Another random wish list

[Inseckt]

Today I really felt like doing my own wish list. I haven't been following this section of the forum much, so sorry if anything has been said before. Items are in no particular order. Items are for DCS in general, no particular module in mind:)

 

This thread is not meant to come across as "listen to my suggestion, because I think someone should care", I simply wanted to get it off my chest:)

 

1. huge improvements to ATC routines and interaction. I would like to hear communication between AI and ATC.

 

2. Weather. The dynamic weather is quite nice, but I still miss... what's it called?... that the wind picks up very much in a short interval before again settling to the mean strength, you know... It's very constant in a particular location as it is in its present form. Also rain and snow effects could use some plastic surgery.

 

3. Alot has happened to the arifields the last couple of years, but I want more in my greed. For instance, minvody has these cool looking flood light poles, so why don't they light up the tarmac at night? It could simply be a static light (sacrificing shadows for performance) and would add a lot of immersoin.

 

4. Integrated voice chat system. Kinda what TARS offers, but I would like to see this integrated in DCS.

 

5. Less rigid and scripted-like behaviour of FAC's. (might seem a bit vague this wish, but thats because it actually is)

 

6. I would write something about terrain, but I think EDGE is already working on that.

 

Thanks for listening, I needed that:) Merry x-mas!

I agree that DCS desperately needs more ATC chatter to liven things up.

Regardig number 5: perhaps they could add varying recordings so the exact text/speech is different each time. Having different voice actors in general would help as well.

My Wish list:

Aircraft to be added somehow either as static or AI:

U-2, SR-71, EC / RC 135, AN-2 Colt AI flyable, and other Soviet Bloc Prop aircraft from same time period.

 

On the ground:

More airfield ancillary gear IE Tow bars, steps etc, hopefully FCS heater's Mod as well, complete with the cloth target. Better lighting at ALL Airfields at night

 

Skins:

Better skins on various aircraft especially the C-17, a Medic marked Helicopter for primary countries, USA, Russia, Ukraine, Israel.

Camouflage skins on CH-53, UH-60, C-47

 

Other stuff:

The guns mounted on UH-60, C-47 actually fire if landing in a hostile environment, say within a 1/2 mile radius.

 

Ships:

Reworking of the skins on the Vinson and the Kuznetsov ( to look older and more used) with the ability to have a crew working in or around aircraft. Static aircraft allowed to park on both carriers.

 

And of course the satellite viewer back for better positioning when making missions

 

Thats all I can think of right now, will update

An engine that can distribute work to all cores of our CPU's

(Maybe with EDGE and Dx11 multi-threading capabilities. BTW, I don't even know if this is planned or even possible)

Just my 2Cts.

 

Oh, I also wish a Merry Christmas ED and everyone.

I also wish a merry christmas to eveyone

[Milene]

Dx11 support

[Jona33]

Coming with Nevada along with EDGE.

I'd like boeing 737,747,757...to be added ,because i want to intercept them , talk to their scared pilot and bring them down if necessary.

[Inseckt]

Yes! That would be great! If only just for the perception of beeing in an airfield where alot is going on. There are many airports IRL that supports both civilian and military traffic in parallel. Xania, Crete is one example....

[Inseckt]

Decided to revive my thread to vent this: I wish that SAM systems with multiple launchers, would act more tactical instead of firing all launchers at the exact same moment, and then you have three missiles flying in formation towards you.

[dooom]

In a similar vein, it would be great if Sam operators would be a little more sneaky by waiting longer before turning on their radars - from books I have read it wasn't atypical for an operator to hide from HARM shots by waiting untill targets were multitasking over a kill zone before surprising them

[LostOblivion]

Possibility to add player tower and approach operators to airfields in multiplayer.

Roads are populated, why not the bases? Why not ground crew?

OK, AI, pathfinding, logics,... I know it is barely do'able because we should need a NASA computer to run the sim but. Well, just dreaming. Maybe for DCS-F35 in 2024;)
