Announcing Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 3

[159th_Viper]

I'm just happy that the annoying "shoot, shoot" sound has been removed \o/

 

That has always been an option you can turn off IIRC.

P.S. Now I've jinxed it. Please don't put that back in there.

You have been inspecting the sim to little Pyro ;)

[Frogisis]

I am looking forward to using that air superiority fighter to blow up other air superiority fighters.

 

There can be only one.

Is that what radio assists did? I always assumed that it did something different, like allowed my wingmen to be useful or something. So that explains why I don't get that annoying voice in multiplayer missions..

[159th_Viper]

Aye - that's it.

[RIPTIDE]

I heard they're polishing the damage model for the ga... ehh... A-10C and the thing they call the "Pony". They're going to look great falling out of the sky in bits. Can't wait. :thumbup:

[GGTharos]

It isn't terribly obvious against a non-maneuvering target. In any case, it will be pretty hard to tell the difference in certain situations.

 

Probably early beta because I dont detect MAFM in those sidwinders.

[Pyroflash]

Aye - that's it.

 

Well I've turned it off now, thanks much :thumbup:

[Kuky]

Good time for a teaser but I want MORE!!!

 

And that F-15 pit sure looks impressive, I so wish for same in Fulcrum and Flanker... soon aye?

[slowhand]

More stuff soon...Mongo like more Stuff soon..:music_whistling::D

[Mohamengina]

Thank you for reassuring me that it's coming.

 

However, that still doesn't tell me WHEN.

 

That video made my pants cry.

[Prophet]

Is the MFCD going to have more pages? Not sure if it should, but I love the map in the A10C.

I think there are 18 AESA Eagles at Elemendorf.

 

IIRC, I've read that some (or most?) of the AESA ones from Elmendorf were since moved to Kadena as there's a plan to have 54 of them stationed there.

 

There's a nice article here..

Yes, that is the size of that squadron. I think it's between 18 and 24 usually for USAF FS's. As I mentioned they seem to get toys first, but AESAs (along with other things, these are entire upgrade suites in this case, AFAIK) have been getting retrofitted to many eagles for a while now. It's an on-going upgrade.

 

And it's an ongoing struggle for the program funds, too :)

[Boberro]

F-15's pit seems to be really nice. Time for other pits! Su-25T, Su-33 are waiting.

[sotosev]

Thanks Wags. That was a good one;)

Chasing an enemy with a mig 29 in your six ...:noexpression:

What about the su's and mig's, this seems more a FC of F15, "classic Flaming Cliffs", What are the new features ...?

Are you asking for new features like 6DOF and full 3D Cockpit of the F-15C with an DCS A-10C adopted Grafics environment, or what are you referring to?

I think those additions are pretty much worthy features

[manfrez01]

^^Hello.

 

It seems my reputation, not precede me in this case.

If there? a club that hates the f-15, I would be the first delegate:D

Flaming Cliffs is characterized as a complex product as it has more of a plane with its own flight model. Anyway, I see no information, and less any pre-view of MiG's or Su's as I said above.

When speaking of "new features" means, what, which?. -

You got that?:noexpression:

Once features are confirmed to make the release they'll be announced. Announcing something that later has to be taken out always leads to a meltdown here. You will have to be a bit more patient.

it appears to me that this simulator becoming a good simulation of USA engaging Iraq where we have the new DCS fighter F-15s/F-18s or F-16 VS Mig-21s. We might even see GG appear on public servers then since its more realistic scenario :)

I just want to know how your going to pretend thats not an inflamatory post after getting flak over it.

Its only my frustration over the DCS situation.

Im glad that some f-15 pilots do see the point of working on both sides rather just one. That is what made this simulator stand out from others.

So since it was originally slated for a September release, does this mean it's going to be coming out soon? Or has it been indefinitely delayed pending the inclusion of new features?

Can't answer that to be honest, work continues as before though.
