which comes first? Falcon 4.0 or Janes F/A-18? because i'm wondering after 10 years of these two sims, they still have dedicated groups(THS,FreeFalcon,etc.), can those DCS series sims live up to these sims too???

[kmcnelley1981]

@redz27m The next DCS project is said to be F/A-18C, should be interesting. Before you ask "Why the C model" I'd say there is to much unknown about the F/A-18 E/F/G to make the platform accurate enough for a DCS quality Sim. I am excited about DCS making F/A-18C but it's got to have the works, Carrier Ops and all.

@kmcnelley1981 Out of curiosity, do you have any references about the next DCS being the F/A-18? :) I know I read somewhere that they mentioned it was going to be a "popuar" fixed-wing U.S. fighter. I assume that means the F-15, F-16, or F/A-18.

Whether it is true or not is left to be told. One can only hope.

@kmcnelley1981 I'd say it's because the legacy hornets are better overall aircraft, honestly. I mean, cheaper, more maneuverable, faster accelerating/decelerating, smaller, easier to land on the boat. The Super Hornet seems kinda sluggish to me. Plus, VRS has already made a legitimate simulation of the Super Hornet.

[kmcnelley1981]

@beroth1 VRS have made a legitimate addon for FSX but is not a stand alone Combat Flight Sim as DCS BS / A-10C, Jane's F/A-18, F4AF... etc. VRS are limited to what FSX can provide. TacPack and FSX@War will certainly add a new level to FSX but it's still not at the same standard as old and current Combat Flight Sims. My 2c but cheers for comments and I hope you enjoyed the vid :D

Too bad EA killed Jane's. I would give my left leg for a current Jane's F-14D.

I say this because I'm looking at other Fighter sims to play and nothing comes close in terms of aircraft, ground units, physics and map edit.

[liveguns]

Lock On: Modern Air Combat is easily the best Fighter Jet simulator to date. It sucks that it wasn't / isn't as well known as the FSX series. Because if the Lock On team had more funds and incentive ( popularity ) they could have made another Jet Fighter sim with more aircraft and upgraded graphics engine that would blow any of today's flight sims out of the water. I want a new lock on damn it !

@kmcnelley1981 Good job, sneaky sneaky ;-) If this is true, this is great news :) I love the Hornet. It was the first plane I flew in a military flight sim (back during Graphsim days).
