I keep seeing DCS: A10C in posts. Shouldn't it be DCS: Warthog (ie in the same vain as Black Shark).

 

Black Shark wasn't called DCS: Ka-50, was it now? :music_whistling:

 

I'll need to adjust my signature if we're switching to alpha-numeric designations. :D

 

...official game title please?

I've seen it called "DCS: A10-C Warthog" in most formal articles. That seems to be what they're calling it now, though it might also be that ED hasn't decided yet.

 

edit: got Wagsed :P.

Wags clarified it for you cctoide. He is the producer for the game. Since the Warthog is better known then the BS he may have wanted to put the model on there so people knew what kind it was. Plus they refine as they go and BS was first generation. Wags can you please clarify if A-10C is more GPU dependent because thats what I am hearing at the rumor mill. Also I am so happy that you are so involved with the community. I really feel like I have a connection to the game and that we are actually heard. Thank you for that. That said I have a question. In the future I am sure there will be many many DCS titles. What happens when we have to patch them. Are we going to have to download 6 patches? Are you going to release a shotgun patch (it spreads out and hits all of them). Are they all going to share a source where we need only one? Anxious to hear from you Wags take care.

I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original.

That sounds weird. Sure they don't mean that it'll task GPU's more than DCS:BS, as opposed to having the GPU as the main bottleneck? But obviously: disregard everything the rumor mill says since there's too much chinese whispers. I'd personally be surprised if anything but really old GPU's end up bottlenecking the application - just like with DCS:BS and FC2. (That said, you can bottleneck ANY application at the GPU through just giving it a high resolution and then apply 16x SSAA. :P )

 

Don't expect system requirement guidelines for some time though, since that is hard to quantify even internally as anything but "targets" until the product nears completion and all optimization work is done.

I think of all of them DCS Thunderbolt II sounds the best, and it hasn't even been considered.
I think it's been already considered. "II" can be confusing for some people who start their adventure with pc simulation and don't know it's A-10's official name - "there was DCS Thunderbolt I already"? Warthog is used more often by pilots. But does it really matter? If you ask me next DCS could be named F-16C Viper with no problem but I also rather prefer official names.

I like more Thunderbolt II than Warthog too.:music_whistling:

Only officials and the manufacturer (such as during the deployment) say "Thunderbolt II". Pilots say Warthog or just "Hog".

It's mixed up. You have the A-10C part, which is all correct and official, and then pilot jargon attached to the end. 'DCS: Warthog' and 'DCS: A-10C Thunderbolt II' are BOTH better alternatives. Come on ED, you have the programming genius but I have the titles. :D

 

Admit it. Yield to my impressive titles ED. :lol:

DCS: Warthog -> Which one of them?

DCS: Thunderbolt II -> What's that? Where the original?

DCS: A10C Warthog -> Oooh, sexy, the new Hog!

So, by this logic... the forthcoming Hind simulation could well be titled DCS: Mi-24F Bogeyman :P
