cichlidfan Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 What kind of missions are people thinking of making? Kinda hard to imagine a whole enemy army in the vicinity of nevada, but maybe some terrorist threats is believable. If you are not near a major city, how will you know it is Nevada?

camsr Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Failing to be funny about this, but everytime I look at the map :( While I do look forward to it, I also do hope there will be some other regions soon.
Exorcet Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 What kind of missions are people thinking of making? Kinda hard to imagine a whole enemy army in the vicinity of nevada, but maybe some terrorist threats is believable. Cold War (nuclear missile stockpile depleted by treaty, before a specific event suddenly turns the Cold War powers hostile to each other) Fictional 20th century history (Canada and/or Mexico+SA fall to communism during the Great Depression, ally with USSR against US) Red Flag Terrorism Drug Trafficking UFO interception (literal UFO) UFO interception (aliens?)

camsr Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Now there's a helluva idea UFO crash lands in Nevada desert, entire world converges on crash site in attempts to recover alien artifacts. Constant bomber threat to American airfields in the vicinity or something (some planes aren't in the game yet!) The battlelines between other nations would be on American soil outside the map. Somewhat random belligerence by random enemy nations. And only a limited stockpile of bombs!
Python Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Always loved that UFO mission in FSX Acceleration, I'd love to see something similar but on a grander scale. Maybe even full on invasion :music_whistling: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Moving troops to to Las Vegas, in order to participate in poker tournaments. :D 3. Lots of training missions in order to familiarise myself with the surrounding area and be ready for ''the big moment''.

NorCal Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 There is more than desert & Las Wages in NV.

howie87 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I'd like to see some progress being made on Nevada. I get that there probably isn't much to show but it would be nice to get an update at least. Hope it isn't going to be as dissapointing as Duke Nukem Forever because it's taking almost as long!
Kaktus29 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 i know i'll be training with the Ocean's 13 on making sure i keep my Huey engine running as i park in front of the Bellagio .. )) lol
The_Pharoah Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 hows about getting rid of Las Vegas and changing the landscape to resemble Iraq or Afghanistan? maybe that might save on dev time.

VincentLaw Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 hows about getting rid of Las Vegas and changing the landscape to resemble Iraq or Afghanistan? maybe that might save on dev time.From what I have seen, Nevada is basically finished. Now they are working on EDGE integration and testing. So scrapping Las Vegas would actually increase dev time. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

I to would like to hear something about Nevada, but that info is about as secret as Area51 it seems. I just wish we knew where we were with it instead of hearing nothing.

Lusik Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Personally I look forward to Nevada terrain. Flying training missions in A-10 in Georgia has always seemed a bit awkward. ;) http://eplatanie.wordpress.com/
Trooper117 Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 I'll be interested to see what the terrain looks like with EDGE, but I wish they were producing a new theatre map instead :)

mr_mojo97 Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Well, I love the current map, there are lots to do and see and gives countless mission types. Although I'm still looking forward to the Nevada map and from the photos I've seen so far still looks amazing, I think I would still prefer a region similar to the current map but with better graphics MSI M5 z270 | Intel i5 7600k (OC) 4.8GHz | MSI GTX1080ti Gaming X 11Gb | 500gb Samsung 970 Evo NVME M.2 (DCS World) | 500gb Samsung 850 Evo SSD (OS and Apps) | 32Gb 2400MHz DDR4 - Crucial Ballistix | Be Quiet Silent Loop 240mm | NZXT H440 case | Thrustmaster Warthog - 47608 with Virpil Mongoose joystick base | MFG Crosswinds - 1241 | Westland Lynx collective with Bodnar X board | Pilot's seat from ZH832 Merlin | JetSeat | Oculus Rift S | Windows 10 | VA |

Questions 1 and 3 are related, no collision model on trees, no real reason to pay. I'm tired of being hit by SAMs behind trees that can see and shoot you while you can't see them (Mainly in the blackshark. Although it would make low level ops available with the hog too now that I think about it)
ED Team NineLine Posted February 19, 2014 ED Team Posted February 19, 2014 Questions 1 and 3 are related, no collision model on trees, no real reason to pay. I'm tired of being hit by SAMs behind trees that can see and shoot you while you can't see them (Mainly in the blackshark. Although it would make low level ops available with the hog too now that I think about it) They said tree collision would be looked at and once its in the sim they would determine if its viable or too much of a performance hit, I am sure they would like it as much as you and me.

If FSX could do it 10 years ago, I'm sure there's a way- even sucky collision models where a whole forest is rendered as 1 piece would be better than this silly X-planish arcade model. I love the sim, don't get me wrong. But how can they model every switch in the cockpit, but you can fly through trees as if they weren't even there. Even war thunder can do it
