think it would be cool to have the ability to add friends in the DCS client. You would be able to see what multiplayer server your friend is currently in. It would also be nice if there were a way to make some sort of squadron or community within the DCS client, so that you could see what server all the members of the squadron are currently in.

I think the entire on-line experience in DCS exhibits a decidedly mySpace-esque mid 1990's vibe that is unbecoming to a vaguely modern game. Not only would it be good to see friends if/when they are online, join their missions when they host, and chat with them directly. ED are sitting on a treasure trove of missions in their User Files, the place where contributors upload their missions. I believe DCS's experience could be made so much better if ED integrated that into DCS, allow players to discover missions for their planes and directly download (and update once downloaded) them. And ED should (IMHO) go one step further and integrate upload to User Files into mission editor. As it is right now, DCS's online UX is one of things that I try to skip when I rave about the game. IMHO, it's an embarrassment.
