What we really need.

[Spudman]

You all know what we really need is a very well done AAA simulator. A simulator where you could operate various U.S., NATO, and Russian made anti-aircraft systems; everything from the Gepard, Vulcan, Shilka, and Tunguska, all the way up to the fixed positions such as the Patriot and the S-300 and everything in between. There have been a lot of ground and sea warfare games and sims. and many, many flight sims., but I don't recall any AAA sims. If you could find a good software developer that would invest the time and research it would take to produce such a sim., I think it would be a nice addition and a lot of fun.

Arma is quite good for AAA although the radar needs some work.:thumbup:

Unless you have aircraft flying over your area non stop it would be a very boring sim I think

Yes.

Standalone sim would be really boring, BUT implemented in DCS series would be really interesting IMHO, when you support your team from ground in Strela, TOR, hide behind buildings ect. But it won't happen ;]

[Peyoteros]

In other words we need a multiplayer sim with Battlefield2 variety of vehicles, detail level of DCS, map size of LOMAC, and graphics of Arma2... and super duper mission editor.

Yeah, you're right about that. The only way around that is to set up missions and campaigns, kind of like Borberro said. I guess it would be like flying an A-10 around and just hoping that you over fly a couple of tanks. But if you were traveling with a convoy or supporting armor, or even laying in wait because intelligence designated an area as a known flight path for enemy aircraft, then you got a good sim.

AAA units aren't boring in Arma since as you can use them against ground targets as well although it would definately need to be part of an FPS to be playable.:thumbup:

Isn't that what Microprose wanted to do with it's Digital Battlefield Series that spawned ..... was it Falcon 3 or Falcon 4? I remember I bought the SU29 package for it as well
