Raven68 Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Might as well have called it DCS LOCKON: F-15C Promo Video :doh: Now give me some Russian campaigns and I'll shut my mouth :joystick: I pretty much gathered the same thing GF. Did you notice when the F-15 was taxiing and making a turn onto the runway that it look like it was skating? Anyways I am sure these things will get ironed out, but I do wish GA had gotten the go ahead to do the promo for this one.

Cali Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Maybe they didn't really want to show the other models since they don't come close to the F-15 and 6DOF. Some places use tricks like this to get people to buy stuff. Just think how many people might think all the jets look like that and have 6DOF and buy it? i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED

Some places use tricks like this to get people to buy stuff. Just think how many people might think all the jets look like that and have 6DOF and buy it? probably why simhq previews for fc3 was only the f-15c. "The art of simulation design is about understanding limited fidelity... ...compromises must be made. Designers have to consider cost vs. fidelity and processor time vs. fidelity. Additional trade-offs must be made between graphics, AI, flight models, number of units and more... ...never ask the pilot what he wants to learn because he too will end up building an airplane. Instead, ask the pilot what he needs to learn." -Gilman "Chopstick" Louie
Cedaway Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) FC3 promo video? What? We see exclusively the F-15C and its 6DOF Pit, there is just a Su-25 on taxi, then briefly aloft and shot down by a... F-15. We just see a Su-27 (external) shot down and the ending is : F-15, Su-27, P-51 and KA-50 in one DCS World. The Cake is a lie: If you buy FC3, you'll not receive neither DCS P-51 nor DCS BS! And what about Su-27/33, Mig-29's, A-10a promo? Waiting for the 'unofficial' FC3 promo by GlowingAmraam... EDIT: @Esac_mirmidon: "Just kiddin´ , it´s a good promo but.... Eagles everywhere..." Normal, it's developed by Eagle Dynamics :megalol: EDIT2: And the banner above the forum is still inviting to buy FC2...

Agg Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 This was a really bad promo if you ask me... ED should concentrate on developing great sims, and leave the movie making to Glowing Amraam.
Eight Ball Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Don't understand all the whining and bitching, it's not like if it was a surprise. Anyone who has the slightest clue about marketing knows that putting your best assets under the light is the right thing to do. What were you expecting ? Close up of the beautiful Su-27 textures ? But yeah...no offence to the video maker but GA should clearly be in charge of ALL ED promo vids. Maybe he wasn't available. Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery)
Agg Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Been som change in plans, it seems that ED wants to make the Official Flaming Cliffs 3 promo in-house. What does that mean for me? I, together with Binary Orchestra, will make the "Unofficial" promo for FC 3. Packed with all the juicy stuff you should expect! From his Facebook page...
Eight Ball Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 woh, that's such a bad move from ED. Again, no offence to the in-house movie maker but GA is so talented and has so much experience with the engine, I really don't get it. I'm sure GA vids bring a certain amount of customers to ED yes I'm talking out of my ass, don't ask for sources Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery)

Kuky Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 I don't find anything wrong with this video... GA is good, no doubt about it, but this one is not bad either. Maybe ED want to have more control about what can be seen in the video.

Kenan Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 ^^I agree with Kuky. I think you folks are a bit too harsh on the maker of this video. This is actually a very well done promo (not taking anything away from Cato). [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Commanding Officer of: 2nd Company 1st financial guard battalion "Mrcine" See our squads here and our .

manfrez01 Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) Very poor editing in the video, I did not like the promotion, I think the community is much higher in terms of what you expect. But it's just my opinion. Edited November 16, 2012 by manfrez01 [sIGPIC]http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/7877/72368977.jpg[/sIGPIC]
Hellfire257 Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Not a fan either. It feels unremarkable, and that's the last thing you want for something like this. Don't get me wrong, it isn't bad, just not memorable or something I would go back and watch again, like I would with GA's videos.
Suchacz Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Amateur work, my 12yo nephew can do a video like this. :huh: I would expect something more... ehm... bombastic, breath-taking :thumbup: 1 Per aspera ad astra!

aceflier Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Normally I'd show this stuff off to my clanmates as most of them have moved to bf3 and cod. :( I just cant link this video its not GA quality thats for sure. Awaiting GA's to maybe relight that fire. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Agg Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 I was thinking the same as aceflier, I was hoping to spread this trailer around the Norwegian flight sim community, but I can't really see it doing much good. GA's A-10 trailer I'm sure got a lot of new people interested in DCS, I can't see this trailer doing the same.
