topol-m Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I don`t get all that secrecy. Does anybody recall when was DCS A-10C announced? How long after Black shark release? I`m trying to see some pattern here. Oh and moderators, stop the desinformation you cruel b..tards. :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
RogueRunner Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 If I recall correctly the A10 was announced before the release of BS! With the price of ammunition these days do not expect a warning shot.
topol-m Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 If I recall correctly the A10 was announced before the release of BS! Then what is different this time, to justify the secrecy and the announcement delay? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Dimebag1 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 How many pylons does it have? What's the measurement between the main landing gear? How long does it take to align it's nav system? Single or dual rudder? Vertical or angled? Can you pretty please answer one of these questions? Cmon :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
LawnDart Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 But if the next module is a F-16, and since it looks like most here played Falcon, most topics will be on "why things are not working the same as in Falcon". That's funny, but why would this be a bad thing? If they feed off the community there's a lot of experience to draw on there to get it right, in case the devs aren't sure themselves.

LawnDart Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Another minor point to consider. Thrustmaster would love it if DCS would do the F-16C .... since that would likely boost sales of their Cougar HOTAS. Love it or hate it .. but I think enough good points have boiled things down that in all likelihood it will end up being the F-16C. Actually, that aircraft is NEEDED here compared to the F-15C. The existing DCS aircraft cannot carry HARMs. Nor can the F-15C. And with more and more complex air defenses in missions being done by DCS, and by player-generated missions, we are going to need that capability for the SEAD role. As Panther already pointed out, the HOTAS Cougar is no longer in production... HOWEVER, given that the F-16C share the same stick handle as the A-10C, and the A-10C share the same throttle quadrant as the F-15... one has to wonder if there isn't something in the works between ED and TM for the next launch of DCS. It wouldn't require a completely new product from scratch... Just either a new TQS or F-15 stick handle, and you'd be all set to fly either the -16/-15 again with high end gear. The possibilities...:joystick: :music_whistling: Sorry, there's no -18 HOTAS AFAIK though... :cry: [sigpic]http://www.virtualthunderbirds.com/Signatures/sig_LD.jpg[/sigpic] Virtual Thunderbirds, LLC | Sponsored by Thrustmaster Corsair 750D Case | Corsair RM850i PSU | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X CODE | 32GB Corsair DDR4 3200 | Intel i7-8086K | Corsair Hydro H100i v2 Cooler | EVGA GTX 1080 Ti FTW | Oculus Rift | X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty | Samsung SSD 970 EVO 1TB NVMe | Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB | WD Caviar Black 2 x 1TB | TM HOTAS Warthog | TM Pendular Rudder | TM MFD Cougar Pack | 40" LG 1080p LED | Win10 |

vrv Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I could waltz into the ED Office and declare that they officially disclose and announce the next aircraft (F- whatever) by telling them that I am an Inquisitor of the Holy Orders of the Inquisition but that won't work. Instead someone get me Wags or at least Tharos so I can torture them by forcing them to listen to Justin Beaver and Hannah Montana for a week straight non-stop.
