moonbeast Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 hello all when 1.2 is finished and "tank killers" is started what aircraft is it going to fielded, ive heard A10,Su25,F16 ????? what other types are there going to be, can i suggest a MIG 27 and the Sepecat Jaguar aircraft both similar in the role they undertake, also it would appeal too they russian community (i think) as they are both strike/cas orientated and very original as no one to my knowledge has made a combat simulator depicting these, as flight simulators these days seem to be depicting the same flyable aircraft over and over again cheers moonbeast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VapoR Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Amen!!! SECONDED!!! These 2 planes would be a PERFECT fit for Lock-on. Also, I guess it wouldn't be that hard to do the MiG-23 if the 27 is being done . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Legionnaire Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Can't say I'm much into the Jag, but either the MiG-27 or the Su-17 would be great additions, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGTharos Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I'll fly that with you any day, IK :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperKungFu Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 AFM for flanker :icon_supe [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EVIL-SCOTSMAN Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 F-111F. :icon_supe you do know there ia a vark mod made by alfa that is available, but its ai only if i remember. f111 is the uber of uberest of aircraft, and its even got airconditioned ejection. thats what you call eject in style.

GGTharos Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 AFM for flanker :icon_supe Sure, when every other fighter gets AFM.

Bublik Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Sure, when every other fighter gets AFM. LockOn Flankers look like old forgotten toys now. They have got the worst 3D-models (even some bombs have more polygons, I believe), and no hope for AFM or any major update in a decade or so (like, probably never). Is that fair to an aircraft that made ED a success some 10 years ago? :D :icon_jook WR=210=Vladimir http://lockon-vpg.nm.ru http://whiteravens.nm.ru http://white-ravens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, the flanker pilots would be crying when the AFM was on and other fighters didn't have it ... harder to evade missiles, sluggish handling with AG ordnance, unlike now, etc etc. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
192nd_Erdem Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Just put AFM for all Russian planes and add clickable pits. For western,I don't care :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Yeah, and I could say I don't care about the Russian birds, just leave'em behind. You either care abotu the whole sim or you don't.

MBot Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Go Jag, Go !!! The Jaguar and the MiG-27 would indeed be a quite cool choice. Both planes are from the same era and fullfill a very similar role. And the CAS and strike missions were always among my most favourites. The big question of course is if there is enough open information about the Jaguar. GB and France have usualy been quite tight lipped about their warplanes. But for the MiG-27 I guess ED would not have much problems to get the needed documentation. So: Go Flogger, Go :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope...I didn't know that. f111 is the uber of uberest of aircraft, and its even got airconditioned ejection. thats what you call eject in style. I agree :D...not to mention the fact that it has quite a reputation as a tank killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just care about the Russian part of the sim,which have been the focus point of the game since "Flanker 1.0".This sim is not meant to be "Western" from the start ;) Western birds seem unfinished and unnecessary for me,I'm happy as long as they're modelled as good AI opponents :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldcrew Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 what's so hard about upgrading the models for the other planes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 what's so hard about upgrading the models for the other planes? It takes long time to get the relevent flight datas, I think. You don't build an AFM out of nothing. As far as originality goes, I think 1 of the important features ED should absolutely NOT left out is LUA scripting. We need waaaayyyy more game-impacting LUA function. Not only positions and status reports, but being able to create units on the fly, etc... THAT would be a unique feature in combat flight simulations to date. Forget about DC, LUA is the key :P Whisper of old OFP & C6 forums, now Kalbuth. Specs : i7 6700K / MSI 1070 / 32G RAM / SSD / Rift S / Virpil MongooseT50 / Virpil T50 CM2 Throttle / MFG Crosswind. All but Viggen, Yak52 & F16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, where LOMAC smokes Flanker is that there are now both sides to fly against each other. Your "meant to be" comment is conjecture and prejudice. It's not based on fact. Western birds seem unfinished and unnecessary for me,I'm happy as long as they're modelled as good AI opponents AI in every sim/game/rpg aren't nearly as smart as a human opponent. You remind me of the guys who play only coop with FPS games because human players are too hard to play against. You're way off base, and your comments reflect only your selfish preferences.
