thedisturbingspaniard Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 If Caucasus / Georgia map is ever updated, including the main (and almost only) Georgian air force base at Marneuli would make it more serious. As, in, where are we supposed to operate Georgian aircraft from??? 3
SGT Toffee Posted April 9, 2023 Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) Additionally, they should look into the Mouth to the Maramara Sea because it’s completely blocked off with lack of rough terrain to the east of Istanbul. I’m sure you can take the map and take some of the textures to convert them into water bodies to make the river, but then one would have to scale large cities in the region. I like the map as it is right now, but it looks unfinished. Can’t wait to see what new large updates will come! Edited April 9, 2023 by SGT Toffee 2
SilentSparrow Posted April 29, 2023 Posted April 29, 2023 Caucasus is called ********* by Enigma for a good reason. This is because the Caucasus map was never like how it is. This is because the bottom left of it should have water (Not Land) as well as Istanbul. So expanding Caucasus to Turkey (At Least) would be a must-do for DCS. 3

Dragon1-1 Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 We'd need Stukas, Yaks and a whole lot of others. Eastern Front would be nice one day, but I suspect it'll be a while. DCS is rather US-centric, Brits are getting a little love in WWII, but so far everything that doesn't involve US forces in a big way had been done by 3rd parties. Soviets did use quite a few US-made aircraft, such as the P-39, P-40 and even some Spits and T-bolts (albeit reluctantly, neither was particularly suitable for what VVS needed them for), but not the variants we have. 2
Red_Pilot Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) I think that unfortunately it is not possible to have as many maps as there were interesting battles. But it would be useful to have an option to disable all buildings on the map or trees. Then it would be possible to use modern maps for any historical time. For example, we now have maps that could help to (alternatively) recreate the events in the fjords of Norway, the events around the Northern Convoys (PQ-17?), the battles of the aviation of the Northern Fleet of the USSR. Maps of Sinai and Syria could also be interesting? Perhaps using part of the Normandy map, you can imagine an air battle in Spain But in general, this is not possible now. I would be very happy to just have a server for the USSR vs Germany on the map of the Caucasus (maybe on the map of Normandy instead of Kuban or Eastern Europe). But now there is nothing like that at all. Although there will be La-7 and there is already I-16 (this is already a lot by the standards of the DCS of the world). In addition, there are Thunderbolts with official skins of the USSR (thunderbolts were used by the Northern Fleet of the USSR in reality). There is even a mosquito with official skins of the USSR, to some extent they could replace the Pe-2 or Tu-2... By the way, there are also spitfires with official skins of the USSR, which of course will not replace Yak_9 or Yak_1, but can diversify the plain set P.S. Even for operation overlord there is no suitable historical set, so there is no point in giving up an interesting confrontation simply because "there is no suitable set or map" Edited May 8, 2023 by Red_Pilot
Red_Pilot Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 P.S. 2 There could be interesting missions for the I-16 on a large map with the sea. For example, reconnaissance, attacks of small ships, escorting ships, ground attacks...

The Caucasus map is a map that covers the Black Sea. Thus, it should at least have water where there is water and land where there is land. Near Istanbul in the Caucasus map (Which is just empty, dry desert anyway), we don't even have that. 2

Even by your definition, the Black Sea itself is complete. Where the Black Sea has water, there is water. Neither the Sea of Marmara nor the Augean Sea are part of the Black Sea. There was never any intention to model the topography (or civilization) other than what we already have. That land is there simply to provide the Black Sea’s boundaries. 15 hours ago, YoYo said: As I remember from some news, they are going to improve it and some work is underway https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/screenshots/1571/ Those details are already in the map.
