Pigmachine Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Five will abort on take-off due to equipment malfunctions, three will fall to AMRAAMs before they ever get close, and the last two will try to run when they find out that there's an F-15 out there for every flanker and mig. How's the view from your parachute? :D No worries! I'm a ninja! But seriously, making one of the best A2A BWR fighter even better. Might virtually ground us Mig (not necessary the SU-27 ones) lovers. I ain't buying the FC3 to get the F-15.. I will never even set my foot in it. I buy it as support for the niche market (that by now seems to be the only market on PC!?) ....and as a Mig-29 flying kick out of it!, under-armed, low-fuel to boot! And It will be my pleasure to cruise around low, looking for BS2 (if staying german) or look for the a-10-C (of converting to sussia!) mainly to get a sneak lock on. Or just gun an enemy down! With him having no clue where that came from! While I giggle and find it in optics and leave no active radar trail, nor warning against oncoming 'Rocco-style' rape!

lunaticfringe Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Fixed :D Well played, sir. Well played. Although, make the first three fail for maintenance. The fourth and fifth? The fourth was the flight lead. "Two, you just got the lead on the right". "Aww, F* IT- FOX THREE!" Fifth was the aforementioned wingman. He decided he'd rather eject than admit he was blind (due to his own ineptitude).
winz Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 So FC3 ships with only one campaign and all campaigns from FC 2 are scrapped. If so, then it's a deal breaker for me. FC 2 has some great campaigns, and I have to wonder why weren't they converted. The Valley A-10C Version Revanche for FC 3

FC 2 has some great campaigns, and I have to wonder why weren't they converted. Just guessing... 1. It's beta so this may not represent what will be in the final product. 2. It took too much time. 3.

Witchking Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I think the mission editor from DCS World is vastly advanced compared to FC2. As a result, the campaigns have to be re-made from scratch...so there is no way to import it in. It just has to be remade. But I must say, I am a bit excited to see what this extra time has been used for...still wishing for a surprise extra 3d cockpit.

winz Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Just guessing... 1. It's beta so this may not represent what will be in the final product. 2. It took too much time. 3. You are the only one that liked the rest of the campaigns. :D 1) Last minute converted campaign can only result in inadequate testing. I don't want to edit every second mission because of a hastly conversion or missing assets (i.e. armed house missing causing errors for Deployment campaign in BS 2.0) 2, 3) ED knows how many of its customers never touch the MP. My guess, based on the arguments of ED tester team in MP issues threads, is that the SP only folk are considerable portion of their playerbase. So offering a good SP content should be their priority if they want to sell this product to those folks. I don't care about new effects, F-15C pit and AFM for missiles, if I have no content to enjoy these upgrades in. :) Edit: I think the mission editor from DCS World is vastly advanced compared to FC2. As a result, the campaigns have to be re-made from scratch...so there is no way to import it in. It just has to be remade. BS 2 has BS 1 campaign in it. BS 1 uses the same engine as FC2, so I think it isn't that complicated. Edited October 18, 2012 by winz 1 The Valley A-10C Version Revanche for FC 3
mwd2 Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 You can open FC2 Missions in DCS World Editor and change parameter, Flypath and everything else - but if the AI act in the same way under DCS World as it had work in FC2 - you need to test the mission.

USAFMTL Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I wonder if I am going to say too much here but I think I'll be ok. I just joined the test team a few weeks ago. Just to give you some of my background. I used to be a tester and mission maker for LOMAC years ago. Anyway, they (ED) use this bug tracker and its amazing the amount of work the test/dev team do behind the scenes, hell even what they do in a day. These guy are not sitting on their hands waiting to count the money (DE MONE, DE MONE) :D Viper, GG, Nate, paulrkiii just to name a few go through the testing like you were at Edwards AFB doing a pre flight on a new fighter. Its amazing, it really is. From a bug on the skin of the plane, to 3D model problems, to logic errors....they are on it. I just wanted to let you fellas know that. They are really working hard to make FC3 not only work but work right. Being the new tester, all I can say is FC3 is amazing. 1 [sigpic][/sigpic] US Air Force Retired, 1C371 No rank or title will ever be as important as the unit patch you wear.
hubson Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Well, I read they changed HUD. I hope the TTI for Russian birds is included.
