Buffallo Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Is there any where, docs or videos that I can learn ATC speak I was doing the training landing mission, contacted ATC and couldn't understand any of it. Can anyone please help Thanks Buffallo
WarriorX Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I would suggest doing a quick search on Google, and if that does not help, then post your questions here.

Headspace Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 The ATC is not a very close match to how it is in real life. It is simplified. Are you looking for a glossary of terms?
gmohr Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 The ATC is not a very close match to how it is in real life. It is simplified. This ^^^. Very simplified in fact. It's my only real complaint about DCS.

-NFlight- Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 The conversation is also still backwards when talking to ATC. The Tanker and AWACS are correct but for whatever reason they would rather work on complex changes to irrelevant F-18 textures instead of just moving a couple of variables around to make the dialog correct... ~shrug~ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win7 x64, Intel i7-970 6 Core, 12GB, ATI 5970, TrackIR 5 w/Clip, TM Warthog, Saitek Combat Pedals
Buffallo Posted June 30, 2011 Author Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks for all your replies, they were very helpful Buffallo
BBQ Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 as was your indication as to what particular part you don't understand.
GGTharos Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Yeah, because the artist working on 'irrelevant F-18 textures' would also happen to be thle guy that does the radio/comm code. I love the smell of logic fail in the morning. Please keep such baseless accusations to yourself next time. The conversation is also still backwards when talking to ATC.

Irregular programming Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Yeah, because the artist working on 'irrelevant F-18 textures' would also happen to be thle guy that does the radio/comm code. I love the smell of logic fail in the morning. Please keep such baseless accusations to yourself next time. I thought this Ed guy was doing everything..? :huh:
PeterP Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) I thought this Ed guy was doing everything..? :huh: No - there is no "ED guy" ! The truth is that Mr.ED has hired well trained monkeys . They work for cigarettes and a banana from time to time. The good thing: They are not specialised in one position - you can swap them if you need more monkeypower. But unfortunately this is also the downside! So this is also the main reason why we see so many at the forum that know it better how Mr.ED should do the work. But the Monkeys try hard to become more efficient! Edit: Where I got the information from you ask? I will tell you: my co-worker was employed by Mr.ED until last year. He wanted apples and oranges instead of bananas - so he get fired... and on top of that he is a non-smoker... Edited July 1, 2011 by PeterP
gmohr Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 You will refer to him as "Mr" Ed, from now on ;) 1 "The defense dept regrets to inform you that your sons are dead because they were stupid..." :bomb: System: i5 2500K @ 4.7, AMD 6950 (unlocked), HP ZR30w, TM Hotas Warthog

If the next jet is not a DCS Hornet, kindly tell this fellow to drop the pretty (and irrelevant) textures and fix the ATC because it is a living breathing CLUSTER FECK. A blind monkey hanging from a 10 cent balloon could sequence jets better then the DCS ATC. Nothing personal, just brutal honesty.
